Chapter 297
Chapter 297
That afternoon, Celeste was in the middle of a meeting when a call from Jordyn came through.
Without even thinking, she immediately declined it.
But the moment she hung up, Jordyn called again. Celeste frowned, but still didn’t answer.
This time, Jordyn didn’t call back.
Celeste continued with her meeting.
A few minutes later, her phone rang–this time, it was Trevor.
Celeste pressed her lips together and turned off her phone completely.
It wasn’t until an hour later, after the meeting ended, that she powered it back on.
As soon as she did, she saw a message from Trevor, “Jo fell down the stairs at school and was taken to the hospital.
Celeste froze, her mind going completely blank.
She grabbed her phone and bag and rushed out of the office, heading straight for the hospital.
Once there, she quickly called Trevor to ask which part of the hospital they were in. He answered almost immediately and gave her the room number.
When she reached the VIP ward floor, she pushed the door open without hesitation.
Inside, she saw Trevor sitting by the bed, and Jordyn lying there.
Jordyn’s face was pale, her head wrapped in bandages. When she saw Celeste, she brightened, even though she looked weak and drained. “Mom-”
Celeste rushed over. “How is she? What did the doctor say?
Trevor answered, “The doctor said it’s a concussion–not too serious.”
Celeste let out a breath of relief. “That’s good.”
Then Trevor asked, “Have you eaten?”
She hadn’t. The meeting had run late, and it was already past seven. Celeste shook her head.
Trevor didn’t say anything more–he picked up his phone and ordered food to be delivered.
Jordyn hadn’t seen Celeste in more than half a month. Now, she looked exhausted and listless. She lay in Celeste’s arms without saying a word.
Celeste gently held her. “If you’re feeling unwell, why don’t you sleep for a bit?‘
“Okay.” Jordyn murmured.
She held onto Celeste’s hand, closed her eyes, and lay down. But her brows were furrowed the whole time. It took nearly half an hour before she finally fell asleep.
Just then, the food Trevor ordered arrived. He said to Celeste, “You should eat something first.”
But Celeste didn’t accept it. “If I want to eat, I’ll order for myself.”

Trevor looked at her, but didn’t argue. Celeste picked up her phone and placed a new order on her own.
While Jordyn slept, Celeste sat quietly by her side.
Trevor seemed to have some business to take care of—he stepped outside to make a phone call and didn’t return for quite a while. When he came back, he sat down across from her.
It looked like he wanted to talk. Celeste noticed, but lowered her head to look at her phone instead.
Her posture clearly said she didn’t want to talk to him. Trevor saw that, smiled faintly, and didn’t say anything
more.
In the hospital room, they each sat in silence, doing their own thing.
As night deepened, Jordyn remained asleep. Trevor looked up at Celeste again and finally said, “I’ll stay tonight. You go home and get some rest.”
Celeste turned her head to glance at Jordyn. She said nothing–and didn’t leave.
Trevor looked at her and said, “Be mad if you want, but from now on, even if you don’t answer every call from Jo, at least pick up more often.”
What he meant was clear–no matter what, Jordyn was still her daughter. If something truly serious happened and she missed the call, it might be something she would regret for the rest of her life.
Celeste froze for a second–so he knew she had been deliberately ignoring Jordyn’s calls?

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
ok im done im not reading this trash anymore its repetitive celeste finally speaks and its less than 5 words.this isn't good at all and now we're getting the netizens pov but not hers. EVERYBODY HAS AN OPINION EXCEPT HER AND TREVOR...
I’m not liking where this is headed.. I’m getting the sense that the author is following the revenging husband storyline and Trevor did all this just to avenge his wife...
Isn't this a company that Celeste and Matthias work for? This will be a fatal blow to those scoundrels....
I'm so excited for tomorrow! I wonder what happened to Jo... What is the story behind that court summons?...
A court summons? Oh my God, what happened?...
Here we go again…drip-drop. One page a day instead of the promised 5 Chapters and even that stops suddenly so we never know if the story will advance. I swear this author is writing the new page on their lunch break and laughing at us when we get frustrated....
I feel like reading the novel from everyone else's perspective, but the main characters. There has never been a glimpse on Trevor's side of thoughts or intentions. He feels like a ghost in this whole storyline. Although i am glad that Mathias revealed the truth about Celeste, but it still feels empty without main character's thoughts or feelings or voices being shared....
Wynn's reputation is over. I read all these chapters for this moment... I'm really glad that Matthias finally said everything at once. All thanks to the fool Quinton...
So we're going to keep going in circles atp,nothing was revealed that we didn't already know,I mean I would've at least liked to see Trevor's reaction to finding out his wife is the co-owner and coder to CUAP,find out who drugged them.Whats happening with the military blacksite,how come Celeste is so quiet she never stands up for herself. All we're getting is reaction's from side character's who don't matter...
Yes.. I'm looking forward to the upcoming chapters......
