Wynn didn’t even spare Celeste a glance . Clearly , Celeste wasn’t included in her apology .
Jorge wasn’t paying attention to Celeste at all , so he naturally didn’t notice these details . He simply said , “ It was just a few minutes , it’s fine . ”
“ How generous of you , Mr. Robinson , ” Matthias stood up , his tone chilly . “ Now that everyone’s here , let’s not waste any more of our time . Let’s get started . ”
Trevor maintained his politeness . “ That was our mistake , Mr. Yoder . Please , go ahead . ”
Matthias let out a cold huff , grabbed Celeste , and walked out of the meeting room first .
Trevor saw how closely Matthias held onto Celeste , but he quickly looked away , showing no reaction , as if he didn’t care .
However , Beck glanced at them a couple more times .
Among the group , Trevor and Wynn were undoubtedly the center of attention .
When they arrived at the test track , the staff respectfully reported , “ Mr. Fleming , Ms. Locket , everything is ready . ”
The way they acted made it clear they regarded Wynn as the boss’s wife .
“ Start the test , ” Trevor ordered .
“ Yes , sir . ”
They could clearly observe the driving conditions through the monitors .
After the test driver had successfully completed a round , the staff asked if Trevor and Wynn wanted to experience it firsthand .
Trevor agreed . So , he and Wynn got into the same car .
On the monitors , they could be seen chatting happily . When they looked at each other , their gazes seemed practically intertwined .
Celeste watched the screen without looking away , her expression calm .
Matthias , on the other hand , looked thoroughly disgusted .
Miles also wanted to try and was about to ask Beck when Linda approached him . “ Mr. Harper , shall we-
Before she could finish , Beck cut her off . “ You guys go ahead . I’m not interested . ”
Linda choked on her words .
Meanwhile , Henry turned to Matthias and Celeste . “ Mr. Yoder , Ms. Rodriguez , would you like to give it a try ? ”
They knew the car’s specs better than most of the InnovaTech staff . They had originally planned to try it , but now , after everything that had happened , they were already fuming . What was the point ?
Matthias snorted . “ No thanks . ”
Celeste chuckled and leaned in to whisper to him about the car’s engine specs . Then she asked , “ Are you sure you don’t want to try it ? ”
Matthias glared at her . “ How do you know all this ? ”

Celeste touched her nose . “ I happened to glance at the data they brought over earlier . ” Having a good memory had its perks .
Matthias ‘ mood instantly improved . “ Go back and replicate it with me . ”
“ Alright . ” With that , she pulled him into the car .
Half an hour later , they were done with the test .
Trevor said , “ Thank you all for your hard work today . How about we grab a meal together ? ”
“ Sounds good , ” Jorge answered .
Matthias scoffed and said flatly , “ Sorry , we’re busy . Enjoy your meal . We have things to do , so we’ll be heading out first . ”
Trevor nodded . “ In that case , let’s do it another time . ” Then , he turned to Henry . “ See Mr. Yoder and Ms. Rodriguez out . ”
Henry quickly responded , “ Of course . ”
Matthias curled his lips in mockery but didn’t say anything . He simply walked out with Celeste .
Meanwhile , Xavier lowered his voice and whispered to Jorge , “ Why do I get the feeling that Matthias really can’t stand Mr. Fleming and his people ? ”
Jorge had already noticed this the last time they ran into them here .
Back then , he thought maybe he was overthinking it and that Matthia
