Hector was stunned. "T-That expensive?"
Even Betty and Adeline were taken aback.
Betty turned to Celeste. "Cel, come take a look."
Celeste had heard everything they said.
When she first took the box, she could already tell from the weight and texture that Trevor's gift wouldn't be cheap, but she hadn't expected this.
Just as her aunt said, the red diamond Trevor gave her was far more brilliant and pure than the one she had auctioned off before. And that estimated two billion was likely a very conservative figure.
From the look on Celeste's face, everyone could tell she didn't expect Trevor to give her something so extravagant either.
Hector frowned. "So, what now? Return it?" After all, she and Trevor were about to get divorced. A gift like this—
"Keep it."
Betty closed the brocade box and said firmly, "Just think of it as something for Jo. When she grows up, pass it to her. If you refuse it now, it'll only end up benefiting someone else."
That "someone else", of course, referred to Wynn.
Celeste nodded. She agreed completely with Betty.
Though shocked by the gift's value, she remained calm. She neither knew nor cared why Trevor would give her something so costly.
After finishing her pancakes, she went upstairs and placed the box casually on her cabinet—
didn't spare it another glance—then turned and left for work.
Matthias, naturally, also remembered her birthday.
Kieran happened to walk over just as she received the flowers, and naturally saw the card. His smile faded a little.
After the small celebration ended, the staff slowly returned to their desks.
Even so, they couldn't help but notice that within the next ten minutes, Celeste received three more bouquets.
One was from Lottie.
Another from Kieran, also roses. Since Celeste wasn't officially divorced yet, Kieran didn't want to cause unnecessary gossip by handing them over himself.
Even though he was in the office, he had someone else deliver the bouquet on his behalf.
He had actually planned to give her another gift too, but knowing how cautious she was, he decided against it, afraid that if he pushed too hard, she might not even accept the flowers.
As for the third bouquet—it was from Beck.

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....
