# Chapter 447: Postponed Promises and Unspoken Words
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 447 of "The Breaking Point of Love" – a chapter filled with quiet tension, unspoken understandings, and the slow, painful dance between two hearts that are still tethered by obligation, not love.
After walking a fair distance in silence, Celeste finally broke the stillness. She didn't look at Trevor, her voice calm and collected, "You can say what you want now."
Trevor turned his head to study her profile, his expression unreadable. "Grandma's condition hasn't stabilized yet. I'd like to postpone the divorce for a few more days."
Celeste's face betrayed no surprise. She had already expected this. After a moment of quiet reflection, she simply replied, "Got it."
"Thank you," Trevor said, and as she began to walk away, he added, "Is there anything you want? As a token of gratitude, I can help you with anything – or grant you a wish."
Celeste paused, her steps faltering for just a heartbeat. But she did not turn around. Her voice came back steady and distant, "It's fine. You can't give me what I want."
No sooner had the words left her lips than she felt a twinge of self-consciousness, worried he might misinterpret her meaning – that she was hinting at wanting his love. So she quickly added, "I don't mean what you think."
Trevor let out a low chuckle, standing just two steps behind her, his eyes fixed on the graceful curve of her profile. "How do you know what I think?"
Celeste had no answer. She didn't know what he had imagined, but his tone carried no anger. Whatever interpretation he had formed, she had no intention of explaining further. So she simply walked away, her silence speaking volumes.
As her figure receded, Trevor called after her, "Then let's just say I owe you a favor?"
Celeste didn't stop walking. "Suit yourself."
That night, news spread like wildfire through both the Lockets and the Shaws: Martha had woken up, and the divorce between Celeste and Trevor was once again delayed. Patricia expressed quiet optimism, noting that it was better for Mrs. Fleming Senior to recover than to remain in a coma. Now that she was awake, the divorce would draw nearer. No matter how you looked at it, it was a good thing.
Linda and Ruby silently agreed, though Linda remained unusually withdrawn after Beck had publicly rejected her in front of Celeste days earlier. Wynn, on the other hand, felt the same eagerness as everyone else – but for different reasons. She was, in fact, the most desperate to see Celeste and Trevor officially separate. Yet even in her impatience, she could only grit her teeth and accept Trevor's decision to delay for his grandmother's sake.
Martha waking up should have been a cause for celebration. At least, from any logical perspective, it was. But then Wynn heard another piece of news: Celeste would be going to Fleming Group tomorrow.
Last time, Celeste had only briefly showcased her skills at Fleming Group, and she had already won the recognition of the R&D department's core team – including Trevor himself. If she showed up again and demonstrated her professional abilities once more, and if Trevor witnessed it... That thought made Wynn lose her appetite. She clenched her spoon as her mood plummeted.
The next day, after visiting Martha at the hospital with Betty, Celeste prepared to head to Fleming Group. Trevor was also there, fully aware of her destination. By the time Celeste left the hospital, it was already late. Since she didn't need to return to Yoda Vision, she could go straight to Fleming Group. Trevor also had to get back to the company to handle matters. In theory, they could have gone together. But neither of them brought it up. Instead, they left the hospital one after the other, separately.
When Celeste finally arrived at Fleming Group, most people were already seated in the conference room, and the meeting had been underway for a while. After she finished speaking with a few people, she suddenly noticed that Trevor had entered the room at some point. She gave him a brief glance, then looked away.
A staff member sitting beside her leaned in and whispered with a smile, "Mr. Fleming came in more than ten minutes ago. He wasn't supposed to attend today's meeting. But once he arrived, he's been sitting there watching and listening to you talk the whole time... It's pretty obvious he came just to hear your 'lecture.'"
Celeste had already built a reputation in Fleming Group's technical department. In fact, many from the department wanted to attend her "lectures," but not everyone had access to their conference room. She said nothing in response. The meeting continued.
After Celeste finished another round of explanations, Trevor still showed no intention of leaving. Just then, someone glanced outside the glass wall and leaned toward him to whisper, "Mr. Fleming, Ms. Locket is here."
Trevor heard and retracted his gaze from Celeste, looking out toward the conference room entrance. Wynn was indeed standing just outside the door. Others in the room noticed her too. Since it was a break, someone gossiped in a low voice, "Mr. Fleming's girlfriend came to the office to find him again."
Celeste overheard the gossip but didn't respond. Seeing Wynn, Trevor stood up and left the conference room. Walking toward her, he asked, "Didn't you say you had something to handle at Innova Tech? Why did you suddenly come over?"

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
What a beautifully tense chapter! The quiet, almost melancholic conversation between Celeste and Trevor in the opening carries so much weight. Every word she says is laced with unspoken pain, and his offer of a "favor" feels hollow when what she truly wants can never be given. The contrast between the professional admiration Celeste earns from the R&D team and Wynn's possessive anxiety is striking. The chapter masterfully shows how Celeste moves through spaces that were never meant for her, yet she owns them with quiet competence. Wynn's jealousy is palpable, and Trevor's lingering gaze on Celeste at the conference table speaks louder than any dialogue.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Rating: 4.7 / 5 Stars**
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
Wynn's unexpected appearance at Fleming Group will surely upset the delicate balance. I predict she will try to assert her claim on Trevor in front of Celeste, perhaps by being overly affectionate or by provoking a reaction. However, Celeste will remain composed, likely ignoring Wynn's tactics, which will only make Wynn more desperate. Meanwhile, Trevor's attention during the meeting may reveal more than he intends, possibly leading to a confrontation between the two women – or a quiet moment where Trevor finally begins to question his own feelings. The postponed divorce is merely a ticking clock, and the emotional storm is building.
