The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 665

In the Rodriguez family's eyes, Trevor was now first and foremost Jordyn's father.

And since he had previously helped Isabelle find a doctor to treat her illness, he was also considered a benefactor of the Rodriguez family.

Because of that, everyone treated him quite politely.

Still, with Trevor present, the atmosphere at the dining table was inevitably a little awkward.

During the meal, Celeste spoke very little. Jordyn, on the other hand, was in high spirits—Celeste had made many of her favorite dishes.

As for Trevor, although Celeste hadn't known in advance that he would be coming, she still observed basic courtesy and hastily made two dishes that he liked.

Trevor seemed to notice. After sitting down, he looked at Celeste and said, "Thank you."

Celeste replied calmly, "It's only right."

Seeing that Celeste didn't seem inclined to talk much with Trevor, Ivan stepped in and deliberately changed the topic.

Trevor followed along and began chatting with Ivan instead.

Not long after, while Trevor and Ivan were deep in conversation, Celeste's phone rang.

It was a call from Caleb.

Celeste paused. Before she could react, she noticed that Trevor had happened to glance over.

She didn't look at him. Holding her phone, she stood up and said to the others, "I'll take a call."

She walked a little farther away before answering. "Hello."

On the other end, Caleb's voice carried a smile. "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year," Celeste replied.

"Do you have time later? Want to go out for a walk?"

Celeste answered the call out of consideration for their past ties, but there was no way she could agree to his invitation. "I need to stay with my daughter, so I can't get away. Sorry."

It was an expected answer.

Caleb fell silent for a second, but didn't seem bothered. He smiled and said, "Alright, I understand."

Then he asked, "Have you eaten?"

"We're eating now."

"Okay, then I won't interrupt your meal. I'll contact you later."

"I see..."

"What about you?"

"I'm eating now."

"I see..."

From the fact that she had asked whether he'd eaten, Kieran could tell she was concerned about him. He was quite happy.

Now that he knew she was having a meal with her family, he didn't want to disturb her and said, "Then I won't interrupt your family time. Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year."

After hanging up, Celeste went back and sat down.

Jordyn said, "Mom, you're getting so many calls."

Celeste smiled, picked up a piece of meat for her, and didn't say anything.

Trevor watched quietly and also said nothing.

At that moment, however, his own phone rang as well.
