Along with Beck's bouquet came a simple card and a small handmade flower from Shanice. That gift from Shanice had been sent through Beck.
In Celeste's view, Beck sending flowers was nothing more than politeness. Even if it was just courtesy, since she had received the gift, it was only proper to thank him personally.
So, she called him.
Beck had been expecting her call, and he'd been waiting for it for quite a while.
So, the moment her number appeared, he answered immediately and spoke first, "Got the gift? Happy birthday."
"Yes, I did. Thank you for the flowers, and please also tell Shanice that I really liked her gift."
Beck chuckled softly. "I will. Shanice actually prepared and sent it out half a month ago. Knowing you liked it will make her really happy."
Hearing that, Celeste's heart warmed. "Please tell her that when she's free to come back to Baumond, I'd like to take her out for a meal."
"Alright, I'll tell her."
"Then I'll leave you to it," Celeste said. "And... Thank you again for the flowers."
Beck, of course, didn't want the call to end so soon. Butโ
"You're welcome."
After the call ended, Celeste paused for a moment, then dialed Caleb's number.
The call didn't go through. She figured the flowers must've been arranged in advance, as he was probably still at the military base.
So, she sent him a short message insteadโa brief thank-you, along with a gentle but clear reminder of her boundaries.
Right after that, she sent a similar message to Kieran.

Meanwhile, after hanging up, the smile on Beck's face slowly faded.
After a long pause, he picked up his phone again and called Miles.
Even so, not having half an hour to spare was still a bit too much.
He didn't reply.
Miles sighed again on the other end. "Forget it. He's probably more fed up with it than we are."
"Mm."
"How about lunch later?" Miles suggested. "I'll call Wynn too."
At the mention of Wynn, Beck hesitated slightly.
"Let's wait till Trevor's back before we do that."
Without Trevor, a meal between the three of them just didn't feel the same.
Miles laughed. "Alright then."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
I think there wont be a closure anytime soon, with the speed with which the story is flowing. New characters are being introduced, sides and opinions are being formed blindly - yet no one is ever discussing anything with each other. This is by far the most frustrating novel i have read and yet, come back for an update in a hope that there may be something in reader's favor now. Sigh! There is nothing. If author doesn't want to take Celeste Trevor route, then let Celeste move on like Trevor has. Enough with this beating around the bush....
Y cant you give more chapters.... Really disappointed.. My fav novel produce only one chap per day๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐...
I can't even believe there are almost 800 chapters and absolutely no story line advances. Basically Trevor is absolute trash and deserves to be mocked and scorned because of his cheating nature, bringing his mistress around like he's single and flaunting the billions he spends on her as if he is not already married for 7 years. Celeste deserves everyone to know her story and be free of this loser....
Very slow in updating chapters๐.... Tat too only one... It vil be useful if updates have 5 chap a day or atleast 3 per day...
I am getting frustrated with story, what is the point in dragging this on? How come Celeste is always portrayed as the villain when she hasnโt done anything wrong? Get on with outing Wynn, Iโm sick of her!...
๐๐๐๐๐eagerly waiting fr next chapters...
Y only one chapter per day๐คฅ vry sad...
Why am i reading this novel still? In what hope, seriously? To have Trevor regret his choices? To get some clarity or closure on so many gaps this novel offers? To have Shaws & Lockets ever face repercussions? To get clarity on Celeste's mother life? Because seriously, 720+ chapters gone by and from last 350 chapter - there has been no significant progress, the story has been playing around in loops. This is just sad...
No updates still๐ก๐ก๐ก๐ก๐ก๐ก...
Y u stopped in middle.. Pls my fav story... Pls do post...
