The next morning, after waking up and having breakfast, Celeste headed out for work as usual.

At noon, while she was having lunch, Jordyn’s call came through. This was the first time Jordyn had called her since secretly sneaking away from the hot spring retreat.

Celeste answered.

“Mom…”

“Mm.” Celeste responded and asked, “Have you eaten?”

“Just finished!”

That morning at the hot spring retreat, she had received a call from Wynn, who told her that Trevor was taking her out for fun and asked if she wanted to join them.

She immediately agreed and sneaked away while Celeste wasn’t paying attention.

They had a great time and only returned to the city yesterday afternoon. However, they didn’t go home last night.

This morning, after returning to school, Jordyn thought of Celeste and felt a little guilty. She was worried that she might be angry. That’s why she decided to call.

But when she heard her mom ask if she had eaten, she felt that she wasn’t mad about her sneaking off that day. She was relieved.

She knew it. Her mom wouldn’t be mad at her!

However, she also noticed that her mom no longer called her every day or constantly asked about her whereabouts like before.

She actually liked this change in her mom!

Now, she had much more freedom to do what she wanted!

Celeste indeed didn’t ask about where they had been for the past two days–because she simply didn’t care.

After chatting with Jordyn about her studies for a while, Celeste hung up the phone.

Back at the office, Matthias came over and asked, “Tomorrow is the tech expo. Are we meeting at the company and heading there together?”

“Sounds good.”
