Chapter 287
Beck had a business meetup that night. So, he intended to leve as son as he was done talking about work with
Celeste.
She noticed that he was staring at her, and she raised they out #2
Valentine’s Day was tomorrow, but he didn’t say anythigot it. Trusteart, he shook his head and responded, It’s nothing
Celeste was completely focused on work now. She had all by forgotten about Valentine’s Day
It wasn’t until her company staff told her about it the next day that she suddenly realized what day it was
She was about to return to her office when she heard a voice at the entranc
“Excuse me, but which one of you is Ms. Rodriguez? Soincone bought you some flowers. Please come over and take it.”
Celeste turned around when she heard it. She found herself looking at a delivery guy holding a big bouquet of roses and standing outside. His words and the roses captivated the attention of everyone around him.
The public might’ve been spreading suggestive rumors about her and Matthias, but the fact was that a lot of company staff were aware that she was married.
With that said, Celeste very rarely talked about her private life. So, they weren’t too sure about what was going on with her marriage.
One of her colleagues saw someone giving her flowers on Valentine’s Day and said in a jealous tone, “What a big bouquet of roses. I’m going to wager that your husband sent it to you. You’ve got yourself a keeper.”
“Exactly. I’m wracked with jealousy.”
There was no way Trevor would have sent her flowers. Celeste thought to herself, but she didn’t say it out loud. She checked the card that came with the flowers and confirmed that it was her phone number, meaning it was meant for her.
The delivery guy learned that she was Celeste, and he handed the bouquet to her. “Please sign here.”
It wouldn’t be appropriate to make things difficult for the delivery guy. So, she had no choice but to sign and accept it.
Carrying the bouquet to the office with her, she flipped the delicate card and glanced at it. The flower was sent anonymously, and the person merely wrote “Happy Valentine’s Day” on it.
Matthis opened the door and walked in. When he saw the bouquet of roses on the coffee table, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “Who sent that to you?”
Celeste shook her head and said, “No idea, but the handwriting looks a little familiar.”
He chuckled. “It looks like someone is secretly in love with you. Do you know who it could have been?”
She shook her head and said, “Not a clue.”
Matthias rubbed his chin. He and Celeste had been “inseparable” for a long time, but he didn’t notice anyone having a crush on her.
At the thought of it, he pursed his lips. Although it was basically impossible, he asked, “It couldn’t have been Trevor, could it?”

Celeste responded blandly, “It’s not him.”
She and Trevor had been married for a long time, and he had never spent a single Valentine’s Day with her. Why would he send her roses when they were already on the cusp of a divorce?
More to the point, she could recognize his handwriting.
“Fine, then,” Matthias responded. Then, he continued, “In any case, the sender hand–wrote his wishes on the card. That means he’s quite considerate of you. Furthermore, he sent you the most expensive kind of roses.”
Perhaps Matthias was right about it, but Celeste didn’t feel that intrigued about it. She had no time for something like this right now. It didn’t matter much to her who the sender was. If he didn’t leave his contact number and name, she couldn’t be bothered to find out about it.
“Let’s just focus on our work for now.”
Celeste needed to go to InnovaTech to get something done today. It was something that had been arranged a couple of days ago.
She took some time to compile the documents. Then, she drove to InnovaTech with her colleagues when it was about time.
