Chapter 68

Wynn smiled lightly . “ We’ll see in the future . ”
This clearly implied that as long as Wynn wanted to , she could join the company at any time .
The many ways Trevor treated her differently no longer surprised Celeste .
She picked up her glass of water and took a sip . Just then , she noticed someone standing outside the glass door . Raising her head slightly , she saw Trevor .
She froze .
Trevor saw her too , though his gaze didn’t seem to linger on her .
Celeste turned back to find Wynn smiling subtly in the direction of the door . It was clear she was greeting Trevor .
Then Wynn turned to Jonathan and said , “ I’ll be leaving now . ”
Only then did Jonathan and Henry realize that Trevor had arrived .
It was nearing noon , and it was obvious Trevor had come down specifically to take Wynn out for lunch .
Seeing Henry and Jonathan start to stand up to greet him , Trevor waved it off . “ No need for formalities . Continue with your work . ”
They quickly nodded and sat back down .
Trevor then addressed Matthias politely . “ I’ve been tied up with work and couldn’t host you personally . I hope you’ll understand .”
“ You’re too kind , Mr. Fleming , I completely understand how busy you must be , ” Matthias replied with a smile . Trevor gave a faint smile , glanced briefly at Celeste , and then said nothing more before leaving with Wynn Everyone knew Trevor owned several companies , so Matthias wasn’t surprised that he was at InnovaTech today . What he didn’t expect was for Wynn to also be there .
Matthias glanced at Celeste and gave her shoulder a comforting pat .
Celeste shook her head . She was fine .
When she came to InnovaTech , she had mentally prepared herself for the possibility of running into Trevor . What she hadn’t expected was Wynn’s presence .
Henry had mentioned a few days ago that Wynn had visited novaTech before . At the time , Celeste thought it was just an occasional visit . She hadn’t realized that Wynn seemed to treat Trevor’s company like her own . She came and went as she pleased , and she was fully acquainted with everyone there .
The contract negotiations involved many technical details and terms to ensure there would be no unnecessary disputes during the collaboration . Each clause had to be discussed thoroughly .
By the time they finalized the terms , it was already past 5.00 pm .
After Matthias signed the contract , Jonathan personally took the document upstairs for Trevor’s signature . Matthias paused . “ Mr. Fleming is still in the office ? ”

“ Yes , ” Henry replied . “ He’s busy handling another project ,
Was that really the case ?
Was he too busy , or was it because Celeste was here and he didn’t want to interact with her ?
Celeste considered this possibility as well .
Henry , being a technical expert like Matthias , was someone he had known previously . Now that the contract was signed and the tension eased , Henry cleared his throat and lowered his voice .
“ Ms. Locket has been here all day . I hear she’s been with Mr. Fleming the whole time . Their relationship seems pretty solid . ”
Sitting next to Matthias , Celeste naturally overheard the comment
A short while later , Jonathan returned with the signed contract .
Matthias , who had important personal matters to attend to that evening , declined Jonathan’s dinner invitation . Jonathan and Henry didn’t push further and instead courteously accompanied them downstairs .
As they waited for the elevator , they unexpectedly encountered Trevor and Wynn .
