Celeste shook her head.
Matthias asked, "Is it still because he's busy with work?"
"Mm."
Matthias fell silent.
Granted, Trevor's recent business ventures had been making waves, but no matter how busy he was, it didn't make sense that he couldn't spare even half an hour to finalize a divorce.
If Matthias didn't already know the full story, he might've thought Trevor was deliberately dragging his feet. But knowing their situation, that was impossible.
He patted Celeste's shoulder. "Then give it a few more days. If he still hasn't made time by the end of the reflection period, just file for divorce directly."
Celeste nodded. "Okay."
Although she said that, deep down, she didn't think it would come to that.
…
Two days later, it was Celeste's birthday.
She woke up early that morning. Betty and Adeline were already busy in the kitchen, making pancakes and preparing cake.
They had long since gotten her birthday gifts ready.
When Celeste came downstairs, they handed them to her with smiles.
"Cel, happy birthday! You've grown another year older."
"Happy birthday, Celeste!"
Warmth filled her heart as she took each gift. "Thank you."
The pancakes weren't done yet, and they were still chatting when the phone rang—security calling to say someone was at the gate.
When she heard the license plate number, she knew it was Trevor's car.
Everyone in the Rodriguez family froze, their smiles stiffening and faces darkening.
They all knew the only reason Celeste and Trevor hadn't gone to finalize their divorce was that he'd been busy.
He'd always been very firm about wanting the divorce.

Outside, the sound of a car pulling up broke the silence.
Hector, still fuming, started toward the door, but Celeste stopped him. "Celeste—"
She shook her head. "Don't."
She went out alone.

Seeing her, the little girl ran over with a bright smile. "Mom, happy birthday!"
Celeste froze.
Jordyn held out what she was carrying. "Mom, this is my gift for you!"
Before Celeste could speak, Jordyn rummaged in her backpack and pulled out another box.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
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...
why is there not 5 episodes updated daily like the others on this website...
I read this novel recently. I just feel, it is exhausting being in Celeste shoes. Not getting a clear break, on the other side - Trevor is comfortably two timing and dragging. He is not really worth and should face the consequences. On the other hand, i also feel that probably he is putting on a mask to push Celeste to achieve her dreams and eventually became a hero. However, his attitude and physical relationship with Wynn - is not justifying my this theory. Let's just wait and watch, i hope it is not too much of a drag...
Depressing if Trevor give up Celeste and propose to his mistress! Poor Jordyn. Thank goodness,I am busy with patients' issues. I can stop here....
Will it make difference to Trevor if he knows how his mistress family malign the mother of his daughter even if he and Celeste are divorcing for his mistress?...
Please update atleast 3 chapters a day......
Is it only me? can't read the complete chapters. The read more does not connect...
Pls update more chapters...
