The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 679

After saying that, Matthias asked Celeste, "What about you? Haven't you been seeing Trevor quite often lately? Heard anything about this?"

Celeste shook her head. "No."

Although she and Trevor met frequently, they barely spoke beyond work matters.

Matthias frowned. "That's strange…"

He couldn't figure it out, but soon didn't have time to dwell on it as others came over to strike up conversations with them.

Not far away, Linda watched as Celeste was flattered and fawned over, growing increasingly irritated.

She lowered her voice and asked, "Weren't we supposed to get her and Matthias firmly together? When are we making a move?"

Ruby replied, "Your grandmother and the others said today isn't the right time or setting. We'll wait for the next opportunity."

She, too, was as anxious as the others, but she also knew that no matter how urgent it felt, things had to be done carefully without leaving a single trace.

…

Celeste's work continued steadily.

Over the next few days, she met Trevor twice more, but both times were strictly for business.

After seeing how professionally distant they were during collaborations, Kieran had almost forgotten that there were personal grievances between them. Likewise, aside from work discussions, he and Trevor never exchanged a single word about personal matters.

In the blink of an eye, it was March 8th.

Celeste had been busy with work lately, so she woke up a little later than usual that day.

As soon as she came downstairs, her aunt, Adeline, greeted her with a smile. "Cel, you're up. Someone sent you flowers. They're all placed on the coffee table. Go take a look."

Celeste paused.

She was about to say more when the sound of a car came from outside.

A moment later, Jordyn ran in holding a bouquet. "Mom, happy holiday!"

Just as Celeste was about to respond, she saw Trevor walk in behind Jordyn.

Celeste took the flowers from Jordyn and said, "Thank you, Jo."

Jordyn turned to Trevor. "Mom, Dad prepared a gift for you too."

As soon as she said that, Trevor handed over the gift box he was holding. "Happy holiday."

"Thank you." With Jordyn there, she had no choice but to accept it.

At that moment, Jordyn noticed the bouquets on the coffee table. "So many flowers… Mom, were all these sent to you by other people?"
