The next morning, Celeste and Betty went to the cemetery.
Looking at the tombstone, Celeste recalled the look of Lorenzo with his gray hair. Compared to him, the Rodriguez family members generally looked quite young.
When Isabelle got divorced back then, Lorenzo was only in his 50s, and there wasn't much gray hair on his head yet.
Celeste clearly remembered that less than a year after Isabelle's accident, Lorenzo's hair had turned completely gray.
He passed away from illness.
It wasn't until last year that she learned the illness was related, at least in part, to the long years of bottled-up grief and anguish in his heart.
If he hadn't fallen ill, perhaps he might still be alive today.
Betty's eyes reddened thinking of how, before he passed, he had still been worrying over his most beloved Isabelle; thinking of how, after so many years, Isabelle still hadn't managed to pull herself together and start anew as Lorenzo had hoped.
Supported by Ivan, she crouched down and gently caressed the tombstone. "Lorenzo..."
Perhaps she had wanted to say their precious daughter still hadn't recovered, that she had let him down.
But those words only came to her lips, but came out. She only stroked the tombstone in silence, tears sliding down.
Celeste's eyes grew red as she let go of Jordyn's hand and turned her face away.
Sensing the sorrow in the air, Jordyn lifted her gaze at Celeste, her eyes full of confusion. "Mom?"
Celeste shook her head and said nothing.
More than an hour later, they finally left the cemetery.
The Rodriguez family still had a few relatives and family friends in the area. Each year when they returned, they would usually visit them together with Betty.
This year, when they arrived at the Joulin family's residence, the family matriarch, Eleanor Fyre, who was about the same age as Betty, paused when she saw Jordyn.
"That granddaughter of the Locket family and her supposedly very capable boyfriend—apparently, their relationship has only grown stronger. A few days ago, both families even came back to Youtopia. From what I heard, the two are about to get married."
Normally, if someone mentioned the Shaws or the Lockets, Betty and Celeste wouldn't think much of it.
But today, with everyone already in a somber mood, they fell quiet when they heard it.
After a long silence, Betty said, "I know."
Eleanor looked worried. "I heard that the granddaughter's future husband comes from quite an extraordinary family.
"With those two families gaining such an advantage, once they've made connections in Baumond, they won't come bullying you, will they?"
For the moment, the Lockets and the Shaws still didn't dare to provoke them directly.
But if Wynn really married Trevor... Then, things would be uncertain.

Comments
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....
