The Breaking Point of Love Novel

Chapter 505

With Matthias's help, things weren't really delayed much, even

without a computer.

But that afternoon, something urgent suddenly came up with

Fleming Group, and Celeste had to handle it quickly.

Ata time like this, not having a computer was a real hassle.

Looking at the files sent over from Fleming Group on her phone,

Celeste started regretting tuning down Trevor's offer of a laptop

to her that morning. +

Still, the matter was urgent...

She turned and went upstairs, stopping outside Trevor's study.

After hesitating for two seconds, she finally knocked on the door.

"Come in." 1

Trevor was seated at his desktop, busy with work. Just as

Celeste pushed the door open, he happened to look up.

Seeing her, he didn't look surprised at all.

In fact, before she even said anything, he asked, "Need the

computer?" 2

Standing at the door, Celeste replied, "...Yes."

----

Trevor chuckled and nudged the laptop beside him toward her,

signaling her to take it.

Only then did Celeste walk inside.

She didn't look around, just walked straight to his desk, picked

up the laptop, and said, "Thank you."

Trevor only smiled without replying.

Celeste said nothing more. She tuned and left with the laptop.

Just as she was stepping out of the room, she heard him say to

the other side of the screen, "Continue," and realized he was in

the middle of a meeting

Celeste returned to Jordyn's room to work.

Jordyn had wanted to play together, but seeing Celeste so busy

that she didn't even hear what she said, the girl felt a little sulky. 2

At that moment, Trevor walked in.

Jordyn hugged a pillow, sighed, and muttered, "Dad, Mom's so

busy...”

Trevor gave a quiet hum, then stepped into the room, pulled

over a chair, and sat down right beside Celeste. 2

Celeste didn't even notice he was there until the sound made her

glance sideways. Seeing it was him, she didn't say anything, just

went back to her work.

As for the contents on the screen, since it was related to

Fleming Group, even if Trevor caught a glimpse, it wasn't a

problem.

He actually still had his own things to do, but he stayed for a

while, watching with interest. 2

When enough time had passed, he finally left, though with a

trace of regret in his eyes. 4

That day, Celeste had a lot on her plate and kept working until

late in the evening without finishing.

At dinner, she sat next to Trevor. "I still have quite a bit to finish

tonight," she said. "Do you need the laptop?"

"No, you can keep using it.”

"Alright."

Their interactions were going smoothly, which made Martha

quite happy. Thinking Celeste was too thin, she kept urging her

toeat more. 2

After dinner, Celeste went back upstairs to continue working.

Trevor didn't disturb her again, instead staying downstairs to

play with Jordyn.

At around 9:00 pm, after Jordyn had showered and was ready

for bed, she noticed her mother still working, the sound of the

keyboard tapping away.

It wasn't really loud, but she suddenly remembered something

and asked, "Mom, why don't you go work in your and Dad's room?

‘e

She wasn't complaining about the noise or saying she couldn't

sleep.

She just suddenly recalled that in the past, even if Celeste had

work, she would always do it in the room she shared with Trevor,

not in her room.

Celeste's hands on the keyboard paused. Two seconds later, she

answered, "Working here is the same." Then she added, "Sorry,

I'm disturbing your rest." 1

"You're not disturbing me at all." Jordyn yawned and said, "I'll go

to sleep first, then. You should rest early too, Mom. Good night."

“Mm, good night."

Saying that, Celeste helped switch off the main light in her room.
