Chapter 362
After Sebastian and Melissa left, Trevor asked, “Did you finish talking to Mrs. Yoder?”
Wynn smiled slightly and nodded.
Looking at Melissa’s expression earlier, it seemed that she was becoming increasingly displeased with Celeste.
な
Melissa had actually known about the issues between InnovaTech and YodaVision long before. Matthias had already informed her in advance.
When Melissa was talking to Wynn, she didn’t really get a phone call–she had recorded their conversation.
She walked a little further away, glanced at Trevor and Wynn, and then sent the recording to Matthias.
Matthias and Celeste had not finished work yet. After listening to the recording, Matthias smiled and went to Celeste’s office to inform her of the situation.
After hearing the news, Celeste said, “Now I can be sure that we’ll definitely win the lawsuit.”
“Exactly.”
Their insistence on suing for contract termination was not only because they really wanted to break the contract with InnovaTech, but also because they wanted to pressure Wynn.
They wanted to force her to try every way she could to prevent them from terminating the contract.
As long as Wynn tried to contact the Rodriguez or the Yoder family in an attempt to stop the termination of the contract, they would certainly be able to trap her into saying something or create further conflicts.
In any case, the more Wynn tried to reach out to them to negotiate the contract termination, the more opportunities they would have to manipulate her and collect evidence to fight the lawsuit.
So, the more Wynn did, the more mistakes she would make.
If she had simply stuck to expressing her apologies or showing her willingness to cooperate, even after the trial, they might not have succeeded in terminating the contract.
And even if they did succeed, the compensation Wynn would have to pay wouldn’t be that high.
But now, things were different.
The prior conflicts between them had been Wynn’s fault, and now she was claiming that their insistence on terminating the contract was all because of Celeste’s personal grudges against her.
It was important to note that Celeste was not only a core staff member of YodaVision but also the key person in charge of the cooperation with InnovaTech.
Wynn first showed disrespect toward that fact and then, to avoid termination, indiscriminately slandered the staff of their collaborative project.
This provided strong evidence to justify their inability to continue working together.
Moreover, Wynn claimed that the reason Celeste wanted to terminate the contract was that she and Celeste had a personal grudge.
However, in court, if the judge asked about their personal grudges, wasn’t Wynn worried that Celeste would expose everything about their conflict?

If it came to that, Wynn would likely be more worried about her personal issues with Celeste being made public rather than the contract dispute between InnovaTech and YodaVision.
To avoid answering the question, Wynn might even end up agreeing to terminate the contract and pay the sky- high termination fee.
Thinking about this, Matthias‘ smile grew brighter.
As soon as Matthias left Celeste’s office, Celeste’s phone rang. It was a call from Jordyn.
In fact, Jordyn had already called her that morning, but she didn’t answer.
Tomorrow was the day Jordyn would be participating in the fencing competition. Jordyn’s call was probably to confirm if she could accompany her to the competition..
But then again, maybe Jordyn had changed her mind and didn’t want her to go, but would rather have Trevor and Wynn go with her.
After all, this kind of thing had happened before.
With that thought in mind, Celeste still didn’t pick up Jordyn’s call. She put her phone aside, planning to finish handling her data before heading home for the day. 2
Jordyn had called several times. Seeing that Celeste didn’t answer, she felt disappointed and upset.
That evening, when Trevor returned home, he saw Jordyn curled up on the sofa, holding a small toy and looking dejected.
Trevor immediately guessed the problem. “Your mom didn’t answer the phone or didn’t have time to go with you?
Jordyn pouted and grumpily tugged at the toy’s fuzzy ears. She didn’t answer the phone.”
She became silent for a moment.
Then, seeing Trevor loosen his tie while watching her, as if waiting for her to make a decision, Jordyn hesitated before speaking, “Since Mom doesn’t have time, could you and Wynn go with me to the competition tomorrow?”
Trevor smiled. “Sure.”
“I’ll let Wynn know.”
“Okay.”
“Good night, Dad.” After saying that, Jordyn hugged the toy and went upstairs.
