The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 43

Jordyn must have been having too much fun with Wynn because she didn’t contact Celeste at all over the weekend.

On Monday, Celeste went to work at YodaVision as usual. Right before getting off work, Lottie called and invited her to dinner.

During the meal, Celeste went to the restroom and ran into Beck.

Without pausing, Celeste acted as if she’hadn’t seen him and walked straight past him.

However, Beck stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at her.

Celeste noticed it but ignored him.

When she exited the restroom, she saw that Beck was still standing at the same spot where they had crossed paths earlier, as if he had been waiting for her.

Seeing her come out, he turned his head and asked, “Here for dinner?”

It seemed as if he had been waiting for her on purpose.

“Yes,” she replied coolly. Then, she added indifferently, “Does Mr. Harper think I followed you here again?”

Beck hesitated before saying, “That’s not what I meant.”

Celeste didn’t know what he meant. Nor did she care to know.1

Without another word, she walked away and Beck did not stop her.

After leaving the restaurant, Lottie wanted to buy a birthday gift for her mother. So, Celeste accompanied her to a jewelry boutique..

Lottie took a liking to an emerald necklace and had just started discussing the purchase with the store manager when a voice suddenly came from the entrance.

“Hello, I’m here to pick up my jewelry.”

Hearing the voice, Celeste paused for a moment.

“Oh, it’s Mr. Locket,” the store owner immediately greeted the newcomer with a smile.

After giving Celeste and Lottie an apologetic look, he walked over. “Mr. Locket, your custom jewelry has been packaged and is ready…”

“Cel?”

Upon confirming that he hadn’t mistaken her identity, Harvey walked toward Celeste. “Are you here to order custom jewelry too?”

Celeste glanced at him but said nothing.

Noticing her cold attitude, Harvey’s expression dimmed. “Cel…”

Celeste turned her face away, ignoring him, and instead asked Lottie, “Are you sure you want this one?”

Lottie had never met Harvey before. Seeing that he was old but still carried himself with refinement, she nudged Celeste’s waist lightly with her elbow and whispered, “Who is this?”

Celeste didn’t answer.

However, Harvey didn’t leave. Looking at her, he asked, “Cel, how have you been lately?”

Celeste pressed her lips together before finally glancing at Him. Her voice was cold as she asked, “What do you want?”
