That afternoon, not long after Celeste returned from the Fleming
Group, her phone suddenly rang.
It was Isabelle's psychiatrist. He explained that Isabelle had
experienced a brief moment of clarity, but soon after fell into a
breakdown unlike anything he'd had in years. 7
Celeste's expression changed instantly. She rushed to the
“How could this happen? What exactly went wrong?"
“We looked into it carefully, but nothing abnormal was found,”
the doctor replied.
But if there was no external trigger, how could her mother’s
condition suddenly worsen?
Watching the surveillance feed, Celeste saw her mother lying in
a medicated sleep. After speaking with the doctor for a long
while, she finally left, weighed down by unease.
When the elevator stopped on the next floor, the doors slid
open. She looked up—only to lock eyes with Linda and Patricia. 1
The moment Linda saw her, she shot her a glare and then lifted
her chin with a haughty snort and led Patricia into the elevator.

so much she won't stop fussing. But Wynn and Trev will be
dining out again tonight." 2
Patricia chuckled. “Is that so?"
Of course, Celeste knew they were saying it on purpose.
Already unsettled over her mother's sudden breakdown, her first
suspicion had been that someone had deliberately provoked
her. Yet the doctor insisted that Isabelle had had no outside
contact. 2
But still...
Hearing Linda's pointed words now, Celeste's gaze hardened. If
it really was them who had triggered her mother— =
Noticing that look, Linda lifted her chin higher, as if to say, "What
are you staring at? Think I'm scared of you?" 2
The elevator chimed, and the doors opened.
Celeste swept them a cold glance before striding out first.
She still had matters to handle at YodaVision, so she headed
back to the company.
Earlier, she and Matthias had wanted to arrange a meal with
Zachary's wife, Nadine, but she had something cup at the
last minute and had to cancel.
Now that Nadine was free, they arranged to have dinner together

Trevor, meanwhile, strolled behind them at an easy pace. 2
Linda might dislike Celeste, but the words she had deliberately
used to provoke Celeste in the afternoon at the hospital were
clearly true.
Celeste withdrew her gaze. +
By the tshe was done parking her car, the three of them had

Celeste turned and went upstairs.
When she arrived, Matthias and Nadine were already there.
Nadine smiled at the sight of Celeste. "Ah, Cece is here."
Celeste smiled in return. "Mrs. Newman,"
