Chapter 247
Celeste placed the cake box into the fridge.
Just as Jordyn finished her bath, her phone rang.
It was Trevor who called.
She answered the call. “Dad?”
“I just received a message from your grandpa, and he’s coming back in the afternoon tomorrow. I’ll send someone to pick you up after school, and we’ll have dinner at home. Go tell your mom about this.”
Trevor’s father, Lincoln Fleming, worked for the government.
He was usually busy working, and he seldom had time to visit his family.
The night Martha took a fall, Lincoln rushed back at dawn but left again before the sun even rose.
Now, with her still in the hospital, Lincoln arranged for two days off so he could return and spend New Year’s Day with her.
Upon hearing what Trevor had just said, Jordyn replied, “Okay, got it.”
After speaking, she suddenly remembered that Trevor had said “pick you up” on the phone–not “pick you both up“.
That meant Celeste wasn’t part of the plan.
Hence, she turned to Celeste and asked, “Are you not joining us, Mom?”
In the past, whenever Lincoln came home, Martha would always insist that Celeste and Jordyn join the gathering at the Fleming Manor–whether or not Trevor was present.
Since it had become a routine, even at her young age, Jordyn instinctively linked her grandfather’s return with having dinner at the Fleming Manor.
Just as Celeste was about to answer, Trevor interrupted, “Your mom is busy tomorrow.”
“Okay then.”
Jordyn had the call on speakerphone, so Celeste heard everything.
This was the first time she learned that Lincoln had returned.
She and Trevor were already in the middle of divorce proceedings.
At this point, there was no reason for her to go back and see his family.
Trevor was clearly on the same page.
Thus, before she even had a chance to say anything, he had already offered a justification for her absence.
Without another word, Trevor ended the call.
The next afternoon, Beck and his company’s core engineers came to YodaVision for a business meeting.
Lately, he had been extremely cooperative, sparing Celeste a great deal of trouble.
As a result, she treated him with more courtesy than before

As soon as he arrived, she set aside her tasks to greet him personally.
Beck’s phone rang about an hour later.
It was Trevor who had called.
Beck excused himself and went outside to answer the call.
He fell silent for two seconds after Trevor spoke, then answered simply, “Okay.”
Before the words had fully settled, Trevor suddenly added, “My father’s back and will be home for dinner tonight. I’ll have to rely on you for this.”
“Mr. Fleming is back?”
After a quick pause, Beck asked again, “How long will he be staying this time?”
“A few days, I think.”
Hanging up the call, Beck went back to the meeting room. He studied Celeste with a thoughtful expression.
She was focused on her conversation with his engineers and didn’t notice his gaze.
As their discussion wrapped up and she stood to see them out, Beck asked, “Working late again tonight?”
“Yeah, there are still a few things to take care of,” Celeste answered without giving it much thought.
Beck’s eyes darkened slightly.
So, she wasn’t going back to the Fleming Manor with Trevor tonight.
Something shifted inside him. “Are you free later? Let’s have dinner together.”
Celeste shook her head. “No, I have too much work. I can’t leave.”
Hearing that, Beck almost suggested ordering food for her instead.

Trevor is already so thick skinned. He chuckled and laughed off when jibed. He seems oblivious and unfazed with all those animosities shown to him especially from Betty, Matthias and Celeste. Hope he breaks down one day and regrets for the mistakes and hurt he has caused to Celeste. I wonder who drugged him which he ended up by marrying Celeste and despising her along with his friends. The Shawn and Locket families are evil and despicable; with that kind of mentalities. Trevor is indeed blind....
This book needs to be ignored for 2 weeks in order to get something out of it when you read. The chapters are too short and you come out with nothing when reading one chapter. If this book wasn't so nice and I wasn't so far with it, I would have quit reading....
