The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 404
"He's never shown up?" Kieran asked.
"Yeah." Another colleague chimed in, "That's why a lot of us think Ms. Rodriguez is probably already divorced. I mean, it's been more than half a year, and she hasn't even mentioned him once."
"Exactly."
That actually made sense.
If Celeste weren't divorced, would Caleb dare to pursue her so publicly?
Still, Kieran couldn't calm down. It had never crossed his mind that Celeste had already been married.
As he sat there in a daze, Celeste walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
He wanted to ask, "Is it true that you're married?"
But this was the workplace, and asking personal questions like that—especially of a superior—wasn't appropriate. It might be alright once in a while, but any more would be crossing a line.
Snapping back to reality, he just said, "It's nothing."
…
That afternoon, Celeste received a phone call.
After hanging up, before the end of the workday, she told Matthias, "I might only come in tomorrow afternoon. Can you attend the morning meeting in my place?"
"Of course." Then he asked, "Did something come up?"
"My mother's going to the hospital for some health checks. I want to go with her."
Matthias wasn't aware of Isabelle's worsening condition. He thought it was just a routine check-up. So, he said, "Alright. Go ahead. I'll take care of things here."
Celeste nodded and left the company.
…
The next day, Celeste, Betty, and Adeline all arrived early at the hospital.
Even at the hospital, they had to keep a distance, afraid Isabelle might spot them.
During the checkups, Isabelle would become inexplicably agitated, struggling wildly like a madwoman. It often took multiple medical staff to hold her down to get through each procedure.
"Mom, why are you at the hospital too? Are you sick?"
"No, I'm not sick." Celeste touched her forehead. "Do you have a fever?"
"I had a fever last night, but it's gone now." Then, without waiting for Celeste to respond, Jordyn hugged her even tighter and glanced toward the approaching Trevor.
She pouted. "Last night I wanted to call you and ask you to accompany me, but Dad said you were busy."
Celeste didn't look at Trevor.
"I'm indeed busy. But I'm glad your fever's gone." She paused, then asked, "Why come to the hospital, though? What about the family doctor?"
For minor illnesses, there was usually no need to bring Jordyn to the hospital.
At that moment, Trevor spoke up, "We came for a full health check-up."
Celeste heard this but didn't ask why they needed it.
Jordyn clung to her and said excitedly, "Mom, I don't have to go to school today. Can I go with you to visit Granny?"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Uhuh. And what, pray tell, is it that you know to be doing Trevor?...
Mr. Lincoln, you never raised your son. He is not a real man... When I see him, I just remember the line from the song that says "I guess no one ever told you how to be a real man."...
Did Trevor shut down the internet? If he does it, he's truly the biggest whore I've ever seen in my life... This guy raised my blood pressure throughout 800 chapters...
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....
