"It's not necessary. I won't be returning to YodaVision ever again!" Quentin declared as he walked away, not even glancing back.Celeste held talent in high regard. She turned to Matthias, who shook his head, advising her not to rush.Matthias recognized Quentin's talent and was reluctant to let him go. However, he'd sensed that Quentin had feelings for Wynn from their first meeting.Though Quentin's feelings were a personal affair that didn't concern Matthias, he couldn't ignore that Quentin's emotions for Wynn had clouded his judgment. As a result, Quentin unfairly reacted to Celeste's arrival without justification. This behavior was simply unacceptable.Additionally, they collaborated with the government on Cuap's core technology and signed a confidentiality agreement. Thus, Celeste's identity could not be exposed.Quentin's impulsive nature was largely influenced by his high regard for Wynn. Even if Celeste were to showcase her talents in the future, Quentin might remain uncon
After Quentin left YodaVision, he immediately called Wynn."Celeste joined YodaVision?"Quentin was puzzled. "Hmm. Didn't you know this?"He thought Celeste replaced her at YodaVision."No." She thought Matthias didn't hire her as he wanted to vent his anger on Celeste's behalf. She pondered whether Celeste had left Fleming Group since joining YodaVision.Quentin was shocked. "So, what was the personal reason you mentioned earlier?"Wynn refused to elaborate. "Just some personal grudges.""But…""What's wrong?"He'd misunderstood. His resignation wasn't related to Wynn. Quentin then asked, "How good is Celeste? I heard she hasn't passed her doctoral exam yet. She...""Her situation isn't that she hasn't yet passed her doctoral exam. Rather, she only holds an undergraduate degree and has never pursued a master's degree.""What? Really?""Mmm," Wynn replied indifferently. She was taken aback by Celeste's decision to leave Fleming Group. Yet, even more surprising was that r
Then, Jacob asked, "What about the coffee...""Take it away. Just pour me a glass of water.""Noted."…At noon, Matthias attended a social event while Celeste ate alone in the cafeteria. Her colleagues were polite but distant, but Celeste didn't mind.After lunch, she resumed work. At around 5:00 pm, she approached Yandel and asked, "Can you take a look? I'm almost done.""What?" Yandel was taken aback. At first, he stared at the content sent, feeling perplexed. However, as he continued reading, his eyes widened in disbelief."You… You're all done?" This was more than ten days of work for Quentin. He couldn't believe she had figured it all out and completed it in less than a day.Celeste replied, "Yeah."Yandel was left amazed and utterly speechless. He realized that Celeste not only did the work excellently but also offered him new concepts for his remaining tasks that he hadn't considered before.Upon hearing this, one by one, the other colleagues gathered around. After th
When Trevor and Miles arrived at the private room in the restaurant, Wynn and Jordyn were already there.Wynn asked, "What's making you smile so happily?"Miles smiled and said, "Nothing, I just ran into someone quite interesting."After dinner, Trevor and Jordyn went home.Getting out of the car, Jordyn happily ran upstairs, calling out, "Mom, Mom…"Hannah heard the commotion and came out of the kitchen. "Mrs. Fleming hasn't returned.""Huh?" Jordyn was disappointed. "Why has Mom been so busy lately?" Then, she went upstairs, grumbling.Seeing Trevor standing still, Hannah asked, "Mr. Fleming?"Trevor shook his head. "It's nothing."Then, he went upstairs as well.That night, Trevor noticed that Celeste hadn't returned.The next morning, when Jordyn woke up, she thought she would get to eat the breakfast Celeste prepared again.Seeing the breakfast on the table that didn't look like Celeste's cooking, she frowned. "Mom didn't get up to make breakfast?""Mrs. Fleming is no
Thinking of that, Celeste replied, "Got it. I'll be back soon."That night, Celeste made honey garlic spare ribs for Jordyn and also prepared some soup. She stayed over for the next two days.On Friday, Betty called, asking her to come home for dinner. So, Celeste took Jordyn to the Rodriguez family home.However, only Betty was at home. The others were either out socializing or still in school.Betty didn't know that Jordyn had returned to the country. Seeing Celeste bring her along, she was pleasantly surprised.Jordyn was quite close to Betty and quickly won her over, making her very happy.That night, Celeste and Jordyn stayed at the Rodriguez family home.The next morning, Celeste got up early to make pancakes.Watching her skillful movements, Betty couldn't help but sigh, remembering how Celeste had never done housework before she got married.Celeste knew what Betty was thinking and smiled. "Cooking helps me clear my mind. I actually enjoy it."Celeste had gained a lit
Jordyn must have been having too much fun with Wynn because she didn't contact Celeste at all over the weekend.On Monday, Celeste went to work at YodaVision as usual. Right before getting off work, Lottie called and invited her to dinner.During the meal, Celeste went to the restroom and ran into Beck.Without pausing, Celeste acted as if she hadn't seen him and walked straight past him.However, Beck stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at her.Celeste noticed it but ignored him.When she exited the restroom, she saw that Beck was still standing at the same spot where they had crossed paths earlier, as if he had been waiting for her.Seeing her come out, he turned his head and asked, "Here for dinner?"It seemed as if he had been waiting for her on purpose."Yes," she replied coolly. Then, she added indifferently, "Does Mr. Harper think I followed you here again?"Beck hesitated before saying, "That's not what I meant."Celeste didn't know what he meant. Nor d
Ruby immediately smiled and said, "Isn't this Cel? Long time no see. You're getting more and more beautiful.""Mom…" Hearing Ruby compliment Celeste, Linda was displeased.She had always known that Celeste was beautiful, but after not seeing her for a few years, she didn't expect her to be even more stunning.Looking at Celeste's smooth, delicate skin and outstanding temperament, jealousy surged in Linda's heart.However, she quickly consoled herself—so what if Celeste was beautiful? Her future brother-in-law didn't like her anyway. He only loved her sister, Wynn.With that thought, she felt a little better.Harvey looked over and said, "Ruby, what brings you here?""We hadn't seen you in a while, Uncle Harvey, so we came to check on you," Linda interjected.Then, she noticed the open brocade box the store owner had just displayed. So, she deliberately raised her voice and said, "Uncle Harvey, is this the wedding anniversary gift you customized for Aunt Lizzy? It's so beautiful
After walking some distance, Lottie looked at Celeste with concern. "Cel…"Celeste shook her head and said lightly, "I'm fine."From the moment Harvey had divorced her mother, he had stopped being her father. What pained her was how her presence had added to her uncle's burdens.As for Trevor's favoritism. Thinking about how Trevor only cared about Wynn, how ruthless he was toward Matthias and Ivan for Wynn's sake, and how he had never considered her feelings, it felt like a knife was stabbing into her heart.The pain was unbearable."Cel…" Lottie hugged her, feeling her own heart break for her dear friend.Celeste forced a smile but didn't say anything. It was fine. She had already decided to move on. She just needed a little time. She could do it."Want to grab a drink?" Lottie thought Celeste needed to relax.But, Celeste shook her head. "No."Rather than drinking, she preferred going home to work on her data. That was when she could truly calm down, relax, and regai
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.
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
