<b>Clearly</b>, it was Wynn who answered the <b>call</b>.
Jordyn felt a little ufortable lying right in front of Celeste. “Mom, how about you take me to school next.
time?”
Celeste replied, “Okay,”
Celeste and Tucker were going the same way, so they shared a car.
Having missed his morning study session, Tucker made up for it by studying in the car.
Celeste <b>noticed </b>his hesitations and gently corrected him on a couple of points.
Tucker gave her a thumbs up. “You’ve got a sharp memory Celeste!”
They arrived at Tucker’s high <b>school</b>.
Celeste, too, graduated from the <b>same </b><b>high </b>school.
The familiar campus brought back a flood of memories for er.
Her thoughts were cut short as Tucker quickly got out of the car. “Bye, Celeste!”
“See you.”
<b>The </b>car rejoined the bustling road.
Arriving at YodaVision, Matthias pinched her cheek lightly “Your face looks <b>pale</b>. Are you sick?”
“Yeah, I was running a fever yesterday,”
“And you still <b>came </b><b>to </b>work today?”
Celeste shrugged. “But I’m feeling much better now.”
“I’m heading to InnovaTechter. Do you want to follow?”
“Why not?” Celeste replied as she went through thetest test data
“Alright, I’lle to youter.”
“Okay.”
Celeste noticed some problems with two sets of data, so she went to Yandel to have them corrected.
Matthias came to her when she was about to go through the documents on her desk, telling <b>her </b>it was time to go.
Once they arrived at InnovaTech, they didn’t waste time with pleasantries<b>, </b>Jumping right into work.
About an hourter, when the work was mostly done, Henry handed them a cup of coffee <b>each</b><b>. </b>
Matthias took a sip of the coffee andmented, “This coffee is really good, even richer than the ones I’ve had before. Looks like yourpany’s benefits are getting better and better.”
With that, Henry shed a mischievous grin. “It’s all thanks to Ms. Locket.”
Matthias rolled his eyes.
“Wynn again?” he thought.
He ced the cup back on the table and nced at Celeste
“I’m thirsty,” Celeste uttered as she continued to sip on the coffee.
Matthias was at a loss for words.
Henry’s penchant for gossip was still evident. “Didn’t Mr. Heming give Ms. Locket full control over a project?”
Matthias nodded.
Henry went on, “Ms. Locket’s probably a bit anxious since it’s her first big project, so her team has been working overtime during the weekend. I heard they were working until past 10:00 pmst night.”
“I see,” Matthias responded coldly.
“Honestly, don’t you think she’s quite dedicated and responsible? She didn’t treat the project as a game just because she’s Mr. Fleming’s girlfriend.”
Matthias scoffed. “Could it be that shecks <b>the </b>skills, which is why she needs so <b>many </b>people working overtime with her?”
Henry knew what he was talking about.
“It takes time for people to improve, right<b>?</b>”
“Maybe,” Matthias said nonchntly.
He nced at Celeste. “When Cel led her first big project at thepany, she managed it with impressive poise from beginning to end.”
After working with Celeste a few times, Henry discovered that Celeste was way more capable than Matthias.
Hence, he believed what Matthias had just said.
He then added, “At <b>least </b>she has a great attitude. With that, plus Mr. Fleming’s support, she’s <b>sure </b>to aplish great things down the road<b>.</b><b>” </b>
