The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 398

On Isabelle's birthday, Celeste received a reminder from Trevor about their divorce.

How fitting.

Just then, Jason continued, "Mr. Fleming said if you're free on Monday, he'd like to meet at the courthouse at nine in the morning to handle the paperwork. Ms. Rodriguez, does that work for you?"

Celeste replied, "I'm free Monday morning."

"Alright," Jason said. "I'll let his lawyer know."

"Okay."

Aside from Jason's call, there were also several missed calls from Trevor.

He was likely calling for the same reason. So, she didn't bother calling him back.

She spent the weekend at the Rodriguez residence.

…

On Monday morning, Celeste drove out a little after eight.

When she arrived at the entrance of the courthouse, Trevor was already there.

She hadn't taken their marriage certificate with her when she moved out. So today, he'd brought both the marriage certificate and the divorce agreement with him.

Back when they registered their marriage, he hadn't even waited for her afterward—he'd left coldly, without a glance at their certificate.

So, naturally, Celeste had been the one keeping it. She had nearly forgotten where she put it. Yet now, for the divorce, he hadn't had to ask her at all—he'd managed to retrieve it on his own.

When she arrived, Trevor got out of the car and handed her the divorce agreement. "Do you want to go over it one more time?"

The marriage certificate in his other hand was open. Their wedding photo was clearly visible.

It seemed he had been looking at it just before she arrived.

Celeste glanced away without a word. She took the agreement, turned, and returned to her car to read through it.

By the time she finished reviewing it, it was just about nine. Celeste got out of the car and headed straight into the court.

"Alright." After a beat, he asked, "Are you still going to the Fleming Group?"

"Yes."

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Matthias smiled. "Alright, let's go."

…

20 minutes later, Celeste and Matthias arrived at Fleming Group. By the time they entered the conference room, Trevor and the others were already there waiting.

When he saw them, Trevor greeted them politely. "Mr. Yoder, Ms. Rodriguez, you're here."

Celeste and Matthias responded with quiet nods and took their seats.

The meeting started promptly.

Celeste was professional and focused throughout, and Trevor also spoke with a pleasant demeanor as he interacted with Matthias and the others.

There were quite a few people in the conference room, but apart from Matthias, no one knew that Celeste and Trevor—who appeared to have little to no personal connection—had, just that morning, been to the courthouse together to file for divorce.
