Wynn smiled lightly. “We’ll see in the future.”
This clearly implied that as long as Wynn wanted to, she could join thepany at any time.
The many ways Trevor treated her differently no longer surprised Celeste.
She picked up her ss of water and took a sip. Just then<b>, </b>she noticed someone standing outside the ss door. Raising her head slightly, she saw Trevor.
She froze.
Trevor saw her <b>too</b>, 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 hade down specifically to take Wynn out for lunch.
Seeing Henry and Jonathan start to stand up to greet him<b>, </b>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, Ipletely understand how busy you must be,” Matthias replied with a smile. Trevor gave a faint smile, nced briefly at Celeste, and then said nothing more before leaving with Wynn Everyone knew Trevor owned severalpanies, so Matthias wasn’t surprised that he was at InnovaTech today. What he didn’t expect was for Wynn to also be there.
Matthias nced at Celeste and gave her shoulder aforting 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 <b>was </b>just an asional visit. She hadn’t realized that Wynn seemed to treat Trevor’spany like her <b>own</b>. 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 coboration. Each use had to be discussed thoroughly.
By the time they finalized the terms, it was <b>already </b>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?”
+25 BONL
“<b>Yes</b>,” Henry replied. “He’s busy handling another project,
Was that really the case?
Was he too busy, or was it because Celeste <b>was </b>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 <b>throat </b>and lowered his voice.
“Ms. Locket has been here all day. I hear she’s been with Mr. Fleming the whole time. Their rtionship seems pretty solid.”
Sitting next to Matthias<b>, </b>Celeste naturally overheard thement
A short whileter, 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 apanied them downstairs.
As they waited <b>for </b>the elevator, they unexpectedly encountered Trevor and Wynn.
