Celeste murmured a reply .
Jordyn paused , realizing that Celeste might not know who Shanice was , and quickly added , “ Shanice is my friend . –she calls Mr. Harper her uncle . ”
Celeste responded softly , noticing how eager she was to share . “ What did you guys do ? ”
“ We explored a maze ! ”
Celeste listened without much reaction , but Betty’s expression grew stern .
When Trevor took Jordyn back , she thought he would be looking after Jordyn himself .
It was only now that she realized Trevor wasn’t taking care of Jordyn himself . Instead , he was focused on dating Wynn and would rather leave her with someone else than let Celeste care for her .
Betty’s face soured .
Jordyn had no clue what Betty was thinking .
Then , she added , “ Mr. Harper asked me to stay for dinner , but I want to come back , so I called you . ”
Celeste nodded . “ Did you thank him then ? ” she asked .
“ Yes , I did ! ” Jordyn replied cheerfully .
Celeste didn’t ask any further .
Since Jordyn had finished her homework , she stayed in the living room with Celeste and Betty after she finished her meal .
Sitting beside Jordyn , Betty asked , “ Jo , do you want to stay here at Granny’s for a longer time ? “ .
Before Celeste could reply , Jordyn chimed in , “ I’d love to ! ”
“ Jo , you made a promise to me , so no take – backs ! You have to stay for at least a week . ‘
“ Awesome ! ”
Celeste , however , furrowed her brows .
Pleased , Betty patted Jordyn’s hand affectionately .
”
While Jordyn was engrossed in her game , Betty said to Celeste , “ There’s a difference when you’ve raised a child yourself . You see , Jo is still very attached to you . ”
Upon hearing that , Celeste just smiled .
Jordyn scooted closer , asking Celeste to play with her .
Celeste stared at her and asked , “ Are you sure you want to stay here ? ”
She had a feeling that while Jordyn agreed without hesitation now , she might change her mind in a few days and want to go back to Trevor and Wynn .
Jordyn didn’t catch on to what Celeste was implying right away .
It only dawned on her two seconds later . “ Of course , I’ve promised Granny ! ” she replied .

Hence , Celeste remained silent .
Jordyn’s eyes lit up as she recalled something . “ Oh ! I forgot to tell Dad . I’ll give him a call now . ”
Trevor picked up the call almost immediately .
When he heard what Jordyn had said , he simply responded , ‘ Got it . If you need anything , just give me a call , and I’ll have it sent over . ”
“ Okay . ”
Seconds later , Jordyn hung up the call .
Betty had initially feared that Trevor wouldn’t allow Jordyn to stay .
For a moment , she wanted to prevent Jordyn from making the call , but she knew she couldn’t .
Noticing Jordyn’s bright mood after the call , she asked , “ So , he said yes ? ”
“ Yeah ! ” Jordyn replied cheerfully .
As her words fell , she asked in confusion again , “ Why wouldn’t he ? ”
Jordyn then turned to Betty and muttered , “ Dad is super nice to me . He usually says yes to whatever I want . ”
Betty was at a loss for words all of a sudden .
Celeste didn’t interrupt their conversation either .
When it was about time , she led Jordyn upstairs to take a bath .
