The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 557

Around dinnertime, when the Lockets and the Shaws saw Wynn getting ready to head out, they finally realized that Trevor had already returned from abroad.

When they heard he'd come back that very afternoon, Ruby couldn't help stomping her foot in frustration.

"What? He came back this afternoon? If only he'd returned half a day earlier! The decision period's already over—"

Linda quickly echoed, "Exactly!"

In truth, it wasn't just them. Even Lilian and the others felt it was such a pity.

Two days ago, when Wynn told them that Trevor probably wouldn't make it back before the end of the decision period to finalize the divorce with Celeste, they still held onto a sliver of hope.

They believed that maybe, for Wynn's sake, he'd come back early and surprise her by ending things with Celeste.

But as it turned out, Trevor really didn't make it back before the decision period expired.

That was why, when they learned he had returned that very afternoon, they felt so regretful.

If he had come back just half a day earlier, he and Celeste would already be divorced by now. And because of that half day, they'd have to wait at least another month.

But there was no point talking about it anymore.

Patricia sighed, "Trevor hasn't been home for quite some time. I wonder if he'll still be busy after this. If he has some free time, Wynn, make sure he comes over for dinner. We still haven't properly thanked him for his help before."

Wynn listened quietly and replied in a calm voice, "Okay."

…

Meanwhile, after work, Celeste went out to have dinner with Matthias, Zachary, and Nadine. After dinner, she accompanied Nadine for some shopping.

By the time she got home, it was already past nine.

When she checked her phone, she found several messages from Jordyn, telling her that Trevor had brought gifts and that she'd bring them over in a few days when she had time.

He looked at them and gave a polite nod in greeting.

Celeste paused slightly while Matthias frowned.

Then, the meeting began.

Everything proceeded in an orderly, predictable way—just as they'd expected.

Trevor sat there the whole time, listening quietly. He didn't need to participate at all.

In other words, this meeting had nothing to do with him.

So, why was he there?
