The Scent of 293

Chapter 293

Besides, they still had Trevor. 1

Given how much Trevor valued Wynn, if the two of them got married in the future, then the Locket and Shaw families would quickly rise to another level. By then, the Rodriguez family probably wouldn’t even have a place

near them.

Thinking of that, Ruby smirked and glanced disdainfully in Celeste’s direction before heading off with the others to help Calvin move into the boys‘ dorm.

After helping Jamie settle her luggage, Celeste left the school and returned to her own place.

She had only just walked in when there was a knock at the door–it was Tilda and Sylvia, the mother and daughter duo. They had just returned from their hometown and, upon seeing that Celeste was back, came over especially to drop off some local specialties.

Celeste accepted them and said, “Thank you.‘

“You’re welcome!” Sylvia replied sweetly.

Then she pulled a small ornament from her pocket. “I set this aside especially for Jordyn. Tomorrow, when school starts, I’ll bring it to give to her!”

Sylvia really liked Jordyn. Ever since New Year’s Day, when Jordyn had taken the initiative to call her, the two of them had gotten much closer. As she spoke, Sylvia happily shared with Celeste some things about the first day of school tomorrow.

Listening to her, Celeste couldn’t help but think of how Jordyn hadn’t called her at all lately. Tomorrow was the first day of the new term. Since Jordyn hadn’t called, it was clear she had no intention of asking her to take her to school.

Which made sense–Jordyn had no shortage of people who could take her.

It wouldn’t be surprising if it wasn’t just Trevor, but Wynn also going with him to drop Jordyn off.

Celeste smiled and chatted with Sylvia and Tilda a bit more before heading into the living room with the specialty goods they brought.

Since she still hadn’t finished hiring all the staff she needed, she continued with the recruitment of technical personnel when she returned to the office the next day.

During lunch, Tilda sent her several photos of Jordyn participating in school activities that day. One of the photos included both Wynn and Trevor in the frame.

So, Jordyn really hadn’t asked her to bring her to school just because Wynn would be there.

Celeste glanced at Trevor and Wynn in the photo, just about to exit when she realized the photo was suddenly gone. Tilda must have accidentally included that one and deleted it right away once she noticed.

Celeste hadn’t shared much about her marriage to Trevor with Tilda. After a divorce, it was common for the parent with custody to limit the other’s access to the child. Tilda assumed it was the same for her and Trevor- that Celeste rarely had the chance to see Jordyn, and that she must miss her daughter a lot. That’s why Tilda had deliberately sent over a few pictures of Jordyn at the event.

Explaining things to others could be such a hassle sometimes.

Knowing Tilda meant well, Celeste simply replied, “Thank you.”

Chapter 7d

*75 BORUS

On Wednesday, Celeste and Matthias were out handling some matters near Fleming Manor. After they finished, they had just gotten into the car when a vehicle pulled out from a side road nearby.

That road led only to Fleming Manor.

Celeste immediately recognized it as one of Trevor’s regular cars. She was about to look away when it pulled over to the side–and then Trevor and Wynn both stepped out of he car.

Celeste paused.

They had come from Fleming Manor.

So, Trevor had taken Wynn back to the manor to meet Martha?
