Nadine disliked Wynn, and she equally disliked Trevor. 2

After mocking Wynn, she turned to Trevor with a smile and said, "

I''ve always heard people say that you and Ms. Locket are deeply

in love, that no matter where you go, you always bring Ms.

Locket along. 4

"Seeing it today, I realize the rumors really weren''t exaggerated

Although Nadine was clearly being sarcastic, the way she said it

with a smile would make anyone unaware think she was

genuinely praising Trevor and Wynn''s rtionship. 2

Just then, someone happened toe over to chat with them

Hearing this, that person smiled and chimed in, "Yes, Mr.

Fleming really is wonderful to Ms. Locket.” 1

Nadine cast Trevor a cold nce. She didn''t respond, but she

didn''t continue either. 2

After all, today was a big celebratory day for YodaVision. If the

banquet turned chaotic because of the two of them, it wouldn''t

be worth it. 2

Matthias and Celeste thought the same.

Matthias forced a smile and said, "Mr. Fleming, my mentor and I

have something to take care of, so we''ll excuse ourselves." 1

Wynn naturally understood the meaning behind Nadine''s earlier

quip of "I''ve long heard of you." Her expression didn''t look too

good hearing that. 4

Although Nadine had mocked Wynn, she hadn''t spared Trevor

either. Yet on Trevor''s face, there was no trace of anger.

After Matthias spoke, he maintained his smile and politeness,

saying, “It''s fine, you go ahead." With that, he gave a polite nod,

then left together with Wynn. 1

After they had left for a while, Nadine lowered her voice and

asked Celeste, "How long until your mandatory waiting period is

Celeste answered truthfully, "Less than half a month." 2

Nadine pursed her lips and said, "This time, make sure nothing

goes wrong.

"Yes," Celeste replied.

From what Zachary had implied, if there were no unexpected

incidents, she probably wouldn''t need to go to the base again for

the next month.

“That''s good." Nadine felt relieved.

She then pinched Celeste''s cheek lightly and said, "Once your

divorce is finalized, I''ll celebrate with you." 7

Celeste smiled, "Okay." 2

The banquet went on.

After that, Celeste and Matthias were mostly busy greeting

guests, their figures constantly moving through the hall.

Trevor and Wynn didn''te over to bother them again.

Because there were always peopleing to talk to him, Trevor

was actually quite busy too.

His mood that night didn''t seem the least bit dampened by the

cold reception from Zachary and Nadine. He chatted happily

with people, asionally ncing to the side.

And Wynn stayed by his side the whole time.

Jorge didn''t deliberately try to chat with Wynn; however, he had

kept himself near her. +

After talking with someone for a while, he gave Wynn a couple

of nces, then turned back, ready to continue his conversation.

He noticed that at some point, Celeste and Matthias had also

he caught sight of Trevor''s gaze.

At first, he didn''t pay much attention, but then he noticed

something, paused, and turned his head again to look at Trevor.

And in that moment, he realized—Trevor was looking at Celeste.

Noticing this, his expression darkened.

But then, Trevor withdrew his gaze.

Seeing that, Jorge wondered if he was just overthinking it. After

all, Trevor truly did treat Wynn very well.

Still, he kept his guard up, sneaking nces at Trevor from time

It didn''t take long before he realized he hadn''t been overthinking

at all—because while talking with others, Trevor''s gaze once

again fell on Celeste. 19style
