Chapter 664
Jordyn finally brightened up.
She said happily, "Then... Tomorrow | want to go over and spend
the New Year with you and Granny."
“Okay,” Celeste agreed without hesitation. She was naturally
happy too.
“What do you want to eat tomorrow? | can make it for you.”
Jordyn rattled off several dish names in one go, and Celeste
agreed to every single one.
After chatting for a while longer, Celeste hung up.
The next day, Celeste got up early and went out with her uncle
and aunt to buy groceries.
After they returned, Celeste was in the kitchen making ravioli
with her aunt when the sound of a car came from outside.
Adeline smiled. "That should be Jo arriving."
Celeste nodded. After finishing the dumpling in her hands, she
washed up and walked out of the kitchen.
The moment she stepped out, she froze when she saw Trevor
standing at the door.

Jordyn ran over excitedly. "Mom, we're here!"
Celeste snapped back to her senses, nodded, then
unconsciously looked at Trevor again.
The rest of the Rodriguez family was also surprised to see him.
After a brief pause, they quickly stood up and politely invited
him inside.
Trevor had brought a lot of gifts—so many that the coffee table
in the living room was completely covered
Seeing this, the Rodriguez family felt a little embarrassed. "You
didn't have to bring so much. Coming over was already enough."
“t's only proper," Trevor replied as he sat down.

Celeste also recovered from her surprise and went over to pour
him a glass of water.
“Thank you," he said as he took it.
Noticing the apron tied around her waist, dusted with a bit of
flour, he asked, "Making ravioli?"
"Yes.
Jordyn chimed in eagerly, "It's the filling | like, right?"
----
Celeste nodded. “That's right.”
Since he was already there, Celeste followed basic courtesy and
made small talk. "Aren't there guests at the manor?"
“There are, but the family can handle them," Trevor replied.
"1 see," Celeste said.
Jordyn was still a child after all. So, she quickly lost interest in
their polite conversation and ran off.
Celeste and Ivan chatted with Trevor for a bit when Jordyn
suddenly ran out of the kitchen and asked, "Mom, didn't you
prepare any dishes that Dad likes?"
Celeste froze and instinctively looked at Trevor, who was sitting
calmly on the sofa.
She and the rest of the Rodriguez family had assumed he was
only here to drop Jordyn off and would leave after sitting for a
while.
But from what Jordyn said, did that mean—
At that moment, Trevor looked back at her.
Without a word being spoken, Celeste understood from his gaze
that he was actually planning to stay at the Rodriguez residence

for lunch
She was stunned.
The rest of the Rodriguez family was stunned as well.
Trevor set down his teacup. "Sorry to intrude."
Celeste quickly realized that he was doing this for Jordyn's sake.
Although the Rodriguez family hadn't heard of any progress
between Celeste and Trevor, they did know that the divorce had
been postponed for the child.
Given the situation, they immediately understood that this was
entirely for Jordyn.
Since it was for the child, they naturally treated him with
courtesy. 2
Celeste stood up. “You guys can chat. I'll go help out in the
kitchen.”
"Do you need a hand?" Trevor asked.
He couldn't cook at all. 2
Celeste knew he was just being polite. "No need. We can
manage. Just sit. It'll take a while before the food's ready."
“That's fine. Jo and | already had breakfast, so we're not hungry."

"...Okay," Celeste replied.
