That evening, when Celeste got home after working late, she learned that Jordyn had come by the Rodriguez residence.
Jordyn tugged lightly at her sleeve and apologized in a cautious, guilty voice, saying that she had lost the marriage certificate belonging to Celeste and Trevor.
Celeste froze for a moment.
She hadn't expected Jordyn to actually lose their marriage certificate.
She pressed her lips together, about to say something, but when she lowered her head and saw Jordyn looking clearly remorseful and afraid that she might get angry, she took a deep breath.
In the end, she didn't scold her. "Since it's already lost, then let it be. But from now on, without the family's permission, don't casually take important documents or valuables from home to school again. Understand?"
Seeing that Celeste wasn't angry, the tension Jordyn had been carrying all day finally eased.
She hugged Celeste and nodded obediently. "I understand. I promise that without your and Dad's permission, I'll never do something like this again."
Seeing her mood improve, Celeste didn't say anything else, only added, "You should also tell your father about this."
"I know. I already told Dad, but he probably hasn't gotten off the plane yet. He hasn't replied to my message."
A short while later, while Jordyn was in the bathroom, Celeste's phone buzzed.
It was a message from Trevor. "Sorry."
Celeste didn't reply.
Very soon, a second message came through. "I may not be able to come back for a while."
She saw it, but still didn't reply.
The room was quiet.
After a moment, Trevor sent another message, "I've seen Jordyn's message. When I get back, we'll find time to reissue the documents."
Celeste remained motionless.
Perhaps realizing that she really was quite angry this time, Trevor apologized once more after sending those messages. "Sorry."
He was far away in Andostan and couldn't come back to finalize the divorce with her. No matter how much he said now, it was useless.
Jordyn readily agreed. "Got it, Dad. You're so naggy."
After chatting with Jordyn for a bit longer, Trevor finally hung up.
Before ending the call, though, he said, "Help me say good night to your mom too."
Jordyn looked toward Celeste, who was sitting not far away, and said, "I'm on speaker—Mom already heard you."
"Alright," Trevor said.
The call between Trevor and Jordyn ended.
But Celeste looked at Jordyn and slowly lowered her eyes.
When Jordyn had apologized for losing the marriage certificate, her attitude toward Celeste had been extremely cautious, afraid that Celeste would be angry.
Yet when facing Trevor, she wasn't afraid at all—

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....
