Although it was an old villa neighborhood, the environment was wonderful. On top of that, with the insane real estate prices in the downtown area, the villa was worth at least two to three billion dollars.
Celeste didn’t have that kind of money now.
Trevor had just returned home not long ago and was loosening his tie. He probably found what she said amusing because he raised an eyebrow and asked nonchalantly, “Do you intend to pay me for the villa?”
“Yeah. L…”
“Save it.” Trevor put his tie on the dresser. “I can afford to give you that kind of money.”
Then, he also put his watch down before walking into the bathroom.
Celeste watched his retreating figure. She was stunned momentarily before deciding she wouldn’t insist on paying him. Ever since they got married, she was concerned about being a bother to him. That was why she had never. asked him for anything.
Now that Celeste thought about it, this particular villa was the only thing Trevor had taken the initiative of giving her for the past years. She would think of it as a gift that marked the end of their marriage.
At the thought of it, Celeste put the deed in her drawer.
She continued her busy life for three days. On the fourth day, she finally had some time on her hands.
Celeste and Trevor had both been quite busy these days, which meant they didn’t have much time for Jordyn. At noon, the little girl called, asking if Celeste was free to pick her up after school. It had been a long time since Celeste had done that.

Martha was happy to see Celeste coming home early from work. When she noticed the latter personally preparing the meal, she called Trevor and told him to come home for dinner.
Trevor rejected her, “I have work, Grandma.”
Martha was pissed off at first, but her face lit up after a brief moment. She hung up the phone and said to Celeste, “Bring Trevor some dinner at his company, Cel.”
Celeste briefly paused before she rejected. “If Trevor’s busy we shouldn’t disturb.”
“Yeah, he might be busy, but he can’t just skip dinner. Can le?”
“Grandma…”
Before Celeste could reply, Martha exclaimed, “It’s decided”
Theu, Martha instructed Hannah and the others to make more dishes. She was so insistent that Celeste couldn’t find an opportunity to say anything
However, there was an obstacle if Celeste were to bring Trevor dinner–she had no idea which company he was at So, how was she supposed to do it?
For what it was worth, Trevor might have other arrangements after he was done with his work. She might be
