The Breaking Point of Love or The Zillionaire’s Abandoned Wife Chapter 695

It was still morning, so most bars weren’t open yet.

Matthias was still trying to figure out where to take Celeste for a drink when she received two messages from Zachary.

Ten minutes later, instead of heading to a bar, Celeste went straight to the military base.

Every time she went there, she ended up working herself to the bone. This time was no different.

The same day she arrived, she pulled an all-nighter. It wasn’t until the following evening that things finally slowed down.

It was already past eight at night, and she still hadn’t had dinner.

After leaving the data room, she headed toward the cafeteria when she spotted a tall figure standing in the hallway outside. Their eyes met.

Celeste paused slightly.

Caleb, however, walked straight toward her.

“I heard you got here yesterday, but I’ve been tied up with missions these past few days. I just finished not long ago.”

“…Mm, you’ve worked hard.”

“Want to grab something to eat together?”

It was obvious he’d been waiting for her, so she could only agree.

They chatted casually as they walked to the cafeteria.

During the meal, they talked about work. When the conversation paused, Celeste looked up and realized Caleb had stopped eating and was watching her thoughtfully.

“What’s wrong?” she asked.

“Bad mood?”

Celeste froze for a moment.

The past two days had been so busy that she hadn’t had time to think. The heaviness in her chest had also been dulled by work. Since she hadn’t let herself dwell on anything, she thought she was doing fine.

“Is it that obvious?”

“Not really. But I can tell,” he said.

Back when he used to see her at the base, no matter what difficulties she ran into at work, her eyes were always full of drive and anticipation, even when she was exhausted.

He could tell she genuinely loved the work she did at the base, no matter how tiring it was. But now, although her focus was still on work, there was a faint trace of worry lingering in her eyes.

Most people probably wouldn’t notice it.

He set down his spoon and looked at her again. “Is it about him?”

Celeste knew who he meant. She kept eating and replied calmly, “You could say that.”

“What happened?”

He knew she and her husband still weren’t officially divorced. In the past, whenever he brought up her husband or the divorce, she rarely reacted much. So why did this time feel different…?

Celeste shook her head, not wanting to say more.

Seeing that, Caleb didn’t press further and changed the subject. “When are you leaving the base?”

“Probably in the next couple of days.”

“Alright.”

Over the next two days, Caleb waited by the entrance every day so they could go to the cafeteria together.

Zachary happened to run into them twice. He didn’t react much the first time, but the second time, when he saw Caleb waiting for Celeste again, he stopped and swept his gaze over the two of them.

His expression was calm and unreadable, but Celeste somehow felt like he had misunderstood the situation. She instinctively tried to explain.

“Prof, we’re not…”

“Okay.”

Before she could finish, Zachary responded briefly and turned to leave.

Celeste left the base on the afternoon of the fourth day.

When she saw Caleb at the exit, she froze for a moment.

The car that had come to pick her up pulled to a stop.

Caleb got in as well, taking the seat beside her with a smile. “Just so happens I’m on leave today. I’ll go with you.”

Celeste didn’t know what to say.
