The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 29

Celeste and Matthias arrived at the banquet hall, where most guests had already gathered. Celeste’s outstanding appearance and graceful presence immediately attracted many of their attention.

The host of the event, Joshua Simpson, was familiar with Matthias. He smiled and made his way over to greet them. Just as he was about to approach, however, more guests arrived at the entrance of the hall.

Seeing the newcomers, Joshua froze, his disbelief apparent.

The other guests, too, were stunned by the unexpected arrival.

Celeste and Matthias were still facing away from the entrance and were puzzled at the sudden expressions of surprise and delight from the other guests.

As they were about to turn around to see what was happening, Joshua shot them a brief apologetic look before moving past them and heading toward the entrance.

“Good evening, Mr. Fleming, Mr. Harper, and Mr. Quinton

Celeste’s heart skipped a beat as a sudden realization formed in her mind. She turned around and her smile faltered for a moment.

Indeed, it was Trevor, Beck, and Miles.

Wynn had arrived too.

To Celeste’s surprise, Wynn was wearing the same gown Celeste had seen in the boutique the day before, the one valued at over 30 million dollars.

Wynn’s tall, curvaceous figure, paired with the elegance and grace of the gown, made her appear both sensual and regal. She seemed almost untouchable in the eyes of those present.

“Is that Trevor, Beck, and Miles? They rarely attend events. Why are they here today?”

“Seriously, what’s going on?”

“And who is that stunning woman with them? Is she Trevor’s girlfriend? She’s so beautiful! If I could have a woman like that, I’d willingly trade ten years of my life!”

“I prefer the one in the ivory gown, though. She’s quiet and graceful. I think compared to Mr. Fleming’s her type of beauty is much rarer. It’s a shame she’s already with someone.”

Celeste overheard another conversation.

girlfriend,

“Oh my god, that gown! I was in awe when I saw it yesterday! The store manager mentioned it was a custom piece for someone’s girlfriend. I was wondering who the big spender was. Turns out it was Trevor! 30 million dollars, can you believe that?”

“What? 30 million?!”

Celeste’s gaze lowered slowly.

When she saw Wynn in the gown, she had already suspected that it might have been a gift from Trevor. Despite the Locket family’s thriving business, they could hardly afford such extravagant expenditures for an event. On the other hand, 30 million dollars might be nothing to Trevor.

Admittedly, Trevor was very attentive to Wynn. The gown had been custom–ordered two weeks in advance, meaning he had planned to bring Wynn to this event long before it happened.
