The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107

Although Ivan had lowered his voice and avoided Betty when handing over the invitation, Celeste understood everything perfectly.

She replied, “I know.”

Betty and Martha were close friends. By right, Martha would attend Betty’s birthday celebration.

However, since Martha was older than Betty, according to their customs, elderly guests older than the birthday celebrant would not attend.

For the past few years, Betty’s birthdays had not been grand affairs. It was just a simple family dinner.

And in all those years, Trevor had never once attended Betty’s birthday. He excused himself by saying he was busy from the beginning.

But Celeste knew that even if he had free time–enough to go out and have fun with friends–he still wouldn’t show up.

Even so, every year as Betty’s birthday approached, she would always hold onto a bit of hope and ask him in advance if he was available, if he could accompany her back to the Rodriguez residence to celebrate.

But every time, she was met with disappointment. This year, she didn’t want to ask Trevor anymore. However, this year was different–it was Betty’s 70th birthday, and Ivan had invited many business partners. Besides the fact that she and Trevor weren’t officially divorced yet, even if they were, given the deep friendship between the two old ladies, the Fleming family still had to be invited.

Whether they chose to attend or not was up to them.

Tonight, Celeste had originally planned to return to her own place. But thinking about this, she turned the steering wheel and headed back to Trevor’s villa instead.

When she arrived, she realized that neither Trevor nor Jordyn had returned yet. And since Martha had some matters to attend to, she had gone back to the Fleming Manor a few days ago.

Celeste set down her bag and went into the bathroom.

Half an hour later, just as she stepped out of the bathroom, she heard the sound of a car pulling up outside. Unless she was mistaken, Trevor and Jordyn had returned.

She remained unfazed and simply sat down to dry her hair.

Upon hearing that Celeste was home, Jordyn was the first to run upstairs. She rushed straight into the master bedroom and jumped into Celeste’s arms. “Mom, we’re back!”

She carried the scent of Wynn’s perfume.

Celeste remained expressionless and responded with a simple hum. She turned off the hairdryer and gently stroked Jordyn’s little face. “Have you taken a shower?”

Jordyn shook her head. “Not yet.”

“It’s already past ten. Go take a shower now you have school tomorrow.”

Just as Celeste finished speaking, Trevor walked into the bedroom. Their eyes met.

Celeste only glanced at him briefly before coldly looking away.

At that moment, Jordyn tried to pull her up from the chair. “Mom, help me shower!”

Celeste replied, “Alright. Let me dry my hair first.”

“Okay!” Jordyn happily ran off to her room to prepare her pajamas.

Trevor sat down on the other side of the room and asked, “When did you get back?”
