Chapter 178
“Mr. Fleming is here?” Jorge asked.
“Mm.” At the mention of Trevor, Wynn’s tone softened. “My injury hasn’t fully healed yet, and Trevor was worried, so he came to pick me up.”
As she spoke, she didn’t spare Celeste a single glance. Then she added, “Mr. Robinson, we’ll be leaving now. See you next time.‘
Jorge had originally intended to question Celeste and stand op for Wynn.
But seeing that Wynn didn’t even bother to look at Celeste, he realized that she completely disdained her–so much so that she wouldn’t even waste energy pretending to be polite.
Watching Wynn’s proud and direct demeanor, Jorge found her even more charismatic and intriguing.
At that moment, he felt there was no point in wasting words on Celeste. She wasn’t worth it. With that thought, his dislike for Celeste grew even stronger.
He said to Wynn, “I’m leaving too. Let’s go together.”
Wynn nodded, and she and Harvey left without looking back
Wynn didn’t spare Celeste a glance, but before leaving, Jorge turned and gave her a cold, hard stare.
Celeste didn’t even need to guess what that look meant. Jorge wasn’t the first man to dislike her simply because of Wynn
Thinking of this, she coldly returned the look and then indifferently turned away, striding toward the exit as if they were nothing but air.
Jorge was taken aback.
She wasn’t the least bit ashamed of being called out–on the contrary, she was acting righteously arrogant about
in
He let out a mocking laugh. Unbelievable.
The world really was full of all kinds of people.
Seeing Celeste walking out alongside them without hesitation, Harvey was both surprised and displeased, furrowing his brows.
Wynn’s steps faltered slightly but quickly resumed, as if she hadn’t noticed Celeste at all.
In the parking lot, Trevor had already stepped out of his car and was leaning against the door, waiting for Wynn.
Noticing Celeste walking out with them, he hesitated for a moment but quickly regained his composure.
Celeste saw Trevor too. But without a single glance at anyone else, she walked straight to her car.
After adjusting the navigation, she drove off.
As the car moved forward, she caught a glimpse of Trevor thoughtfully opening the car door for Wynn with his usual gentle care.
There was a banquet on Saturday evening, and Matthias returned on Friday afternoon.

THE BLAMUSI
When he heard about Jorge’s behavior, he scoffed coldly. “If that’s the case, there’s no need for us to collaborate with him. There’s no point in dealing with someone so annoying.”
Celeste agreed
Jorge wasn’t the only good business partner available. She didn’t need to lower herself for him.
On Saturday afternoon, while Celeste was preparing her evening gown, her phone rang
It was Jordyn.
She had been ignoring her calls, thinking that might make Jordyn stop calling as frequently. But to her surprise, Jordyn still called two to three times a week.
Celeste didn’t answer this time either.
However, unlike before, Jordyn no longer felt as disappointed.
She had been heartbroken at first when her mother repeatedly ignored her calls. But her dad had told her that if she wanted to call, she should–someday, her mom would pick up.
So now, whenever she wanted to talk to Celeste, even knowing she might not answer, she still called her right
away.
Afterward, she casually put down her phone and looked at Trevor, who was now dressed in a formal suit.
Lying on the master bed, she kicked her legs back and forth. “Dad, are you heading out so soon to pick up Wynn?”
Trevor hummed a response.
“Then you guys have to come back early tomorrow and take me out.”
“Okay.”
Trevor left about ten minutes after he was fully dressed.
By 8:00 pm, Trevor and Wynn arrived at the banquet entrance together.
Wynn was once again dressed in an expensive outfit, looking stunning and impossible to ignore.
As soon as they stepped into the hall, they immediately became the center of attention.
Beck and Miles had already arrived. Seeing them enter, they walked over.
Jorge, Caleb, and Xavier had just arrived as well. Noticing the commotion, they turned to look.
When Jorge saw Wynn, a flicker of admiration flashed in his eyes again.
Caleb glanced at Trevor and Wynn and asked Xavier, “That’s Wynn Locket?”
Xavier nodded. “Yeah. Beautiful and captivating, isn’t she? But, no matter how beautiful or captivating, she was someone else’s girlfriend.
Caleb only looked twice before withdrawing his gaze without commenting.
Trevor’s presence alone was enough to command respect. As soon as he arrived, many people immediately went over to greet him.
Before long, a crowd had gathered around him and Wynn.
Chapter 176
At that moment, Matthias and Celeste finally arrived.
YodaVision was currently the most talked–about company in the industry at the moment. So, Matthias‘ presence at the banquet was naturally expected and attracted eager gazes from around.
At the same time, many were also captivated by Celeste’s appearance.
Tonight, Celeste wore an off–white, handcrafted embroidered evening gown that perfectly accentuated her graceful figure while exuding a scholarly, serene beauty,
Someone in the crowd murmured, “Gotta say, both Mr. Fleming and Mr. Yoder are really lucky men.”
“Exactly.”
Although Wynn and Celeste had different styles, both of them were top–tier beauties.
The moment Matthias and Celeste stepped into the hall, Beck, Miles, Caleb, and Jorge all immediately took notice.
As YodaVision was the most talked–about company lately, It was no surprise the banquet host had invited Matthias.
But Beck wasn’t sure if Celeste would come with him. Now, seeing her appear with her arm on Matthias, his gaze deepened.
Miles had suspected she might attend but hadn’t expected her to look this breathtaking. Even if he didn’t like her, he had to admit–Celeste’s unique, serene charm was undeniable.
