Chapter 154

Trevor didn’t look at Celeste. He gently rubbed Jordyn’s nose. “I’m busy, Jo. Be a good girl and listen to Mom, okay?”

“Okay,” Jordyn replied nonchalantly. She cast Celeste a look and walked to her. Then, she extended her hand, signaling Celeste to grasp it.

This was basically her initiating the reconciliation.

Celeste took her hand, exchanged a quick greeting with Peter, and left.

By the time they reached the Rodriguez residence, Martha had been there for a while.

When Martha noticed Trevor’s absence, she frowned. “Where’s Trevor? Busy again?”

“Yeah,” Celeste replied.

Martha took out her phone angrily, wanting to give Trevor a call. On the other hand, Betty felt that there was no need for Trevor to be here after knowing Celeste and Trevor were about to get a divorce.

Hence, Betty stopped Martha. “He’s tied up with work, I get it. You don’t need to force him to come.”

Jordyn and Hector went upstairs to play games.

Martha was so impressed by the two new art pieces Betty had made. When she found out they were done exquisite scholar’s writing set Celeste had given Betty on her birthday, she showed a great interest in it.

She was very fascinated by the writing set when she finally saw it herself. Then, she asked, “What about Trevor? He wouldn’t have forgotten to prepare anything for your birthday, would he?”

“He did get me something.”

Betty became a little upset whenever she mentioned Trevor Still, she said, “He gave me a gorgeous emerald jewelry set, and the embroidery painting he brought on behalf of you is just as impressive.”

Martha chuckled. “That’s more like it. Looks like he listened to me after all.”

Celeste stayed quiet as she listened to them chat.

After staying in the study for a while, Martha and Betty headed out to the courtyard for some tea.

Betty stared at the house across from them. “Oh, by the way, Isn’t it weird that the renovations for the house just stopped unexpectedly? The renovations were going on day and night; and I thought the owner was in a rush to

move in.”

Martha smiled as she replied, “Maybe something happened, and they ended up not moving in.”

“Well, maybe.”

Celeste wanted to get rid of the house at first, but she was worried it might end up in the hands of someone from the Lockets or the Shaws.

Hence, she didn’t do anything about it.

Besides, given that the Shaws were involved, she didn’t feel like going in to check the house out.

As a result, it was simply put aside.

Just then, Celeste sneezed, a cold shiver running down her spine.

Martha and Betty asked in unison, “Are you okay? Did you catch a cold?”

Celeste grabbed a tissue to wipe her nose. “Maybe,”

She likely caught a cold last night as well, though her symptoms weren’t as obvious as Shanice’s.

Betty and Martha had been friends for years.
