The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 440

Jordyn held Celeste's hand with one hand and tugged on Trevor with the other. "Let's go for lunch together!"

Celeste paused, intending to pull her hand away, but then she heard Jordyn suddenly say,

"I think it's been a really, really long time since I had a meal with both Mom and Dad."

Seeing how happy Jordyn looked, holding both her and Trevor's hands, and noticing how the other kids around them were all accompanied by both parents, Celeste hesitated.

She had insisted on keeping the baby when she got pregnant unexpectedly, and in the years that followed, Trevor had basically not been involved in Jordyn's life.

However, in the last couple of years, he started getting close to Jordyn. But it caused the mother and daughter to spend more time apart than together.

In other words, Jordyn had never truly experienced being in a "complete" family.

Celeste felt that in that sense, she had failed Jordyn. She gave birth to her, raised her—yet had barely given her a normal childhood...

No matter what kind of relationship she and Trevor might have in the future, they would always be Jordyn's biological parents.

Regarding Jordyn's future, even after the divorce, they would still have to sit down and discuss things together.

So having a meal together like this... wasn't a big deal.

"Mom?" Seeing she hadn't replied, Jordyn shook her hand and looked up at her.

Celeste came back to her senses, glanced at Trevor, wanting to ask what he thought. But just as she looked up, she saw he was already watching her from the side, as if he could read her mind.

He asked, "What should we have for lunch?"

Celeste looked away and answered calmly, "You decide."

Trevor nodded. "Okay."

A while later, they each got into their cars and headed to the restaurant.

When they arrived and entered a private dining room, Jordyn sat in the middle.

Trevor handed the menu to Celeste before asking, "Will you be going to Fleming Group this afternoon?"

"I have other things to do, I won't be going."

"Alright."

Trevor poured her a cup of tea.

Celeste didn't really speak to him much after that.

When they were done with the meal and Celeste was getting ready to leave, Jordyn tugged on her, asking her to stay a little longer.

Unable to resist, Celeste agreed.

Trevor seemed to have finished his work and wasn't in a rush to leave either. He joined them as they went to a game arcade.

Celeste didn't engage with him.

Trevor seemed to notice and didn't force it. Instead, he stood behind them, quietly watching as Celeste taught Jordyn how to play the games.

After playing for a while, Celeste remained expressionless, but Jordyn was worried her father might be bored.

"Dad, do you want to play with us?"

Trevor glanced at Celeste, who clearly wasn't paying him any attention.

He smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. I'm happy just watching you two play."

"Okay then!"
