Chapter 663
After hanging up, Jordyn got into the car with her phone in hand.
Celeste looked at her back, wanting to call out to her, wanting to
say something, but after hesitating, she said nothing in the end.
Seeing this, Jordyn started sobbing again. Tears streamed down
her face as she cried and urged the driver to leave.
By the time they arrived at the manor, the tears on her face still
hadn't dried.
She no longer looked like she was crying, but she was clearly
dejected and listless.
Hearing the sound of the car, Trevor came out of the hall to wait
for her. When he saw her dazed, tear-soaked face, he bent down,
lifted her into his arms, and gently wiped the tears on her cheeks.
“Are you that angry at your mom?" he asked softly.
Jordyn hadn't been crying anymore, but the moment he
mentioned Celeste, she broke down again.
This time, it was silent with tears just falling.
She lifted her small face, wiping her eyes as she spoke, voice
trembling. "I—I'm not angry at her. II just..."
----
“Just what?" Trevor asked.
She turned her face away, lips quivering as she cried. "Mom...
Mom doesn't love me. In her heart, everything is more important
than me..." 3
That was why she could always put other things ahead of her,
why she could go back on her word.
She truly wasn't angry at her mom.
More than anger, she was hurt—hurt that she mattered so little in
her mother's heart.

Trevor understood.
Holding her as he carried her inside, he comforted her gently. "
It's not that your mom doesn't care about you. She just has
things she needs to do too.
“If you want to spend the New Year with Mom, then tomorrow or
the day after, we can go to your Granny's place and celebrate
with them, okay?"
Her sobbing paused. "You'll go too?"
"Yes," Trevor replied. 1
She fell silent.
----
He continued wiping her tears. "Then it's settled?”
She nodded.
But after two quiet seconds, she bit her lip again and said softly, "
But | still want Mom to come home. She really hasn't been home
fora long time..."
"Mm. When the time comes, we'll talk to Mom about it together.”
"Okay."
Trevor held her and comforted her for a while longer before she
finally stopped crying.
The Fleming family's guests hadn't left yet. Queenie and Teagan
were both there.
They had more or less witnessed the entire process of Trevor
comforting Jordyn.
Watching him carry her upstairs, soothing her and taking her up
to bathe, they only withdrew their gazes after a long while.
Upstairs, while Jordyn was in the bathroom, Trevor sent Celeste
a message. "She's calmed down. Want to give her a call in a bit?"
Celeste had been waiting for his message. She replied quickly. "
Okay.”
----
Soon after, she called Jordyn.
Jordyn was in a better mood now. Seeing that Celeste had taken
the initiative to call her, she felt a little happier still.
She waited a long moment before answering. "Hello..."
"Jo..."
Celeste held the phone, paused briefly, then asked, "Are you still
angry at me?"
Jordyn turned her face away. She wanted to say yes, but then
worried that Celeste might feel upset, so she answered very
softly, "A little..."
"Im sorry. It's my fault," Celeste said
Hearing that, Jordyn's heart softened, but the hurt was still there.
She said, "Mom, you can't keep breaking your promises like this
in the future, okay?”
Celeste was silent for a moment. "...Okay. | got it."
