Chapter 679
After saying that, Matthias asked Celeste, "What about you?
Haven't you been seeing Trevor quite often lately? Heard
anything about this?”
Celeste shook her head. "No."
Although she and Trevor met frequently, they barely spoke
beyond work matters.
Matthias frowned. "That's strange.
He couldn't figure it out, but soon didn't have time to dwell on it
as others came over to strike up conversations with them.
Not far away, Linda watched as Celeste was flattered and
fawned over, growing increasingly irritated
She lowered her voice and asked, "Weren't we supposed to get
her and Matthias firmly together? When are we making a move?"
Ruby replied, "Your grandmother and the others said today isn't
the right time or setting. We'll wait for the next opportunity.”
She, too, was as anxious as the others, but she also knew that
no matter how urgent it felt, things had to be done carefully
without leaving a single trace.

Celeste's work continued steadily.
Over the next few days, she met Trevor twice more, but both
times were strictly for business.
After seeing how professionally distant they were during
collaborations, Kieran had almost forgotten that there were
personal grievances between them. Likewise, aside from work
discussions, he and Trevor never exchanged a single word
about personal matters. 2

In the blink of an eye, it was March 8th. 3
Celeste had been busy with work lately, so she woke up a little
later than usual that day.
As soon as she came downstairs, her aunt, Adeline, greeted her
with a smile. "Cel, you're up. Someone sent you flowers. They're
all placed on the coffee table. Go take a look."
Celeste paused.
When Adeline said "flowers," she had assumed it was just one
bouquet. But when she got to the living room, she saw three.
Two of them had names, so she knew they were from Kieran
and Caleb. But the third bouquet had no signature—only a

greeting.
Her cousin, Jamie, looked curious. "They know our address, but
didn't leave a name. Who could it be? Celeste, you really have no
idea?"
Celeste shook her head.
As Jamie pointed out, she had never told Kieran or Caleb her
current address, yet they managed to deliver the flowers directly
to the Rodriguez residence. That means they must have gone
out of their way to find it.
The anonymous sender must have done the same.
Jamie lowered her voice and asked, "Could it be... um, Jo's dad?”
Celeste froze for a moment, then immediately shook her head. "
No."
Recently, Jamie had felt that Trevor's attitude toward Celeste
had changed quite a bit. So she thought it was very possible that
the flowers were from him.
She was about to say more when the sound of a car came from
outside.
A moment later, Jordyn ran in holding a bouquet. "Mom, happy
holiday!"

Just as Celeste was about to respond, she saw Trevor walk in
behind Jordyn.
Celeste took the flowers from Jordyn and said, "Thank you, Jo."
Jordyn turned to Trevor. "Mom, Dad prepared a gift for you too."
As soon as she said that, Trevor handed over the gift box he was
holding. "Happy holiday." +
“Thank you." With Jordyn there, she had no choice but to accept
it.
At that moment, Jordyn noticed the bouquets on the coffee
table. "So many flowers... Mom, were all these sent to you by
other people?"
