Trevor had been busy lately. He hadn’t even finished his meal when another call came in.
When he stepped out to answer, Wynn seemed to recall something and turned to Jordyn, 1
“Oh, right, Jo, school starts this Monday. How about I take you to school?” 4
Jordyn looked a little uneasy. “Sorry, Wynn, I already asked Mom to take me. She already agreed.” (45
“I see.” Wynn didn’t press the matter further. 4
On Sunday night, after dinner, just as Celeste was about to rest, she got a call from Jordyn.
The moment she picked up, Jordyn spoke, “Mom, tomorrow morning Dad and I will come by your place.
Then you and Dad can send me to school together.” (1)
“Alright, I got it.”
The next morning, just after Celeste had finished breakfast, Trevor and Jordyn arrived.
She had just taken her car keys and was about to head out when Jordyn hopped out of the car and pulled
her toward Trevor’s car.
“Mom, there’s no time, hurry, get in!” 2
Celeste said, “I still have to head back to the office later. It’s inconvenient without my car. I’ll drive myself and meet you at the school-”
Just then, Trevor cut in, “I’ll drive you to Yoda Vision later.” 3
Celeste was about to refuse, but Jordyn tugged at her arm, bouncing with excitement. “Yes, let Dad drive
you! Hurry, Mom!” 3)
Celeste frowned slightly, hesitated for a second, then finally got in the car.
She was wearing a custom white lace dress today. It gave her a quiet, elegant air that perfectly matched her temperament.
Once she was seated, Jordyn couldn’t help blurting out, “Mom, you look so pretty today!” (4
At that, Trevor also turned his head and gave her a couple of extra glances, (3)
Celeste’s reply was calm. “Thank you.”
He looked at her again before asking, “What time’s the meeting at Fleming Group this afternoon?” 2

“3:00 pm.
“Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?” 2
Pick her up? If he actually sent his car for her and someone saw, wouldn’t that risk exposing their
relationship? 2
Still, given the current collaboration between their companies and the fact that lately they’d been appearing together more often in public, it wouldn’t be hard to brush it off if someone happened to see
her getting out of his car.
Even so, whether he was worried about exposure or not, she didn’t need him to send anyone for her.
She said evenly, “No need. I can ride with someone else.” 2
“Alright.”
After that, it was mostly Jordyn and Celeste talking. Trevor kept quiet.
At school, both Trevor and Celeste escorted Jordyn in.
Standing side by side, the two of them looked striking together, drawing plenty of attention. 1
Seeing that Jordyn was dropped off by both her parents, Donna assumed the couple’s relationship had
improved.
Feeling genuinely happy for Celeste, she greeted her warmly, “Ms. Rodriguez, long time no see.”
Celeste nodded politely. “Long time no see.‘
”
They chatted for a while, and once the time was almost up, Celeste gave Jordyn a few last reminders
before she and Trevor turned to leave. (3)
Celeste only lowered her head and pulled out her phone to open a ride–hailing app after they could no longer see Jordyn and Donna, 12
