The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 499

A little over ten minutes later, Celeste went to the restroom with a few others.

She had just pushed the door open and, seeing someone inside, was about to apologize and leave when a hand suddenly covered her mouth and nose. Before she could react, her consciousness blurred.

The person who had subdued Celeste was quickly joined by a woman waiting outside.

Together, they made a hasty disguise for Celeste and supported her out of the restroom. After carefully avoiding YodaVision's people, they managed to get outside.

Just as they were about to put her into a car with others waiting, their path was blocked.

At that moment, Trevor's phone rang.

After listening to the caller, he rose and told the two executives beside him, "Something's come up. Let's catch up another time."

Jacob, seeing him leave, followed.

By the time they reached outside the bar, the people who had tried to take Celeste were already subdued.

Jacob was startled when he saw her unconscious, but he quickly grasped the situation.

What he couldn't understand was—when had Trevor arranged all this?

The men waiting outside stepped forward respectfully. "Mr. Fleming, we've stopped them."

"Mm." Trevor glanced at the unconscious Celeste, walked over, and without another word, took her into his arms and carried her to the car.

Jacob paused, then quickly followed him in.

No sooner had Trevor settled Celeste in the car than her phone rang from her bag.

It turned out the two engineers from YodaVision, who had gone to the restroom with her, grew worried after she didn't come out for several minutes.

"You—" Matthias tried to speak, but the line had already gone dead.

In the front seat, Jacob kept an eye on the back. Seeing Trevor still holding Celeste, he opened his mouth to say something, but the divider slowly rose, cutting off his view.

Jacob stared in surprise, at a loss for words.

The hotel wasn't far, but not close either. The journey took about half an hour.

Trevor carried Celeste out.

Jacob noticed her clothes were neat, only her lipstick had smudged slightly.

It looked as though she had been kissed—or perhaps it was just smeared during the struggle. He couldn't be sure.

Without explanation, Trevor took her straight upstairs. Jacob had no choice but to follow behind.
