After saying that, Miles added, "Or do they just don't know about Celeste's past?"

A lot of people had assumed Celeste and Matthias were a couple.

Ever since finding out that Celeste was also Zachary's student, Beck had paid attention to her interactions with Matthias. He noticed that there was no romantic involvement between them.

He didn't know if Melissa truly wished for them to be together or if there was another reason behind her words.

But regardless, given Celeste's current achievements, even if she had been married and had a child, she was still worthy of anyone.

He replied, "They should know."

Miles widened his eyes. "Then why would they still—"

He suddenly paused mid-sentence, as if realizing something. Then he blurted out, "So, Celeste really has fallen for Matthias? She doesn't love Trevor anymore?"

Before Beck could respond, Miles quickly pieced things together.

"No wonder she was so calm when Trevor wanted a divorce. She didn't even fight for Jo's custody. I thou

    After Martha's birthday, news that Trevor had been married and already had a six-year-old daughter quickly spread throughout the high society circles of Baumond.Wynn had many admirers.Even though it was known that she was already with Trevor, there were still plenty of men who refused to give up.Upon learning that Trevor had actually been married and had a daughter, Wynn's secret admirers felt heartbroken for her, thinking she deserved better.The morning after Martha's birthday, quite a few of them even went to InnovaTech, trying to persuade Wynn to leave Trevor.It took Albert and others stepping in to help "rescue" Wynn from the situation. Word of this incident quickly spread throughout InnovaTech.Some employees couldn't help but sigh, "We already knew from Valentine's Day how popular Ms. Locket is, but I didn't expect it to be this crazy.""Exactly."Everyone at InnovaTech was aware of the strong relationship between Trevor and Wynn. But most of them had no idea that Tr

    Celeste, Matthias, and Henry, the general manager of InnovaTech, had a private group chat.Today's events were so explosive that Henry couldn't suppress his inner gossip-loving soul and immediately shared all the juicy details with them.Neither Celeste nor Matthias was particularly interested in how many admirers Wynn had or how crazy they were over her.But in the afternoon, Henry messaged them again."Mr. Fleming's daughter came to the company to find Ms. Locket. Before, when Ms. Locket said she got along well with Mr. Fleming's daughter, a lot of us didn't really believe it."But after seeing the little girl today, we realized—Mr. Fleming's daughter truly adores her."Celeste's fingers suddenly paused on the keyboard. It wasn't because she felt upset about Jordyn being close to Wynn.She had just suddenly realized—if the news about Wynn and Jordyn having a good relationship spread, then there was no way to keep it hidden from her uncle and grandmother anymore.She had alway

    Jason paused. "You don't want anything? Are you sure?"Trevor had been extremely generous—he had allocated her an enormous sum of assets, enough for her to live lavishly for the rest of her life.Jason couldn't understand why she would willingly give it up.Celeste said firmly, "I'm sure. But I have one condition."She had never planned to take his money to begin with. Even if she refused everything he had given her, she wouldn't feel any regret.It was just that back when Martha had fallen and been hospitalized, Trevor had wanted to thank her for visiting his grandmother.So, besides giving her two billion dollars, he also transferred three villas in the neighborhood where Betty lived.These three villas, though given to her later, had still been included in the division of marital assets.So, even though the property deeds were now in her name and in her possession, legally speaking, until the divorce was finalized, the villas weren't truly hers.If she walked away with noth

    Trevor then added, "Then, will you talk to Grandma?"Celeste didn't even need to ask to know—there was no way Martha would agree to her walking away with nothing.She asked instead, "If we don't change the divorce agreement, when can we get the paperwork done?""It should be within this year."It was only March now, meaning there was still quite some time left before the end of the year. She figured she could wait a few more months. But still…Trevor asked, "Anything else?"Celeste didn't respond and simply hung up the phone. The moment she ended the call, her phone rang again.It was Beck.He told her that Shanice had caught the flu and wouldn't be able to leave the house for the next couple of days, so their weekend plans would have to be postponed.Hearing this, Celeste said, "That's fine. We'll reschedule once Shanice feels better."She was a little worried about Shanice, so she added, "Let me know when she's feeling better."Beck could hear the concern in her voice. He

    "Of course we'll continue the interview!"After saying that, the man took the initiative to extend his hand toward Celeste. "Hello, I'm Kieran Gibson. Nice to meet you."Celeste shook his hand. "I know." She already had his resume in hand.Looking at him, she asked, "So, are you interviewing me, or am I interviewing you?"Kieran grinned. "Either works."His resume indicated that his strengths lay in algorithms. Celeste assessed his skills in data cleaning, feature engineering, and parameter tuning. She also evaluated his ability to come up with innovative solutions when faced with new problems.By the time they finished talking, quite a bit of time had passed.Celeste could confidently say that Kieran was highly skilled—especially considering that he had just switched fields.In fact, he had only been in the AI field for a little over a year. It was rare for someone to develop such deep expertise in such a short time.If he maintained this momentum, his future would be limitle

    Celeste didn't give any response. Matthias glanced at the resume again and asked, "It looks well-written. How's his actual ability?""Pretty good. He's only been studying for less than two years, but his skills already surpass most PhD students from top universities.""Oh? That definitely makes him a genius." Matthias mused, then asked, "You want to keep him?""I'm considering it, but...""Worried he won't stick around?""Yeah."Even though she could tell that Kieran was genuinely interested in Cuap and Infinite-CM, there were still other unstable factors about him."We can put him on probation first. If he's not a good fit, we can let him go." Matthias suggested."Alright."…Meanwhile, Kieran instantly became the center of attention the moment he stepped into the arcade. He was a handsome, broad-shouldered, long-legged young man, exuding an elite aura.Several young women wanted to approach him, but his slightly pursed lips and the distant, unapproachable vibe he exude

    That morning, Celeste hadn't been working for long when she received an official acceptance notice from an AI journal.A little while later, Matthias came by to discuss work with her. He wasn't surprised when he learned that her paper had been accepted.After all, with Zachary's endorsement as an authority in the field, if even he believed the paper was solid, there was no doubt it would pass the review stage.After finishing their discussion, Celeste checked the time and asked, "Want to grab lunch together?"Matthias rubbed his temples, looking a little weary. "I've got plans."Celeste looked up. "What's up?"Matthias smirked. "A blind date. Arranged by my grandpa."Hearing this, Celeste chuckled. "You're already 28 and only now going on your first blind date. That's pretty good."Matthias was speechless.Honestly, his family had never been too pushy about his marriage.But this time, the young woman was the granddaughter of his grandfather's close friend. Since it was hard

    Trevor sent another message. "I'm at a business luncheon. You guys carry on."After that, he didn't appear in the chat again.After getting into his car, Beck also decided he wasn't going to pay any more attention to this matter. He simply replied, "Busy too. You guys chat."Then, he exited the app.Seeing that both Trevor and Beck had lost interest in the topic, Wynn also sent a message. "I'm going for lunch. Talk later."Miles couldn't do anything.…After lunch, Celeste went to the R&D department for a meeting.Kieran was there as well.As she precisely pointed out issues and quickly proposed solutions, he sat in silence, watching her.When the meeting ended, Celeste was about to leave when she noticed Kieran looking at her. She paused and asked, as a formality, "It's your first day at the company. Are you adjusting well?"Kieran replied, "I'm adapting. Thanks for asking."Celeste nodded and, without saying anything more, left the meeting room with her laptop.Over the

    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.

    Caleb was still thinking about it when Jorge asked him again, "Caleb, besides your father and my old man, do you know anyone else who has Zachary's contact info?"Caleb replied, "No one else."Then, as if something occurred to him, he added, "But didn't you say Ms. Locket had met Zachary before? I imagine she should have his contact. "If talking to Mr. Newman could resolve things, wouldn't she have already reached out to him herself?"Jorge said, "I thought about that too. But since she's directly involved, unless absolutely necessary, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to contact Mr. Newman just to complain about Matthias, right?"He was actually being pretty considerate. Seems like he liked Wynn more than he realized.Jorge said, "Forget it, I'll try asking some other people.""Alright."The fact that Celeste was also one of Zachary's students hadn't been made public meant that it was to remain confidential. Since that was the case, it wasn't his place to share it with Jorge

    Theodore refused to help, so Jorge immediately decided to contact Zachary himself.However, he didn't have Zachary's contact information.He messaged Theodore asking for Zachary's number, and Theodore simply replied with a single word. "Nope."Before he could even react, Theodore sent another message. "I've already spoken to Harold too. Don't waste your time."Seeing that, Jorge was genuinely a little angry.But when he tried calling Theodore again, the call went unanswered.Since Theodore and Harold were both at a dead end, he thought of Caleb.He remembered Caleb had mentioned before that he had some work-related interactions with Zachary. They'd even had a meal together.With that in mind, Jorge reached out to Caleb.Caleb didn't return his call until the evening. After hearing that Jorge was looking for Zachary's contact info, he said, "I don't have Mr. Newman's number.""You don't? Didn't you have dinner with him and my old man before? You guys didn't exchange contacts?"

    Before Jorge could finish his sentence, Theodore cut him off. "You're trying to say that he's siding with Celeste again and bullying Ms. Locket, aren't you?"Jorge was surprised that Theodore hit the nail on the head. "Old man, how'd you know? Don't tell me you already know what happened?"Theodore replied, "I don't. I guessed."Back when Celeste and Matthias agreed to work with his foolish son for his sake, it was clear they wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for him in the workplace.His son also wasn't the kind to stir up trouble at work for no reason. So, even if they couldn't become friends, their professional relationship should have stayed smooth.If Jorge didn't clash with Matthias or Celeste personally, then the conflict likely involved someone he cared about—probably Wynn.Earlier that year, when he'd met with Kael, Celeste, and the others for dinner, they'd happened to run into Wynn at the restaurant entrance.At the time, seeing how attentive his son was to

    Matthias crossed his legs. "Become what exactly? Blinded by lust? Or unable to tell right from wrong?"Both.Of course, Jorge didn't say that out loud.Matthias saw right through him and smiled. "But why do I feel like the one who's blinded and can't tell right from wrong isn't me, but someone else?"Before Jorge could respond, Matthias added, "Also, the student my mentor values most isn't me. It's someone else entirely. Mr. Robinson, you're giving me far too much credit."Jorge didn't expect that, even after bringing up Zachary, Matthias still showed no sign of remorse.But Matthias wasn't about to indulge him. He said directly, "If you can't bear to watch and want to seek justice on behalf of Ms. Locket, then you're free to terminate our contract."Of course, the condition is that you'll have to compensate YodaVision for the corresponding losses."Jorge thought he had approached Matthias politely and reasonably.But Matthias had been hostile from the beginning, and now, in a

    Last week, Matthias' lawyer went to InnovaTech to negotiate the contract termination, but the talks fell through. That same day, they filed a lawsuit with the court.When Celeste had that confrontation at InnovaTech with Wynn and the others, Matthias was away on a business trip.Maybe because she couldn't meet Matthias, Wynn hadn't given up on the matter yet.On Monday, when Celeste arrived at work, she saw Wynn again. As before, when the two women saw each other, neither acknowledged the other.When Celeste got to the office, she found that Matthias was already there."You're here early."Matthias shrugged. "I came in over half an hour early just in case someone tried to intercept me."Celeste smiled at that.…Jorge happened to be in YodaVision that day to discuss something with Matthias. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he spotted Wynn.He had already heard about what happened between YodaVision and InnovaTech last week. So the moment he saw her, he immediately u
