Chapter 736
“Is that so?” Quentin replied calmly.
“What about Mr. Yoder? He doesn’t interfere?”
“He doesn’t! I heard that he dotes on his girlfriend so much that whatever she says goes. So, even though our boss lowered his stance and tried to communicate several times, it still didn’t work at all.”
“Really?” Quentin’s tone was indifferent, but there was a hint of mockery.
He wasn’t surprised at all when he heard that. After all, he had occasionally kept in touch with former colleagues from YodaVision. So, he naturally knew that the company had long become Celeste’s rule.
On the other side, Nathan walked up to Celeste and Matthias and took the initiative to introduce himself.
“Mr. Yoder, Ms. Rodriguez, I am Nathan Lackspur, the current person in charge of Lackspur Corporation. This is our first meeting, nice to meet you.”
The smile on Matthias’s face faded slightly, but he still shook hands with him.
Celeste did the same.
Nathan then said, “Although we didn’t manage to cooperate this time and it is a pity,
I believe we still have many opportunities in the future.”
By saying this, Nathan was already expressing his intention to build a good relationship with them.
In response, Matthias said in an ambiguous tone, “We’ll see about it.”
Nathan knew that Matthias and Celeste would not change their attitude toward him immediately, but he was not in a hurry.
Celeste and Matthias indeed had a sense of “guilt by association” toward Nathan.
However, they were unwilling to work with or form any ties with him, not only because they disliked Narcissa. It was also because they were worried that if they really did cooperate in the future, Narcissa might cause trouble on her end.
If that was the case, why would they take such a risk?
At that moment, someone came over to discuss something with them. So, Matthias said coldly to Nathan, “Mr. Larkspur, we still have things to attend to. Please excuse us.”
“Of course,” Nathan smiled and said.
Then Matthias and Celeste left.
However, they did not go far and continued chatting with others nearby.
Lackspur Corporation still maintained quite a network in Baumond. At that moment,
some people had also come over to speak with Nathan.
While talking to others, Nathan accidentally caught sight of Celeste out of the corner of his eye.
She was talking with Bryson and some other people.
He listened carefully and seemed to have caught their discussion on Al-related topics.
When Celeste spoke, her tone was unhurried and calm, but Bryson and the others looked pleasantly surprised. It was as if they were
asking her for advice on related knowledge.
He had heard about the matters between Celeste, Trevor, Wynn, and Matthias previously.
Before actually interacting with her
and based on what he had heard
from his sister he had thought Celeste was someone who liked to show off and was rather smug.
But after personally contacting her that time, he felt that Celeste seemed quite reasonable from her tone.
He could sense that although she refused to cooperate with them because of his sister, she did not deliberately target him.
It was because of this feeling that he had taken the initiative again today to try to ease the tension between them.
Now that he saw her in person, even though they barely exchanged any words, he noticed that she truly seemed catin, unhurried, unfazed by praise or criticism, and not afrogant at all.

At that moment, Narcissa came over. Following his gaze, she asked, “Nate, what
are you looking at?”
Nathan withdrew his gaze. “Nothing.”
Then, he asked, “Have you finished talking?”
Narcissa gestured toward Wynn, not far away. “They have things to do. I look like a
third wheel staying there all the time.”
