    Jorge recalled that Harvey had mentioned Wynn and <b>Trevor </b>would also be attending. So, he stood up and said, ” Alright, once your grandfather is done, send me a message


    “Sure.”


    Jorge and Xavier then stepped outside.


    Just as they left, Beck and Miles arrived.


    The Lockets and the Shaws immediately went up to greet them.


    Beck shook hands with Harvey. Then, Miles nced around “Where are Trevor and Wynn? They haven’t-”


    Before he could finish his sentence, his gazended on Celeste. “Damn!”


    She was here too.


    Beck, unaware of <b>what </b>was going on, followed his gaze and also <b>spotted </b>Celeste. His eyes darkened slightly.


    At that moment, Matthias was walking toward Celeste and Betty.


    Beck turned back to Miles and Harvey and said, “I’m going over to say hello.” With that, he left.


    “Mr. Yoder, Ms. Rodriguez.” Hearing his voice, Matthias and Celeste turned around.


    Matthias greeted, “Oh, it’s Mr. Harper.”


    Upon hearing the name, Betty recalled what Hector and Ivas had mentioned before and took a closer look at Beck.


    Seeing the close bond between Celeste and Betty, Beck quickly guessed her identity and respectfully said, “You must be Madam Klein. It’s a pleasure to meet <b>you</b>.”

    Because of this, they naturally held some resentment toward her.


    For that reason, they didn’t read too much <b>into </b>Beck’s polite behavior <b>toward </b>Celeste and Betty.


    Ruby, holding onto Patricia’s arm, lowered her voice and said, “I didn’t expect Mr. Yoder to be so attentive to


    Celeste.”


    Seeing how much Matthias valued Celeste, she felt somewhat displeased.


    Patricia, however, remainedposed. “No rush.” It was still too early to say if there was anything going on between Matthias and Celeste.


    Once Trevor actually divorced her, Celeste would be a divorced woman with a child. Would the Yoder family ever ept a woman with such a past
