The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 48
Chapter 48
“No. Mom, come home and then go with me! The hot spring retreat is so far away, and it’ll be so boring to go alone,” Jordyn said.
Celeste hesitated for a moment. Perhaps, she could go with Jordyn. “…Alright.”
YodaVision was currently developing a new app, and after dinner, Matthias called her to discuss some technical issues.
While Trevor and Jordyn were chatting in the living room, Celeste stepped outside to take the call. The conversation lasted half an hour.
Jordyn looked up at her and couldn’t help but say, “Mom, you’ve been getting so many phone calls lately. You talk for so long every night. You weren’t like this before…”
Hearing this, Trevor lifted his gaze toward her.
Peter also realized that.
After all, Celeste had never been someone who made frequent phone calls, let alone ones that lasted this long.
Could it be that she was having an affair? No… that couldn’t be, right?
Considering how deeply she felt for Trevor, that didn’t seem likely.
“It’s just about work,” Celeste said briefly. “I’m going upstairs to take care of something.”
“Okay…”
Celeste turned on her computer and began working on the files that Matthias had sent over.
Jordyn then returned to her room. Seeing that Celeste was busy, she didn’t disturb her and kept herself entertained. After taking a bath, she peeked in again.
Over the past few years, Celeste had never completely abandoned her field of expertise.
Whenever she had free time, she would design a few programs on her own. If Jordyn happened to be around, she would even teach her some basic concepts.
But back then, Jordyn was only around three years old, and she would often fall asleep while listening.
Now, as she watched from the side, Celeste didn’t stop her and simply continued working.
Jordyn couldn’t understand much, but she suddenly realized–wasn’t this similar to the kind of work Wynn did?
She watched for a while before heading to bed.
Celeste didn’t shut down her computer until she was done. Looking at the time, she realized it was already past 2:
00 am.
She had stayed in Jordyn’s room all night and hadn’t returned to the master bedroom. However, Trevor hadn’t reacted at all. Maybe he didn’t mind.
Maybe… Keeping her distance from him was exactly what he wanted.
The next morning, Celeste didn’t get up to make breakfast.
It was only when Jordyn woke up and saw her still sleeping beside her that she realized her mother had stayed with her the whole night.

Not wanting to wake her up, Jordyn got up quietly and left the room.
Seeing Trevor, she yawned. “Morning, Dad.”
Trevor hummed a response.
“Mom’s still asleep.‘
“Mm.”
By the time Celeste got up and had breakfast, Trevor had nearly finished eating. 1)
They barely spoke. Once he was done, he left the house.
Celeste left for work shortly after.
That evening, she got off work on time. When she came home, Jordyn was already waiting in the car. But Trevor wasn’t back yet.
They waited for more than 20 minutes before Jordyn frowned. “Dad is so slow.”
Celeste, however, remained calm, reading her book patiently.
Just then, the phone in the living room rang.
A few seconds later, Peter informed them, “Mr. Fleming said he’s tied up with something and won’t be able to return for now. He asked that you and Ms. Jordyn head to the hot spring retreat first–he’ll join you later.”
Celeste didn’t mind. “Got it.”
Trevor had said he would arrive later. But that night, he never showed up.

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....
