The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 503

Celeste stopped in her tracks, gave a soft hum, and asked from where she stood, "Where are Jo and the others?"

Trevor replied, "The rain's been too heavy today. A lot of places outside are flooded. Even though the drainage system here has always been good, if this keeps up, it won't hold. Peter has already sent people to deal with it.

"Jo's never seen people stacking sandbags, or rain this heavy, so she ran out to join the excitement."

Hearing that, Celeste glanced out the window and finally realized that the outside had turned into a vast stretch of water.

Truth be told, it was also her first time seeing Baumond hit by such a severe flood.

Her brows knitted with worry, and she couldn't help saying, "Where is Jo now? The rain's pouring, yet you just let her stay out—"

Before she could finish, Jordyn burst in, drenched head to toe in a little raincoat. "Mom, you're awake!"

Seeing she was safe, Celeste let out a breath of relief.

But when she noticed that, despite the raincoat, her daughter's hair and clothes were nearly soaked through, the worry came right back.

Jordyn was clearly thrilled, though. She wanted to fling herself into Celeste's arms, but just before she reached her, she remembered how wet she was and skidded to a stop.

Celeste couldn't bring herself to scold Jordyn when she saw her daughter's happiness. She was just about to tell her to go upstairs and change when Trevor set down his book, stood, and scooped Jordyn up.

"Let's get you changed first."

"Okay." Jordyn nodded, then suddenly wriggled, wanting to get down. "I want Mom to help me change."

Trevor raised a brow, glanced at Celeste, and asked, "Are you sure? Didn't you see that Mom's angry right now?"

Jordyn blinked. She really hadn't noticed.

Sneaking a look at Celeste, she didn't actually feel like her mother was angry, so she asked, "Mom, are you really mad?"
