The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 496

Seeing that Kieran was clearly here to see Celeste, Trevor paused his steps for a moment. He glanced at Kieran, but said nothing before turning and walking away.

Watching Trevor's departing figure, then glancing back at Celeste—still in her robe, clearly fresh from the shower—Kieran's brows furrowed slightly as he put the pieces together.

It was obvious that Trevor had also come looking for her.

But there shouldn't be any dealings between Trevor and Celeste.

Even if it were business, it should have been Lazarus from Fleming Group approaching Matthias—not Trevor himself, and certainly not at this hour.

Noticing the thoughtful look in Kieran's eyes, Celeste could roughly guess what he was thinking, but she didn't explain. Instead, she asked, "It's late. Do you need something?"

Pulled from his thoughts, Kieran answered, "I had an idea just now that I wanted to discuss with you in detail."

The "idea," of course, referred to work.

Celeste nodded. "Come in."

She was staying in a spacious luxury suite with its own workspace.

Once Kieran sat down on the sofa, he couldn't hold back his question: "Why did Mr. Fleming come to see you so late?"

Then, he quickly added, lest she misunderstood. "I don't mean anything by it. I was just... surprised."

When he'd stumbled upon them earlier, neither Celeste nor Trevor had looked the least bit flustered. That alone showed there was nothing between them.

Still, he couldn't make sense of why Trevor would come see her alone.

Celeste opened her laptop. Her face expressionless, she replied flatly, "He wanted to talk about something personal."

Personal?

Kieran froze, then suddenly remembered Wynn. That's when it struck him—Celeste and Wynn had a personal feud.

So, was Trevor here to smooth things over between them?

Celeste nodded. "Alright. Organize the notes from earlier, I'll dry it now."

"Alright."

She returned to the bedroom to blow her hair dry.

When she came back out, they had only just resumed their discussion when her phone chimed with a message notification.

Celeste picked it up and glanced at the screen.

It was from Trevor. "Jo says you still haven't replied to her."

Only then, with his reminder, did Celeste realize she had nearly forgotten all about Jordyn calling her.

She typed back. "Got it."
