Chapter 166
Martha had also noticed that Celeste was no longer as proactive with Trevor as before.
Hearing this, she couldn't help but sigh, giving Trevor a sidelong glance. “It’s all your fault!”
Celeste had taken the initiative for so long, and he still hadn't responded. Wouldn't she eventually feel
disheartened and withdraw?
Trevor only smiled faintly without saying a word.
Celeste, on the other hand, remained silent as much as possible. Even after hearing this, she simply continued
eating, showing no intention of speaking.
Before dinner was even finished, Trevor's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, got up, and walked away to
answer it.
But he returned quickly.

After dinner, he told Martha, “I have something to take care of, so I'll be leaving first.”
Jordyn was sharp enough to guess that the call had likely cfrom Wynn. She also wanted to go to the hospital
to see her, so she said, “Daddy, | want to go too.”
“Alright.”
Martha added, “Take Cel with you. Tomorrow is Saturday. It’s a good chance for you all to get out and relax.”
Only then did Celeste speak. “Grandma, | have to meet a friend later.”
Martha hesitated. “Alright then.”
Jordyn had been worried that Celeste might follow them, but hearing this, she felt relieved. As they got into the
car to leave, she said to Celeste, “Mom, goodbye.”
Celeste replied, “Alright, goodbye.”
The car door closed, and soon, Trevor's car drove away.
Celeste also got into her car and left. Once she was out of the Fleming Manor, she made a call to Matthias while
driving.
As soon as he answered, she got straight to the point. “I'm divorcing Trevor. He just gavea divorce
agreement. He's dividing sassets to me. | want a lawyer to review it and check for any legal loopholes.”
Matthias was in the middle of dinner when he heard this.
Overjoyed, he immediately said, “I'll get you a reliable lawyer right away!”
Celeste chuckled. “Alright.” After hanging up, she drove home.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Jordyn and Trevor were still in the ward talking with Wynn.
Miles, however, had stepped out into the hallway to make a call. He told Beck, “Trevor is going through with the
divorce.”
Beck was currently out of town. Hearing this, he stopped in his tracks. “What?”

Then, after a brief pause, he asked, “Are you sure?”
“Of course, I'm sure, | was there when it happened. What's there to doubt?” Miles added, “And Trevor didn’t give
her custody of Jo either.”

Beck gripped his phone tightly.
Miles continued, “But-“Before he could finish, Beck cut him off.
“I have something to do. | need to make a call.” Without waiting for a response, he hung up.
“What's so urgent?” Miles muttered.
Meanwhile, Beck had already found Celeste’s number. He hesitated for a moment before dialing.
At that moment, Celeste had just arrived home. Seeing his call, she casually answered. “Mr. Harper, what's the
matter?”
“You...” He wanted to ask about her and Trevor, but it wasn’t his place to interfere
Even a simple “Are you okay?” felt inappropriate, given his current position.
Celeste, however, assumed he was calling to arrange a meeting with Shanice.
Noticing his hesitation, she spoke first. “If it’s about seeing Shanice, | have things to take care of tomorrow, so |
might not be available. Could we do it the day after tomorrow or next week?”
