The pastries Matthias wanted were right over there.
Just as Matthias and Celeste were about to head <b>there</b>, someone called them over to talk business.
On the other side, after greeting Wynn, Caleb turned to Beck and Miles. “Hello, Mr. Harper, Mr. Quinton.”
Beck nodded.
Just then, Trevor wrapped up his calls and made <b>his </b>way over.
Miles <b>recalled </b>how Caleb and Celeste <b>had </b>spent quite a while on the dance floor. He rubbed his <b>nose </b>and let out a quict cough.
After all, regardless of everything, Celeste was still Trevor’s wife.
Beck’s expression darkened a little as well.
Trevor, however, appearedpletely unfazed.
He took the initiative to greet Caleb when he saw him. “Hello, Mr. Jennings.”
Caleb nodded. “Hello, Mr. Fleming‘
Trevor tapped his ss against his, took a sip, and said, “It’s been a <b>while</b><b>, </b>huh?”
Caleb gripped his ss <b>lightly</b>. “Yeah, it has been.”
Miles was at a <b>loss </b>for words,
Well, that was a pointless concern.
The group of people then started chatting among themselves.
Celeste and Matthias were tied up in conversation for a good while.
They didn’t run into Trevor and the others again for the night.
As it was gettingte, they greeted the host before quietly slipping <b>away</b>.
On Monday morning, just as Matthias arrived at the office, he was told that Ethan Yates from Fleming Group was already downstairs, hoping to discuss a coboration.
Wynn had arrived alongside Ethan.
Matthias was at a loss for words.
Had it been Trevor personally seeking a meeting, he wouldn’t have bothered meeting him.
But he had <b>a </b>solid rapport with Ethan.
With Trevor sending him over, turning him down wasn’t exactly an option.
He had to admit that Trevor really knew how to pull the right strings.
Besides, Ethan had brought Wynn along
Matthias’s temples ached with an oing headache.
He bit back his frustration as he went to Celeste <b>and </b>filled her in
Chapter <b>185 </b>
Celeste said, “Seeing Wynn isn’t that big of a deal, though.
Meeting her didn’t necessarily mean a deal was on the table, anyway.
“You’re right,” Matthias replied. Secondster, he asked, “Do you want toe along?”
“Sure.”
After letting Wynn and Ethan wait in the meeting room for a while, Celeste and Matts finally made their way
over<b>. </b>
As Matthias stepped through the door, Ethan and Wynn rose in unison to greet him.
Wynn’s expression flickered when she saw Celeste walk in with him, but she didn’t dwell on it. After Ethan exchanged greetings with Matthias, she followed suit. “Hello, Mr. Yoder.”
Matthias nodded. “Please, have <b>a </b>seat, Ms. Locket,”
Celeste’s outstanding appearance, coupled with her years at Fleming Group, made her quite memorable to Ethan.
Before he took his seat, he blurted out, “It’s you, Ms. Rodriguez!”
Ethan smiled. “I was wondering why I hadn’t seen you in a while. So, you quit and came to YodaVision.”
Back when Celeste was still working at Fleming Group, they did have the asional work interaction.
She replied with a beam, “Yes, I’ve been working here for some time now.”
“That’s good to hear.”
After the pleasantries, they moved on to the main topic.
When Ethan handed his proposal to <b>Matthias</b>, Wynn did the same.
Matthias took the proposals in hand and passed one of them to Celeste. “Cel, you can look at Ms. Locket’s proposal. What do you say?”
“okay.”
Wynn stilled for a brief moment, but she didn’t utter a word
Celeste started to flip through the proposal
Though she couldn’t read ten lines in <b>a </b>single nce, her speed was above average.
It only took her <b>a </b>few minutes to finish reading Wynn’s proposal.
Then, she handed the proposal back to Wynn. Staring into Wynn’s eyes, she said, “I can see that you put in a lot of effort, Ms. Locket. Still, there are quite a few issues. Compared to otherpanies seeking to coborate with YodaVision, your proposal isn’t in a favorable position.”
