However, Celeste didn't look up and continued discussing technical matters with the InnovaTech staff.Albert smiled. "Mr. Yoder, do you know Mr. Robinson and Mr. York?"Matthias replied, "Yeah."After all, they were all second- or third-generation elites in Baumond's upper circles, so naturally, they knew each other.It was just that he had taken a different path from them, so they weren't particularly close.After exchanging brief greetings with Matthias, Jorge and Xavier followed Albert to another area to discuss their business.Wynn, however, stayed with Matthias.She had also noticed Celeste, but after just one glance, she quickly withdrew her gaze, uninterested, and refocused on Matthias."Mr. Yoder, did you just arrive?" she asked.Matthias was highly capable in his own right, and on top of that, he was Zachary's student.Even though she could tell that he held some bias against her because of Celeste and had always been somewhat cold toward her, she still wanted to mai

When Celeste Rodriguez arrived at the airport in Andostan, it was already past 9:00 pm.It was her birthday that day. Therefore, she received a bunch of birthday wishes from her colleagues and friends when she turned on her phone. However, there was no message from her husband, Trevor Fleming, at all.Celeste's smile faded.By the time she reached the villa, it was already past 10:00 pm.Hannah Lynd, the housekeeper, was startled when she saw her. "Oh, Mrs. Fleming… Why have you come here?""Where are Trevor and Jo?" Celeste asked. "Mr. Fleming hasn't returned yet, and Ms. Fleming is in her room, playing," Hannah replied.Celeste handed her luggage to Hannah. When she went upstairs, she found Jordyn wearing a pair of pajamas and sitting at her table, fiddling with something. She was so focused that she didn't even notice anyone entering the room."Jo?" Celeste called out.Jordyn turned her head when she heard her. In a happy tone, she greeted, "Mom!"Then, she turned back

At around 9:00 pm, Trevor and Jordyn returned home.Jordyn clung to the hem of Trevor's coat and got out of the car sluggishly. Because Celeste was at home, she was reluctant to return that night.But Wynn had said that Celeste came specifically to be with her and Trevor, and if they didn't return, she would be sad. Trevor also said that if they didn't go home that night, Celeste would definitely insist on joining them on their outing to the sea the next day.Reluctantly, Jordyn agreed to come home.Still worried, she muttered gloomily, "Dad, what if Mom insists on tagging along with us tomorrow?""She won't," Trevor replied confidently.In all the years they'd been married, Celeste had always tried to find ways to spend more time with him. But she was also sensible. As long as he made his stance clear, she wouldn't dare make him upset.In Jordyn's memory, Celeste always listened to Trevor. Since he said she wouldn't, she felt reassured. As a result, her mood lifted. She made he

Zeke was one of Trevor's personal secretaries. When he saw Celeste's resignation letter, he was extremely surprised.He was one of the few in the company who knew about the relationship between Celeste and Trevor.Anyone familiar with Trevor knew that he didn't love Celeste. So, he had been cold to her and rarely went home after their marriage.To get closer to and win over Trevor, Celeste had chosen to work at Fleming Group.Her initial goal was to become his personal secretary, but Trevor refused vehemently. Even when Arnold stepped in, he couldn't get Trevor to agree. In the end, Celeste had to settle for a position in the secretarial team, becoming one of Trevor's many ordinary secretaries.At first, Zeke had worried that Celeste's presence in the secretarial team would create chaos. But to his surprise, she didn't bring them any trouble. Although Celeste used her position to get closer to Trevor, she was mindful of her timing and never overstepped her boundaries. On the con

Jordyn jumped out of bed in excitement. "Really?""Yes, really," Trevor replied."Then why didn't Wynn tell me just now?""It was just finalized. She doesn't know yet."Jordyn was ecstatic. "Dad, let's keep this a secret from Wynn. We'll surprise her when we go back to the country, okay?""Alright.""You're the best, Dad! I love you so much!"After hanging up, Jordyn was still overjoyed. She sang and danced on her bed.After a while, she suddenly thought of Celeste. For the past few days, she had been in a great mood because Celeste hadn't called her. In fact, to avoid talking to Celeste, she had deliberately left home early and even turned off her phone or kept it far away from her after school.But after two days, she was worried that Celeste might get angry if she found out. So, she stopped doing that. To her surprise, Celeste hadn't called at all in the days that followed.At first, she thought Celeste had discovered that she was deliberately avoiding her calls. But then

Over the years, Matthias and Celeste had rarely seen each other. Yet, even from just a few encounters, Matthias could tell that she was no longer the confident and spirited person she had once been.Matthias thought back to the Celeste he knew from the past. He could never have associated the word "insecure" with that individual. He didn't know much about Celeste's marriage to Trevor, but he was completely clueless about her sorry state which was essentially an open secret.He had his suspicions but didn't voice them. Instead, he sincerely encouraged, "Falling behind for a time doesn't matter. Your ability and talent surpass that of most geniuses. As long as you're still passionate about this field, it's never too late to start again."Don't forget that you were our teacher's favorite student throughout his entire career."Celeste smiled as she listened to him. "If he heard that, he'd probably scoff and say that he didn't have much of a choice and could only settle on the least bad

The next day, Celeste unexpectedly ran into Trevor at the company. She hadn't known that Trevor and Jordyn had returned to the country. Caught off guard by their sudden encounter, Celeste froze mid-step.Trevor also seemed slightly surprised to see her, but he assumed she had just returned from the business trip and didn't think much of it.He passed by her coldly, his face expressionless. As usual, he treated her like she was a stranger and turned to enter the building.In the past, if Celeste had found out that he'd suddenly come back, she would have been overjoyed. Even if she couldn't throw herself into his arms in such a scenario, she would have been very happy and excited. Her eyes would light up as she greeted him. Even if Trevor remained indifferent, she would have smiled and wished him good morning enthusiastically.But now, Celeste merely glanced at his handsome face before lowering her eyes. There was no longer any trace of the joy and excitement she once felt.Trevor

The two colleagues beside Celeste stole glances at Wynn and hurriedly stepped back, pressing themselves against the wall.Wynn noticed Celeste too but quickly looked away. Her expression was indifferent, and she acted as if Celeste didn't exist. She stepped into the elevator with the managers surrounding her.As the elevator doors closed, Celeste's two colleagues breathed a sigh of relief before resuming their excited gossip."That must've been Mr. Fleming's girlfriend, right? Wow, she's stunning! Look at all those designer labels—what she's wearing must cost a fortune! As expected of someone from an affluent family. She's so confident and poised. Compared to us ordinary people, she's on a different level!""Exactly!"They turned to Celeste and asked quietly, "What do you think, Celeste?"Lowering her eyes, Celeste answered lightly, "Yeah, you're right."Wynn was, in fact, the illegitimate daughter of Harvey Locket, Celeste's birth father.Well, the term "illegitimate" wasn't e

Maybe because he saw how exhausted they were, Zachary let Matthias and Celeste go home early that night.After a long day, Celeste took a shower as soon as she got home and went to bed early.…There was something that needed their attention at InnovaTech the next day.In the afternoon, Celeste and Matthias found time to make a trip there. As soon as they arrived, they started discussing technical issues.Not long after, Jorge and Xavier walked in, led by InnovaTech staff. Both of them looked surprised to see Celeste.Xavier raised an eyebrow. "She's actually an employee at InnovaTech? What a coincidence."Jorge shrugged. He didn't even really know her, so how would he know if she worked at InnovaTech?Hearing their conversation, one of the InnovaTech staff members said, "Are you talking about Ms. Rodriguez? She's not an employee here. She's a tech specialist from YodaVision, and she's here today to help with some technical issues."Sensing that someone was looking at her, Cel

Wynn was momentarily stunned before she pressed her lips together.This wasn't the answer she'd wanted.Zachary was about to push the door open and leave when Wynn quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Newman, how do you think I should improve?"Zachary paused for a brief moment and replied indifferently, "Do more research. Keep up with the latest developments in the industry."Just as he finished speaking, Trevor returned.Before he could say anything, Zachary stated, "I've done what I needed to do. I'll contact you in a few days.""Alright."With that, Zachary left.Trevor looked at Wynn and noticed her expression wasn't great. "Didn't go well?"Wynn nodded frankly. "He didn't accept me.""What did Mr. Newman say? Tell me about it."Wynn recounted the entire conversation, including Zachary's evaluation and advice."You're definitely capable," Trevor said. "And I think his advice is quite fair."Wynn paused. Lately, she had indeed spent less time diving into professiona

After watching Jordyn and Beck leave, Trevor and Wynn also got into their car and headed to the restaurant.A few minutes after they arrived in their private dining room, Zachary also arrived."Mr. Newman." Seeing Zachary push the door open, Trevor and Wynn both stood up to greet him.Zachary showed no surprise upon seeing Wynn.Wynn politely reintroduced herself, "Hello, Mr. Newman. My name is Wynn Locket. We met before at the technology exhibition—""I know." Zachary's expression remained neutral as he briefly shook her hand.After he had sat down, Wynn took the seat beside him and said, "I greatly admire you. I've always hoped for the opportunity to meet you in person and discuss the AI industry face-to-face.""Mm."At that moment, Trevor's phone buzzed. He stood up and said to them, "I need to take a call. You two go ahead and talk."Wynn nodded.After Trevor had stepped out, Wynn picked up the menu and handed it to Zachary. "Mr. Newman, shall we order first and discuss t

It wasn't until noon, when it was time for lunch, that Matthias and Celeste finally got a chance to take a breather.At that moment, Celeste's phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Lottie, asking if she wanted to go skiing with her in the afternoon.Celeste replied via voice message, "I have things to do today, so I won't be going. You go ahead and have fun.""Alright then."In the evening, while Celeste stepped out of Zachary's study to get some water, Lottie sent her another message.This time, it was a few photos. And the people in the photos were none other than Trevor, Wynn, Jordyn, Beck, and Shanice.Then, Lottie sent another message: "My friends and I were having such a great time skiing, but then we ran into them. Totally ruined the mood!"Celeste only clicked on one photo. Once she confirmed who was in them, she didn't bother looking at the rest.Seeing Lottie's complaint, she calmly replied with a voice message, "Just enjoy yourselves and ignore them."Lottie qu

Perhaps guessing the reason for Celeste's hesitation, Beck said, "I can guarantee you that personal matters will never interfere with business between me and your uncle."Hearing this, Celeste asked, "Are you sure?""I'm sure."Celeste knew Ivan's company was in a difficult situation. So, after a moment of hesitation, she said, "Alright.""Let me know when you're free, and I'll arrange a time to meet.""Alright," Celeste replied.At that moment, Beck looked at her dark hair, slightly tousled by the cold wind, and said, "The night wind is chilly. You should head inside."Celeste paused. Those were the exact same words Trevor had said to her just moments ago.She nodded without saying anything else and got into her car.Beck remained where he was.As her car passed him, Celeste rolled down the window, nodded to him as a farewell, then stepped on the gas and drove away.Only after watching her car disappear into the distance did Beck get into his own car and leave.Betty, Ivan

Jordyn wrapped her arms around Celeste's neck, burying her small face against it to shield herself from the cold wind.Celeste's clothes were soft and warm, and Jordyn snuggled into her embrace, rubbing her face against her neck with enjoyment.Trevor was always punctual. By the time Celeste carried Jordyn to the parking lot, his car had pulled in.Seeing them, the car stopped right beside Celeste.Even though her dad had arrived, Jordyn didn't get down from Celeste's arms. Instead, she playfully said to Trevor, who had lowered the car window, "Dad, carry me inside."Trevor didn't say anything. He simply got out of the car and took Jordyn from Celeste's arms.Happily, Jordyn swung her legs in the air while nestled in his hold.As Trevor leaned in to take her, Celeste caught a familiar scent—Wynn's perfume.When he had been sitting beside her earlier, he hadn't smelled like this.This meant that after leaving them, he had gone to the Shaw family.Trevor looked at her and said,

Zachary said, "Sure."Trevor nodded and turned to Celeste. "Are you going home tonight?"Celeste had still been going over the conversation between Trevor and Zachary in her head. When he suddenly spoke to her, she paused for a moment before responding, "No."Trevor nodded again. "Got it." Then he stood up and said, "I'll come by later to pick Jo up."That meant he was leaving.Celeste replied coldly, "Got it."Trevor didn't say anything else to her. Instead, he walked over to Betty and said, "Madam Klein, I have things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."Betty didn't stand up, and her tone was equally cold, "Sure. I won't see you off."Trevor didn't seem bothered by her indifference. He turned to Ivan, gave him a slight nod as a form of greeting, and then left the banquet hall.Outside the hotel, Beck had just stepped out of his car when he saw Trevor walking out. His movements stalled for a brief moment.Trevor quickly got into his car and drove off.Beck watched but re

Neither Celeste nor Trevor spoke again.Celeste's younger cousins had rarely seen Trevor before. Now that they were seeing him in person, they couldn't help but look at him with curiosity.As someone who had held a position of power for years, Trevor exuded authority effortlessly, even without trying. When he noticed their gazes, he glanced at them briefly.Unable to meet his eyes, they instinctively looked away, not daring to stare any longer.Trevor showed no reaction to this, nor did he make any effort to exchange pleasantries. He simply shifted his gaze away, calm and indifferent.Trevor was the man Celeste loved. She had thrown herself into this love headfirst, and after all these years, she still couldn't escape.Given the way Trevor had treated his own niece for so long, it was impossible for Ivan not to harbor resentment toward him.However, what could he do?The Rodriguez family was powerless against Trevor.Now that Trevor was here, as the host, Ivan had no choice bu
