Trevor’s words were definitely <b>not </b>meant for Celeste.


    For all these years they were <b>married</b><b>, </b>Trevor had never once lugged her in his sleep, let alone given her a morning kiss.


    Thus, Celeste was certain <b>that </b>Trevor had mistaken her for Wynn.


    She pursed her lips, and her eyes gradually filled with tears.


    Trevor was still asleep.


    Staring at Trevor, Celeste swallowed the bitterness welling up inside her. She took a deep breath and slowly pulled away from Trevor. She was trying to escape his embrace.


    With how tightly they were pressed together, her slightest movement was bound to disrupt his sleep.


    eyes.


    Then, it was just as expected as she removed Trevor’s hand from her waist and sat up, Trevor opened his ey She was about to pull her legs back.


    Their eyes met at that e


    exact moment.


    Trevor woke uppletely. Once he grasped the circumstances and realized he had hugged the wrong person, he paused for a brief moment and shifted so his legs were not entwined with hers anymore.


    Celeste retracted her legs as well. She turned her back to him, moved to the side of the bed, and slipped into her slippers before heading for the bathroom.


    After she had washed up, she came out of the bathroom, only to see no one in the room.


    Celeste walked out of the <b>room </b>and saw Trevor at the end of the corridor. He was talking to someone over the phone in his pajamas.


    She nced at him briefly and looked away, then went downstairs.


    Martha was already <b>awake</b>.


    Momentster, Jordyn came downstairs as well.


    Grinning, Martha said, “Let’s have our breakfast now that everyone’s awake.”


    “Okay!” responded Jordyn.


    <b>Just </b>then, Trevor came and settled down next to Celeste.


    Celeste thought of what had happened earlier. She moved to the side, pulling away just a little to increase the gap


    between them.


    Jordyn looked at Trevor as she munched on her breakfast. As if she had suddenly thought of something, she asked<b>, </b>“Dad, do you like hugging Mom in your sleep too?” Her pretty eyes were filled with doubt.


    Celeste was drinking a cup of tea. Upon hearing what <b>Jordyn </b><b>had </b>said, she choked on her tea.


    Trevor remained silent.


    Celeste’s face flushed red from the coughing, and she felt even more ufortable. Her expression went stiff. However, Martha was very delighted. “Oh? Why would you say so, Jo?”


    “I went to look for Mom when I woke up just now, and I saw Dad hugging Mom…”


    Martha put on a bigger grin. She had an epiphany, letting out a drawn–out “oh” as she eyed Celeste and Trevor teasingly.


    Trevor remained silent still.


    Celeste became more awkward for she knew the person Treyor wanted to hug wasn’t her at all.


    Just then<b>, </b>her phone rang.


    It was a call from Betty.


    Celeste answered the <b>call</b>. “Hello, Granny.”


    Betty told Celeste that Adeline had just <be </b>back and brought her souvenirs. She also asked if she could join them for a meal.


    Celeste looked at Martha as she spoke, “I’m with Jo at the Fleming, Manor now.”


    Initially, Martha hoped they would join her at the estate to pick some fruits.


    Martha and Betty were good friends. When Martha learned the reason behind Betty’s call, she remarked, “You can take jo back with you.”


    Then, she turned to Trevor. “It’s been a while since you visited Betty as well, Trevor. Since you have some free time now, apany Cel back for a visit.”


    Trevor took a bite of his breakfast and uttered, “There’s something I have to take care ofter.”


    Celeste <b>wasn’t </b>surprised at all when he said that.


    She had guessed it already,


    Trevor would never have the time to apany her.


    But when it came to Wynn, he’d make time for her no matter how busy he was,


    This was the difference between Celeste and Wynn.


    Martha frowned. “What’s so urgent? You haven’t gone back with Cel for ages!”
