Celeste didn't care how Trevor thought of her or looked at her, nor was she interested.
After leaving the restaurant, Celeste and Matthias' group headed back to Fleming Tech for a meeting.
This time, Lilian and Linda didn't follow. But Wynn did.
Seeing Wynn come along again, Matthias secretly rolled his eyes and said, "Mr. Fleming, about Ms. Locket—"
Trevor seemed to know what he wanted to say.
Before Matthias could finish, Trevor spoke up, "If you're concerned about confidentiality, you don't have to worry. If anything does happen, I'll take full responsibility."
Matthias had expected him to say that. After all, when they first started working with InnovaTech, Trevor had said exactly the same thing.
Even so, Matthias still needed clear assurance.
Hearing Trevor's words, Matthias put on a half-hearted smile and said, "I feel better with your assurance."
During the meeting in the morning, the seat at the center of the table was occupied by Trevor alone. Now that Wynn was here, he had someone add a chair next to him, and she sat down by his side.
Celeste noticed this but quickly withdrew her gaze.
The meeting officially began.
With Matthias present, there was no need for Celeste to speak. She and Kieran mostly just listened quietly.
Midway through the meeting, Celeste got thirsty and reached for a bottle of water nearby.
But Kieran was faster. "Thirsty? Let me help you."
Without waiting for her response, he twisted the cap open for her.
Celeste looked at him, took the bottle, and said, "Thanks."
Kieran smiled and leaned in to quietly chat with her about some technical points that Matthias and Trevor had just discussed.
Celeste lowered her voice and responded.
Which meant that even if other men tried to flirt with Celeste, even if Celeste were hurt or toyed with, Trevor wouldn't care at all.
Realizing this, Wynn smiled faintly.
Meanwhile, Jorge wasn't paying much attention to Kieran. Instead, his focus was on Wynn and Trevor.
There had been a time when Trevor and Celeste seemed close.
Jorge had worried that Trevor might do something to betray Wynn. But recently, they didn't seem to be in contact much anymore.
Maybe Trevor had once been briefly attracted to Celeste's looks, but ultimately, he hadn't been "won over".
The one he loved was still Wynn.
Today—whether at lunch or now at the meeting—Trevor truly hadn't paid any special attention to Celeste.
Because of this, Jorge also felt much more at ease.
