---
The morning had taken on a gentle rhythm at the Sinclair estate. Celeste, still recovering from her illness, found a small distraction in Tucker's homework. The boy was bright — his academic record spoke for itself — and when Celeste glanced over his test papers, she saw a solid foundation. With just a few words of guidance, everything clicked for him.
"Whoa, you're amazing! Thanks, Celeste!" Tucker beamed, his youthful energy infectious.
He crouched at the coffee table, scribbling answers with renewed confidence. The moment he finished, he packed away his papers and pens with a satisfied grin. "Okay, I can get back to my phone now!"
Celeste smiled softly, setting aside the newspaper she'd nearly finished. Feeling a bit more refreshed, she decided to head upstairs to find a book to pass the time.
But then Tucker leaned in, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "My dream girl was in another car race recently, Celeste. She was even cooler this time. I got a video. Wanna watch?"
The smile on Celeste's face faded just a little. "I'll pass. I'm not really into car racing."
"Oh?" Tucker's brows shot up in surprise. He had been so sure she'd be interested. "You were watching the race through the binoculars for so long that day. I really thought you were into it too."
Celeste's reply came measured, careful. "I wasn't watching the race. I just saw a few people I know."
Tucker shrugged, dropping the subject. He turned back to replaying Wynn's race highlights, muttering to himself, "I heard she's not participating in the next race. I missed seeing her race, though. When will I get to see her again if she's not racing this time?" A sigh escaped his lips.
"I'm heading upstairs to get a book," Celeste interrupted.
"Okay!" His voice brimmed with his usual liveliness. "Glad you're doing better, Celeste, but you should still take it easy!"
"Thank you, I will."
She stood and made her way upstairs, leaving Tucker to his admiration of Wynn.
When she entered the bedroom, Trevor wasn't there. She noticed the book he had taken earlier — it lay on the table. She picked it up to return it to her bag. She usually brought one or two books over when she stayed the night. But she couldn't find the others in the room. They might be in Jordyn's room, she thought, and turned to walk there.
Jordyn's door was ajar.
Just as Celeste approached, Jordyn's voice drifted out, light and playful. "I'm so bored, Wynn! Stay and chat with me for a bit."
Celeste froze. She leaned against the wall, her heart beginning to pound.
Seconds later, Jordyn chuckled. "Don't worry, Wynn. I'll make sure to have the soup later! Okay, goodbye, Wynn!" She even blew kisses into the phone.
Jordyn didn't leave her room right away after hanging up. The call had left her in high spirits, her legs swinging as she sprawled on the bed in delight.
Celeste's throat was still uncomfortable from her cold. A few coughs escaped her before she stepped into Jordyn's room. That was when Jordyn finally looked up.
"Oh, why are you here, Mom?" Jordyn hopped out of bed, her mood still buoyant.
"I'm looking for a book," Celeste replied, her tone flat.
Jordyn walked over and grabbed her hand. "Nana said the soup is ready. Do you want to head downstairs together, Mom?"
Celeste withdrew her hand gently but firmly. "I've had the soup already. If you haven't yet, go get yours downstairs."
Jordyn, still floating on the good cheer from her call with Wynn, didn't notice anything off about her mother. "I'll head downstairs now then!" she chirped.
Celeste only murmured a soft reply.
But in the quiet of that room, the air felt heavier than before. The name Wynn lingered in Celeste's mind like a shadow she couldn't shake.

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
This chapter is a masterclass in subtle tension. On the surface, nothing explosive happens — just a tutoring session, a missed video, a overheard phone call. Yet every word is loaded. Tucker's innocent mention of the race, Celeste's cold withdrawal of her hand from Jordyn, the contrast between Jordyn's bubbly ease and Celeste's quiet restraint — it all builds a sense of impending revelation. The chapter's power lies in what is *not* said. The silence between mother and daughter is deafening. A beautifully crafted, emotionally charged piece.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rating: 4.7 / 5 Stars
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
Now that Celeste has witnessed Jordyn's carefree intimacy with Wynn, her suspicion will likely deepen. In the next chapter, we may see Celeste quietly investigating the connection between her daughter and the mysterious racer. Will she confront Jordyn directly, or will she seek answers in a more secretive way? And where is Trevor in all this? The calm before the storm is almost over — a confrontation is brewing.
