The Breaking Point of Love

Chapter 445 On Monday , Celeste went to work as usual . With the high volume of work , she contimed rumming between Vetra and YodaVision . On Tuesday evening , while getting off work and standing in the elevator , Celeste glanced at the date on her phone and lowered her gaze . Having worked all day , Matthias was exhausted too . He suddenly had a hunch and asked , " Tomorrow should be the last day of the cooling - off period , right ?

" Celeste put her phone back into her bag and replied , " Yes , " After all these years between her and Trevor , they were finally about to end things for good . Matthias wasn't sure if he should feel happy for her or sad . Though he had nothing but resentment toward Trevor , thinking of how Celeste had loved him for so many years , only to end up like this , he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for her . Still , no matter how hard something was , there would be a day when it ended .

Once the divorce was finalized , Celeste would finally be able to truly start over . Thinking this , he patted her shoulder comfortingly but didn't say much . The next morning , after her run and breakfast , Celeste returned to the office and was just about to start work when her phone rang . It was a call from Trevor . They had agreed earlier that on the first day after the cooling - off period ended , they would officially register the divorce .

So , it was only natural that Trevor would call . She answered , " Hello . " Before he could say anything , she said , " I'll be there on time at nine in the morning tomorrow- Trevor interrupted her , " I'm currently overseas on a business trip . Celeste paused . Before she could say anything , he added , " I probably won't be able to make it back for a few more days . We might need to delay registering the divorce . " 2 Celeste furrowed her brows and stayed silent .

Sensing her displeasure , Trevor apologized , " I'm sorry . This was my fault . " Celeste took a deep breath . After a brief pause , she finally said , " Got it . " Without waiting for him to speak again , she ended the call . She rubbed her forehead , trying to steady her emotions , but her phone rang again almost immediately . This time , it wasn't from Trevor . It was Caleb . Celeste frowned deeper . She'd likely be visiting the military base often in the future .

Even if they weren't constantly bumping into each other , they'd still run into each other now and then . 1/3 Chapter 445 Though she had a good impression of Caleb , she truly didn't have that kind of interest in him . Answering his call now would give him hope . But not answering it ride . After hesitating a while , she finally picked up . " Hello . " On the other end , Caleb's voice was warm and pleasant . " Are you basy ? " " Kind of .

" Perhaps sensing the frustration in her tone , he chuckled lightly . " haven't started my vacation yet . Just had a moment today , so 1 I thought I'd give you a call . Even if my call bothers you , I regret to inform you - I don't plan to stop . " Celeste was dumbfounded . Before she could say anything , Caleb asked , " How have you been lately ? Still busy with work ? " " Yeah , very busy . " " And the divorce ?

" he asked , clearly concerned about her well - being but also curious about her marital status . " I know this might be a little forward , but I'still want to ask - you two … were supposed to finalize it tomorrow , right ? " Caleb didn't know many details about her marriage . But he had the vague impression that it was the husband who wanted the divorce and that Celeste had just gone along with it . Because of that , he had assumed there was no real obstacle to the divorce going through .

So before she could answer , he continued , " I'll be busy for a few more days . Once I'm free- " Celeste cut him off and said bluntly , " That was the plan , but it's been postponed . " Caleb's smile froze . After two seconds , he asked , " Can I ask why ? Was it your decision , or his " " He went abroad on a business trip . He won't be back in time tomorrow . " " So , once he's back , you'll go finalize it right away ? " " … Yes . " That was good .noveldrama

Caleb thought to himself that hopefully , by the time he had vacation , they would have already officially divorced . Though he didn't say that out loud . At that moment , Celeste said , " Mr. Jennings , I actually picked up your call because I wanted to- " But he interrupted her . " I know . You're going to tell me that answering my call doesn't mean you're interested , and that you only answered out of politeness and maybe to gently turn me down again . I know .

" " You- " " I know , " Caleb said with a light laugh . He found her honesty rather endearing . " But my stance won't change . " Then he added , " I don't have much time now . Once I'm done with everything , I'll come find you for a meal . See you soon . ' Without waiting for a reply , he hung up . " 2/3
