It was still uncertain when Martha would wake up .
Celeste waited at the hospital with the others for over an hour .
Keeing that Martha still hadn’t woken up , Queenie said calmly , “ You should go back first . I’ll let you know when she wakes up or if there’s any update . ”
Celeste looked at Martha lying on the hospital bed , wearing a ventilator . After checking the time on her phone , she replied , “ It’s still early . I’d like to wait a little longer . ”
Hearing this , Queenie didn’t say anything more .
Tucker and Teagan also stayed
Celeste waited until around 11:00 pm . When the doctor said Martha’s condition had stabilized a bit but that she wouldn’t wake up anytime soon , she finally left to get some rest .
Over an hour after Celeste left , Trevor and Jordyn arrived at the hospital .
Trevor already knew that Celeste had come to visit Martha .
He and Queenie decided to stay and keep her company , while Peter would take Jordyn home to rest .
This was the first time Jordyn had ever faced life and death so directly .
Looking at Martha lying in bed , she clutched Trevor’s waist and buried her face in his chest , eyes turning red in fear . “ I don’t want to go home . I want to see Mom . ”
Trevor lifted her into his lap and looked at the time . “ It’s almost 1:00 am . now . She might already be asleep . I need to check with her first . ”
“ Oh , then I’ll call – ”
“ I’ll do it , ” Trevor offered . 3
“ Okay . ”
Trevor picked up his phone and sent Celeste a message .
“ Are you still awake ? Jordyn and I are at the hospital . I plan to stay here tonight with Grandma . Jordyn is scared after seeing her condition and wants to go to you . Is that okay ? ”
Celeste hadn’t gone to bed yet . Though it was late , she couldn’t sleep , worried about Martha .
When she was about the same age as Jordyn , her own grandfather had suffered a major accident too .
So , when she saw Trevor’s message , she immediately understood and empathized with Jordyn’s fear and helplessness .
She replied , “ Let her come . ”
“ Okay . ”
After reading his reply , Celeste was just about to put her phone down and go downstairs to get a glass of water when another message from Trevor came through .
“ Let’s postpone the divorce for a few days ? ” es

Celeste understood he meant they should wait until Martha’s condition stabilized before making further decisions .
She hesitated for a moment before replying , “ Okay . ” 2
“ Thank you . ”
This time , Celeste didn’t reply again .
Half an hour later , Jordyn arrived . ( 2 )
After her bath and getting into bed , Celeste pulled her into her arms , gently stroking her cheek , and said , “ Go to sleep . ”
This was actually the first time since she’d brought up the divorce that Celeste had taken the initiative to hold Jordyn like this . 1
Nestled in her mother’s arms , Jordyn felt much more at ease .
She’d been on the move all day with Trevor and was already exhausted . Before long , she fell asleep in Celeste’s
arms .
The next morning , Martha still hadn’t woken up .
After informing the housekeeper , Celeste and Betty brought Jordyn to the hospital to visit her again .
Trevor must have really been busy .
When they arrived a little after eight , he was already discussing business with Zeke , and several documents were spread out in front of him .
When he saw them arrive , the two paused their conversation . Trevor stood up and greeted them , “ You’re here . ”
Celeste gave a soft hum in response . Trevor then greeted Betty , “ Madam Klein . ” 1
She merely nodded coldly and went inside to check on Martha . 2
Celeste had a meeting later that morning , so after seeing Martha , she planned to head to the office .
But Jordyn clung to her and said , “ Mom , I want to stay with you . Can I go to work with you ? ” 9
