Chapter 662

After the Harper Corporation banquet ended, Celeste and Matthias each went home.

Jordyn had been staying at the Rodriguez residence these past two days.

When she learned that Celeste was finally on holiday, she was overjoyed. "Mom, you're finally on break! Can we go out and have fun tomorrow?"

Celeste caressed her head gently. "Where do you want to go?”

“I'll think about it first and tell you when I decide," Jordyn said.

“Alright.”

The next day, Celeste took Jordyn out. Not long after they left the house, Jordyn received a call from Trevor, reminding her that the next day was New Year's Eve and that she had to be home by that evening at the latest.

“Got it," Jordyn said cheerfully.

“I'll go back tonight with Mom, right, Mom?"

Celeste didn't want to return to the Fleming manor for the New Year.

But she had indeed promised Jordyn. And Jordyn had stayed at the Rodriguez residence precisely because she wanted to wait for Celeste to finish her work so they could go back together.
