Chapter 298
Celeste was just about to speak when Trevor’s phone rang again .
It was probably Wynn . As he walked toward the door , he picked up the call and said gently , “ It’s not too serious , no need to worry too much-

After Trevor stepped out to take the call and returned , Jordyn had woken up . Seeing both of them , she sleepily called out , “ Daddy , Mommy . ”
Celeste and Trevor responded at the same time , “ Yes . ”
Maybe her head was still spinning – lying in bed , Jordyn glanced at Trevor , then at Celeste . Not long after waking , she frowned in discomfort and drifted back to sleep .
Worried about disturbing her rest , Celeste and Trevor fell into a natural silence . After Jordyn had fully settled into sleep again , Trevor turned to Celeste . “ Are you staying ? ”
Celeste didn’t respond , but by remaining in her seat , she had already given her answer .
Trevor didn’t say anything more either . He simply went over to the other couch and sat down .
Celeste stayed seated in the chair by the bed , and after a while , without realizing it , she dozed off .
By the time she woke again , daylight had broken .
She was lying on Jordyn’s hospital bed .
Celeste blinked in surprise . Last night , she clearly – she paused and looked toward the couch .
Trevor was sleeping with his head propped against his hand . Whether it was a coincidence or he had felt her gaze , he suddenly opened his eyes and met hers .
Celeste looked away , saying nothing . She didn’t ask if it had been him who had carried her to the bed .
Trevor didn’t bring it up either .
He straightened his legs and asked , “ Are you going home for breakfast or eating here ? ”
Celeste didn’t answer . She had her own plans .
Seeing that she didn’t want to talk to him , Trevor wasn’t upset , but didn’t press further .
A short while later , Jordyn woke up .
As the doctor came in to examine her , Peter and Hannah entered the room carrying breakfast .
When they saw Celeste , they greeted her in unison , “ Mrs. Fleming . ”
At the title , Celeste frowned slightly , but said nothing .
Peter and Hannah placed the breakfast on the coffee table . Trevor had instructed them to bring a portion for Celeste as well .
Peter said , “ Mrs. Fleming , why don’t you come eat something ? ”
Celeste shook her head , then said to Jordyn , who was eating breakfast , “ Mommy’s going home to take a sho I’ll come back and see you later . ”
“ Okay , ” Jordyn , who was still woozy , replied weakly . “ But Mommy , come back soon . ”

“ I will . ”
Celeste picked up her bag , gave Jordyn one last glance , then turned and left .
Back home , she showered , ate breakfast , and returned to the hospital .
On the way , she called Matthias , told him about what had happened to Jordyn , and said , “ I’ll check on the situation . I might not be back to the office until the afternoon . ”
No matter what , Jordyn was her daughter . Something like this had happened – of course , Celeste should be there to care for her .
Matthias simply replied , “ Alright . ”
When she arrived at the hospital and entered the room , she saw Beck and Miles .
Miles glanced at her and curled his lips , but said nothing . Beck looked like he wanted to speak – but with Trevor here , it wasn’t his place .
He lowered his gaze and turned his head slightly toward Trevor .
Trevor looked at Celeste and took the initiative . “ You’re here ? ”
Just then , Jordyn also called out , “ Mommy . ”
Celeste looked at her . “ Yes . ”
Beck and Miles had work to get back to and didn’t stay long . After saying goodbye to Jordyn and giving Celeste a glance , they left together .
Jordyn’s condition wasn’t too serious , and only one person needed to stay with her . Celeste thought Trevor would leave with them .
But he didn’t . He remained in the room , staying by Jordyn’s side while also handling work .
Celeste said nothing about it .
That afternoon , not long after Jordyn fell asleep , Celeste also closed her eyes and rested for a bit .
When she woke , she saw Peter in the room .
At that moment , she heard Trevor , typing on his laptop , say to Peter , “ Mrs. Fleming is awake – go bring her the soup . ”
Peter responded cheerfully and walked over carrying a ceramic jar . “ Mrs. Fleming , Mr. Fleming had someone prepare this for you . Would you like some ? ”
Celeste was still groggy from sleep . After a moment , once she had fully processed what was said , she frowned slightly and looked at Trevor .
It was understandable that Peter and Hannah , out of habit , still called her “ Mrs. Fleming ” without thinking . But Trevor – why was he joining in ?
Just then , Jordyn woke up . Celeste didn’t dwell on it any further .
The next morning , Jordyn was feeling much better . Her dizziness had eased up , and after the doctor examined her and confirmed she was fine , Trevor arranged for her to be discharged .
Though Jordyn was no longer in danger , she still needed two or three more days of rest .

Holding Celeste’s hand , Jordyn asked , “ Mommy , are you going back to work ? Can’t you stay home with me for a bit ? ”
Celeste said , “ Next time . ”
Since Jordyn was alright , she had fulfilled her duty as a mother . As for Trevor’s villa – she wasn’t going back there again .
Jordyn pouted . “ Okay then . ”
Trevor , who was standing to the side , finally spoke . “ Jo , say goodbye to Mommy , ”
Jordyn waved at Celeste . “ Bye , Mommy . ”
“ Bye . ”
Celeste replied , got into her car , and quickly drove away from the hospital .
