After they finished work, it was already getting dark. So, Quincy suggested they go for a meal together.
Trevor said, "Sorry, I have something to take care of. Let's do dinner another time."
Quincy chuckled. "Don't tell me you're going to have dinner with Ms. Locket?"
Trevor paused for a moment, but didn't deny it.
Seeing that, Quincy immediately understood that he was admitting it by not answering. "I heard Ms. Locket recovered a few days ago. You're still treating her like a treasure? Do you really need to accompany her for meals every day…"
Halfway through his sentence, Quincy's gaze flicked toward Celeste. So, he abruptly stopped. Then he quickly apologized, "Sorry, I mean... Because you two—"
He knew about the situation between Celeste and Trevor. But these past days, the two of them acted as if they were nothing more than business partners whenever they met.
Sometimes, he genuinely forgot that there had ever been anything between them.
Celeste could tell Quincy meant no harm. She also roughly understood what he meant.
Her expression didn't change. "It's fine."
Kieran found it a little strange, not understanding why Quincy suddenly apologized to Celeste. He couldn't figure it out, but since it didn't seem like a big deal, he didn't dwell on it.
The room suddenly grew quiet.
It was Trevor who broke the silence first.
Without any change in expression, he looked at Celeste. "We'll get together next time. I'm heading off."
Celeste nodded silently while Quincy just sat still.
Looking at how polite and distant they were, who would have ever guessed that they used to be a couple?
If it had only been due to unforeseen events, they probably wouldn't have remained officially married for so long.
When Kieran asked these questions, his tone was gentle with no sense of intrusion or pressure. He simply wanted to understand.
Celeste replied calmly, "There were unexpected factors and other reasons."
Kieran was actually curious about the "other reasons." But he also knew it wasn't appropriate to keep pressing.
He nodded and didn't ask further. Instead, he said, "Then I'll ask you again after some time. If you really have divorced by then, will you tell me?"
There was nothing wrong with telling him the result. But—
Celeste looked at him as if she wanted to say something, but Kieran had already guessed it. "I know what you're going to say. Don't try to persuade me—you won't be able to."
Celeste couldn't say anything.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Somehow i am relieved today to see no updates than to be disappointed with yet another irritating show of everyone else's POV but the main characters...
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....
