The Scent of 262

    Chapter <b>262 </b>


    Wynn watched but didn’t seem to care.


    Beck’s softened attitude toward Celeste was merely because of his coboration with YodaVision.


    Miles shared the same thought.


    This <b>was </b>the third time Calvin had seen Celeste,


    He said, “So, that youngdy is Beck’s girlfriend?”


    <b>Miles </b>almost choked on his own saliva. “What girlfriend? They <b>have </b>no such rtionship. Don’t make things up.”


    Calvin had juste to Baumond and didn’t know much about anything.


    Miles and Wynn assumed he was just guessing because Celeste was good–looking, and she and Beck made an attractive pair.


    “Alright then.”


    But earlier, after Beck saw that youngdy, his attention never shifted away from her even once. That was why he thought they were <b>a </b>couple.


    But even if they weren’t together now, Beck must like that youngdy, right?


    Beck had already noticed the gazes from Wynn and Miles.


    As the meeting time approached, he briefly exchanged farewells with Celeste <b>and </b>was about to leave.


    But suddenly, he remembered something and asked, “You’re not attending InnovaTech’s banquet in a few days, are you?”


    Celeste replied, “No.”


    Hearing her definite answer, Beck felt a slight stir in his chest. He said nothing further, gave her a small <b>nod</b><b>, </b>and turned to <b>leave</b>.


    <b>Just </b>as he was approaching Miles, Trevor arrived.


    He, too, saw Celeste working in the distance.


    But after <b>just </b>a couple of nces, he withdrew his gaze and said to Miles and Beck, “It’s about time. Let’s head upstairs for the meeting.”


    Beck noticed Trevor’splete indifference toward Celeste


    His <b>eyes </b>lowered slightly.


    Before heading upstairs, Trevor asked Calvin, “Have you been to my office yet?!


    “Not yet.”


    “I had some tea and snacks prepared. If you get bored, go up and have some.”


    In just two to three days, Trevor and Calvin had already developed a <b>good </b>rapport.


    At noon, after the meeting, InnovaTech’s executives and shareholders gathered for a meal.


    Although Wynn and Calvin weren’t high–ranking executives, because of their rtionship with Trevor, they ended up riding in his car to the restaurant.


    As they left, Beck nced up at InnovaTech’s office building, thinking of Celeste. Suddenly, he asked Miles, When will Trevor’s divorce proceedings be finalized?”


    Miles didn’t think much of it, assuming Beck was simply concerned about Trevor and Wynn’s rtionship and wanted Trevor to finalize the divorce with Celeste soon.


    He replied, “It could’ve been done a few days ago, but there <b>was </b>an issue with the transfer of shares in one of Trevor’spanies. That has to be resolved before they can proceed. But it should be soon.”


    “I see. Got it.”


    At noon, Celeste had lunch with InnovaTech’s employees in thepany cafeteria.


    After eating<b>, </b>she rested for a bit before getting back to work


    By around 3:00 pm, she finished her tasks at InnovaTech and returned to YodaVision.


    On the night of Harper Corporation’s banquet, Celeste and Matthias headed there together after wrapping up


    work.


    When Beck heard that they had arrived, he went to the entrance to greet them. But the moment he saw Celeste, he involuntarily halted his steps.


    Tonight, Celeste wore a shimmering, off–shoulder gown in shades of blue and violet.


    Her soft skin was wless, almost glowing, and the gown’s flowing silhouette entuated her elegance and freshness.


    Beck took in the sight, feeling that tonight, she was more <b>breathtaking </b>than he had ever seen her before.


    Two secondster, he quickly suppressed his emotions <b>and </b>walked forward, greeting them politely, “Mr. Yoder, Ms. Rodriguez.”


    Matthias and Celeste greeted him together. “Mr. Harper.”


    As they exchanged a few pleasantries, Trevor and Wynn arrived.


    Wynn’s outfit for the night was also striking


    She wore a white, form–fitting, high–fashion gown,plemented by dazzling jewelry on her <b>ears </b>and neck- clearly expensive pieces


    Her entire look was nothing short of stunning. But when she saw Celeste, she paused briefly.


    She had to admit–tonight, Celeste was even <b>more </b>beautiful than she had been in the past.


    Even so, Wynn felt neither anxious nor inferior. So what if Celeste was beautiful? Her inner essence had no appeal to others.


    Meanwhile, Wynn had more to offer than just her looks.


    With that thought, she withdrew her gaze calmly and turned to Trevor beside her.


    Seeing that he had merely nced at Celeste before looking away without any reaction, Wynn’s lips curled into a faint <b>smile</b>.
