The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 551
Jordyn handed Celeste the gift Trevor had prepared for her—but just as Celeste reached out, Jordyn pulled it back and clung to her hand coquettishly. "Mom, look at my gift first!"
Celeste paused. "...Alright."
She opened the box as Jordyn watched eagerly.
Inside was a neatly framed oil painting. The person in the painting was her. In the lower right corner, a line of small words read: "To my Mom, happy birthday."
Celeste felt her heart jolt as if struck. Her hand froze midair, gripping the frame.
Jordyn shook her hand gently. "I painted it half a month ago! Do you like it, Mom?"
Snapping out of her reverie, Celeste looked at her daughter's hopeful face. Her emotions were a tangled mess, but she answered honestly, "I love it. You're getting really good at painting, sweetheart."
Hearing that, Jordyn's face lit up with pure joy. "If you like it, I'll paint another one for you next time!"
"...Okay."
Satisfied, Jordyn finally stuffed Trevor's gift into her hand. "Mom, I have to go to school now or I'll be late! I'll come again tonight to have dinner with you, okay?"
"...Alright."
At some point, Betty and the others had also come out. Jordyn waved at them cheerfully before hopping into the car and leaving.
Once she was gone, Celeste turned back silently.
The fact that Trevor sent a gift didn't mean he wasn't still going through with the divorce today—so no one in the Rodriguez family said a word.
Adeline broke the silence. "The pancakes are ready, Cel. Come have some first."
When he opened it, Betty, standing beside him, froze.
Hector blinked. "Is this... a red diamond?"
Adeline, who knew a thing or two about jewelry, came closer for a look—and her eyes widened.
It was a red diamond. A massive one—easily over a hundred carats. An extremely rare gemstone of that size... Its value was unimaginable.
Hector remembered hearing about how Celeste had once auctioned a diamond to pay for Isabelle's medical treatment.
He didn't know much about gems, but judging from his mother's and grandmother's reactions—and the way the stone glittered like fire in his palm—he could tell this wasn't just expensive.
Seeing his confusion, Adeline finally said, her voice low, "This red diamond... is even purer and rarer than the one Cel had before—almost twice as big. I think it's worth at least two billion."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Trevor, you're damned... I just wanted to say this for no reason....
Are we back to having rage baiting chapter?...
I don't want to raise my hopes regarding this lawsuit. I'm sure the bank (Trevor) will get them out of there....
Let's beat around the bush again...
Uhuh. And what, pray tell, is it that you know to be doing Trevor?...
Mr. Lincoln, you never raised your son. He is not a real man... When I see him, I just remember the line from the song that says "I guess no one ever told you how to be a real man."...
Did Trevor shut down the internet? If he does it, he's truly the biggest whore I've ever seen in my life... This guy raised my blood pressure throughout 800 chapters...
ok im done im not reading this trash anymore its repetitive celeste finally speaks and its less than 5 words.this isn't good at all and now we're getting the netizens pov but not hers. EVERYBODY HAS AN OPINION EXCEPT HER AND TREVOR...
I’m not liking where this is headed.. I’m getting the sense that the author is following the revenging husband storyline and Trevor did all this just to avenge his wife...
Isn't this a company that Celeste and Matthias work for? This will be a fatal blow to those scoundrels....
