Before Matthias could say anything, Jordyn looked at him again and said, “Mr. Matthias, I feel like I’ve heard your voice somewhere before too.”
Back during the Ember Festival, Celeste had put the phone on speaker while discussing business with Matthias for hours.
Jordyn was there. So, how could she not find his voice famar?
But Matthias didn’t bring it up. He just smiled and said, “Really?”
Jordyn nodded. “Mlum.”
Matthias replied, “Maybe I just sound familiar.
Hearing this, Trevor rubbed his sharp nose bridge and let out a small laugh.
Matthias heard it and thought, “What’s so funny? Does he really think this is amusing?”
As more guests arrived, the Fleming family had to attend to their other visitors, so Matthias and the others didn’t linger in conversation
There had long been rumors that Trevor was already married with a child. But no one really knew if it was true.
As the banquet hall filled up, people were shocked to see a little girl who looked remarkably like Trevor, holding his hand and calling him “Dad“.
Only then did they realize that Trevor really did have a child
Whether he was actually married–or divorced–remained mystery.
Since the Fleming family didn’t bring it up, it wasn’t their place to ask.
Jorge had already met Jordyn before. But he had never mentioned it to anyone.
So, when his childhood friend, Xavier, saw Jordyn, he was utterly stunned.
“Holy shit! Trevor really did get married? And his kid is already this big? That means if Wynn marries him, she’s going to be a stepmom? Wynn, of all people, becoming someone’s stepmother… That’s just—”
Xavier was about to say that Wynn would be at a disadvantage. But then he remembered the difference in status between the Lockets and the Flemings
He thought about how exceptional Trevor was. Then, he immediately shut his mouth.
If Wynn were marrying some ordinary man with a kid, it might be a loss for her. But given Trevor’s status, even with a previous marriage and a child, the gap between their families meant Wynn would still be ming into wealth.
Besides, Trevor’s ex–wife had given birth to a daughter, not a son. Daughters didn’t have inheritance rights.
As long as Wynn bore him a son, everything would be set in stone.
So, whether Trevor had been married before really didn’t affect Wynn at all.

On the other side of the banquet hall, a guest complimented Melissa. “Matthias is still so young, yet YodaVision is already thriving. Melissa, your son is truly outstanding.”
Hearing the praise, Melissa couldn’t hide her smile, though she remained modest. “You’re too kind. He’s just been lucky.”
This led to another topic–Celeste.
Someone asked, “Matthias isn’t that young anymore, is he? I noticed he and Ms. Hodriguez from his company seem to get along well. Any wedding news on the horizon?”
Of course, Matthias and Celeste weren’t Involved like that. But Melissa didn’t explain.
She simply smiled and said, “Just let the youngsters decide for themselves.”
To outsiders, her words made it sound like the moment Matthias and Celeste decided, she could have the wedding arranged right away.
Meanwhile, Beck and Miles were also at the banquet.
They weren’t far from Melissa’s table.
Hearing Celeste’s name mentioned, they couldn’t help but eavesdrop.
Over the past six months, Celeste and Matthias had indeed been spending a lot of time together. But Miles never believed Celeste would actually marry into the Yoder family
After all, YodaVision was doing incredibly well now.
And Matthias–wealthy, capable, and from an elite family could have any woman he wanted.
Why would he marry Celeste, a divorced woman with a child, an average background, and no particular talent?
Yet now, hearing Melissa’s tone, it sounded as if she actually approved of Celeste becoming her daughter–in–law. Miles turned to Beck in shock. “Is the Yoder family out of their minds?”
