However, once the family of three arrived at the underwater villa, Jordyn became so excited that she was wide awake instead.
After taking a shower, she lay excitedly on the bed, watching the schools of fish swimming above her head.
Perhaps because he felt it wouldn’t be appropriate for them to sleep together, Trevor had the staff arrange a luxury family room. There were two beds placed side by side in the room.
That meant that although she and Trevor were staying in the same room tonight, they would be sleeping in separate beds. 2
After her shower, Celeste changed into the pajamas she’d brought with her and sat down by the bed where Jordyn was lying.
At that moment, Trevor also came out after showering in the other bathroom.
He sat down on the other bed.

Seeing how delighted Jordyn looked, he asked, “You like it that much?”
Jordyn replied enthusiastically, “I do!”
As she spoke, she rolled over to Celeste’s side. “Mom, I want to sleep with you.”
Celeste replied, “Okay.”
In the end, Jordyn really was sleepy. After happily clinging to Celeste for a while, she turned her head and fell asleep.
Celeste tucked the blanket around her. At that moment, Trevor looked over from the other bed and said, “Good night.”
Celeste paused for a moment before replying, “Good night.”
After that, she lay down beside the bed. Not long after, Trevor turned off the lights, and the room fell into silence.
The next day, when Celeste woke up, she was the only one left in the room.
It took her a while to fully wake up.
After washing up, she left the underwater villa, and just as she stepped outside, she happened to run into Trevor, who had already taken Jordyn out to play and brought her back.
Trevor looked at her, smiled slightly, and greeted her first. “Morning.”
Celeste replied, “…Morning.”
Jordyn ran toward her happily with a small bucket in her hand. “Mom! Dad took me to comb the beach early this morning. We caught so much seafood!”
“Really?” Celeste said, rubbing Jordyn’s little face.
Feeling that the wind was a bit strong today, she added, “Wasn’t it cold going out so early?”
“It was cold when we went out, but it’s not cold now.” (1

Celeste was about to say something else when Trevor suddenly asked her, “Have you had breakfast?”
Celeste shook her head.
Trevor took out his phone. “What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone send it over.”
“It’s fine. I’ll contact someone myself.”
Trevor was just about to make the call. Hearing that, he didn’t insist. “Alright.”
While Celeste was eating breakfast, Trevor was some distance away, accompanying Jordyn as they organized her spoils” from the past two days.
Celeste was watching them when her phone suddenly rang.
It was Matthias.
“What are you doing? Free for lunch?”
Celeste answered honestly, “I’m on vacation. Maybe next time.”
“Vacation?”
Hearing that she wasn’t free, Matthias didn’t mind. But hearing that she was out for fun, he became interested. ” Where did you go? With your family? Was it fun?” 1
“A private island,” Celeste said.
After taking a bite of seafood porridge, she added, “With Jordyn and… Trevor, As for whether it’s fun… It’s just so- so.”

Hearing that, Matthias raised an eyebrow. “You actually went out with them? Left early in the morning?”
Celeste continued, “We came yesterday morning.”
Matthias caught on. “So, you took the kid and stayed out overnight together?”
Celeste replied calmly with a soft hum.
Matthias imagined the scene of her and Trevor taking care of a child together, then asked, “How did it feel?” Celeste said evenly, “It’s just the two of us taking the kid out for some fun together. We’re minding our own business, not crossing each other’s lines. There’s nothing much to feel.” 2
She felt that Trevor probably thought the same way.
As parents, they were simply coming together to take care of their child. 3
