Celeste did not answer but patted Sylvia on the head. “Sylvia, please don’t tell Jo that I sent you here, alright?”
Sylvia nodded. “Okay.”
Previously, Jordyn got angry with her for hugging Celeste. She felt a little scared of Jordyn and hesitated to speak to her. Moreover, Jordyn might still be upset, as she would glare at her whenever they crossed paths.
Trevor, Wynn, and Jordyn appeared to be a happy family. Celeste observed them and thought they looked great. together before looking away.
After a while, after Trevor and Wynn departed, Celeste stepped out of the car alongside Sylvia.
Jordyn’s teacher recognized Celeste as Jordyn’s mother. Just moments ago, she had seen Jordyn being dropped off at school by her father and another woman, leading her to believe that Celeste was simply occupied.
But now, witnessing Celeste holding Sylvia’s hand, her thoughts spiraled into confusion. “Ms. Rodriguez, you and Sylvia…”
“Mrs. Golden had an urgent matter to attend to, so she asked me to bring Sylvia over.”
The teacher let out a relieved sigh and then carefully replied, “Oh, I see. Jordyn has just arrived as well, but…”
“I know.” Celeste smiled.
Although the teacher felt somewhat perplexed, she chose not to press further as Celeste seemed to be aware of the situation and appeared indifferent to it.
After leaving kindergarten and getting into the car, Matthias called her. “What time are you coming?”
“I’ll be there in ten minutes.”
“Alright.”
Upon Celeste’s arrival at YodaVision, Matthias stood eagerly at the entrance, waiting for her. As soon as he spotted her, he embraced her warmly. “Welcome back!”
Celeste smiled and hugged him.
Meanwhile, in the corridor of the company building, Quentin Yallop leaned against the window while making a phone call. He was taken aback by the chaos unfolding at the entrance and Celeste’s appearance.
However, he quickly diverted his gaze as his call to Wynn connected. With a smile, he took the initiative. “Wynn, good morning! When are you arriving at the office?”
Quentin’s expression shifted dramatically after an exchange with Wynn. When he eventually returned to the office, his colleagues immediately sensed his displeasure.“Quentin, is everything okay? You seem off this morning. Are you feeling unwell?”
Quentin shook his head silently.
One by one, colleagues gradually reached the office, and then someone whispered, “I just saw Mr. Yoder arriving with an attractive woman.”
“Is she truly beautiful? Stop lying.”
“She is. She’s prettier than those celebrities. She’s super stunning!”
Quentin’s mind instantly flashed to the beauty who had just hugged Matthías at the company’s entrance.

At this moment, someone remarked, “I just heard that this lovely woman is our new colleague who started with us today.”
Quentin was taken aback by this revelation. Wynn was his younger classmate from the same school. She had shown interest in Cuap and expressed a desire to work at YodaVision. Without hesitation, he promptly recommended her to Matthias.
When they first met, Matthias was pleased with Wynn. Today was her first day of work. Yet, when he called to check her arrival time, she informed him that Matthias no longer wanted to hire her for personal reasons.
As Quentin pondered the reasons behind this, Matthias entered the office with Celeste.
