The car slowly drove away from the base.
They chatted along the way. When the car entered the city, Caleb asked, "Do you want to grab a meal together?"
"I can't. I want to go home and have dinner with my family," Celeste refused as firmly as ever.
It was an answer he had expected. Caleb understood where to draw the line and didn't insist.
He got out of the car first. Only then did Celeste take her phone out of her bag and switch it on.
There were quite a lot of missed calls, but most of them were from Jordyn.
She had been in such a rush to the base while handling the tasks Zachary assigned to her that she didn't tell Jordyn she was going on a "business trip".
However, Jordyn would definitely contact the Rodriguez family to ask about her if she couldn't reach her. So, Celeste wasn't worried about that.
However, seeing all the missed calls, she sent Jordyn a message to let her know she was done with work.
The message had just been sent, and when Celeste was about to put her phone down, Jordyn immediately called back.
"Mom, you're finally back!"
Celeste hummed a response.
"Mom, I missed you so much! Have you eaten? Can we go out for dinner?"
But Celeste refused. "I just got back. I want to go home and have dinner with Granny and the family. We'll go out another time."
Jordyn replied, "Then I'll go over to Granny's for dinner too!"
Celeste said, "Alright. Come over then."
When the Rodriguez family heard that she was back, they prepared a few extra dishes. However, upon hearing that Jordyn would also be joining them for dinner, Betty and Adeline paused for a moment.
Jordyn was still a child. They didn't really blame her for being close to Wynn. Instead, they felt the responsibility lay with Trevor.
After all, Jordyn's fondness for Wynn had been influenced by him.
