Henry’s face was full of smiles as he immediately greeted Wynn. “Ms. Locket.”
Wynn smiled and nodded before turning to both him and Matthias. “Trevor is treating my team to a meal. Would Mr. Yoder and Mr. Quinn like to join us?”
She deliberately ignored Celeste.
Henry naturally wanted to agree, but he glanced at Matthias and Celeste first.
Matthias immediately declined, “Ms. Locket, we appreciate the invitation, but we already have plans.”
Wynn frowned. “Mr. Yoder…” She didn’t expect that despite her repeated efforts, Matthias still showed no sign of wavering.
She glanced at Celeste, who was sitting nearby, sipping water.
Celeste noticed her gaze and coldly returned it.
Then, Wynn looked away.
Aside from being pretty, what did Celeste have that made Matthias so determined to stand by her? Was she as outstanding or as dazzling as herself?
Since Matthias refused, Wynn simply smiled, maintaining her polite demeanor. “Alright, next time then.” With that, she didn’t spare Celeste or Henry another glance before turning and leaving
Henry felt like he had just been completely ignored. “Ms. Locket can be quite arrogant sometimes.”
Sure, Wynn had the right to be proud. But even Trevor, the real boss of InnovaTech, was always polite and courteous whenever he met with employees.
Matthias shrugged. “I noticed.”
Wynn carried herself like she already owned InnovaTech. But even without Trevor backing her up, she was still quite full of herself, probably because she believed in her own value.
Not long after, Trevor, presumably after hearing from Wyn that Matthias had declined, came over.
He shook hands with Matthias in a courteous manner and said, “We’ll be heading out now. Mr. Yoder, I hope you’ll join us next time.”
Matthias hesitated for a moment. “…Of course.”
Trevor smiled, glanced at Celeste briefly, then turned and left with Wynn and her team, who were waiting at the
entrance.
After lunch, Celeste and Matthias returned to InnovaTech.
Wynn and her team didn’t come back until some time later
At around 6:00 pm, Celeste and Matthias finished their work and were ready to leave. There was still plenty to handle, but they had time over the next few days to take care of it. There was no rush.
Wynn and her team, however, seemed to still be busy, showing no signs of wrapping up.
Henry commented, “I heard they’re planning to work overtine tonight.”

Matthias replied, “Oh.”
Celeste said, “Let’s go.”
Matthias chuckled. “Let me treat you to dinner.”
Celeste shook her head. “It’s okay, I have other plans.”
Martha had told her to return to the Fleming Manor for dinner.
When she arrived, Trevor and Jordyn were already home.
she didn’t expect Trevor to be back. She had thought he would stay at the company with Wynn.
When Trevor saw her come in, he gave her a brief glance before continuing his work on his laptop.
During dinner, Trevor sat down beside Celeste. Noticing that he was busy on his phone, she suddenly said, “Do you have time later? I have something to discuss with you.”
