At the restaurant , seeing the Locket and Shaw families approaching , Celeste remained expressionless .
Matthias , on the other hand , muttered under his breath , “ What a small world . ”
The Locket and Shaw families were delighted to see Matthias .
Harvey greeted him with a smile , “ Mr. Yoder , we meet again . ”
Matthias responded with a faint smile , “ Yes ”
Harvey suggested , “ Since we’ve run into each other , why don’t we dine together ? ”
Earlier on the phone , Harvey had already wanted to invite Matthias for a meal . Now that they’d met by chance , he naturally didn’t want to miss the opportunity .
Matthias replied , “ No need . This is my personal time . Maybe next time . ”
“ Well … Alright , next time then . ” Since Matthias had declined , Harvey couldn’t insist .
Matthias nodded and said to Celeste , “ Let’s go . ”
Celeste nodded as well . Without sparing the Locket and Shaw families another glance , she followed him upstairs .
Watching them leave , Lennox frowned . “ Wynn told me that Matthias has always kept his attitude lukewarm toward her because of Celeste . Do you think he’ll refuse to work with us on the YodaVision project because of her ? ”
Given Matthias ‘ Indifferent attitude , it was a real possibility .
Lilian commented lightly , “ There’s still some time before the bidding for the YodaVision projects . Nothing is set In stone yet , so anything is possible . ”
Mason chuckled , “ Exactly . Wynn and Trevor’s relationship couldn’t progress because of Mrs. Fleming Senior’s interference . But now , things have suddenly turned around , haven’t they ? So , we shouldn’t lose hope . There’s still a chance . ”
The turnaround he was referring to was Trevor and Celeste’s impending divorce .
Hearing this , Patricia’s mood brightened .
None of them , including Wynn , had known about this until Miles had casually mentioned it to her .
Later , they found out that the divorce papers were taking longer than expected to process .
Trevor hadn’t told Wynn because he didn’t want her to worry . He had planned to surprise her once everything was finalized .
Thinking of this , Patricia beamed . “ Trevor has wanted a divorce for a long time . Now that Wynn got injured saving him , he’s ignoring his grandma’s objections and insisting on divorcing Celeste . He truly cares for Wynn . ”
“ Yes , all of Wynn’s patience is finally paying off . Her happy days are just around the corner . “”
“ Indeed . ”
Hearing this , Lilian and Harvey also smiled .
But then , looking in the direction where Celeste and Matthias had left , Patricia’s smile faded a little . “ That Celeste surely doesn’t want a divorce . What if , in the end , it doesn’t go through ? ”

Then he looked at the third min . “ Caleb , how come you’re free today ? ”

Jorge frowned but said nothing
Inside their private room , Xavier took a sip of tea and commented , “ I have to say , Matthias is pretty impressive . If those two projects go through , his net worth will skyrocket . ”
Caleb responded coolly , “ He’s always been smart . He was mentored by Zachary , and his field of study happened to align perfectly with industry trends , and he’s highly capable . His success is only natural . ”
Then he turned to Jorge . “ I heard from Xavier that you were once interested in the woman by Matthias ‘ side but quickly moved on .
“ Moving on is one thing , but why do you seem to dislike her now ? Did she do something ? ”
Earlier , Jorge hadn’t even looked at Celeste . His dislike was so apparent that it was impossible to ignore .
Mentioning how he had once been captivated by Celeste’s beauty and presence was now something Jorge didn’t want to hear . It annoyed him .
He frowned and said , “ Can we not talk about her ? Let’s just order . ”
Caleb shrugged and dropped the topic .
