The Breaking Point of Love Novel

Chapter 610

Celeste's steps faltered slightly.

Seeing her suddenly stop, Jordyn looked up. "Mom?"

It was just accompanying Jordyn out for some fun. Since Trevor

didn't think there was any issue, there was naturally no reason

for her to object.

Celeste didn't say anything more.

She had driven there herself. After stepping outside, just as she

was about to get into her own car, she heard Trevor say, "Shall |

drive?"

Before Celeste could respond, Trevor had already walked over to

her car and pulled open the driver's door. 3

Celeste paused.

But seeing that Jordyn had already happily climbed into the car,

she didn't say anything further.

Jordyn wanted to go shopping, so they headed to a shopping

mall.

Recently, because of Jordyn, the three of them had gone out

together far more often than before.

----

However, most of the time, they had gone to private locations.

Only occasionally would they eat out together at restaurants with

more people around.

Coming together to such a crowded, lively shopping mall today

was the first time in the past two years.

Wasn't Trevor afraid of running into someone they knew in such

a crowded place?

With that thought in mind, after getting out of the car, Celeste

glanced at Trevor.

He didn't look at her.

Jordyn was in a particularly good mood and tugged Trevor

forward. "Dad, | want that building block set | told you about

before, you—"

Before she could finish speaking, she turned back and called out

to Celeste, who was two steps behind. "Mom, what's wrong?"

Celeste didn't speak. Trevor also turned around.

Jordyn let go of Trevor's hand, ran back, and took hold of

Celeste’s hand. "Mom, let's go look at the building blocks first,

and then we can go to wherever you want to shop, okay?"

Celeste withdrew her gaze, held her hand, and said, "| don't need

----

to buy anything, Just tell me where you want to go.”

"Okay."

Once inside the store, Jordyn let go of Celeste's hand and ran off

on her own.

Celeste's eyes followed Jordyn. Out of the corner of her eye, she

noticed Trevor looking at her, but she didn't turn her head.

Trevor didn't take the initiative to speak to her either. He simply

walked toward Jordyn together with her.

They accompanied Jordyn to quite a few stores that caught her

interest. She was cheerful the entire time.

When Jordyn went to the restroom, they waited outside. Celeste

took out her phone to reply to a message when she suddenly

heard Trevor ask, "Is there really nothing you want to buy?" 2

Celeste didn't know why he suddenly started talking to her, but

she didn't look up. While replying to her message, she simply

said, "No."

Trevor didn't pursue the topic and instead asked, "Are you going

to Fleming Group again tomorrow for a meeting?"

Celeste didn't respond, acting as if she hadn't heard him.

Seeing this, Trevor didn't say anything else. Noticing that she

----

was focused on her phone, he remained silent.

After Jordyn came out of the restroom, they walked around with

her for a bit longer. By then, it was already dark outside.

Jordyn was tired, so they went into a restaurant for dinner.

As soon as they entered, they quickly drew the attention of the

people around them.

Naturally, this included Lilian and Patricia, who were seated

inside a partitioned private booth. 5

They had also come out shopping.

But none of them expected to see Trevor, Celeste, and Jordyn

together here. 2

After all, this shopping mall was bustling with people. If they ran

into someone familiar and Jordyn casually called out "Mom," the

relationship between Trevor and Celeste would be exposed

immediately.

Because of this, Trevor had always been especially cautious in

the past, even when indulging Jordyn by taking her out to play or

eat.

Yet now, they were actually appearing in a shopping mall with so

little privacy.
