During lunch , Celeste bought movie tickets . After eating , they watched the movie and then went shopping for a
while .
While Jamie was trying on clothes and Hector was buying figurines , Celeste sald to Jordyn , “ I’ll take you home later . ”
“ Home ? ” Sitting beside her , Jordyn said , “ I don’t want to go home . I want to stay at Granny’s for another night , I’ll go back tomorrow evening . ”
Celeste took a sip of water and said , “ Jamie and Hector have spent the whole day with you . Tomorrow , they need to focus on their homework . If you stay at Granny’s , you’ll distract them .”
“ I don’t need them to play with me . I can play on my tablet by myself . ”
Celeste didn’t say anything more , but she found a moment to send Trevor a message , asking him to have someone pick Jordyn up later .
Trevor was probably busy , as he didn’t reply for a long time
After Jamie finished shopping , they walked around a bit more before heading back to the Rodriguez residence .
Betty and Ivan were genuinely happy to see Jordyn . They truly adored her .
Jordyn was quite sweet and charming-
After dinner , she even accompanied Betty on a walk , making her extremely happy .
However , there was no reply from Trevor .
That night , Jordyn ended up staying over at the Rodriguez residence .
The next day , Jamie and Hector stayed in their rooms to do their homework as planned . And true to her word , Jordyn kept herself entertained downstairs and quietly sat beside Celeste without causing any disturbance .
At that moment , Trevor sent Celeste a message saying he would send someone to pick Jordyn up soon .
Celeste didn’t reply .
A few seconds later , Jordyn’s phone rang . She looked at Celeste and said , “ It’s Dad calling . ”
Celeste responded with a simple hum .
Whatever Trevor said on the other end , it made Jordyn put down her phone and tell Celeste , “ Mom , Dad says he’s taking me out to play … ”
“ Mm , your dad told me . If you want to go , then go . ”
“ Okay ! ”
Half an hour later , the car Trevor sent arrived .
Betty was reluctant to see Jordyn leave , as always . She prepared a bunch of food and snacks for her to take home .
Watching the car drive away , Betty grumbled , “ I used to think he was quite generous , but now … It’s only been two days , and he’s already in a hurry to take her back . ”

After saying that , she didn’t wait for Celeste’s response . Feeling reluctant and melancholic , she went back inside .
Just then , Celeste’s phone rang . It was Jason calling .
He said , “ I just met with Trevor’s lawyer . I’ve received the new divorce agreement . The three additional properties are worth about one billion in total – there are no issues . ”
Celeste replied , “ Got it . ”
Jason continued , “ Trevor’s lawyer also mentioned that if you need money urgently , he can pay a portion of the assets into your account in advance . What do you think ? ”
Yesterday , Trevor had misunderstood her intentions .
The two birthday gifts he gave Betty had already been auctioned off , and the money had already been credited .
Ivan was not short on funds anymore .
However , Celeste said , “ Go ahead with the advance . ”
Their divorce wasn’t finalized yet – anything could still change . Since he was willing to give it to her , why shouldn’t she take it ?
After all , if she didn’t take it now , there was no guarantee it would still be there later .
Jason responded , “ Alright , I’ll take care of it . ”
