Wynn smiled lightly. “We’ll see in the future.”
This clearly implied that as long as Wynn wanted to, she could join the company at any time.
The many ways Trevor treated her differently no longer surprised Celeste.
She picked up her glass of water and took a sip. Just then, she noticed someone standing outside the glass door. Raising her head slightly, she saw Trevor.
She froze.
Trevor saw her too, though his gaze didn’t seem to linger on her.
Celeste turned back to find Wynn smiling subtly in the direction of the door. It was clear she was greeting Trevor.
Then Wynn turned to Jonathan and said, “I’ll be leaving now.”
Only then did Jonathan and Henry realize that Trevor had arrived.
It was nearing noon, and it was obvious Trevor had come down specifically to take Wynn out for lunch.
Seeing Henry and Jonathan start to stand up to greet him, Trevor waved it off. “No need for formalities. Continue with your work.”
They quickly nodded and sat back down.
Trevor then addressed Matthias politely. “I’ve been tied up with work and couldn’t host you personally. I hope you’ll understand.”
“You’re too kind, Mr. Fleming, I completely understand how busy you must be,” Matthias replied with a smile. Trevor gave a faint smile, glanced briefly at Celeste, and then said nothing more before leaving with Wynn Everyone knew Trevor owned several companies, so Matthias wasn’t surprised that he was at InnovaTech today. What he didn’t expect was for Wynn to also be there.
Matthias glanced at Celeste and gave her shoulder a comforting pat.
Celeste shook her head. She was fine.
When she came to InnovaTech, she had mentally prepared herself for the possibility of running into Trevor. What she hadn’t expected was Wynn’s presence.
Henry had mentioned a few days ago that Wynn had visited novaTech before. At the time, Celeste thought it was just an occasional visit. She hadn’t realized that Wynn seemed to treat Trevor’s company like her own. She came and went as she pleased, and she was fully acquainted with everyone there.
The contract negotiations involved many technical details and terms to ensure there would be no unnecessary disputes during the collaboration. Each clause had to be discussed thoroughly.
By the time they finalized the terms, it was already past 5.00 pm.
After Matthias signed the contract, Jonathan personally took the document upstairs for Trevor’s signature. Matthias paused. “Mr. Fleming is still in the office?”

“Yes,” Henry replied. “He’s busy handling another project,
Was that really the case?
Was he too busy, or was it because Celeste was here and he didn’t want to interact with her?
Celeste considered this possibility as well.
Henry, being a technical expert like Matthias, was someone he had known previously. Now that the contract was signed and the tension eased, Henry cleared his throat and lowered his voice.
“Ms. Locket has been here all day. I hear she’s been with Mr. Fleming the whole time. Their relationship seems pretty solid.”
Sitting next to Matthias, Celeste naturally overheard the comment
A short while later, Jonathan returned with the signed contract.
Matthias, who had important personal matters to attend to that evening, declined Jonathan’s dinner invitation. Jonathan and Henry didn’t push further and instead courteously accompanied them downstairs.
As they waited for the elevator, they unexpectedly encountered Trevor and Wynn.
