Most of the people camping here tonight had come for the meteor shower.
Unfortunately, even after waiting until past 1:00 am, Celeste and her friends didn't see a single shooting star. Eventually, they decided to head back to their tents to rest.
Matthias, Caleb, and Kieran watched as Celeste disappeared into her tent.
Once she was gone, Matthias glanced at the two men beside him, cleared his throat, and said, "She's not officially divorced yet. Even if you're planning to pursue her, mind your boundaries. Don't make things harder for her."
"I know," Kieran replied first. But then he frowned slightly. "Still… If I remember right, her mandatory waiting period should've ended a while ago. Why isn't the divorce finalized yet? Did something go wrong?"
Caleb already knew about Celeste's divorce delay—Matthias had explained the basics to him earlier—so he stayed quiet.
Hearing Kieran's question, Matthias could only purse his lips and repeat, "That guy had something come up at work and missed the date. They had to reapply for divorce."
Kieran asked again, "Then when does the new mandatory waiting period end?"
"Don't worry, it's soon. Within this month."
It was getting late, and Matthias was already sleepy. He yawned and waved a hand. "Alright, I'm turning in. You two—"
Before he could finish, Caleb suddenly spoke up. "Who is he?"
Matthias immediately knew who "he" referred to—Celeste's husband.
Because Caleb had shown interest in Celeste, he'd reached out to Matthias a few times before, asking about her situation. But not once had he asked about her husband.
It wasn't that he wasn't curious or upset. He just thought—whoever that man was, he was part of Celeste's past.
Once the divorce was done, that person would be a stranger to her, and that was all that mattered.
Besides, if one day he was fortunate enough to truly be with Celeste, she would eventually tell him about her past on her own.
Which only made him more curious about what kind of man her husband was.
Hearing Caleb's question, Kieran also turned toward Matthias.
Matthias froze mid-step. He clearly didn't want to talk about Trevor. Then, he let out a short, cold snort. "Him? Hah. A complete scumbag."
And with that, he ended the conversation—turning around and heading straight for his tent.
Caleb and Kieran exchanged a glance.
Both looked momentarily stunned, but neither spoke.
They, too, turned and went back to rest.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
I'm so excited for tomorrow! I wonder what happened to Jo... What is the story behind that court summons?...
A court summons? Oh my God, what happened?...
Here we go again…drip-drop. One page a day instead of the promised 5 Chapters and even that stops suddenly so we never know if the story will advance. I swear this author is writing the new page on their lunch break and laughing at us when we get frustrated....
I feel like reading the novel from everyone else's perspective, but the main characters. There has never been a glimpse on Trevor's side of thoughts or intentions. He feels like a ghost in this whole storyline. Although i am glad that Mathias revealed the truth about Celeste, but it still feels empty without main character's thoughts or feelings or voices being shared....
Wynn's reputation is over. I read all these chapters for this moment... I'm really glad that Matthias finally said everything at once. All thanks to the fool Quinton...
So we're going to keep going in circles atp,nothing was revealed that we didn't already know,I mean I would've at least liked to see Trevor's reaction to finding out his wife is the co-owner and coder to CUAP,find out who drugged them.Whats happening with the military blacksite,how come Celeste is so quiet she never stands up for herself. All we're getting is reaction's from side character's who don't matter...
Yes.. I'm looking forward to the upcoming chapters......
I don't really understand the writer. Why are Trevor and Celeste silent now? Isn't it about them?...
Who the helly is georgette 😆...
Alas..the truth that has been buried since…is prevailing....
