Not long after, Trevor received a call from the auction house.Upon hearing the news, his expression remained unchanged as he replied, "Alright, I got it."The person on the other end asked, "Would you like us to hold onto these two items for you?"Trevor said, "No need."Sensing his indifference, the caller didn't dare to ask further and quickly ended the call.Sitting beside him at the dining table, Wynn asked, "Something wrong with the company?"Trevor put his phone back in his pocket and replied, "No, it was a call from the auction house."Wynn smiled and was about to say something when Jordyn interjected, "What's an auction house?"Trevor, holding his knife and fork, cut a piece of meat and replied, "A place where treasures are auctioned.""Auctioning treasures? What kind of treasures? Is it fun?"Wynn chuckled. "It's actually quite fun. Jordyn, have you never been to one?"Jordyn shook her head. "Nope." She then asked, "Are there a lot of treasures there?"Trevor repl

Trevor's feelings for Wynn were beyond doubt. So, that scene where Trevor was holding Celeste was most likely just a misunderstanding.…On Friday morning, shortly after Celeste got up, she received a call from Betty, asking her to accompany her to Harry Jennings' art exhibition on Sunday morning.Betty was a devoted fan of Harry, a renowned artist. The last time he held an exhibition was over a decade ago.Since this was a rare opportunity, Celeste said, "Sure, I'll go with you on Sunday."Just as she hung up, another call came in—it was Jordyn.This was the first time Jordyn had called her since Monday, after attending the parent-child event at her school.Celeste didn't pick up.…On Saturday afternoon, she went back to the Rodriguez residence for dinner.Then, on Sunday morning, Celeste and Betty left together for the exhibition.When they arrived, just as Celeste stepped out of the car, she saw Matthias' car pulling in as well.Surprised, she called out, "Matthias?"M

Celeste tightened her grip on Betty's arm.Betty calmly patted the back of her hand and said, "It's fine."If they could predict that she would come, how could she not have anticipated that they would be here as well?Matthias said, "Madam Klein, I'll go inside and find Mr. Jennings Senior. Why don't you and Cel come with me?"He was offering to introduce them to Harry, giving her a chance to speak with her idol.But Betty shook her head and said, "Being able to see so many of the artist's paintings in one place is already an honor for me. I don't want to disturb him."Since she had made up her mind, Matthias had no choice but to drop the idea. Still, with the Lockets and the Shaws present, he was a little worried about them.Celeste reassured him, "Go ahead, don't worry about us."The Lockets and the Shaws cared a lot about their reputation. In this kind of setting, they wouldn't dare do anything to them.With that, Matthias left.Celeste asked, "Grandma, which painting woul

Jorge recalled that Harvey had mentioned Wynn and Trevor would also be attending. So, he stood up and said, "Alright, once your grandfather is done, send me a message.""Sure."Jorge and Xavier then stepped outside.Just as they left, Beck and Miles arrived.The Lockets and the Shaws immediately went up to greet them.Beck shook hands with Harvey. Then, Miles glanced around. "Where are Trevor and Wynn? They haven't—"Before he could finish his sentence, his gaze landed on Celeste. "Damn!"She was here too.Beck, unaware of what was going on, followed his gaze and also spotted Celeste. His eyes darkened slightly.At that moment, Matthias was walking toward Celeste and Betty.Beck turned back to Miles and Harvey and said, "I'm going over to say hello." With that, he left."Mr. Yoder, Ms. Rodriguez." Hearing his voice, Matthias and Celeste turned around.Matthias greeted, "Oh, it's Mr. Harper."Upon hearing the name, Betty recalled what Hector and Ivan had mentioned before an

Seeing Beck actually talking to Celeste, Linda's eyes widened in shock. She couldn't help but ask Miles, "Why is Beck talking to her?"Before Miles could respond, she immediately started walking in their direction.Lilian grabbed her arm and said calmly, "They're discussing business.""Business?""Mhm."Linda pursed her lips and huffed, suppressing her impulses, but her eyes remained fixed on Celeste and Beck.Celeste was wearing a long winter dress today. Even though she hadn't put much effort into dressing up, she still stood out.Standing next to Beck, they unexpectedly looked well-matched.Although Linda knew there couldn't be anything between them, she still felt uneasy. She couldn't help but tug at Miles' sleeve. "Miles, what are they talking about? Why is it taking so long?"Linda's feelings for Beck were obvious.Miles had known Beck for years and was well aware that Beck wasn't interested in girls with a spoiled, willful personality like hers.Besides, Beck had made

"You're back, Beck," Linda called out sweetly when she saw Beck return. Beck gave her a cold nod. Lilian noticed Trevor was looking for Wynn. "Wynn's outside. She's on the phone," she said. Trevor replied, "Okay, thanks."Just as he finished his words, a commotion arose in the distance.It was Harry making his way to the crowd. Harold, Caleb, and the rest of the Jennings were there as well. With a packed house, Harry patiently waited for the chatter to die down before thanking everyone else for coming. Celeste and Matthias stood further at the back, but Harold still saw them.Matthias attended with a gift on behalf of his grandfather, Alvin. Caleb had already informed Harold and Harry about it. Yet Harold didn't know Celeste came as well. Seeing her, Harold greeted her with a warm nod and a smile. Celeste had never known there was a connection between Harold and Harry. She returned Harold's greeting with a polite smile. The Lockets and Shaws noticed that Harold

Wynn replied politely, "That's very kind of you to say."Harry then glanced at the group and teased, "Looks like it's time for you guys to step up, too."Just then, Harold arrived with Celeste and Matthias in tow. He turned to Harry. "Father, meet the youngest Yoder. His company, YodaVision, has seen remarkable growth and is on the government's priority list for future support." He continued, "This is Celeste Rodriguez, the core technical developer at YodaVision and a rare talent in the field. The company owes much of its success to her." People of the older generation often had a greater concern for the future of the country. Hearing Harold's words, Harry's smile softened as he remarked, "That's wonderful. With the talent we have, there's a lot to look forward to."Harold also took the opportunity to introduce Betty to Harry. Then, Harry and Betty started chatting about art. Having been raised in a cultured household, Betty regularly practiced calligraphy and painting.

After briefly greeting everyone once more, Harry left and disappeared into his private quarters. Celeste, Matthias, Trevor, Beck, the Shaws, and the Lockets all went inside as well. With so many people inside, the Lockets and the Shaws didn't stand out at all. Everyone took their seats in the pavilion while the servants served tea and snacks. Harry and Betty had a lively and cheerful discussion. Apart from Betty, Harry had two friends who were also well-versed in painting. In high spirits, Harry and his friends opted to create a painting right then and there, asking Betty to join in. Harry instructed Caleb, "Go to my study and get me my painting tools, Caleb.""Okay."Upon finishing, Harry spoke highly of Betty's artistic skill. Then, they started talking about the painting again. Celeste and Matthias chose not to interrupt their conversation and instead relaxed in the pavilion, enjoying the tea and snacks. Her seat was quite a distance away from the Lockets and S

That wasn't a good sign. Hence, they wanted to talk to Celeste about it. Harvey spoke first. "Cel, I…"Before Celeste could respond, Matthias chuckled and interrupted, "Mr. Locket, are you here to announce your relationship with Cel?"Harvey's smile faltered, and then he awkwardly laughed. "Mr. Yoder, I need to talk to Cel for a moment, can you…"Matthias cut him off. "If you're eager for everyone to know about your relationship with Cel, you're welcome to say anything."Harvey didn't want to upset Matthias. Hence, he could only leave with Lennox. However, before he left, he turned to Celeste. "I'll call you later tonight. Don't forget to pick it up."Celeste remained silent. She couldn't be bothered with him. As for the call, there was no way she was answering it. Matthias was frustrated. "Man, I really want to just lash out at him."How could Celeste not feel the same? The problem was, when it came to her situation with Trevor, she had never been able to prove h

Harry and Brandon glanced at Trevor, then at Celeste. As their gazes landed on Wynn, they furrowed their brows. After a moment of silence, Trevor spoke up. "It's been a while since you played chess, hasn't it?"While examining his setup, she simply nodded and hummed in reply, not looking up.She barely played chess anymore after marrying him. "I can tell you're a little rusty," Trevor remarked.Celeste didn't say anything in reply, her attention fixed on the chessboard. The game wasn't going well for her right now. It looked like there was a promising opening on Trevor's side, but in truth, his hidden pieces were lying in wait, ready to trap her. She pondered for a moment. Then, she avoided the trap he had laid and made her move somewhere else.And now, Trevor was at a disadvantage. He smirked and, after a long moment, placed his next piece on the board. The tension in the game increased again. After several more moves, Celeste was defeated, but it was a close game.
The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 218
From then on, Wynn started paying more attention to Celeste's moves. When she saw Celeste resolve the tricky situation Trevor had set up for her in a way she hadn't anticipated, she felt a sense of unease. Hearing Brandon's praise, her heart sank even lower. Celeste was fully absorbed in the game, blocking out everything around her.She was holding her ground for now. However, she knew that winning was almost out of reach. Thus, she paused for a second, looking at Trevor. Trevor made another move. And Celeste halted her movements. Harry chuckled. "This is incredible. I never imagined I'd witness such an amazing game here, especially played by two young ones. Well done!"Brandon was frustrated since he broke his concentration. "Shush, shush!"Harry was at a loss for words. After a few minutes, Celeste made her move, subtly shifting the game back to her advantage. Two minutes later, Trevor countered with a move. Then, Celeste set the chess piece down and said, "I l

Just then, Trevor spoke. "Okay."Celeste sat across from him. Once the shock wore off, Wynn's face returned to its usual calm. After greeting Harry, she went to stand beside Trevor. It wasn't just Beck, the Lockets, and the Shaws were surprised; Caleb and Harry were just as stunned. While Harold had introduced Celeste to them in the gallery earlier, they still didn't know much about her. Seeing how quiet and reserved Celeste was, they figured she wasn't the type to draw attention to herself. Hence, they assumed that even if she knew how to play chess, she wouldn't just challenge others publicly like that. Brandon didn't know Celeste as well, but he did notice her presence. With her striking appearance and gentle, well-mannered personality, Celeste came across the picture of a well-raised, polite young woman. To him, this kind of young woman seemed to be a great fit as his grandson's wife. He didn't expect Celeste to know how to play chess too. Trevor looked at Ce

Brandon smiled. "Indeed. It's not bad at all."Upon finishing his words, he asked again, "Aren't you busy with your painting? Why are you here?""Well, I didn't want you to think that I wasn't a good host, so I came over to take a look.""Go take care of your stuff; don't disturb me while I watch the match."However, Harry stayed. When the Shaws and Lockets heard Brandon and Harry praise Wynn, smiles spread across their faces. A lot of people there knew Wynn, and many felt both envious and jealous of her. After all, Wynn had the looks and the credentials. And now, thanks to her chess skills, she caught the attention of Harry and Brandon. Besides, Wynn's charm had earned Trevor's affection, helping both the Shaws and Lockets rise effortlessly in status. What parent wouldn't want a daughter like that?With envy, someone remarked to the Lockets and Shaws, "What a fantastic daughter and granddaughter you have.""Exactly!" the others agreed, then asked, "How did you manage t

As Celeste reviewed the moves, the comment made her pause, a flicker of interest surfacing.Just then, she heard Wynn's voice. "Mr. Keller Senior, I'd love to give it a shot after seeing your match. But with my abilities, beating Trevor might be…""Ah, it's all in good fun; I wasn't being serious." Brandon laughed. "If you'd like to play, go ahead."Wynn was about to speak when someone chuckled. "If Ms. Locket joins, the game could go either way.""Right? Mr. Fleming might be great at chess, but if he actually defeats Ms. Locket, he'll probably have some explaining to do at home."With that, laughter rippled through the crowd. Brandon wasn't aware of Wynn and Trevor's relationship. Upon hearing the remark, he observed Wynn's elegance and confidence. She truly seemed like a fitting match for Trevor. Then, he smiled, looking at Trevor as he teased, "Oh? In that case, I'm curious to see if you can still keep your cool playing against your girlfriend like you did with me."Unfa

Trevor put away the glass and responded, "The honor is mine, Mr. Keller Senior."Then, he settled into the seat across from Brandon. "Mr. Keller Senior, please go easy on me."Wynn, Beck, and the others came over to spectate the match. Celeste and Matthias joined the crowd as well. However, they were standing behind Brandon. Wynn, Beck, and the others knew how to play chess. Seeing Celeste watching intently, as if she was familiar with chess, Beck headed over to her. He asked, "You play chess?"Celeste answered, "A little bit."With that, Matthias went speechless.A bit? More like a whole lot. But he didn't say that aloud. Since they weren't familiar with each other's playstyles, Brandon and Trevor started off with cautious, unclear moves. Over time, they seemed to grasp each other's tendencies, and Brandon adopted a more offensive strategy. Trevor, on the other hand, was countering Brandon's aggressive moves and searching carefully for his own openings. It loo
