Chapter 231
Celeste remained calm.
As she had thought before-with Trevor's memory, remembering these details wasn't surprising. The fact that he
prepared these dishes was likely just his way of thanking them for visiting Martha.
It didn’t mean anything else.
After finishing their meal, Celeste and Betty sat for another hour before getting ready to leave.
Seeing that it was getting late, Martha didn’t insist on keeping them and instead said to Trevor, “You and Jo
should head hearly too.”
“Alright,” Trevor replied. “I'll csee you tomorrow morning.
The four of them left the hospital room together.
Once they entered the elevator, Trevor asked, “Did you drive here yourself?”

Celeste replied with a hum.
Trevor didn’t say anything more, but Jordyn suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, “Mom, are your
not coming htonight too?”
“No,” Celeste replied. “I'm taking your Granny hand staying over at her place for the night.”
“Then | want to stay at Granny's house too!”
Although Jordyn was now closer to Trevor, in Betty's heart, she would always be Celeste’s daughter.
Hearing Jordyn say she wanted to go to the Rodriguez residence, Betty, with a warm smile, said, “Alright,
alright,”
Since Betty had already agreed, Celeste kept quiet.
However, she reminded Jordyn, “You don’t have any spare dothes at Granny's house.”
Before Jordyn started living with Trevor more often, Celeste used to take her to the Rodriguez residence
frequently. Back then, she and Adeline, had filled half a wardrobe with clothes for her.
But in the past
years, Jordyn’s visits had significantly decreased, and since children grow fast, neither she nor
Adeline had continued replenishing her wardrobe like before.
So now, there were no clothes at the Rodriguez residence that would fit her.
“Huh?” Jordyn was disappointed. “Then-"
At that moment, Trevor spoke, “I'll ask someone to send over sclothes”
Celeste hesitated briefly but didn’t say anything.
Jordyn, on the other hand, was thrilled. “Yay! | get to sleep with Mom tonight!”
Qutside the hospital, Jordyn happily followed Celeste to her car, while Trevor walked over to his own car and
retrieved Jordyn’s backpack before handing it to her.
Jordyn eagerly took it. “Thank you, Dad!”
Trevor ruffled her hair and glanced at Celeste, who was seated in the driver's seat. She didn’t look back but
instead. said to Jordyn, “Jo, say goodbye to Dad”

“Goodbye, Dad.”
“Goodbye.” As soon as Trevor finished speaking, Celeste rolled up the winded the steering wheel, and
drove away.
By the tthey arrived at the Rodriguez residence, Jordyn’s clothes had already been delivered.
As Jordyn ran upstairs, Betty said to Celeste, “At least he’s not stopping you from being close to Jo. That's
something.”
She had been worried that since custody was with Trevor, he might not let Celeste see her daughter. If that had
happened over time, their mother-daughter bond would have inevitably grown distant.
For a mother, that would be far too cruel.
Celeste didn’t explain anything to Betty. She simply responded with a quiet hum, reminded her to rest early, and
then went upstairs.
The next morning, the Rodriguez family had breakfast downstairs with Jordyn.
Just then, a message cfrom the security booth outside they had a visitor.
Celeste glanced at the screen and saw that it was Trevor's car.
