Chapter 84
Celeste wasn’t surprised to hear Wynn answer the call . After all , Trevor and Wynn were already so close- practically inseparable .
So what if she answered his phone ?
Celeste remained calm . “ I need to speak to Trevor . ”
Wynn , already knowing it was Celeste on the other end , replied coldly , “ He’s in the shower . If you have something to say , you can tell me . ”
Tell her ? Well , this matter did concern Wynn .
Ivan saw Wynn’s maternal uncle and Oliver Shaw’s wife , Ruby , in the neighborhood today . However , Harvey had likely purchased the villa across from them .
If Harvey had bought that house , it was probably meant as a gift to Wynn’s grandmother and his current mother- in – law , Dorothy Adams .
So , if Celeste told Wynn about this , would she stop Dorothy and the others from moving in ?
No , she wouldn’t .
Besides , Celeste didn’t believe that Wynn had no idea Oliver’s family was planning to move into the house right across from the Rodriguez residence . Which meant telling her would not only be pointless but could also backfire . Celeste said nothing and directly hung up .
More than an hour passed , yet Trevor never called back .
She didn’t know if it was because Wynn hadn’t told him about her call , or if he simply had no intention of calling
her back
Either way , it made no difference to her .
Remaining composed , she dialed Trevor’s number again . But this time , his phone was turned off .
Celeste’s grip on her phone tightened slightly . After a brief pause to collect herself , she called Peter , Trevor’s butler .
“ Are they home right now ?
Peter replied , “ No , they’re not . Why ? ”
“ Nothing , ” Celeste said before ending the call ,
That night , she didn’t sleep well .
After nine o’clock the next morning , Celeste tried calling Trevor again .
This time , the call went through , only to be immediately hung up .
She didn’t know whether it was Wynn or Trevor himself who had ended the call . But she also didn’t care to find
Grabbing her phone and bag , she left the house .
Before long , she arrived at Trevor’s villa

Peter greeted her warmly , “ Mrs. Fleming , you’re back ? ”
Celeste nodded . “ Yes , ”
“ Will you be having lunch at home ? I’ll have someone prepare it for you . ”
“ Yes , thank you . ”
She went upstairs , but as she reached the second floor , she paused briefly before entering the master bedroom . Placing her bag down , she sat by the bed .
The room remained unchanged . Everything was as it had been before she left .
The skincare products she had used when staying over to care for Jordyn had been returned to their place .
Even the clothes she had previously taken away had been placed back in the walk – in closet – hanging neatly beside Trevor’s ..
It was as if she had never left .
Shed
She didn’t call Trevor again . And he never returned her calls either .
She ate dinner alone .
She had considered asking Martha for help , but doing so would only complicate things further .
Besides , even though Trevor respected Martha , whether he listened to her was entirely up to him .
After dinner , Celeste opened her laptop and immersed herself in work .
The night approached .
Just as she thought Trevor and Jordyn wouldn’t be coming home that night , the sound of a car engine finally echoed outside .
Jordyn was the first to notice . Upon seeing Celeste’s car parked outside , she turned to Trevor and said excitedly , Oh ! That’s Mom’s car ! Dad , Mom’s home ! ”
“ Okay . ”
Trevor glanced at Celeste’s car before stepping inside with Jordyn
Jordyn immediately turned to Peter , who had come to welcome them .
“ Where’s Mom ? ”
“ Mrs. Fleming is upstairs . ”
