The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66

Hearing Jordyn’s words, Celeste was momentarily brought back to her thoughts.

Yesterday, when she fell, Trevor didn’t help her.

When she got hurt, he acted indifferent.

He behaved that way not just because he didn’t care about her but also because he didn’t want Wynn to misunderstand.

In his heart, Wynn’s thoughts and feelings were what mattered most.

Whether Celeste lived or died didn’t concern him.

Otherwise, how could he have been so cold when he saw her fall and get injured?

With this thought, her expression turned indifferent. Just as she was about to decline, Trevor spoke first.

“Ask your Mom,” he said to Jordyn.

Jordyn turned to Celeste. “Mom, Dad wants to know if you want to talk to him.”

Celeste pressed her lips together briefly before responding, “No, I’m busy.”

“Oh,” Jordyn relayed this to Trevor. “Dad, Mom said no.”

Trevor simply replied, “Okay”

Jordyn said, “Okay, Mom. Bye.”

“Bye.”

After hanging up, Jordyn set down her phone and turned to Trevor. “Dad, I think Mom’s upset about something, she said. There was a hint of uncertainty in her voice.

Trevor glanced at her. His tone was indifferent. “Oh? Is that so?”

“Yeah. I don’t know why, but I just got that feeling”

“Okay.”

And that was the end of the conversation.

Over the next few days, Celeste continued working from home.

Jordyn called her daily to check on her injury, but as Celeste expected, she never mentioned visiting

The assignment she and Matthias had submitted was reviewed by Zachary two days later.

The core technical analysis they had put together–something others might have treated as confidential–was harshly criticized by Zachary and deemed worthless.

For the next two or three days, Celeste and Matthias spent much of their time revising the presentation based on Zachary’s feedback while juggling their regular work.

By Monday, Celeste’s ankle had mostly healed. Although she still wasn’t comfortable driving, she was able to return to the office.

At the office, Matthias said to her, “It seems Trevor really does plan to collaborate with us.”

Trevor hadn’t come personally, but someone from his side had reached out last week.

Matthias had deliberately kept it from Celeste as he was worried it might affect her.

Later that day, someone from Trevor’s company was scheduled to visit their office again. If the discussions went well, they could finalize the initial plans for the partnershi

Trevor’s technical director, Henry Quinn, was representing Trevor’s private tech company rather than the Fleming Group,

It was the first time Celeste had met him.

Learning that Celeste was also in tech, Henry greeted her politely. “Hello, Ms. Rodriguez.”

“Hello,” Celeste replied.

The subsequent discussions went smoothly.

At noon, YodaVision Co. hosted a lunch for Trevor’s team.

When they arrived at the restaurant and got out of the car, they happened to run into Trevor and Wynn, who had just stepped out of their vehicle as well.

Celeste froze momentarily at the sight of them.

Matthias rubbed his temples. He was clearly not expecting such a coincidence.

Henry’s eyes lit up as he called out, “Mr. Fleming!”

Trevor and Wynn turned around.

Both seemed a little surprised to see Celeste and Matthias

After briefly greeting Celeste and Matthias, Henry walked over to Trevor and Wynn.

Since Trevor had already seen them and they had an ongoing collaboration, Celeste and Matthias exchanged a glance before reluctantly following Henry.

Henry, who evidently knew Wynn, greeted her warmly. “Ms Locket.”

“Hello,” Wynn replied. Her tone was slightly cold.

Henry didn’t mind. Considering Wynn’s special status as Trevor’s favored companion–and likely future wife- her aloof demeanor toward subordinates was understandable.

Henry turned back to Trevor and explained, “I was at Yodavision Co. earlier discussing a collaboration. Since it’s lunchtime, Mr. Yoder and his team invited us out for a meal

Trevor nodded and shook Henry’s hand. “Thank you for your efforts.”

“It’s my job,” Henry said with a smile.

Trevor’s gaze shifted to Matthias and Celeste. He greeted Matthias with a nod. “Mr. Yoder.”

He didn’t address Celeste.

Matthias responded with a polite nod and suddenly suggested, “Since we’ve run into each other, why not join us?”
