# Chapter 170: The Distance Between Mothers and Daughters
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 170 of "The Breaking Point of Love" — a chapter that reveals the growing chasm between a mother who chooses self-preservation and a daughter who only wants her attention.
Beck knew exactly where the bakery was. But after Celeste left, he didn't go there. Instead, he got into his car, hesitated briefly, and made a different choice. He dialed a number. "Miles, I'm back. I have another flight later, but I want to see Wynn at the hospital before I leave. See if Trevor is free. If not, come with me."
Miles was stunned. "You're back? When did you get back?"
Beck ignored the question. "Call Wynn. Check if she's available."
Miles almost asked why Beck wasn't calling Trevor or Wynn himself, but then thought Beck must be busy and in a rush. Since he hadn't visited Wynn yet either, he didn't question it further and agreed.
Trevor wasn't available. So Beck bought a bouquet and a basket of fruit, then headed to the hospital to meet Miles.
Inside the hospital room, Wynn smiled at the sight of him. "Why did you suddenly come back?"
Beck replied coolly, "Had to take care of something."
Wynn looked down, gently stroking the flowers he had just given her. "I see..."
Did he really come back for business? Or did he make a special trip just to see her? She knew he hadn't rushed back immediately after her injury, but the fact that he came as soon as he found time still meant a lot to her.
That night, Celeste stayed at the Rodriguez residence. The next morning, she woke up early. Looking at the healthy succulents on the windowsill, she stretched lazily, feeling genuinely good.
When she went downstairs, Adeline was already busy preparing breakfast for her, Jamie, and Hector. Seeing her, Adeline smiled. "Cel, you're in a good mood today?"
Celeste went over to help knead the dough and smiled. "Yeah, pretty good."
A steaming batch of buns was soon ready. Just as she sat down to eat, her phone rang. It was Jordyn again. She didn't pick up. But Jordyn called again. So Celeste turned off her phone entirely and focused on her meal.
Jordyn pouted when her calls stopped going through. She ran to the master bedroom to find Trevor. He had just finished his morning run and was about to shower when he saw her sulking. "What's wrong?"
"I called Mom yesterday and wanted her to come home and cook for me, but she didn't answer. I just tried twice again, and she still didn't pick up. When I was about to call a third time, it said the number was unavailable."
Trevor said, "She probably turned off her phone."
"Huh?" Jordyn frowned. "Did her battery die?"
Trevor neither confirmed nor denied it. "Maybe."
"What do I do then? I wanted to go skiing today. Mom said before that if she had time, she'd take me." Originally, she hadn't been in the mood to play because Wynn was injured, and she wanted to stay with her at the hospital. But hospitals had too many germs, and everyone kept her from going too often. Now that Wynn was getting better, she wasn't as worried. Since she had free time and no one to go with, she naturally wanted to find her mom. But when she called, her mom wouldn't answer.
"Try again later. She'll probably turn her phone back on."
Jordyn pouted. "Okay..."
Celeste didn't plan to keep her phone off all day. She still had things to discuss with Matthias, and Jason might contact her later as well. About half an hour later, she powered her phone back on. Not long after, Jordyn called again.
Celeste opened her laptop, ignored the call, and continued working on her research paper.
Seeing that her mother still wasn't answering and that Trevor was about to leave, Jordyn said, "Dad, Mom still isn't picking up. Can you call her for me?"

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
This chapter is deeply emotional and layered with quiet tension. The parallel scenes are striking: Beck making time for Wynn, while Celeste deliberately avoids her own daughter's calls. The pain is subtle but real — Jordyn just wants her mother's attention, and Celeste, for her own reasons, chooses distance. It breaks my heart to see both sides. The chapter masterfully shows how love can become tangled with self-protection and neglect.
⭐ Rating: 4.5 / 5 Stars
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
I believe next chapter will force Celeste to finally respond to Jordyn's calls — or maybe Trevor will call her instead, creating an awkward conversation. Alternatively, Beck's visit to Wynn might have consequences that ripple back to Celeste. Something is brewing beneath the surface.
