The Scent of 237

    During lunch, Celeste bought movie tickets. After eating, they watched the movie and then went shopping for a


    while.


    While Jamie was trying on clothes and Hector was buying figurines, Celeste sald to Jordyn, “I’ll take you hometer.”


    “Home?” Sitting beside her, Jordyn said, “I don’t want to go home. I want to stay at Granny’s for another night, I’ll go back tomorrow evening.”


    Celeste took a sip of water and said, “<b>Jamie </b>and Hector have spent the whole day with you. Tomorrow, they need to focus on their homework. If you stay at Granny’s, you’ll distract them.”


    “I don’t need them to y with me. I can y on my tablet by myself.”


    Celeste didn’t say anything more, but she found a moment to send Trevor <b>a </b>message, asking him to have <b>someone </b>pick Jordyn upter.


    Trevor was probably busy, as he didn’t reply for a long time


    After Jamie finished shopping, they walked around a bit more before heading back to the Rodriguez residence.


    Betty and Ivan were genuinely happy to see Jordyn. They truly adored her.


    Jordyn was quite sweet and charming-


    After dinner, she even apanied Betty on a walk, making her extremely happy.


    However, <b>there </b>was no reply from Trevor.


    That night, Jordyn ended up staying over at the Rodriguez residence.


    The next day, Jamie and Hector stayed in their rooms to do their homework as nned. And true to her word, Jordyn kept herself entertained downstairs and quietly sat beside Celeste without causing any disturbance.


    At that moment, Trevor sent Celeste a message saying he would <b>send </b>someone to pick Jordyn up soon.


    Celeste didn’t reply.


    A few secondster, Jordyn’s phone rang. She looked at Celeste and <b>said</b>, “It’s Dad calling.”


    Celeste responded with a simple hum.


    Whatever Trevor said on the other end, it made Jordyn put down her phone and tell Celeste, “Mom, Dad says he’s taking me out to y…”


    “Mm, your dad told me. If you want to go, then go.”


    “Okay!”


    Half an hourter, the car Trevor sent arrived.


    Betty was reluctant to see Jordyn leave, as always. She prepared a bunch of food <b>and </b>snacks for her to take home.


    Watching the car drive away, Betty grumbled, “I used to think he was quite generous, but now… It’s only been two days, and he’s already in a hurry to take her back.”


    After saying that, she didn’t wait for Celeste’s response. Feeling reluctant and mncholic, she went back inside.


    Just then, Celeste’s phone rang. It was Jason calling.


    He said, “I just met with Trevor’swyer. I’ve received the new divorce agreement. The three additional properties are worth about one billion in total–there are no issues.<b>” </b>


    Celeste replied, “Got it.”


    Jason continued, “Trevor’swyer also mentioned that if you need money urgently, he can pay a portion of the assets into your ount in advance. What do you think?”


    Yesterday, Trevor had misunderstood her intentions.


    The two birthday gifts he gave Betty had already been auctioned off, and the money had already been credited.


    <b>Ivan </b>was not short on funds anymore.


    However, Celeste said, “Go ahead with the advance.”


    Their divorce wasn’t finalized yet–anything could still change. Since he was willing to give it to her, <b>why </b>shouldn’t she take it?


    <b>After </b>all, if she didn’t take it now, there was no guarantee it would still be thereter.


    Jason responded, “Alright, I’ll take care of it.”
