Chapter <b>381 </b>
As soon as the words were spoken, a knock sounded at the private dining room door.
It was Miles and Beck.

Miles pushed the door open, and upon seeing how many people were already inside, he eximed in surprise, Whoa, so many people?”
This restaurant was owned by his family.
He and Beck had juste over for a meal. After hearing from the restaurant manager that Trevor was dining here, they decided to drop by and say hello–they didn’t expect such arge gathering.
And on top of that, it was full of familiar faces.
Seeing so many people there, Miles instantly felt that just the two of them dining alone would be no fun, so he asked, “Trevor, since there are already so many here, do you mind if Beck and I join as well?”
Trevor turned and asked, “Professor Milford, Mr. Yoder, I wonder if-”
Since Rodney had just voluntarily invited the Lockets and the Shaws to join, Trevor couldn’t very well refuse his own friends.
Rodney replied graciously, “Of course, I don’t mind. I wonder what Mr. Yoder thinks?”
Matthias smiled and said, “Mr. Harper and Mr. Quinton are old acquaintances of mine, I don’t mind at all.” Originally, Matthias had been a bit displeased about the Lockets and the Shaws tagging along. But now?
He almost wished the whole world would cram into the private room–how could he possibly mind two more? Meanwhile, Linda, who had been wanting to see Beck for a while now, couldn’t hold herself back once she finallyid eyes on him. She stood up and said, “Beck<b>, </be sit over here with me.”
But Beck ignored her, and, along with Miles, had the server add two chairs next to Trevor.
They had barely sat down when another knock came at the door.
This time, it was Jorge and three core engineers from hispany. Hispany was also involved in the Fleming Group’s project.
As he stepped in and saw the number <b>of </b>people present, he looked slightly surprised.
But what surprised him wasn’t the presence of Celeste or Matthias–after all, Trevor partnering with YodaVision for the project was no longer a secret.
What shocked him was seeing Wynn, along with the Lockets and the Shaws.
After entering and briefly ncing at Wynn, Jorge said, “Apologies, everyone, I’mte.”
Trevor replied, “Not at all. We just arrived as well. Please, Mr. Robinson, have a seat.”
Before sitting, Jorge greeted Rodney, “You must be Professor Milford. It’s an honor–I’ve heard a lot about you.‘
“Ah, so you’re Mr. Robinson. A pleasure indeed,” Rodney replied.
Zeke had originally reserved arge private room with a big round table that could easily seat 20 to 30 people.
Even <b>with </b>the addition of Wynn, Beck, Miles, and the others, it wasn’t crowded.
After sitting down, <b>Jorge </b>asked, “What were you
discussing”
Rodney took over and briefly recapped the conversation.
“I see,” Jorge nodded, then turned to Wynn. “For Professor Sweeney <b>to </b>personally message <b>you </b>about this–he must really hold you in high regard.”
Wynn smiled modestly, saying, “I’m deeply honored by the professor’s mentorship. I’ll keep working hard, and I’ll be sure to study the rmended paper thoroughly–won’t let him down.”
With both Rodney and Cayden showing her such recognition, Jorge was genuinely happy for her. At the same time, he felt even more admiration–and fondness–for her.
It was clear he was reluctant to take his eyes off her with the way he looked at her. But since Trevor was present, he eventually looked away.
Wynn, of course, could sense Jorge’s growing interest in her.
She still hadn’t forgotten that Beck didn’t personally attend her grandmother’s birthday, and she was a bit bothered by it.
She nced over at him, only to find him sitting there quietly drinking tea, not even looking her way, nor reacting to all thepliments being showered on her.
Her brows furrowed slightly before she turned away<b>. </b>1
Once again, Wynn had be the center of attention, much to the delight of the Lockets and the Shaws.
