Seeing Trevor and Wynn, Beck’s gaze fell on Celeste.
Noticing that Celeste’s expression remained unchanged at the sight of those two, he lowered his head slightly and smiled, saying, “I’ll head over for a moment.”
Celeste and Matthias both nodded.
Beck walked over and had just exchanged a few words with Trevor and Wynn when Jorge arrived as well.
Upon seeing Wynn, his instinct was to walk toward her.
Wynn nced at him and smiled slightly, “Mr. Robinson.”
“Ms. Locket.” Jorge had been busytely and hadn’t seen Wynn in a while.
Now that he did, a flicker of admiration shed in his eyes. He took an extra discreet nce at her before greeting Beck and Trevor.
YodaVision was now an extremely important partner for the Robinson Group. So, after a brief chat with Beck, Jorge headed over to Matthias and proactively greeted him.
After exchanging pleasantries, he greeted Celeste with a lukewarm, “Ms. Rodriguez.”
Celeste simply smiled without responding.
YodaVision had already <b>sent </b>out invitations for its <b>own </b>banquet, but the Robinson Group hadn’t received one.
Jorge had only learned about this tonight.
If YodaVision didn’t even bother to invite him, then chances were<b>, </b>Celeste and Matthias wouldn’t be attending the Robinson Group’s banquet tomorrow either.
Thinking of this, Jorge frowned slightly.
Neither Celeste nor Matthias had any intention of dealing with him. Matthias directly said, “Mr. Robinson, we’re going to greet some old friends. Please excuse us.”
Without waiting for a response, the two of them turned and walked away.
Of course, Jorge knew they simply didn’t want to talk to him. Truthfully, he had wanted to establish a <b>good </b>rtionship with Matthias.
But despite their long–standing business partnership, Matthias had never given him a single opening. His dislike was so apparent that he didn’t even bother to hide it.
Jorge pressed <b>his </b>lips together. He was displeased but had nothing to say, so he could only watch them leave.
For the past two to three months, YodaVision had been in the spotlight. So, seeing Celeste and Matthias, many people actively went over to greet them.
Among them were several business partners YodaVision had been in contact with recently.
Ever since YodaVision’s investment conference, many of its deals had been handled by Celeste. As a result, many business partners who had engaged with her knew just how strong she was in the field.
Some of them had even secretly tried to poach her. However, Celeste had turned them all down.
Even so, those executives remained courteous toward her.
Now, seeing her <b>again</b>, someone couldn’t help but openly attempt to recruit her in front of Matthias.
“Ms. Rodriguez, ourpany is also one of the top firms the country. The benefits are excellent, and there’s a lot of flexibility. Whatever conditions you have, we can negotiate.”
These <b>people </b>really had some nerve.
Celeste smiled <b>and </b>politely declined, “I currently have no ns to leave YodaVision, but I appreciate your offer, Mr. Simmons.”
Hearing her refusal again, David Simmons sighed heavily.
A momentter, someone noticed his frustrated expression and couldn’t help but ask, “David, what’s with you tonight? If I didn’t know better, I’d think you just missed out on a billion–dor deal.”
“It’s almost the same.”
Since the person wasn’t a businesspetitor, he confided, “I came <b>across </b>an exceptional talent, but no matter how hard I try, <b>she </b><b>won’t </b>budge.”
“Oh? Who?”
“Ms. Rodriguez from YodaVision.”
“Huh? Her? She looks quite young. Is she really that capable?”
“She really is.”
Hispany’s top technical experts had spoken highly of her after conversing with her. And these were no ordinary professionals–they were the best of the younger generation, personally recruited by David himself.
For them to praise someone so highly, it spoke volumes about her ability.
Wynn was unaware of thepliments Celeste was receiving. She <b>was </b>chatting with James.
After speaking with a few people, Jorge stepped away from the crowd. Noticing that Wynn <b>wasn’t </b>with Trevor, he walked over.
Seeing him approach, Wynn gave him a faint smile. “Mr. Robinson.”
Jorge nodded, then looked at James and asked, “This is…?”
Wynn Introduced <b>James</b>‘ background, then added, “He’s my mentor now. I’ve been studying under him for a while and <b>have </b>gained a lot of knowledge.”
She had previously expressed her desire to be Zachary’s student and had been working toward that goal without giving up.
Hearing her say this now, Jorge realized she was even more determined than he had imagined. He admired her persistence and respect for knowledge.
Stepping back, he said, “I’ll let you two continue.”
Wynn nodded and turned back to continue her discussion with James.
Seeing her so focused, Jorge found it hard to look away.
Just then, someone approached him for a conversation, so he left.
A momentter, Jorge stepped away from the <b>crowd</b>, intending to go to the restroom. But on his way, he spotted Celeste and Trevor off to the side.
He abruptly stopped.
The scene of Trevor embracing Celeste from a few months go suddenly resurfaced in his mind.
Before he could fully process his thoughts, he saw Trevor pick up a piece of cake and hand it to Celeste.
Jorge’s gaze darkened. He pursed his lips and walked toward <b>them</b>.
Celeste did not reach out to take the cake.
As Jorge drew closer, Trevor noticed him and turned around “Mr. Robinson.”
