Chapter 603
As there weren’t many people around, Jordyn felt that she hadn’t had enough fun and decided to save some activities for when the island officially opened to the public.
So, that afternoon, around 4:00 pm, they left the island.
By the time they got back to shore, it was already dark.
Trevor turned his head and asked, “What do you want to eat later?”
Jordyn immediately raised her hand. “Anything is fine!”
Then she asked Celeste right away, “Mom, what about you? What do you want to eat?”
Celeste wanted to say that she wouldn’t be joining them for dinner, but seeing how happy Jordyn was, ultimately didn’t say it. “Anything is fine for me too.”
Hearing that, Trevor said, “Then I’ll pick the place?”
Jordyn nodded enthusiastically. “Okay!”
More than an hour later, they arrived at a private dining restaurant.
The restaurant was elegantly decorated, and countless luxury cars were parked at the entrance.

After entering the private room and sitting down to order, Celeste realized that this was an authentic Youtopian- style cuisine restaurant.
Celeste was born in Youtopia. Although she was used to eating all kinds of cuisines, her family’s meals had always leaned toward Youtopian–style food.
Trevor handed her the menu. “These are their signature dishes. Want to try them? See if they’re authentic?”
Wynn was also from Youtopia.
Unlike Celeste, Wynn had grown up there, so her taste leaned even more heavily toward Youtopian–style cuisine. 1 Not to mention that both the Lockets and the Shaws were now in Baumond…
Celeste lowered her gaze and looked at the menu he handed her. After a two–second pause, she accepted it and said in a flat tone, “Thank you.”
She actually didn’t have much of an appetite anymore. So, she casually ordered a few dishes.
After the food was served, Celeste tasted a few bites and found the flavors genuinely good. Still, she didn’t eat much.
Jordyn, on the other hand, ate happily. Seeing that Celeste had eaten so little, she asked, “Mom, you don’t like it?
Celeste shook her head. “No, I’m just not very hungry.”
Trevor paused, seeming to understand the reason, and didn’t say anything. 1
After more than half an hour, once they finished eating, they prepared to leave.
Jordyn was actually very reluctant to part with Celeste.
As they walked out of the private room, she hugged Celeste’s leg and said in a muffled voice, “Mom, when will you come back to live at home? You’ve been staying at Granny’s for so long. Are you still not done with work? Can’t you work if you live at home?”
Celeste didn’t know how to answer for a moment and could only look at Trevor.
Trevor bent down and picked Jordyn up. “It’s more convenient for your mom to stay at Granny’s place. When she’s really finished with her work, she’ll come back to live at home.” 4”
Jordyn frowned slightly, then said, “Okay.”
After that, she reached her arms toward Celeste. “I want Mom to hold me.”
Celeste then took her from Trevor’s arms.
However, her handbag slipped down from her arm.
Trevor reached out to catch it. “I’ll hold it for you.”
“No need. It won’t fall,” Celeste said.
Helping her carry her bag was too intimate. Given their current relationship, it wasn’t appropriate.
Hearing that, Trevor didn’t insist.
When the elevator arrived, he went in together with her.
As a result, neither of them noticed that just before they entered the elevator, a group of people had also been walking toward it. 1
When they saw them, they all stopped in their tracks. 1
Linda clenched her teeth. “It’s… It’s them. Why is Trev with them again?” 5
Wynn said nothing.
Ruby forced a smile and said awkwardly, “Celeste is also from Youtopia.”
The implication was clear. Trevor had deliberately brought Celeste here to please her. 3
