Chapter 269

When Queenie and the others arrived and didn’t see Celeste, they assumed she had gone to the airport with Trevor to pick Jordyn up.

Now that Trevor and Jordyn had returned home, but Celeste was still nowhere to be seen, they found it odd,

However, since they didn’t really care about Celeste, they couldn’t be bothered to ask.

Tucker didn’t question it and continued playing with Jordyn.

Martha, however, understood what was going on but chose to remain silent.
