Jordyn held Celeste's hand with one hand and tugged on Trevor with the other. "Let's go for lunch together!"
Celeste paused, intending to pull her hand away, but then she heard Jordyn suddenly say,
"I think it's been a really, really long time since I had a meal with both Mom and Dad."
Seeing how happy Jordyn looked, holding both her and Trevor's hands, and noticing how the other kids around them were all accompanied by both parents, Celeste hesitated.
She had insisted on keeping the baby when she got pregnant unexpectedly, and in the years that followed, Trevor had basically not been involved in Jordyn's life.
However, in the last couple of years, he started getting close to Jordyn. But it caused the mother and daughter to spend more time apart than together.
In other words, Jordyn had never truly experienced being in a "complete" family.
Celeste felt that in that sense, she had failed Jordyn. She gave birth to her, raised her—yet had barely given her a normal childhood...
No matter what kind of relationship she and Trevor might have in the future, they would always be Jordyn's biological parents.
Regarding Jordyn's future, even after the divorce, they would still have to sit down and discuss things together.
So having a meal together like this... wasn't a big deal.
"Mom?" Seeing she hadn't replied, Jordyn shook her hand and looked up at her.
Celeste came back to her senses, glanced at Trevor, wanting to ask what he thought. But just as she looked up, she saw he was already watching her from the side, as if he could read her mind.
He asked, "What should we have for lunch?"
Celeste looked away and answered calmly, "You decide."
Trevor nodded. "Okay."
A while later, they each got into their cars and headed to the restaurant.
When they arrived and entered a private dining room, Jordyn sat in the middle.
Trevor handed the menu to Celeste before asking, "Will you be going to Fleming Group this afternoon?"
"I have other things to do, I won't be going."
"Alright."
Trevor poured her a cup of tea.
Celeste didn't really speak to him much after that.
When they were done with the meal and Celeste was getting ready to leave, Jordyn tugged on her, asking her to stay a little longer.
Unable to resist, Celeste agreed.
Trevor seemed to have finished his work and wasn't in a rush to leave either. He joined them as they went to a game arcade.
Celeste didn't engage with him.
Trevor seemed to notice and didn't force it. Instead, he stood behind them, quietly watching as Celeste taught Jordyn how to play the games.
After playing for a while, Celeste remained expressionless, but Jordyn was worried her father might be bored.
"Dad, do you want to play with us?"
Trevor glanced at Celeste, who clearly wasn't paying him any attention.
He smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. I'm happy just watching you two play."
"Okay then!"

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....
