The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 742

Celeste and Matthias had run into Quentin several times over the past two days.

But whenever they did, Quentin either ignored them as if they were complete strangers or looked at Celeste with eyes filled with disdain and ridicule.

Since that was his attitude, Celeste and Matthias naturally had no intention of forcing themselves to be friendly with him.

As a result, they hadn't exchanged a single word despite crossing paths multiple times.

This time was no different.

Celeste and Matthias acted as though they didn't know Quentin either and simply walked past him and his group.

By the time Celeste got home, it was already past midnight.

After washing up and getting some sleep, she woke up and returned to YodaVision as usual to deal with work.

She hadn't seen Jordyn for several days, but Jordyn knew she had been away on a business trip and that she would return that day.

So, at noon, Celeste received a call from her daughter.

Jordyn told her that after school, she would be going to the Rodriguez residence. Then, she asked Celeste, "Mom, you've been busy for so many days. Can you come and pick me up from school today?"

Celeste knew that it had indeed been quite some time since she had personally driven Jordyn to and from school. And whenever she got busy, she rarely contacted her daughter.

"Okay, I'll pick you up later."

She hung up after chatting with Jordyn for a few more minutes.

Keeping her promise in mind, Celeste grabbed her car keys and left work early that afternoon to pick Jordyn up from school.

Jordyn was delighted. She immediately began pestering Celeste to cook something delicious for her.

Celeste agreed. So, not long after returning to the Rodriguez residence, she went straight into the kitchen and got busy.

…

Meanwhile, Miles had arranged for a dinner gathering with Trevor, Beck, and Wynn the day before.

Beck and Miles arrived at roughly the same time, but Trevor and Wynn arrived a little late.

"I'd like to sit here. Would it be convenient for you to switch seats with me, Mr. Quinton?"

Although she directed the question at Miles, her gaze remained fixed on Beck.

Miles finally understood this time that Narcissa had come specifically for Beck.

He coughed slightly as a teasing grin appeared on his face. "Sure. Let me make way for you."

Beck said nothing. His expression remained unchanged as well.

Miles immediately moved to the seat beside Trevor.

Raising his eyebrows at Trevor, he was silently conveying that this was the first time he had ever seen someone they knew pursue Beck so openly, and it was surprisingly entertaining to watch.

Trevor apparently felt the same way, as a faint smile appeared on his face.

He watched with obvious interest as Narcissa took her seat and began to deliberately talk to Beck even though they didn't have a common topic.
