"He's never shown up?" Kieran asked.
"Yeah." Another colleague chimed in, "That's why a lot of us think Ms. Rodriguez is probably already divorced. I mean, it's been more than half a year, and she hasn't even mentioned him once."
"Exactly."
That actually made sense.
If Celeste weren't divorced, would Caleb dare to pursue her so publicly?
Still, Kieran couldn't calm down. It had never crossed his mind that Celeste had already been married.
As he sat there in a daze, Celeste walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
He wanted to ask, "Is it true that you're married?"
But this was the workplace, and asking personal questions like that—especially of a superior—wasn't appropriate. It might be alright once in a while, but any more would be crossing a line.
Snapping back to reality, he just said, "It's nothing."
…
That afternoon, Celeste received a phone call.
After hanging up, before the end of the workday, she told Matthias, "I might only come in tomorrow afternoon. Can you attend the morning meeting in my place?"
"Of course." Then he asked, "Did something come up?"
"My mother's going to the hospital for some health checks. I want to go with her."
Matthias wasn't aware of Isabelle's worsening condition. He thought it was just a routine check-up. So, he said, "Alright. Go ahead. I'll take care of things here."
Celeste nodded and left the company.
…
The next day, Celeste, Betty, and Adeline all arrived early at the hospital.
Even at the hospital, they had to keep a distance, afraid Isabelle might spot them.
During the checkups, Isabelle would become inexplicably agitated, struggling wildly like a madwoman. It often took multiple medical staff to hold her down to get through each procedure.
"Mom, why are you at the hospital too? Are you sick?"
"No, I'm not sick." Celeste touched her forehead. "Do you have a fever?"
"I had a fever last night, but it's gone now." Then, without waiting for Celeste to respond, Jordyn hugged her even tighter and glanced toward the approaching Trevor.
She pouted. "Last night I wanted to call you and ask you to accompany me, but Dad said you were busy."
Celeste didn't look at Trevor.
"I'm indeed busy. But I'm glad your fever's gone." She paused, then asked, "Why come to the hospital, though? What about the family doctor?"
For minor illnesses, there was usually no need to bring Jordyn to the hospital.
At that moment, Trevor spoke up, "We came for a full health check-up."
Celeste heard this but didn't ask why they needed it.
Jordyn clung to her and said excitedly, "Mom, I don't have to go to school today. Can I go with you to visit Granny?"

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....
