Jordyn ran over excitedly . “ Wow , so much delicious food ! And milkshakes too ! ”
“ Mm . ” Trevor said , “ I knew you were coming , so I had some things prepared . ”
As he spoke , his gaze landed on Celeste . Seeing that she ignored him , he shifted his focus to Hector and Jamie , nodding at them before standing up and saying , “ Sit . ”
Trevor carried an imposing presence ,
So , after greeting Martha , Jamie and Hector instinctively followed his words , sitting down with Jordyn and sharing the food that she and Trevor passed to them .
Once the children started eating , Trevor handed Celeste a serving . “ Try it ? ”
Noticing that Martha was watching , Celeste accepted it and said , “ Thank you . ”
She took a sip and realized it was strawberry – flavored – exactly to her taste .
Hearing that they were going skiing , Martha turned to Trevor and said , “ Trevor , you should go with Cel and the kids . ”
She continued , “ Skiing is a dangerous activity . It’ll be too much for Cel to watch over three children alone . Go help her . I have Peter and Samantha here , so you don’t need to stay with me all the time . ”
Celeste was about to speak , but before she could , Trevor said , “ Got it . ”
Jordyn was thrilled to hear that Trevor would be joining them .
After spending some more time in the hospital room , Celeste and the others prepared to leave .
Trevor gathered his documents before leaving with them .
They took two cars . Jordyn , Jamie , and Hector rode in Celeste’s car .
At the ski resort , Trevor helped Jordyn adjust her clothes and goggles when his phone rang . So , he stepped away to take the call and , after a brief exchange , said , “I’ll come by later . ”
Jordyn asked , “ Dad , who was that ? ”
Trevor didn’t answer her directly . Instead , he asked , “ Do you want to have lunch with Dad , or do you want to eat with Mom ? ”
Jordyn was taken aback . “ Huh ? Aren’t we all eating together ? ”
Trevor replied , “ No , Dad has something to take care of . ”
Celeste and the others overheard the conversation but didn’t comment .
Trevor patted Jordyn’s head and said , “ No rush . Ski first – you can decide later . ”
“ Okay ! ”
While the three children were chatting nearby , Celeste put on her goggles and looked at Trevor . “ The divorce still isn’t finalized ? ”
Trevor replied , “ Not yet . ”
He paused for a moment before saying , “ If you need money urgently , I can have someone transfer a portion to

That wasn’t what Celeste had been referring to . But before she could respond , Jordyn called out to her . “ Mom , come over here ! ”
Celeste let the topic drop and was about to walk over when her phone rang . It was a call from Ivan .
He said , “ Someone from Fleming Group just contacted me . They want to discuss a potential collaboration ! ”
Fleming Group was currently under Trevor’s control . With years of business experience , Ivan knew Trevor wouldn’t offer help for no reason .
He was calling Celeste to understand why Trevor was doing this and to rationally discuss whether there were any hidden traps in the deal – whether he should accept it or not
Celeste didn’t respond to him immediately .
After hanging up , she turned to look at Trevor .
