Jordyn handed Celeste the gift Trevor had prepared for her—but just as Celeste reached out, Jordyn pulled it back and clung to her hand coquettishly. "Mom, look at my gift first!"
Celeste paused. "...Alright."
She opened the box as Jordyn watched eagerly.
Inside was a neatly framed oil painting. The person in the painting was her. In the lower right corner, a line of small words read: "To my Mom, happy birthday."
Celeste felt her heart jolt as if struck. Her hand froze midair, gripping the frame.
Jordyn shook her hand gently. "I painted it half a month ago! Do you like it, Mom?"
Snapping out of her reverie, Celeste looked at her daughter's hopeful face. Her emotions were a tangled mess, but she answered honestly, "I love it. You're getting really good at painting, sweetheart."
Hearing that, Jordyn's face lit up with pure joy. "If you like it, I'll paint another one for you next time!"
"...Okay."
Satisfied, Jordyn finally stuffed Trevor's gift into her hand. "Mom, I have to go to school now or I'll be late! I'll come again tonight to have dinner with you, okay?"
"...Alright."
At some point, Betty and the others had also come out. Jordyn waved at them cheerfully before hopping into the car and leaving.
Once she was gone, Celeste turned back silently.
The fact that Trevor sent a gift didn't mean he wasn't still going through with the divorce today—so no one in the Rodriguez family said a word.
Adeline broke the silence. "The pancakes are ready, Cel. Come have some first."

When he opened it, Betty, standing beside him, froze.
Hector blinked. "Is this... a red diamond?"
Adeline, who knew a thing or two about jewelry, came closer for a look—and her eyes widened.
It was a red diamond. A massive one—easily over a hundred carats. An extremely rare gemstone of that size... Its value was unimaginable.
Hector remembered hearing about how Celeste had once auctioned a diamond to pay for Isabelle's medical treatment.

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...
