Celeste knew that he didn’t allow her near his study, so she stayed in the bedroom, reading while waiting for him..
It wasn’t until nearly 1:00 am that Trevor finally returned to the room.
Seeing him come back, Celeste put down her book and looked at him. Trevor noticed and asked indifferently, ” Something wrong?”
Celeste didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, “I heard there’s a charity auction at Hearthside in two days-
Trevor elegantly removed his tie. Hearing this, he glanced at her and said, “You want an invitation?”
Celeste was slightly surprised. “Yes.”
“Got it.” With that, he turned and walked into the walk–in closet.
A moment later, he entered the bathroom to take a shower.
He agreed so readily that Celeste was a little surprised. But since he said yes, she felt relieved.
It was late. So, she set her book aside and laid down on the bed. Before Trevor finished showering, she had already fallen asleep.
Since the auction was the day after tomorrow, Celeste returned to the villa after leaving YodaVision the next day. However, Trevor wasn’t home when she arrived.
Jordyn was, though. Seeing her return, Jordyn clung to her, begging her to make something delicious.
Celeste agreed.
After dinner, Peter suddenly approached her and said, “Mrs. Fleming, someone just delivered this for you.” Celeste opened it and took a look. It was an invitation to the Hearthside Charity Auction for tomorrow.
Trevor had actually gotten it for her. And not just one, but two.
But since he had someone send it over instead of giving it to her himself, did that mean he wouldn’t be coming home tonight?
Just as she was about to take a shower, her phone suddenly chimed twice.
It was text messages from Lottie.
Celeste opened them and froze for a moment. It was a screenshot from an Instagram post.
In the screenshot was a photo–beneath a sky full of fireworks, Wynn’s face was turned slightly to the side, with a sweet, radiant smile, while Trevor’s back was facing the camera.
The caption read, “Tonight’s fireworks festival is beautiful.
In the background, there were faint outlines of other couples enjoying the scene. Clearly, the so–called fireworks festival was a popular date spot.
Wynn’s caption said the festival was beautiful, but from her blissful expression, it was obvious–more than the fireworks, what truly made the night beautiful was her mood.

Because Trevor was there with her.
So, that’s why he hadn’t come home–he had been out on a date with Wynn. And he hadn’t even brought Jordyn along.
Celeste stared at the screenshot, feeling nothing in particular. She was only a little curious, so she sent a message back to Lottie.
“You added Wynn as a friend?”
Otherwise, how did she get this screenshot?
“A friend of mine knows her. When she mentioned it, I asked her to send me a screenshot.” What Lottie didn’t say was that her friend was utterly envious of Wynn.
Because almost everyone in their circle now knew that Wynn had managed to latch onto Trevor. And not just that -he seemed to truly love her, treating her like a precious treasure.
Thinking of the extra invitation, Celeste sent another message to Lottie, asking if she wanted to go to the auction with her tomorrow.
Lottie immediately replied, “Of course! I wouldn’t miss it for the world!”
That night, Trevor didn’t come home. Celeste had already expected that.

After all, he was out on a date with Wynn. Most likely, after the fireworks festival, they would go on to have an even sweeter and more intimate night together.
With him not coming back, she actually found it quite nice to have the bedroom all to herself.
