The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 558

Celeste thought so too.

When there were fewer disputes between both parties, filing for divorce could go quite smoothly.

However, she would soon have to make a trip to the military base, and her departure and return dates were uncertain.

If she filed for divorce as the plaintiff and missed the court date, her case would be dismissed. In that case, it might be better to proceed with a divorce by mutual consent instead.

At least with divorce by mutual consent, once the mandatory waiting period ended, she and Trevor could go collect the divorce certificate at their own convenience. Things might even go more smoothly that way.

Since she was sure that if Trevor had time, he would be the first to contact her to finalize the divorce at the courthouse, she hadn't bothered to reach out to him yesterday.

After all, if he was busy, there was no point in her pushing him every day.

But now—

Celeste looked up at Trevor's figure, a faint frown forming between her brows.

If a party filed for divorce, the defendant didn't have to appear in court. It wasn't impossible to have Trevor file as the plaintiff instead, but—

Matthias knew she was considering filing for divorce and also knew what she was worried about. So, he asked, "Still haven't decided?"

Celeste shook her head.

Matthias understood her dilemma.

Trevor was too biased toward Wynn and her family. They couldn't be sure that if Trevor filed the case, he wouldn't suddenly change the terms of their prior agreement on the day of the hearing if Celeste couldn't attend.

If he did that while she wasn't there, she would definitely be at a disadvantage.

Celeste didn't actually want anything from Trevor.

In their divorce agreement, she had already given up custody of Jordyn, and as for his assets, she didn't necessarily need them.

But the thought of forfeiting everything and letting Wynn and the Shaws benefit from it didn't sit well with her either.

Trevor didn't reply. He gave Celeste one last look before turning to leave.

As they watched him walk away, Matthias frowned and said, "Is there some issue with this project inside Fleming Group?"

So, even if this meeting seemed unnecessary for him to attend, there must have been some reason behind it—perhaps something they didn't yet know.

Celeste had thought of that too.

She shook her head. "No idea. I haven't heard anything unusual from the others I've spoken with."

Matthias frowned and said quietly, "Keep an eye out, just in case. If something happens, we'll need to respond quickly."

Celeste nodded, refocusing her thoughts on work. "Got it."
