Celeste started packing up for the hot spring retreat after breakfast, including clothes and other personal items. She only packed for herself, though. She didn’t do it for Trevor.
After all, they were a married couple only in name. Trevor wasn’t Celeste’s husband in the real sense anymore. He was Wynn’s lover now, and he probably wouldn’t like it if she touched his stuff.
Needless to say, Celeste didn’t want to touch Trevor’s personal belongings either.
Meanwhile, Jordyn helped Hannah with the packing. In the past, Celeste probably would’ve been worried about Jordyn forgetting her stuff. Hannah might’ve packed it for Jordyn, but she still would’ve gone through Jordyn’s luggage once more.
Now, however, Celeste went downstairs with her luggage once she was done packing her own stuff. She wasn’t worried about Jordyn at all.
After Celeste waited on the ground floor for a while, Jordyn and Trevor also came downstairs.
Once they all arrived at the hot spring retreat, Trevor went to God–knows–where to make a phone call. Martha found Celeste when the latter was unpacking her clothes and gave her a box.
“I prepared this for you. Put it on when you go to the hot spring.”
Judging by Martha’s expression, Celeste understood what was in the box. She felt a little uneasy and said, “I brought my own…”
“Relax. It’s nothing inappropriate. See it for yourself if you don’t believe me.”
Celeste opened the box; true enough, it was a bikini set. More to the point, it looked similar to the style she had always worn. She instantly felt relieved.
Martha chuckled and said, “Remember to put it on.”
Celeste fell silent for a while before she said, “Sure.”
The next moment, Trevor returned to the room and saw what was in the box. Celeste paused for a moment before she frantically closed the box. He pretended not to see it and turned his gaze away nonchalantly.
Trevor asked, “Is there a reason you’re here, Grandma?”
“Why, I’m here to urge both of you to the hot spring, of course!” Martha gave Trevor a shove as she spoke. “Go on. Get changed!”
Trevor paused momentarily, but he didn’t reject her either. A brief moment later, he slipped into a bathrobe and came out of the restroom.
Celeste saw that Trevor had come out, so she went into the restroom to get changed. By the time she came out, he was nowhere to be seen.
Celeste was about to hit the hot spring by herself when Martha walked over from the next room. With a smile, she said, “Trevor is in the hot spring to the left. Hurry up.”
The hot spring on the left wasn’t big at all–it was barely 30 square feet. If she and Trevor went into it together, they would touch each other, even if they didn’t extend their feet fully.
Clearly, Martha was trying to get both of them to take their relationship to another level. After all, they would be dressed in nothing but a bathrobe and underwear. Normally it would be easy for a man and woman to be overwhelmed with lust in the hot spring. For them, however…
