Chapter 154

Trevor didn’t look at Celeste. He gently rubbed Jordyn’s nose. “I’m busy, Jo. Be a good girl and listen to Mom, okay?”

“Okay,” Jordyn replied nonchalantly. She cast Celeste a look and walked to her. Then, she extended her hand, signaling Celeste to grasp it.

This was basically her initiating the reconciliation.

Celeste took her hand, exchanged a quick greeting with Peter, and left.

“Yeah,” Celeste replied.

Hence, Betty stopped Martha. “He’s tied up with work, I get it. You don’t need to force him to come.”

Jordyn and Hector went upstairs to play games.
