Chapter 311
Martha’s birthday arrived quieldy,
Since Trevor had reminded her in advance, Jordyn had alreally prepared a birthday gift for Martha. As soon as she came downstairs for breakfast, she immediately presented the gift.
Martha’s eyes crinkled with a smile. “Thank you, Jo.”
Trevor also handed over his gift. “This is from both Cel and me. Happy birthday.”
At his words, Martha shot him a glance.
Before she could say anything, the butler entered carrying two gift boxes. “Mrs. Fleming Senior, these birthday gifts were sent by Madam Klein and Mrs. Fleming.”
Martha accepted the gifts and then looked at Trevor. She knew he had mentioned Celeste’s name just to make her happy, but she no longer insisted on meddling in their affairs.
She huffed, “Cel already prepared a separate gift for me. There’s no need for your unnecessary gestures.” With that, she ignored him.
Trevor just chuckled. He remained unfazed and turned to unge Jordyn to finish breakfast quickly so he could drive her to school.
After delivering her gift, Celeste grabbed her car keys and headed to the office. Not long after she arrived, she and Matthias went to InnovaTech for a business matter.
As soon as they arrived, they spotted Wynn.
Upon seeing them, Wynn only greeted Matthias, “Mr. Yoder ”
She was smiling, seemingly in a good mood, with no trace of disappointment over missing Martha’s birthday banquet.
Matthias glanced at her, curling his lips slightly but not responding. He and Celeste then simply went about their
business.
Matthias was quite interested in the fact that Celeste wasn’t attending Martha’s birthday banquet.
That
evening, he returned home and accompanied his parents to the restaurant where the banquet was being held.
They arrived fairly early. At that time, the banquet hall was still a little empty.
Since it was Martha’s grand birthday celebration, the Fleming family took it very seriously. Almost all the Fleming family members, including Jordyn, were already present.
Matthias hadn’t seen Jordyn in two to three years.
When he first met her, he had thought she resembled Trevor. Now, after years of not seeing her, the r.blance was even more striking.
When the Yoder family arrived, the Fleming family greeted them warmly. “Mr. Yoder, Mrs. Yoder, Mr. Matthias.”
After some polite exchanges, Matthias‘ mother, Melissa Thornton, looked at Jordyn
Matthias and Celeste had met after she’d become Zachary’s student.

Melissa had always liked Celeste she found her outstanding and close in age to Matthias and had once hoped they could be a couple.
However, the moment she hinted at this idea, Matthias immediately shut it down, telling her that Celeste already had someone she liked.
Before she could even react, she had already gone and married someone else. So, she knew a bit about Celeste and Trevor’s relationship.
She also knew that Jordyn was Celeste’s daughter.
Seeing Melissa looking at Jordyn, Martha smiled. “This is my great–granddaughter, Jo.”
Melissa smiled and gently ruffled Jordyn’s hair. “So adorable.”
Jordyn obediently greeted her, “Mrs. Yoder.”
Then, as she glanced at Matthias, she couldn’t help but stare at him for a moment.
Martha chuckled. “Jo, why are you staring at Matthias like that?”
Jordyn tilted her head. “Mr. Matthias looks really familiar.
