The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 474
Patricia and Erin didn't expect that Beck could so firmly and directly reject Linda right in front of them, although he had always seemed polite and respectful toward them.
Naturally, Patricia still hoped that Linda and Beck could end up together.
She smiled and tried to ease the tension, leaving room for the situation to be salvaged.
"This is indeed Linda's fault. We'll talk to her properly later. Sorry for disturbing your meeting. How about I have Wynn bring Linda over another day so she can apologize to you properly—"
"There's no need for that," Beck interrupted, clearly seeing through her intentions. "When it comes to matters of the heart..."
He paused for a moment, glancing subtly at Celeste before continuing after half a second, "...They can't be forced. Ms. Shaw and I are not suitable for each other. I hope you can help persuade her—not to waste her time and future over me."
With those words, what was left for Patricia not to understand?
She looked at Celeste, who had remained detached the entire time, calmly sipping her tea, and couldn't help but feel that Celeste was silently laughing at the Shaw family's humiliation.
Her smile grew a bit stiff. She forced a dry laugh and said, "You're right. I'll talk to Linda properly."
"Thank you, Madam Shaw," Beck responded politely.
Linda had already fled in humiliation long ago.
Once Patricia and Erin left and the door was closed again, Beck sat back down and said to Celeste, "Sorry for taking up your time."
Ever since he realized Linda had feelings for him, he had always made his rejection clear. But Linda had shown no sign of backing off.
He had tried to find opportunities to speak to her directly, but each time, before he could say anything, she would pretend not to understand and run off.
Today, he finally had a chance to meet with Celeste one-on-one, and he didn't want to waste time dealing with Linda's drama.
Linda's lack of restraint and willful ignorance had finally worn down his patience.
She had experienced it firsthand, and she knew very well that love truly couldn't be forced. Now, she was able to accept that truth with peace of mind.
And perhaps Beck had sensed that, which was why he had said it so plainly.
That was exactly Beck's intention.
Still, even though she had let go of the past, hearing someone bring it up again inevitably stirred some unpleasant memories.
So, he couldn't help but want to apologize.
Celeste didn't want to dwell on the past and changed the subject.
Beck looked at her flawless, delicate face. His heart stirred slightly, and he wanted to say something more but remembering that she hadn't officially divorced yet, he restrained the impulse and changed the subject too.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste 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......
I don't really understand the writer. Why are Trevor and Celeste silent now? Isn't it about them?...
