Wynn watched but didn’t seem to care .
Beck’s softened attitude toward Celeste was merely because of his collaboration with YodaVision .
Miles shared the same thought .
This was the third time Calvin had seen Celeste ,
He said , “ So , that young lady is Beck’s girlfriend ? ”

Miles almost choked on his own saliva . “ What girlfriend ? They have no such relationship . Don’t make things up . ”
Calvin had just come to Baumond and didn’t know much about anything .
Miles and Wynn assumed he was just guessing because Celeste was good – looking , and she and Beck made an attractive pair .
“ Alright then . ”
But earlier , after Beck saw that young lady , his attention never shifted away from her even once . That was why he thought they were a couple .
But even if they weren’t together now, Beck must like that young lady , right ?
Beck had already noticed the gazes from Wynn and Miles .
As the meeting time approached , he briefly exchanged farewells with Celeste and was about to leave .
But suddenly , he remembered something and asked , “ You’re not attending InnovaTech’s banquet in a few days , are you ? ”
Celeste replied , “ No. ”
Hearing her definite answer , Beck felt a slight stir in his chest . He said nothing further , gave her a small nod , and turned to leave .
Just as he was approaching Miles , Trevor arrived .
He , too , saw Celeste working in the distance .
But after just a couple of glances , he withdrew his gaze and said to Miles and Beck , “ It’s about time . Let’s head upstairs for the meeting . ”
Beck noticed Trevor’s complete indifference toward Celeste
His eyes lowered slightly .
Before heading upstairs , Trevor asked Calvin , “ Have you been to my office yet ?!
“ Not yet . ”
“ I had some tea and snacks prepared . If you get bored , go up and have some . ”
In just two to three days , Trevor and Calvin had already developed a good rapport .
At noon , after the meeting , InnovaTech’s executives and shareholders gathered for a meal .
Although Wynn and Calvin weren’t high – ranking executives , because of their relationship with Trevor , they ended up riding in his car to the restaurant .

As they left , Beck glanced up at InnovaTech’s office building , thinking of Celeste . Suddenly , he asked Miles , When will Trevor’s divorce proceedings be finalized ? ”
Miles didn’t think much of it , assuming Beck was simply concerned about Trevor and Wynn’s relationship and wanted Trevor to finalize the divorce with Celeste soon .
He replied , “ It could’ve been done a few days ago , but there was an issue with the transfer of shares in one of Trevor’s companies . That has to be resolved before they can proceed . But it should be soon . ”
“ I see . Got it . ”
At noon , Celeste had lunch with InnovaTech’s employees in the company cafeteria .
After eating , she rested for a bit before getting back to work
By around 3:00 pm , she finished her tasks at InnovaTech and returned to YodaVision .
On the night of Harper Corporation’s banquet , Celeste and Matthias headed there together after wrapping up
work .
When Beck heard that they had arrived , he went to the entrance to greet them . But the moment he saw Celeste , he involuntarily halted his steps .
Tonight , Celeste wore a shimmering , off – shoulder gown in shades of blue and violet .
Her soft skin was flawless , almost glowing , and the gown’s flowing silhouette accentuated her elegance and freshness .
Beck took in the sight , feeling that tonight , she was more breathtaking than he had ever seen her before .
Two seconds later , he quickly suppressed his emotions and walked forward , greeting them politely , “ Mr. Yoder , Ms. Rodriguez . ”
Matthias and Celeste greeted him together . “ Mr. Harper . ”
As they exchanged a few pleasantries , Trevor and Wynn arrived .
Wynn’s outfit for the night was also striking
She wore a white , form – fitting , high – fashion gown , complemented by dazzling jewelry on her ears and neck- clearly expensive pieces
Her entire look was nothing short of stunning . But when she saw Celeste , she paused briefly .
She had to admit – tonight , Celeste was even more beautiful than she had been in the past .
Even so , Wynn felt neither anxious nor inferior . So what if Celeste was beautiful ? Her inner essence had no appeal to others .
Meanwhile , Wynn had more to offer than just her looks .
With that thought , she withdrew her gaze calmly and turned to Trevor beside her .
Seeing that he had merely glanced at Celeste before looking away without any reaction , Wynn’s lips curled into a faint smile .
