Chapter 75
Celeste bathed Jordyn and blow – dried her hair .
Jordyn was quietly looking at Celeste , who was blow – drying her hair . She suddenly realized Celeste wasn’t as talkative as before .
Back then , Celeste would keep the conversation going with various topics .
Celeste noticed how Jordyn was gazing at her . It looked as if Jordyn was lost in thought . Celeste asked , “ What’s wrong ? “ !
Jordyn shook her head . “ Nothing . ”
She must be overthinking .
Or perhaps , Celeste wasn’t in the mood to talk .
After her hair was dried , Jordyn rolled on the bed . “ Mom , are you staying with me for the night ? ”
Celeste paused for a moment before answering , “ Do you want me to stay with you , Jo ? ”
“ I’m okay with it ! But Mom , you haven’t been with Dad much lately . Don’t you want to sleep with Dad ? ”
“ Right . I’ll go back to my room later on . ”
Celeste and Trevor still hadn’t completed their divorce paperwork . If Jordyn didn’t ask her to stay and she insisted on it , it would cause a huge fuss once Martha knew about it
Celeste noticed that her room’s light was still on when she left Jordyn’s room .
Trevor was at the desk , typing away on his laptop . He was probably working on something .
He glanced at Celeste as he noticed her entering the room .
Celeste shifted her gaze and went straight to the wardrobe . Then , she took a set of fresh clothes and went to the bathroom for a shower .
When she was done with the shower , Trevor was still preoccupied with his laptop .
Celeste was dressed in pajamas . She sat down on the bed and went through her skincare routine . She decided to read for a while since it was still early .
They were both focused on their own things in the bedroom and were not interacting at all .
As the time got closer to midnight , Celeste felt sleepy . Thus , she put away the book and turned off the bedside lamp . She lay down and got ready to sleep .
She thought she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep since it had been a while since she slept with Trevor .
However , she thought about how Trevor might head to Wynn’s after work to stay the night .
Trevor might not actually stay here overnight .
With those thoughts in mind , she became drowsy . Before long , she fell asleep , lulled by the soft tapping of the keyboard in the background
Celeste had a great sleep that night . It was all warm and cozy for her .
As she was about to get up , she felt a series of warm breathe brushing her ears .

Moreover , she seemed to be hugging someone as well .
When she realized what was going on , her body became stiff instantly .
Her mind became clear all of a sudden .
Celeste opened her eyes , only to realize that she was lying in Trevor’s arms .
With both arms and legs wrapped around her , Trevor was sound asleep .
They were tightly pressed together and there was hardly any space between them .
Celeste could clearly feel his warmth .
She
thought her sleep posture was just fine .
She even moved to the side of the bed when she slept last night , thinking that they wouldn’t be able to touch each other with the huge space left between them on the bed .
Hence , it wasn’t likely for her to end up in Trevor’s arms after falling asleep .
Unless …
Unless Trevor got used to embracing Wynn in his sleep during the nights they were separated ..
He probably confused Celeste with Wynn in his drowsy state last night and hugged Celeste close in his sleep . With that conclusion in mind , Celeste withdrew her hand on Trevor’s chest . She gradually clenched it into a fist . She fidgeted while trying to escape from his embrace .
Just then , Celeste felt his arms tighten around her body . Trevor brought her closer to his chest . She was taken aback . In that instant , a kiss gently brushed her forehead . “ Just five more minutes . ”
