Monday morning, just as Celeste arrived at the office building downstairs, she bumped into Kieran, who was also arriving for work.
Kieran smiled as he said, "Morning."
Celeste responded, "Morning."
As soon as she spoke, she caught sight of Caleb nearby. Seeing him made her pause slightly.
Kieran noticed Caleb as well and frowned in displeasure.
Caleb didn't pay much attention to Kieran and walked straight over to Celeste.
"I got home early yesterday morning. We haven't seen each other in a while, so I thought I'd come by and say hello."
Caleb really had come just to see her. Her attitude had been clear all along, so he didn't want to make her uncomfortable or annoy her.
He added, "Go ahead with your work. Don't mind me. I'll leave in a bit."
There was honestly nothing more Celeste felt needed to be said between them. His sudden appearance had left her at a bit of a loss for words.
Since he said that, she didn't stand on ceremony. She nodded and turned to head upstairs.
Kieran glanced at Caleb before following behind Celeste.
Caleb watched her retreating figure. After a long moment, he turned and returned to his car.
There was a bouquet of flowers in the car.
He had originally planned to give them to Celeste, but given the way things looked now, if he actually brought them out, she'd probably be even more put off and want to avoid him.
Thinking that, Caleb gave a helpless laugh.
…
In the elevator, Kieran stood beside Celeste and pressed the button.
Seeing how he was silently watching her, Celeste looked up and asked, "What is it?"
Kieran shook his head. "Nothing."
But he couldn't hold it in and finally asked, "About Mr. Jennings... Does he often ask to meet with you?"
Celeste replied, "No."
Since this was the first time he had asked her a personal question, she didn't feel annoyed by it and answered directly.
"I haven't officially divorced yet. How could I consider him? Besides, I'm sure I don't have any romantic interest in Mr. Jennings."
Kieran had thought she was already divorced.
Hearing this, he froze. "You... You're not officially divorced yet?"
Celeste shook her head and said, "Not yet."
Just as she finished speaking, the elevator arrived.
Celeste stepped out and headed straight to her office.
Kieran stood there watching her figure retreat, momentarily blanking out. Then something suddenly clicked.
Could it be that the reason Beck never made a move on Celeste wasn't because he gave up? But because he knew she wasn't officially divorced?
Or... Was it because Beck knew who her husband was?

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Another saviour debt?? Seriously?...
I just need an effing glimpse to what goes around in Trevor's mind. Author - do something about it please There is not even a single mention about what Trevor really wants - interested in Celeste? If yes, then why there is no reaction on seeing people courting Celeste...
I love the story bt really death slow... Y cant you post 5 to 10 chapters per day????...
This reads like a daily diary account...and not a story with a planned plotline. Author, we would share if you took the time to start developing the story, rather than dragging it out with outlines. no depth, no character development, not even the overused tropes are present, just a daily itinerary. We want you to do well..but you have to put the work in making it a viable story...
The storyline is moving painfully slow.. Will we ever get to hear Trevor's side of story? Currently the mixed signals from Trevor are just confusing and frustrating. He is using Jordyn to postpone the divorce and side by side ignoring Wynn to the level that he didnt invite her to the Fleming group banquet. But when asked about clarifying divorce to Jordyn, he is not doing so. Awfully frustrating...
Team beck or Caleb. Trevor has wynn saved his contact as 'babe', kissing her in office and spending nights with her. How in initial chapters Trevor pushed jordyn towards wynn without caring about a mother's feelings. Now he is two timing, suddenly interested in Celeste after knowing background and leaving wynnn behind. Spineless man. He knows cels history with her father, still chose to support them. I don't how people are rooting for cel and Trevor. I wish truth comes out. Cel deserves someone who loves her with whole heart. She thrives in her field. Beck saw cel when she was not famous. But Caleb is good option too. I hope Celeste grows spine starts to demand explaination for dragging divorce....
Author - dont you think the story has been dragged as is? Now, you want to include the angle of Wynn being pregnant as well? God, i really want to know Trevor side of story, why is he playing both sides?...
Are they going to compromise for Jordyns sake? I'll be sad for Celeste if that happens. Why is author giving mixed signals in almost every alternate chapter? Initially Trevor and Wynn were always appearing together along with huge PDA, then Trevor seems involved with Celeste - when she was under alcohol influence, then Trevor seemed to be ignoring Wynn - all the while divorce proceedings are still on and now Jordyn is getting depressed because of their situation. Feels like we are just roaming around the bush or the author is making us do that. Sigh!!...
I don't understand where this story is headed to.. I can't seem to know what Trevor is thinking, in late 500 chapters, he was seen dodging the divorce, ignoring Wynn and now at 624, he is planning on how to tell Jordyn about the divorce. This is messed up!...
My fav novel post us more chap per day...
