The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 687

The next morning, Celeste and Trevor both went to the courthouse as agreed.

The procedure went smoothly.

Once everything was done, Celeste got into her car and headed back to the company.

News of their filing for divorce that morning quickly reached Miles and Beck.

Miles said to Beck, "They should've done this a long time ago. When they decided not to divorce before, I already thought it was unnecessary. They both have someone else now—divorce was inevitable. There's no point dragging it out.

"As for Jo, I think it's Celeste's issue. If she truly cares about Jo, shouldn't she let go of the past and get along peacefully with Wynn for the child's sake now that she has found her own happiness? Wouldn't that be best for Jo?"

But Celeste and Matthias weren't actually a real couple.

Of course, Beck didn't say that out loud.

Seeing Miles criticizing Celeste, Beck said, "Jo is her daughter. Even if she has already let go of Trevor and found her own happiness, you're asking her to let Jo grow close to someone who once hurt her. If it were you, you'd find it hard to be that magnanimous too, wouldn't you?"

Back when he didn't like Celeste, seeing Jo grow fond of Wynn, he had thought it was only natural—Wynn was capable, gracious, and kind to the child.

But later, when he started seeing things from Celeste's perspective, he realized that Jordyn's affection for Wynn was, in a way, the cruelest kind of betrayal to her.

Anyone could get close to Wynn, but Jordyn shouldn't have.

Yet Jordyn wasn't his child. Trevor allowed it, and Wynn genuinely treated Jordyn very well.

Trevor and Wynn would definitely get married in the future. Compared to Celeste, Jordyn would inevitably spend more time with Wynn.

So, was it really appropriate for him to advise Trevor to limit the child's contact with Wynn?

Miles was taken aback. He didn't expect Beck to say that.

But then again, if his own daughter were closer to the man his wife cheated with, he'd probably be furious too. It would indeed be hard to be that completely forgiving.

Ruby said, "I just hope they can finalize the divorce smoothly this time."

"Yes, exactly."

…

That afternoon, Celeste went with Kieran and the others to discuss the collaboration with Quincy's side.

Only after arriving did she realize that Trevor was there as well.

That morning at the courthouse, they had only exchanged a brief nod in greeting, barely speaking at all. Yet now, their communication flowed smoothly as they discussed work-related matters.

It was as if nothing had happened.

To an outsider, there was no way to tell that they had gone together to file for divorce just that morning.
