The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 476

Celeste and Trevor walked side by side out of the hospital room. After they had gone a fair distance, Celeste took the initiative to speak, "You can say what you want now."

Trevor turned his head to look at her. "Grandma's condition hasn't stabilized yet. I'd like to postpone the divorce for a few more days."

Celeste didn't look at him. Hearing this, her expression showed no surprise.

After a moment of silence, she said, "Got it."

"Thank you."

As she was about to walk away, Trevor added, "Is there anything you want? As a token of gratitude, I can help you with anything—or grant you a wish."

Celeste paused slightly at that, but without turning around, she replied calmly, "It's fine. You can't give me what I want."

After saying that, she felt her words might be misinterpreted—that he would think she meant she wanted his love—so she added, "I don't mean what you think."

Trevor chuckled at her words. Standing just two steps behind her, he looked at her profile and said, "How do you know what I think?"

Celeste didn't know what he had interpreted her words to mean. Judging by his tone, though, he didn't seem angry.

Whatever he thought she meant, she didn't intend to explain further. So, she walked away in silence.

Watching her back as she left, Trevor called out, "Then let's just say I owe you a favor?"

Celeste didn't stop walking. "Suit yourself."

…

That night, the news that Martha had woken up and that the divorce between Celeste and Trevor had been delayed again reached both the Lockets and the Shaws.

Patricia said, "It's better that Mrs. Fleming Senior woke up than remained in a coma. Now that she's awake, the divorce between Celeste and Trevor is that much closer. No matter how you look at it, it's a good thing."

Linda and Ruby silently agreed, even if they didn't say it aloud.

Linda, however, had been in a low mood lately due to being publicly rejected by Beck in front of Celeste a few days ago, so she didn't chime in.

Wynn felt the same way.

In fact, compared to everyone else in the Lockets and the Shaws, she was the most eager to see Celeste and Trevor officially divorce.

But even with her impatience, she could only accept it when Trevor chose to delay the divorce again for the sake of his grandmother.

Martha waking up should have been something that made her happy—at least from any reasonable perspective.

But then she heard that Celeste would be going to the Fleming Group tomorrow…

Last time, Celeste had only briefly showcased her skills at Fleming Group and already gained the recognition of the R&D department's core team—including Trevor himself.

If she showed up again and once more demonstrated her professional abilities—and if Trevor saw it…

But not everyone had access to their conference room.

Celeste said nothing in response.

The meeting continued.

After Celeste finished another round of explanations, Trevor still showed no intention of leaving.

Just then, someone glanced outside the glass wall and leaned toward him to whisper, "Mr. Fleming, Ms. Locket is here."

Trevor heard and retracted his gaze from Celeste, looking out toward the conference room entrance.

Wynn was indeed standing just outside the door.

Others in the room also noticed her.

Since they were having a break, someone gossiped in a low voice, "Mr. Fleming's girlfriend came to the office to find him again."

Celeste overheard the gossip but didn't respond.

Seeing Wynn, Trevor stood up and left the conference room.

Walking toward her, he asked, "Didn't you say you had something to handle at InnovaTech? Why did you suddenly come over?"
