The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 344
Celeste made some time in the afternoon and filled Matthias in about what had happened. "You'll have to shift the focus of the conflict for this."He paused briefly before he caught on to what she was hinting at. Grinning, he said, "Okay. I know what I have to do."Shortly after, Matthias received a call from Wynn. He answered it casually and heard her voice over the phone. "Mr. Yoder, I wonder if you're aware of the morning incident."He chuckled and said, "Ms. Locket, are you referring to the moment when your family ignored the truth and accused my staff of being incompetent? If I got it right, they also slandered my staff for not being committed to fulfilling the terms of our agreement."Wynn responded, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yoder. Linda is in the wrong this time. I will…"Matthias interrupted her and said, "Furthermore, it was made known to me that my staff told you about what happened and defended my company, but you accused her of blowing the incident out of proportion. Did some

When Wynn was on the phone with Matthias, she was sitting in a luxurious private room in a restaurant with Lilian, Erin, and the others, waiting for their dishes to be served.Lilian noticed the awful look on Wynn's face after the phone call ended. She asked, "What's the matter? What did Matthias say to you?"Wynn tightened her grip on her phone and responded, "Matthias is terminating the collaboration with us and demanding we compensate YodaVision Co. for damage of reputation.""What?" Lilian gasped, and so did Erin, Linda, and the others. Linda said angrily, "We have apologized properly for this incident. Didn't the bitch say that the whole thing will blow over once you get in touch with Matthias and tell him how sorry we are? "Why is he terminating the contract and demanding some kind of compensation?"Lilian wore an icy expression, but she caught on fast and chimed in, "Celeste did it on purpose."Linda didn't get it, though. "Huh?"Wynn said, "Celeste wanted InnovaTech a

Wynn had the same idea, but the thing was that they started the whole mess to begin with. She had maintained a gentle demeanor around Trevor to this point. If he learned about this incident, she wasn't sure if he would think that she and her family had been picking on Celeste. That, in turn, would affect her image in his heart.Needless to say, Lilian understood Wynn's concerns. She knew better than anyone how important it was to maintain one's image. After all, that was the key to making a man love a woman forever. Erin also understood it. Trevor loved Wynn deeply because she was very special to him. If they handled it carefully, it might not have a lasting effect on Wynn. However, it was still not a good move for her. She glanced at Linda and said nonchalantly, "Linda, you're a grown-up. You really have to mind what you do and say in the future."If they failed to handle this incident with finesse, it might prove to be a fatal blow to their families. "But, I…" Linda trailed

On the same afternoon, Celeste received a phone call from Trevor not long after she arrived at YodaVision Co. InnovaTech would suffer a huge loss if they were to terminate the collaboration.When she saw his name on her phone screen, she knew why he had called. So, she didn't answer. He gave her two more calls, but she didn't answer any of them. Then, he dialed Matthias' number instead. Needless to say, Matthias also knew why Trevor was calling him, but he answered it. He went straight to the point and said, "Is this about InnovaTech?"Trevor responded, "Yeah. Mr. Yoder, name your terms.""I'm sorry, Mr. Fleming. Ms. Locket crossed a line, and I'm not going to waver this time." Then, Matthias added coldly, "Is there anything else you want to talk about?"Trevor asked, "Is there no way we can turn this around?""No," Matthias said. "My lawyer and I will follow up with this matter closely. I don't want you to pester my company staff. Otherwise, it just tells me that you're the s

"He called me several minutes ago." Celeste said.Matthias snickered. "I knew it. You were the first person he called."Both of them had predicted that Wynn would seek Trevor's help and that he might want to screw with the Rodriguez family for her sake.Meanwhile, Trevor also predicted that they might threaten him to back off with the latest collaboration between Fleming Tech and YodaVision Co. That was why he got in touch with Celeste first. He wanted to see if he could work things out with her. However, she didn't give him a chance to do it. So, he contacted Matthias instead. Matthias dealt with Trevor because he was the official person in charge of YodaVision Co. It was more appropriate for him to have the conversation with the latter. This also led Matthias to see that Trevor intended to set Celeste up for Wynn's sake because Trevor mistakenly thought that she was meek and gullible. The notion filled his heart with rage. At the same time, he was concerned about Celeste a

Linda was completely dumbfounded. She hadn't expected that even Trevor couldn't resolve the incident.She said frantically, "I still don't get it. T-This was obviously a trivial matter. Can Celeste and Matthias take us to court and terminate the collaboration just because they couldn't let go of a jibe? S-Surely, something like that is not feasible."Wynn responded, "I got my lawyer to go through and confirm the clauses in the collaboration agreement between InnovaTech and YodaVision Co. The stipulations clearly stated that either party has the right to terminate the collaboration if the other party damages its reputation.""B-But, it doesn't matter if this incident damages their reputation. It's not going to have a big impact on them."Wynn said, "It would barely scratch their reputation. Ordinarily, if something like this happens, we just have to eliminate the impact this matter brought to YodaVision Co., apologize, and give them some gifts as compensation. That would've been eno

It turned out that Matthias was away on business.Wynn was lost in thought when Kieran asked nonchalantly, "Anything else?"She shook her head and asked, "It's been a while since you started working at YodaVision Co. Is everything going well for you?""It's been good," he responded. "If that's all, I'll be heading up then."Then, Kieran turned and left. Wynn frowned slightly as she watched his retreating figure. There was no hesitation in his footsteps. Kieran was upset at her for revealing his whereabouts to the Gibsons. So, he hadn't answered any of her recent phone calls. Then, she ran into him today. When he finally responded to her, she thought he was done being upset at her. However, he was still much colder to her than before. Wynn grinned. He probably just needed more time to calm down. A phone call interrupted her thoughts. It was a number she didn't recognize, and the person said that he was an attorney representing YodaVision Co. He was acting on Matthias' orde

Beck came back to his senses, looked at Celeste with a smile, and shook his head. "It's nothing."After finishing the business discussion with Beck that afternoon, Matthias called Celeste.Matthias said, "I just got word from the lawyer—Wynn still refuses to terminate the contract. She's willing to pay a substantial compensation fee for damage to our reputation, but I didn't agree. "Since negotiations failed, I've asked the lawyer to proceed with legal action."Celeste replied, "Alright, got it."After that, Matthias added, "Trevor is coming to the company tomorrow to discuss some matters. Joseph can handle the first part of the meeting, but there's one document that needs your confirmation, so—"In other words, she would have to meet with Trevor tomorrow.Celeste understood what he meant and said, "Alright, understood."…The next day, Trevor and Jacob arrived at YodaVision in the afternoon.As Matthias had said, Joseph was the one who received them initially.

"Isn't that so?"Jorge, Miles, and the others were also present.They didn't know about the grudges between Celeste and the Lockets and Shaws, so when they heard Erin say the guests had mistaken someone for her granddaughter, they didn't react much.Neither Harvey nor Lennox said a word in defense of Celeste.Linda watched it all with a deep sense of satisfaction.Janet looked like she wanted to say something, but with so many people around, she didn't dare. She just lowered her head in silence.Just then, Betty, along with Jamie and Hector, walked out of the elevator."Celeste?"As soon as they stepped out and saw the crowd, Jamie and Hector hadn't even had time to react before they spotted Celeste, who was about to leave.Hearing Hector's voice, Celeste turned her head and saw her grandmother and younger siblings.Soon, Betty and the others also saw Trevor.But at the same time, Betty also spotted Harvey, Lilian, and the rest of the Locket family.Celeste pressed her lips

A few days after attending the International Artificial Intelligence Conference, Celeste went to a hotel one evening after work to attend Adeline's nephew's wedding banquet.She entered the elevator and just as the doors were about to close, she suddenly heard someone say, "Hold the door."At the same time, a hand reached in to stop the elevator from closing.When she saw who it was, Celeste's eyes flickered slightly.Calvin was also surprised to see her in the elevator.Though they had only met a few times and their last meeting was two or three months ago, he still remembered her. He gave her a polite nod.At that moment, Erin appeared at the elevator entrance as well.She looked slightly surprised when she saw Celeste. But she quickly averted her eyes, entering the elevator as if she didn't recognize her.Calvin was about to press the button for their floor, but noticed that the 18th floor had been selected.Since Celeste was technically an acquaintance, he smiled and turne

What Cayden wanted was really just an attempt to learn the core technology behind Infinite-CM.Matthias shook hands with him and responded smoothly. "Professor Sweeney, you flatter me. I've read your two papers on recurrent neural networks and attention mechanisms more than ten times—they've been a huge source of inspiration for me. "It's truly an honor to speak with you."Cayden was naturally eager to talk to Matthias longer. But the conference opening ceremony was about to begin.So, before they could continue the conversation, the staff came over to guide them to their seats.After the event's organizers gave their opening speeches, Cayden, Matthias, and other high-profile guests began giving keynote presentations.Everyone in attendance was eager to build connections with Cayden and Matthias.Once the first round of talks concluded, both of them were immediately surrounded by many parties, including corporate delegations.Celeste, Beck, Kieran, and Jorge didn't actually

Cayden said, "This is my PhD student, Wynn Locket."Besides Wynn, Cayden had brought along four or five other students. Among them, Wynn was the only one from Ceravelle.Once people realized that Wynn was Cayden's student, many at the venue couldn't help but feel envious."Oh my god, she's actually Professor Sweeney's PhD student? That's amazing!""Plus, she's also beautiful. It's like the universe gave her everything. So unfair!""Wait, there's more—she's also Trevor Fleming's girlfriend.""No way—no, I can't take this anymore. Comparing people really will make you depressed!"At that moment, Wynn became not just one of the central figures of the event, but also the person of envy and jealousy for many young people in attendance.As word spread that Wynn was Cayden's student and Trevor's girlfriend, someone who had just greeted Cayden turned to Trevor and joked, "Mr. Fleming, seems like you've got it all, huh?"Trevor just smiled and was about to respond, when Cayden, having

Two days later, Matthias traveled to Santerra to attend the International Artificial Intelligence Conference.Similar to last year's tech expo, this event was a prime opportunity for industry professionals to learn about the latest AI developments and exchange technical insights.Accompanying him were Celeste, Kieran, and a few other newly hired engineers at YodaVision.The reason for bringing newcomers like Kieran was that they hadn't yet been exposed to the company's proprietary information, so there was no risk of any sensitive information being leaked.By the time they arrived in Santerra and entered the conference venue, a sizable crowd had already gathered. It was said that several prominent international AI experts would also be attending the event.At last year's tech expo, Matthias had already drawn significant attention solely by virtue of being Zachary's student.Now, with YodaVision's rising influence, his appearance at this event caused an even greater stir.As soon

Kieran never managed to find a chance to go rafting with Celeste. However, during dinner, he once again "ran into" Celeste and her family.Ivan and Adeline warmly invited him and his friend to eat with them.After learning that he was from the Gibson family, Ivan curiously asked, "What made you suddenly decide to come back and develop your career here?"Thinking of the original reason he returned, Kieran paused slightly in his movements before replying, "I've always been very interested in YodaVision's programming language Cuap and their latest project, Infinite-CM, so I came back to join the company and learn."Ivan, Adeline, and Betty were all aware of Celeste's involvement with YodaVision.Upon hearing this, they all smiled subtly and glanced at Celeste. Meanwhile, Celeste just quietly lowered her head and continued eating.Kieran, however, didn't think too much of it.Celeste was indeed very capable professionally.But from what he had gathered, she had only joined YodaVisi

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
