Chapter 859
Since it was the Harvest Moon Festival, the Rodriguez family had arranged to visit Isabelle at the hospital that afternoon.
After finishing a few phone calls, Celeste set off for the hospital with her family.
Isabelle’s condition was much the same as before. The Rodriguez family could still only stand outside the room and look at her from a distance.
After visiting Isabelle and handing over the gifts they had brought for her to the hospital staff, they returned home.
They had just arrived when the housekeeper, Melanie Perez, informed Celeste that someone had delivered more Harvest Moon Festival gifts.
Celeste looked at the several gift boxes arranged on the table. Judging by the packaging alone, it was obvious that these weren’t ordinary gifts.
“Who sent them?” she asked.
“I heard they were sent by Jo’s father,” Melanie replied.
Celeste was stunned.
Betty and the rest of the family were also taken aback. Then their brows furrowed.
Celeste said nothing. She walked straight over and opened the boxes to take a look. Among the gifts Trevor had sent were boxes of pies, as well as valuable antiques, paintings, and premium nutrition products.
There was also a card inside one of the boxes. “Happy Harvest Moon Festival.”
Celeste casually set the card aside, picked up her phone, and sent Trevor a message. “I’ve received the gifts. Are they a token of thanks?”
She was referring to the fact that, when the scandal surrounding him and Wynn had been raging, she hadn’t immediately approached him to discuss their divorce.
A short while after she sent the message, Trevor replied. “Yes.”
Seeing his response, Celeste immediately sent another message. “Since they’re a token of thanks, I’ll accept them.”
After all, the only reason she hadn’t brought up the divorce again during this period was out of consideration for the longstanding friendship between their families.
She then sent him another message. “We’ll go to the courthouse and complete the divorce formalities in a month.”
This time, Trevor replied just as quickly. “Alright.”
Celeste read his message and put her phone down.
Trevor didn’t send anything else.
Betty asked, “What did he say? He suddenly sent over so many things. Did something happen?”
“Nothing happened. We’ve cleared everything up.”
Hearing that, Betty finally felt relieved. “That’s good.”
…
Meanwhile, the Lockets and Shaws were having an exceptionally bleak Harvest Moon Festival.

On this day the previous year, due to Wynn’s relationship with Trevor, countless people had come to their house bearing gifts. But this year, not a single person showed up. NovelPeak.org
Although it was the Harvest Moon Festival, neither family was in the mood to celebrate. Even with both families gathered together, the Locket family’s living room remained cold and lifeless. There was none of the festive warmth that should have accompanied a holiday meant for family reunions. NovelPeak.org
Wynn had called and messaged Trevor that day as well, but, just as before, he hadn’t responded at all.
When the Lockets and Shaws saw that she had stayed home all day without going out, they understood that there was still no news from Trevor.
Meanwhile, the trial involving Velotra and Locket Tech was drawing closer by the day.
Calvin had also returned home for the holiday.
He now knew at least some of what was happening to his family and their businesses. Naturally, he understood that Trevor’s support
was cruciali on recor
Locket Tech were to recover from their current predicament. NovelPeak.org
He also knew that Trevor seemed to be under pressure and was therefore unable to
step forward and help them.
