The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 468
As soon as Celeste spoke, not only Lilian, but Lennox, Jorge, and Miles were all visibly stunned.
Lennox's reaction was expected.
As for Jorge, he had previously looked into Celeste a little and knew her family background was relatively ordinary.
While the Rodriguez family's business had recently picked up, it still wasn't at the level where they could casually fork out several hundred million to buy a diamond, right?
Miles, for his part, believed he knew Celeste's situation inside out.
Given the Rodriguez family's current strength, even producing 100 million in spare cash would be difficult—let alone 500 million.
Although Trevor had once paid Celeste two billion in advance as a thank-you gift, the money had been used to help the Rodriguez family with capital turnover.
But even if the Rodriguez family business was doing better now, and even if she still had a large chunk of that two billion left, wasn't it a bit "too much" to casually spend this much money on a single diamond?
Thinking of this, he immediately whipped out his phone, excitedly messaging Trevor.
"When I saw your wife just now at the auction, I was still wondering what she was doing here. Now I get it…
"You know about the diamond being auctioned, right? The starting bid was 400 million, and she immediately raised it to 500 million. Is she seriously trying to buy that diamond? My god, she's gone cra—"
Before Miles could finish typing his message, someone bid 550 million.
Then Celeste spoke again. She directly said, "700 million."
Miles was speechless.
Even though he hadn't finished what he wanted to say, he still hit send and fired off the message to Trevor.
Tonight, everyone attending the auction more or less guessed that this rare diamond would end up going for no less than a billion.
But Celeste, every time she spoke, it was in leaps of 100 million or 150 million. In just three rounds, the bidding had already reached 700 million.
Trevor hadn't replied to his earlier message. But Miles couldn't hold it in anymore and quickly messaged him again.
"Your wife pushed the bidding to a billion. Damn, I think she actually wants to win that diamond. Does she like diamonds that much?"
This time, Trevor replied not long after. But it was just a single period character.
Miles wondered what the hell was that period supposed to mean.
At the start of the auction, quite a few people had been interested in participating. But from both an emotional and investment standpoint, once the price started climbing too high, many people chose to back off—they weren't going to chase it blindly.
Some were truly obsessed with diamonds. Many of them were even far wealthier than Celeste.
However, the wealth people saw in them wasn't necessarily theirs to control. Or even if it was, they didn't have the same freedom as Celeste when it came to how they used it.
So, even if they wanted to compete, due to various considerations, by the time the bidding price reached 1.6 billion, almost no one else remained in the game.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
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....
Wynn's reputation is over. I read all these chapters for this moment... I'm really glad that Matthias finally said everything at once. All thanks to the fool Quinton...
So we're going to keep going in circles atp,nothing was revealed that we didn't already know,I mean I would've at least liked to see Trevor's reaction to finding out his wife is the co-owner and coder to CUAP,find out who drugged them.Whats happening with the military blacksite,how come Celeste is so quiet she never stands up for herself. All we're getting is reaction's from side character's who don't matter...
Yes.. I'm looking forward to the upcoming chapters......
