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.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Another saviour debt?? Seriously?...
I just need an effing glimpse to what goes around in Trevor's mind. Author - do something about it please There is not even a single mention about what Trevor really wants - interested in Celeste? If yes, then why there is no reaction on seeing people courting Celeste...
I love the story bt really death slow... Y cant you post 5 to 10 chapters per day????...
This reads like a daily diary account...and not a story with a planned plotline. Author, we would share if you took the time to start developing the story, rather than dragging it out with outlines. no depth, no character development, not even the overused tropes are present, just a daily itinerary. We want you to do well..but you have to put the work in making it a viable story...
The storyline is moving painfully slow.. Will we ever get to hear Trevor's side of story? Currently the mixed signals from Trevor are just confusing and frustrating. He is using Jordyn to postpone the divorce and side by side ignoring Wynn to the level that he didnt invite her to the Fleming group banquet. But when asked about clarifying divorce to Jordyn, he is not doing so. Awfully frustrating...
Team beck or Caleb. Trevor has wynn saved his contact as 'babe', kissing her in office and spending nights with her. How in initial chapters Trevor pushed jordyn towards wynn without caring about a mother's feelings. Now he is two timing, suddenly interested in Celeste after knowing background and leaving wynnn behind. Spineless man. He knows cels history with her father, still chose to support them. I don't how people are rooting for cel and Trevor. I wish truth comes out. Cel deserves someone who loves her with whole heart. She thrives in her field. Beck saw cel when she was not famous. But Caleb is good option too. I hope Celeste grows spine starts to demand explaination for dragging divorce....
Author - dont you think the story has been dragged as is? Now, you want to include the angle of Wynn being pregnant as well? God, i really want to know Trevor side of story, why is he playing both sides?...
Are they going to compromise for Jordyns sake? I'll be sad for Celeste if that happens. Why is author giving mixed signals in almost every alternate chapter? Initially Trevor and Wynn were always appearing together along with huge PDA, then Trevor seems involved with Celeste - when she was under alcohol influence, then Trevor seemed to be ignoring Wynn - all the while divorce proceedings are still on and now Jordyn is getting depressed because of their situation. Feels like we are just roaming around the bush or the author is making us do that. Sigh!!...
I don't understand where this story is headed to.. I can't seem to know what Trevor is thinking, in late 500 chapters, he was seen dodging the divorce, ignoring Wynn and now at 624, he is planning on how to tell Jordyn about the divorce. This is messed up!...
My fav novel post us more chap per day...
