Perhaps sensing that Celeste didn't want to talk to him, after she finished ordering, Trevor brought up something about Jordyn.
"Jo will be going to another state next Thursday for an important competition. Will you have time that day?"
"Yeah, Mom, can you come with me to the competition?"
Since it was in another state, the round trip would take at least two days.
Right now, there were many urgent matters at YodaVision, Velotra, and Fleming Group waiting for her to handle, so she might not have time.
Celeste was considering it and about to speak, but before she could, Jordyn read her expression and already knew what she was going to say.
She couldn't even remember how many times Celeste had told her she was busy with work and promised to spend time with her "when she had the time".
In reality, even on weekends, and even when she went to visit her great-grandmother, and even when they lived under the same roof, Celeste still barely spent any time with her.
Thinking about this, Jordyn fiddled with the spoon in her hand, lightly rubbing it against the edge of the plate in front of her.
Before Celeste could open her mouth, she lowered her head and muttered, "A few days ago, when I went to another state for a training match, all the other kids had their moms and dads with them. Only I was..."
At first, when she learned that Trevor couldn't go with her, she didn't think much of it. After all, she often traveled with just the family's maids accompanying her.
But seeing other kids at competitions with their parents by their side, cheering them on like their own personal cheer squad, she suddenly felt lonely.
Realizing that, she had immediately called Celeste, but she didn't pick up. Luckily, Trevor did.
Hearing this, Celeste's lips parted slightly, but she couldn't say anything.
Her silence was as good as refusing, and Jordyn's nose began to sting. She pressed her lips together tightly, turning her face away so she wouldn't have to look at her.
In the past, no matter how busy she was, Celeste would still try her best to make arrangements and accompany Jordyn to competitions.
But now…
When she finally reacted, she instinctively moved to chase after her, but Trevor was faster.
Before Jordyn's hand even touched the doorknob, he had crossed the room in a few quick steps and bent down to scoop her into his arms.
Jordyn glared at him angrily. "Let me go."
Trevor, however, remained calm. He gently pinched her little cheeks. "When have I ever missed a chance to be with you when I had the time?"
Hearing that, Jordyn's sobs faltered slightly.
Nestled in his arms, she clutched his shirt without replying, but out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Celest,e who had stood up at first, but after seeing Trevor pick her up, hadn't moved from her spot.
She knew very clearly that the person who truly made her feel hurt and sad wasn't Trevor. She was only venting her anger at him.
The one she was really angry at... was Celeste.

Comments
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?...
