Chapter 82
Beck looked at Trevor, paused briefly, and then accepted the offered glass. “Thanks.”
The two clinked their glasses and started chatting while sipping their drinks.

After a while, Trevor gave Beck a second glance.
Beck raised his eyebrows. “What is it?”
Miles interjected, “You’re acting a little off today.”
Trevor chuckled softly, silently agreeing with Miles‘ observation.
Beck remained calm, and his tone sounded flat as he retorted, “Am I?”
Miles raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t you?”
Beck took a small sip of his drink without responding.
Just then, someone approached to greet them, cutting the conversation short.
After the person left, Beck checked the time. Worried that Shanice might be hungry, he was about to head over to her when she and Jordyn returned on their own.
“Uncle Beck, can I have one of those little cakes over there? Shanice asked, pointing at the dessert table.
Shanice tended to develop allergies, so there were many foods she couldn’t eat. Beck said, “Sit here, and I’ll get it for you.
“Okay,” Shanice replied obediently.
Jordyn, on the other hand, was used to being more independent. With her robust health, she could eat whatever she wanted. She grabbed a plate of food for herself and even asked Trevor, “Dad, do you want some?”
Trevor patted her head affectionately. “No, thanks,”
The two kids sat nearby, eating, Wynn, who had found something she liked, shared it with Jordyn.
Jordyn took it happily. “Thank you, Wynn.”
Shanice looked up at Wynn with curiosity and then turned to Jordyn, asking, “Jo, isn’t this lady your mother?”
The question brought an abrupt silence to the room.
Jordyn froze for a moment before shaking her head. “No.”
Shanice asked cautiously, “So, you don’t have a mother either?”
Jordyn shook her head again. “No, I do have a mother.”
Later, the yacht staff handed out souvenirs, and Shanice was immediately drawn to a crystal keychain. There were only two available, so she picked out both.
Jordyn also liked the keychains. Sering, that Shanice had taken both, she couldn’t help but ask, “Shanice, could you give me one? I want to give it to Wynu.”
Shanice hesitated, clearly reluctant. “I want to give one to my friend too.”

Thinking of Celeste, Shanice couldn’t help but share, “Today, Uncle Beck and my friend went kite flying with me. We also fished, rode bikes, and chased butterflies. She’s so beautiful–I know she’ll love this crystal keychain.”
At first, the adults hadn’t paid much attention to the children’s conversation, but when they heard this, Wynn, Miles, and Trevor all turned to look at Beck.
Miles was the first to speak, his tone teasing, “Beck, what’s going on? Or should I say, is something already going on?” Not waiting for an answer, he pressed on, “When did this start? How come you didn’t tell us anything? Right, Trevor?”
Trevor smiled but remained silent, clearly waiting to hear Beck’s explanation.
Beck’s expression remained neutral. “It was just a chance meeting.”
“Really?” Miles didn’t believe him. He suddenly remembered something and added, “So you had lunch together, too? That explains why you seemed so relaxed handling a kid on your own. Turns out you had help!”
Beck didn’t say anything, staying silent.
Trevor looked at him, then made a decisive remark. “You’re interested in her.”
Beck froze, his lips parting as if to speak, but he didn’t deny it in the end.
Wynn blinked, her smile fading slightly.
“No way, it’s true?” Miles exclaimed, shocked. He had only been teasing, never expecting it to be real. He quickly asked, “Who is she? Do we know her? Why haven’t you brought her to meet us yet?”

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....
