Chapter 280

Just after Jordyn called Celeste, the car Trevor sent to pick fordyn up showed up.

In the end, Jordyn didn’t manage to see Celeste before she left.

As she reached the private lounge, Jordyn ran straight into Trevor’s arms. “Dad, Wynn, hi!”

Smiling, Trevor softly ruffled her hair. Wynn helped Jordyn set her backpack aside,

Beck, Miles, and Linda were there in the private lounge as well.

Seeing how much Jordyn missed Trevor and Wynn, Miles duckled and said, “See? I told you, Trevor. You should’ve brought Jo along on the trip. Look how upset shes. If you’d stayed away any longer, Jo would probably have been in tears.”

Miles’s comment made it seem like staying with Celeste had been unfair to Jordyn.

Jordyn settled down in her seat. “I did! I went to watch a movie with Mom, and we played VR games together. We also dined out.”

Miles chimed in, “Was that all?”

“Yeah,” Jordyn responded nonchalantly. “Mom was too busy to spend time with me.”
