Chapter 230

Author: Cloudsearcher
Jordyn turned to Trevor, who was sitting nearby, watching them. "Dad, I want to eat here. Can we have the food packed and brought back?"

Trevor said, "Okay."

Jordyn immediately brightened up and hugged Celeste even tighter.

Betty and Martha had plenty to talk about. Celeste, on the other hand, mostly sat quietly, occasionally chiming in with a few words.

After a while, Jordyn started feeling tired and asked Celeste, "Mom, when will you be done with work?"

Not wanting Betty to hear, Celeste picked her up and carried her over to the couch near the hospital bed before answering, "I'm not sure, but if things go as expected, I will probably get even busier."

"Huh?" Jordyn didn't expect that answer and was visibly disappointed.

"Then when will you have time to take me skiing?" She hadn't forgotten about it.

Celeste thought for a moment and said, "Next month."

"Really?"

"Mm." Celeste nodded. "When I have time, I'll let you know."

"Okay!" Jordyn instantly perked up.

    Celeste remained calm.As she had thought before—with Trevor's memory, remembering these details wasn't surprising. The fact that he prepared these dishes was likely just his way of thanking them for visiting Martha.It didn't mean anything else.After finishing their meal, Celeste and Betty sat for another hour before getting ready to leave.Seeing that it was getting late, Martha didn't insist on keeping them and instead said to Trevor, "You and Jo should head home early too.""Alright," Trevor replied. "I'll come see you tomorrow morning."The four of them left the hospital room together.Once they entered the elevator, Trevor asked, "Did you drive here yourself?"Celeste replied with a hum.Trevor didn't say anything more, but Jordyn suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Mom, are you not coming home tonight too?""No," Celeste replied. "I'm taking your Granny home and staying over at her place for the night.""Then I want to stay at Granny's house too!"Alth

    Jordyn leaned over as well. Seeing Trevor, she said, "Oh! It's Dad! Mom, let Dad in!"Celeste lowered her eyes. "Mm."The rest of the Rodriguez family overheard their conversation. They were a bit surprised to learn that Trevor was coming over, but since Jordyn was there, they didn't ask Celeste why he was here.A moment later, Trevor arrived.Celeste went out to meet him and asked, "Are you here to pick my grandmother up to visit the hospital?""Yes."Celeste nodded. "Wait a moment."Trevor replied, "Alright." He remained seated in his car.About ten minutes later, Betty finally came out of the house.Seeing this, Trevor got out and opened the car door for her.Jordyn was also getting ready to leave for school and said to Trevor, "Bye, Dad!""Goodbye."After exchanging nods with Celeste and the rest of the Rodriguez family, he got into his car and drove away.Celeste also got into her car and took Jordyn to school.At 11:30 am, while Celeste was busy at work, Betty calle

    Seeing Trevor reach out, Celeste had no choice but to hand him the flowers she was holding.She didn't look at Miles or Beck and instead walked straight to the bedside, asking Martha, "How are you feeling now?""Still a little sore, but it's alright," Martha said.Having just undergone surgery not long ago, she was already feeling a bit fatigued. She reached out to hold Celeste's hand and said, "You've been working all day—are you tired? Have you eaten? Why don't you join Trevor and the others for dinner later?"Celeste replied, "It's fine, Grandma. I ate at the office before coming over."Seeing that Celeste was still maintaining her distance from Trevor, Martha paused and didn't insist any further.Celeste chatted with her for a little while longer. When Martha began to feel tired and wanted to rest, Celeste prepared to leave.Martha asked Trevor to walk her out. Since he and the others were about to go for dinner anyway, she left with them.Inside the elevator, Miles kept

    Jordyn ran over excitedly. "Wow, so much delicious food! And milkshakes too!""Mm." Trevor said, "I knew you were coming, so I had some things prepared."As he spoke, his gaze landed on Celeste. Seeing that she ignored him, he shifted his focus to Hector and Jamie, nodding at them before standing up and saying, "Sit."Trevor carried an imposing presence.So, after greeting Martha, Jamie and Hector instinctively followed his words, sitting down with Jordyn and sharing the food that she and Trevor passed to them.Once the children started eating, Trevor handed Celeste a serving. "Try it?"Noticing that Martha was watching, Celeste accepted it and said, "Thank you."She took a sip and realized it was strawberry-flavored—exactly to her taste.Hearing that they were going skiing, Martha turned to Trevor and said, "Trevor, you should go with Cel and the kids."She continued, "Skiing is a dangerous activity. It'll be too much for Cel to watch over three children alone. Go help her. I

    Celeste said to Trevor, "My uncle said someone from Fleming Group approached him about a project collaboration."Trevor was about to respond when Celeste continued, "I know you don't want to owe me or my grandmother, and you're trying to express your gratitude in this way."But my grandmother and I visit your grandmother at the hospital because of her, not because of you. So, you don't need to offer us any projects."If they did business with Fleming Group, the Lockets and the Shaws would surely be displeased and stir up trouble.Even if he was sincerely trying to thank her and her grandmother by offering the project to her uncle to help him, the fact remained that the woman he loved was Wynn.If, one day, he wavered and changed his mind, the so-called help now would turn into a burden. And if it happened, the ones who would bear the consequences would still be the Rodriguez family.She couldn't afford to accept his offer.With an indifferent tone, she added, "You can also rest

    Ruby anxiously said, "I heard that in the few days since Martha got injured, Trevor and Celeste—even the other members of the Rodriguez family—have been in frequent contact."Yesterday, someone even saw Trevor having a meal with the old lady from the Rodriguez family. Could they be rekindling their past relationship?""There was never a relationship to rekindle," Wynn replied calmly, though she disliked Ruby's choice of words.Seeing how worried Ruby was, Wynn patiently explained, "Madam Daniels has a close relationship with the Rodriguez family. Trevor needs to keep Celeste and the old lady on good terms, so they'll continue visiting Martha. "That way, Martha won't use her surgery as leverage to force Trevor to break up with me."Ruby had never thought of this.Ever since Martha's fall, she had expelled both their families from the Fleming Group. For the past two days, both families had been worried that Martha would demand Trevor and Wynn break up as a condition for agreeing t

    During lunch, Celeste bought movie tickets. After eating, they watched the movie and then went shopping for a while.While Jamie was trying on clothes and Hector was buying figurines, Celeste said to Jordyn, "I'll take you home later.""Home?" Sitting beside her, Jordyn said, "I don't want to go home. I want to stay at Granny's for another night. I'll go back tomorrow evening."Celeste took a sip of water and said, "Jamie and Hector have spent the whole day with you. Tomorrow, they need to focus on their homework. If you stay at Granny's, you'll distract them.""I don't need them to play with me. I can play on my tablet by myself."Celeste didn't say anything more, but she found a moment to send Trevor a message, asking him to have someone pick Jordyn up later.Trevor was probably busy, as he didn't reply for a long time.After Jamie finished shopping, they walked around a bit more before heading back to the Rodriguez residence.Betty and Ivan were genuinely happy to see Jordyn

    After Jordyn left, Celeste went upstairs, turned on her computer, and got to work.About an hour later, Jason sent her some documents to review.Celeste opened them and looked through them. The first thing that caught her eye was the three newly added properties, with their specific locations clearly marked.She paused when she saw the details.All three properties were vacant units in the Rodriguez family's residential neighborhood, and they were relatively close to the Rodriguez residence.To be honest, although Trevor had previously helped her buy the house in front of the Rodriguez residence, that alone didn't completely put her at ease.After all, Betty loved going out for walks. Even if the Shaw family no longer lived right across from her, as long as they were in the same neighborhood, they would inevitably run into each other.That had always worried her. But now…Looking at this new agreement—was Trevor trying to eliminate her concerns once again?Even though he was l

    Trevor didn't have time to accompany Jordyn, but he could spend time with Wynn?Before Celeste could say anything, Jordyn spoke again, "Mom, I wish you had called earlier. If you had called earlier, I could have shown you a video from the helicopter."Celeste could tell that Jordyn was very pleased with Trevor's arrangements this time.For a moment, Celeste didn't know what to say. But she couldn't shake the heavy feeling of frustration growing in her chest.Jordyn continued talking about her plans for the next day and mentioned that she would be returning to the country that evening.Celeste listened, and before she could respond, Jordyn suddenly asked eagerly, "Mom, do you have time tomorrow? I want to call you again."Celeste snapped back to reality, and after two seconds, she replied, "I have time tomorrow.""Yay!"Knowing that Jordyn was already on her way back to the hotel, Celeste felt a lot more at ease. After chatting for a little while longer, she ended the video call

    Celeste was thinking the same thing.So, she replied to Trevor."I'm busy. Also, please keep your promise and make sure she doesn't go to my grandmother's house."After a while, Trevor replied, "Okay."After that, Trevor didn't contact her again.…On the third afternoon of the May Day holiday, while Celeste and her family were preparing to enjoy rafting at a scenic spot, Lottie sent her a photo.The person in the photo was Wynn.Lottie was currently in Galdovia, busy with a fashion show.Celeste looked at the photo and replied, "Is she watching your show?"Lottie replied, "Yes! Talk about bad vibes."Then, she sent another message. "She's alone, though. I didn't see Trevor."Celeste responded with an "Okay," not particularly concerned about the situation, and asked, "When are you coming back?""Not sure yet." Lottie had other things to attend to, so they chatted for a bit before she got busy.More than ten minutes later, Lottie video-called her..Celeste hesitated, and

    "Are you aware of the termination of the contract between YodaVision and InnovaTech?"Your student, Matthias, has become increasingly arrogant and indulgent, unable to distinguish right from wrong because of his obsession with love. Have you noticed this?"Jorge had intended to say these things, but when his eyes caught sight of Trevor, the words suddenly got stuck in his throat.These were, after all, matters concerning Wynn.Now that both Wynn and Trevor were present, Jorge felt that he had no place to speak on the subject. If he spoke out of turn in front of so many people, it would be equivalent to revealing his thoughts about Wynn to others.That would cause Wynn unnecessary trouble.Thinking of this, Jorge noticed Donald standing beside Trevor. He was aware of Donald's identity.Now that InnovaTech and YodaVision had signed the termination agreement, and then Wynn and Trevor were having a meal with Donald…He immediately realized what this meant.DataWing was indeed t

    Wynn quickly signed the termination agreement.As for the compensation, she promised to pay it within the specified time in the agreement.After receiving the news, Matthias snorted, "She sure is quick to act."The subsequent matters were handled by the lawyers. After Wynn signed the termination agreement, neither Celeste nor Matthias paid much attention to it.…Three days later, Zachary had a break, and the three of them hadn't seen each other for a while, so they made plans to meet for a meal.At noon, Celeste and Matthias left the office. When they arrived at the restaurant, they ran into Wynn and Trevor at the entrance.With them was also Donald Johansen, the CEO of another local AI company.Donald and Matthias were familiar with each other and had a decent relationship. They would often sit down and chat when they met.Now, seeing Matthias, Donald greeted him first, "Mr. Yoder."Matthias didn't even glance at Trevor and Wynn, responding with a smile, "Mr. Johansen."Do

    After confirming the contract termination, Wynn called Trevor to inform him about the situation."On the day of the auction, I misspoke during my conversation with Melissa, and she caught it. Matthias' reluctance to work with InnovaTech has also become very obvious."Even if I win the lawsuit, it would be difficult to guarantee that Matthias and his family won't cause trouble in the future. "Since they have no intention of collaborating with InnovaTech, I think it's better to terminate the contract early and find new partners. It may not be a bad thing."Trevor didn't ask what she had said that caused Melissa to latch onto her words.He just said, "Since you've decided, let's go ahead with the termination. Do you need my help with the termination fees?"To be honest, Wynn was somewhat moved by his offer. However, ever since her family moved to Baumond, Trevor had already done so much for them.Moreover, if she continued to expect him to help with everything, even if she was tal

    Melissa likes Celeste? How is that possible?If what Miles said was true, then what she told Melissa yesterday…Thinking about how Melissa had left during their conversation yesterday, Wynn's heart sank.Perhaps noticing her change in expression, Trevor, concerned, asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"Wynn snapped back to reality, forcing a smile. "No, I'm fine."Later that day, she informed her family.Upon hearing that Melissa liked Celeste so much, even agreeing to let her be their daughter-in-law, both the Shaw family and the Locket family were in disbelief."Celeste is married with a child, and her family background is ordinary. But Matthias' family is well-off and successful. How could the Yoder family possibly agree to them being together? Did Mr. Quinton misunderstand?""That's right," Linda hurriedly added, "Or maybe that woman hid her past? The Yoder family doesn't know she was married, which is why they—"Wynn also couldn't understand why the Yoder family

    The next morning, Trevor, Jordyn, and Wynn arrived early at the sports hall for Jordyn's competition.After they had been there for a while, Beck and Shanice arrived as well.Jordyn saw them and greeted, "Mr. Harper, Shanice, you're here."Shanice came over and shook Jordyn's hand. "The competition is about to start. Are you nervous, Jo?"Jordyn was very calm and shook her head. "No, I'm fine."Beck had some business to attend to, and he was just dropping Shanice off.Trevor knew Beck was in a hurry and said, "I'll take care of Shanice. You can go ahead with your things."Beck nodded. "Alright, I'll join you all for lunch later.""Okay."Their relationship seemed to be as good as ever. However…Wynn listened to their conversation, her gaze shifting between Trevor and Beck. If Trevor knew that Beck had developed feelings for Celeste, would their relationship still be as good as it was now?Beck noticed her gaze and gave her a slight nod. But he didn't speak to her, just turne

    After Sebastian and Melissa left, Trevor asked, "Did you finish talking to Mrs. Yoder?"Wynn smiled slightly and nodded.Looking at Melissa's expression earlier, it seemed that she was becoming increasingly displeased with Celeste.…Melissa had actually known about the issues between InnovaTech and YodaVision long before. Matthias had already informed her in advance.When Melissa was talking to Wynn, she didn't really get a phone call—she had recorded their conversation.She walked a little further away, glanced at Trevor and Wynn, and then sent the recording to Matthias.Matthias and Celeste had not finished work yet. After listening to the recording, Matthias smiled and went to Celeste's office to inform her of the situation.After hearing the news, Celeste said, "Now I can be sure that we'll definitely win the lawsuit.""Exactly."Their insistence on suing for contract termination was not only because they really wanted to break the contract with InnovaTech, but also beca

    Wynn had thought she would have to wait a few more days for news.However, that afternoon, Trevor called her and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Yoder will be attending an auction tomorrow. Would you like to go?"Wynn smiled and replied, "Sure."The next evening, not long after arriving at the auction, Trevor took Wynn over to greet Sebastian and Melissa. He introduced Wynn to them.Sebastian and Melissa knew about Trevor's relationship with Celeste and were aware of all the conflicts between Celeste and Wynn. However, when they saw Trevor, they didn't let their feelings about Celeste show.They smiled and shook hands with Trevor, greeting him warmly. When Trevor introduced Wynn, Melissa also smiled and politely shook Wynn's hand, saying, "Hello."The auction was filled with the elites from high society.After some casual conversation, Trevor and Sebastian, along with others, began discussing business matters.At this moment, Wynn saw an opportunity and started chatting with Melissa alone.
