Chapter 199

Celeste said, “You guys go ahead. I won’t be joining.”

Jordyn blinked in surprise. “Huh? Mom, you’re not coming?”

“Mm.” She gently patted Jordyn’s head. “I’m heading off first. Have a great meal.”

“Oh…”

Celeste smiled but didn’t say more. Without looking back, she turned and left.

Trevor watched her retreating figure but didn’t call her back. Instead, he said to Jordyn, “Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Trevor gave a calm hum in response and then chuckled. “You’re only finding out now?”

“How dare you!” Martha was livid. “What are you trying to do? Are you… planning to divorce Cel?” Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so blatant about it.
