Beck nodded. "I've been here for a while."
Then his gaze fell on Celeste and on the telescope beside her. "Doing some stargazing?"
Celeste hummed a reply.
Beck looked genuinely interested. "What are you looking at now? Mind if I take a look?"
Celeste turned to Kieran and said, "It's not my equipment, it's—"
But Kieran's expression had already gone back to normal. "If you're interested, go ahead."
Beck smiled. "Thanks."
He'd handled telescopes before, though not often. As he looked through the eyepiece, he asked, "What's that red patch in there?"
Celeste replied, "A hydrogen cloud."
"Which galaxy's hydrogen cloud?"
The questions Beck asked were fairly basic, beginner-level stuff. But Celeste didn't show a trace of impatience, answering each one calmly.
Kieran, however, watched quietly, his expression unreadable.
Since Caleb, Trevor, and Beck's companies all had business ties with YodaVision, Beck's coming over to greet Matthias and Celeste didn't seem unusual—Caleb thought he was just being polite.
But Kieran knew that until today, Celeste had no idea that both he and Beck liked her.
And since she didn't know, and Beck clearly hadn't told her either, Kieran preferred to keep it that way. He deliberately hid any hint of hostility toward Beck.
Even so, Caleb still caught on.
Because the look Kieran gave Beck was the same cold, guarded look he'd once given him.
Caleb paused, wondering if he was imagining it, but when he turned and caught the way Beck was looking at Celeste, he knew he wasn't mistaken.
He glanced at Beck, surprise flickering in his eyes. He truly didn't expect that Beck would like Celeste too.
Then he gave a small, knowing smile.
Not long after, Wynn also heard about it and decided to go as well.
Unlike Celeste's group, though, she went alone.
Carrying a flower lantern, she hadn't even reached the clearing yet when she saw, not far away, both Caleb and Kieran standing close to Celeste—each gently releasing a firefly into her open palm.
Wynn knew a bit about Caleb and Jorge's circle—none of them were particularly close with Trevor or Matthias's group.
Normally, given Caleb's tight schedule, even if he wanted to hang out, it would be with his own crowd.
So, for him to show up here, spending the evening with Matthias and the others—there had to be a reason.
And now, that reason was clear as day.
If before she'd still had a sliver of doubt about whether Caleb really liked Celeste—then now, she had her answer.
Caleb truly liked her.

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....
