Chapter 100
Jordyn ran downstairs and told Trevor , “ Dad , Mom’s already having lunch in the room . So , she’s not coming down . here . ”
Miles raised an eyebrow when he heard it . It turned out Celeste knew her place . Beck lowered his gaze and fell silent .
Meanwhile , Wynn smiled subtly . She knew that Celeste wouldn’t dare to join them for lunch . After all , no one really wanted her here .
Celeste could try coming down and joining them , but all she would get was mockery and exclusion . Instead of putting herself through this , it was natural for her to hole up in her room and be the weasel that she saw .
Trevor heard what Jordyn said and responded , “ Alright . Got it . ”
He wasn’t that insistent about Celeste joining them as well . “ Let’s not wait anymore . Dig in , everyone . ”
Wynn heard what he said , and her smile deepened . Then , she gracefully sat next to Trevor .
Meanwhile , Celeste continued to work after she had finished her lunch . By now , Matthias had reached home , and she had thought of more new ideas .
By the time Celeste was done talking to Matthias about it , she sent them over to him . When he was done going through them , he got so excited he banged the table and said , “ Oh my fucking God . You’re a fucking genius !
“ Just look at how fast you have a grasp of things . You are a freaking prodigy in this field , Celeste . I knew you could do it ! ”
At the next moment , Matthias cupped his head and grumbled regretfully before she could say anything , “ Seven years . That’s how much time we’ve wasted . If you hadn’t gone off to get married , YodaVision Co. would’ve been world – famous ! ”
Matthias ‘ shouts hurt Celeste’s ears , so she moved her phone away from her .
Matthias also realized that he shouldn’t have brought up such a bleak thing when they were celebrating her idea . He cleared his throat and went back to the topic at hand .
They were onto something big , and they would need a bigger team . Matthias immediately contacted Yandel Sanchez , a staff member at YodaVision Co. He also invited the other staff to join them .
Yandel and his gang didn’t just choose to work at YodaVision Co. because they wanted to have a job with a stable income ; they also genuinely wanted to learn new skills .
Once they heard what Matthias said , they realized there was a huge gap between their skills and those of Matthias and Celeste in the artificial intelligence field .
Although Yandel and his gang couldn’t grasp the key concept , they immediately got excited about Celeste’s ideas after Matthias explained them . They didn’t mind working overtime and officially joined the team .
In a situation like this , it was actually better for everyone to discuss it in person . However , it would take Celeste two hours to get to YodaVision Co.
The thing about inspiration was that one had to capitalize on it when it struck . Otherwise , one might be unable to recall it if it was interrupted .

“ No idea . They’re having lunch , I guess , ” Celeste responded indifferently .
“ Just Trevor and Jordyn ? ”
“ Wynn , Miles , and Beck are here . ”
“ And they left you here alone in your room ? ”
“ Jordyn came over and asked me to join them downstairs , but I rejected it . ”
“ Good to know . It seems like Trevor still has a sliver of his conscience intact . ”
Celeste disagreed . She shared the same thought with Miles – Trevor must have offered her to join because he didn’t want Martha to nag at him .
More to the point , the people downstairs were all on Wynn’s side . Even if Celeste actually joined them , they didn’t have to worry about her “ picking on ” Wynn . That was why they weren’t worried about having her .
Celeste and Matthias worked for another four hours . Soon , it was close to dinner time , so they decided to take a two – hour break before they resumed work .
Celeste compiled everything they did today before shutting her laptop . She intended to go out for a brief stroll and some fresh air , which would allow her to unwind . She could also pick up two cartons of apples and bring them to Matthias and everyone else in the company .
