The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 33
Chapter 33
At that moment, footsteps were heard outside the door. Trevor had returned.
“Dad!”
“Hmm.” Trevor entered the room and headed straight for the bed.
Celeste noticed the situation and attempted to place Jordyn down to create space for Trevor. However, Jordyn was reluctant to let go, leaning into Celeste’s embrace while stretching her arms toward Trevor.
Trevor picked Jordyn up.
As he embraced Jordyn, his proximity revealed the distinct scent of a familiar male cologne. Yet, mingling with that fragrance was a delicate hint of a feminine perfume that caught Celeste’s attention. She had just encountered this very scent on Wynn during the dinner party earlier that evening.
Celeste averted her gaze and stood up, creating space between herself and Trevor until his scent faded completely from her senses.
Trevor gently rested his hand, adorned with an exquisite watch, on Jordyn’s delicate forehead and turned to Celeste. “What’s her temperature now? Has it decreased a little?”
Celeste relayed the doctor’s words. “Her fever has gone down, but it could rise again.“.
“Hmm.”
Trevor sat on the bed with Jordyn in his arms. She didn’t want to get down, but she frowned and said, “Dad, your coat is too stiff.”
He removed his coat and handed it to Celeste without a word. She instinctively accepted it, holding it close. It was only when the mingled fragrances wafted from the fabric that the harsh reality struck her. She and Trevor were about to get divorced.
In the past, she would have relished the joy of cradling his coat in her arms, cherishing it so deeply that she’d never want to part with it. But now, she set the coat aside casually and turned to Jordyn, saying, “I’m going downstairs to make some chicken noodle soup.”
Trevor and Celeste were both at home, and Jordyn was feeling significantly better. Upon hearing Celeste’s words, she nodded affirmatively. “Alright. Thank you, Mom.”
As Celeste smiled and walked out of Jordyn’s room, Trevor’s gaze lingered on the coat she had draped over the back of the chair.
Once she finished preparing the broth, Celeste moved on to prepare the remaining ingredients. 20 minutes later, she washed her hands and stepped out of the kitchen.
Celeste hesitated for a moment before heading upstairs. Upon reaching the second floor, she turned around and spotted Trevor at the end of the corridor, standing by the window.
He was chatting on the phone, saying, “The fever has gone down. Don’t worry.”
She pondered whether he was on the phone with Wynn and if Wynn truly cared about Jordyn’s well–being. Celeste turned away and made her way into Jordyn’s room.
Jordyn had fallen asleep after the drip, sweating heavily while Hannah gently wiped her forehead. As soon as Hannah spotted Celeste, she promptly vacated her seat and offered her the towel.
Hannah assumed that Celeste would handle Jordyn on her own, just as she always had in the past. After all, Celeste

had always taken care of both Jordyn and Trevor by herself.
Celeste shook her head. Hannah was momentarily stunned but quickly moved on and carefully changed Jordyn into dry clothes.
Celeste settled onto the couch, and once Hannah had finished, she inquired, “Has the doctor left?”
“Yeah.”
“What did the doctor say? Will the fever return?” She was wondering whether to stay here.
“The doctor said it probably won’t return.”
“That’s good.” Given Jordyn’s recovery, it seemed likely that she didn’t need to remain here overnight.
The chicken noodle soup simmered gently in the pot. After a while, she went downstairs. Hannah was in the kitchen.
Hannah said, “I’ll finish up. You look tired, Mrs. Fleming. Take a seat and rest.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
I know everyone will not agree with me and I also know that Trevor is a trash and all but I want Trevor and Celeste to get back together. They should be the end game and for that to happen Trevor should start working hard for that second chance....
So we're going to go on for another 15 chapter's about jordan's temper tantrum with neither of the parents asking her what's wrong..stop milking it. The only reason i'm still reading is because i cant leave a book unfinished. What I'm pissed about is the book started with promise and turned into a circus....
The story should just come to an end and the writer should give their reader the closure they deserve. There's no point in keeping the story going. It's been the same since the start. Not has changed. The initial story plot was, that Celeste and Trevor are getting devorce and still after 800 + chapter, they are still heading for a devorce....
Don’t Shaws and Lockets reflect ever on themselves? Every difficult situation, they look forward to Wynn to ask for Trevor to help. Initially the focus of the novel was on how Wynn is so accomplished blah blah and now - she is just a useless person, incapable of anything. Irritating storyline...
I'm starting to get bored and I can't predict exactly where the story is headed....
Beck being the only actual adult to ask a child what’s wrong...
Can we get to the point its stagnant and I am unimpressed,I don't care about the company being in trouble nor the inner thoughts of others. Come on now....
Its a good thing both jordan parents are loaded. They going to spend a lot for Jordan therapy. 😂...
Wynn has no shame. And keeping the staff well beyond their work hours is an a-hole move....
I am again fed up with the storyline..it is just exhausting to keep reading only one side of story - where people are living in their own righteous bubble and assumptions....
