Jorge proceeded to tell Caleb about what he saw today.


    Thetter replied to his text, saying, “Celeste <b>and </b>her grandina left a good impression on my dad and my grandpa, Perhaps that has something to do with it.”


    The way Jorge <b>saw </b>it, Harold <b>paid </b>close attention to Celeste and treated her rather specially. It didn’t matter how good of an impression she left, they had merely met each offer once. It was too far–fetched.


    With that said, Jorge didn’t think too much of it after he heard what Caleb said.


    The weather forecast predicted rain or even <b>show </b>in the afternoon. Before Celeste finished eating, she noticed that it was pouring outside.


    After the meal, Harold and the other politicians needed to have a deeper discussion with Celeste and the otherpany representatives. This time, it was aboutst <b>year’s </b>production and operation as well as this year’s development n.


    Later, Harold and the other politicians thanked the variouspanies for their contribution to the city’s economy. That marked the end of the business–government forum.


    After the forum ended, Trevor and Celeste would leave after they shook hands with Harold and the other politicians.


    When she was shaking Harold’s hand, he said, “It’s particrly cold today. From what I heard, the road out there is covered with a thinyer of ice. It’s going to be slippery. So, drive carefully.”


    Celeste responded, “I will. Thank you, Mr. Jennings.”


    She, Trevor, and the otherpany representatives left together and headed to the parking lot outside.


    He stood next to her and said, “You’re wearing a pair of high heels, which can’t be good for walking. You have to watch out,”


    Trevor spoke to Celeste in front of many people. It would be inappropriate if she ignored him. t out of options<b>, </b>she responded, “I appreciate it, Mr. Fleming, I will be careful!


    What happened now reminded her of an incident that happened duringst year’s technology exposition. Back then, all of them gathered at a restaurant<b>, </b>and she slipped and fell. He cared so much about avoiding misunderstandings that he wouldn’t even help her up.


    Now, however, he was acting very differently. He didn’t deliberately lower his volume when he spoke either. What was more, he was in the middle of <b>a </b>conversation with the other businessmen when he spoke to her.


    Trevor’s tone sounded intimate, too. Moreover, he took the initiative to talk to Celeste. So, everypany representative, including Jorge, heard what he said.


    Aside from Jorge, some of thepany representatives shared a meal with Trevor and Celeste during the technology expositionst year.


    YodaVision Co. rose to prominence out of nowhere, which also caused Celeste to shoot to fame in the business circle. Now, many people thought they knew about her rtionship with Matthias


    Naturally, more people remembered what happened during the technology expositionst year. They believed <b>that </b>Trevor ignored Celeste when she “deliberately slipped and fell” in an attempt to seduce him during the dinner.


    <b>Now</b>, however, it no longer seemed like that was the case.


    They thought that maybe Trevor was being polite and expressed concern for Celeste because InnovaTech and YodaVision Co. had coborative projects. However, <b>he </b>addressed her by her first name.


    It came off so naturally that it sounded quite suggestive, no matter how one interpreted it. It begged a question. Was Trevor finally mesmerized by Celeste?


    Jorge didn’t attend the technology expositionst year. He had no idea that Celeste “deliberately seduced” Trevor.


    All he knew <b>was </b>that Trevor had taken the Initiative to talk to her earlier. He couldn’t hear what they were talking about. Back then, he suspected he had misread the situation. Judging by what he heard now, however, it didn’t seem like the case anymore.


    Jorge also believed that Trevor was captivated by Celeste and had the intention to have an affair with her. The notion made his expression turn icy as he looked at them.


    Celeste knew that it would rain today. So, she brought an umbre. However, the chilling wind was so biting that it could’ve nicked someone’s face.


    She might have known about the possibility of rain and snow today, but she still thought that it wouldn’t be <b>too </b>bad in Baumond because it was already February. The snow should have melted as soon as it fell to the ground, which meant the road shouldn’t have been that slippery.


    However, the road icing situation was much worse than she had previously thought. Exiting the venue, that it was quite slippery when she walked up the steps. So, she walked more carefully to avoid slipping


    she felt


    The people who weren’t close to Trevor walked past Celeste Meanwhile, he stood next to her and didn’t show any signs of leaving. Meanwhile, the businessmen who did know Trevor gave him a teasing look.


    Jorge stopped walking and <b>was </b>about to say something, but Celeste slipped and fell forward. Just as she was about to hit the floor, Trevor swiftly reached out and held her by the waist, keeping her safe from harm.


    Before she knew what happened, he pulled her into his arms.
