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.

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....
