Lauren knew Martha as well.
After greeting her, she turned her gaze to Celeste and smiled. "You must be Cel?"
It was the first time Celeste had met Lauren. So, she respectfully replied, "Yes, I am."
Lauren nodded in approval and praised, "You're very good-looking."
She had already been briefed on Isabelle's condition before arriving at the hospital.
However, instead of hastily issuing a treatment plan, she preferred to observe and further understand the situation before making any decisions.
Celeste and Betty originally planned to accompany her the whole time and invite her for lunch at noon as a gesture of gratitude.
But Lauren asked them to go home, saying she would inform them once the treatment plan was ready.
"As for the meal," she looked at Celeste and smiled, "there will be plenty of opportunities in the future—no rush."
Since she said so, Celeste and Betty had no choice but to leave for now.
After leaving the hospital, Celeste returned to work at the company, and Martha accompanied Betty back to the Rodriguez residence.
That evening, after finishing work, Celeste returned to the Rodriguez residence for dinner. Martha was still there.
After dinner, just as Martha was about to leave, she looked at Celeste and gently patted the back of her hand, letting out a sigh.
She was aware that Celeste and Trevor had gone to the courthouse a few days ago to finalize their divorce.
Since they had already made the decision, she couldn't force them otherwise. Besides, even if she wanted to interfere, some people simply wouldn't listen.
Perhaps divorcing Trevor and a fresh start were the best choices for Celeste.
With that thought, Martha simply said, "Take good care of yourself."
Celeste nodded. "I will. You take care too."
When Martha returned to the Fleming residence, she stopped in her tracks upon seeing an unexpected guest sitting in the living room.
"What are you doing back here?"
Trevor turned to glance at her. "You scolded me out of nowhere yesterday. I thought you missed me, so I came to visit."
Martha snorted and asked the housekeeper beside her, "When did he get here?"
"Around 6:00 pm. I was going to inform you, but Mr. Trevor said not to disturb you, so—"
She turned to Trevor and said, "Cel's mother has a very serious health issue. Do you know about this?"
Even though Celeste had managed to get Lauren, if Isabelle's condition was too severe, even Lauren might not be able to do anything.
Trevor replied calmly, "I know now."
His tone was flat.
Whether it was indifference or apathy, his face was calm. He didn't even look surprised. When it came to Celeste, he was still this cold and unconcerned.
He knew about the longstanding feud between the Rodriguez family and the Locket family, yet—
The more she thought about it, the more it made Martha's chest tighten.
Jordyn looked up. "Hasn't Grandma been sick for a long time?"
She remembered Celeste telling her when she was very little that Isabelle was ill and had to stay in the hospital.
"Your grandma has another illness now," Martha explained gently.
Then, without even looking at Trevor, she said coldly, "In the future, don't come telling me about your nonsense. You can leave now."

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....
