Jo, right? Haven't seen her in

when Jordyn hadn't come along, Celeste and Betty had said that Trevor was working abroad with the child. Now that the child was here, but her father... In all their years of marriage, Trevor had only accompanied her back once to pay respects at Lorenzo's grave. 5 That was a few years ago, when her relationship

the impending divorce, Celeste simply said, "He's busy with work." 2 Seeing how lightly Celeste spoke of Trevor, Eleanor didn't press further and quickly changed the subject. After a while of chatting, she seemed to recall something and whispered, "! heard that the Lockets and the Shaws moved to Baumond and have been doing very well. 5 "That granddaughter of the Locket family
