Chapter 184
Celeste was stunned for a moment .
Even though Caleb invited her to dance again , she could tell that he didn’t mean it romantically .
It was just a gesture of apology and friendliness .
Seeing his sincerity , Celeste obliged and placed her hand in his .
Beck had already got off the dance floor .
His expression darkened when he noticed that Celeste and Caleb were back on the dance floor , dancing together .
Wynn , too , was a little surprised when she saw how Caleb had invited Celeste for another dance .
Trevor saw them as well .
He lifted an eyebrow , smirking . As though nothing had happened , he continued his dance with Wynn .
Moments later , Trevor received a call . He and Wynn stepped off the dance floor .
It just so happened that Miles didn’t want to keep dancing either .
Hence , Miles and Wynn made their way to Beck , whose gaze had hardly left Celeste .
Celeste and Caleb were still dancing
Miles took a sip of his drink , his gaze settling on Celeste . “ Caleb seems pretty interested in her . But , you know , with such a distinguished family , they would never approve of her , even if he really likes her , ” he said .
After all , Celeste had been married and even had a child . Given how the Rodriguezs were barely holding on , it’d be shocking if the Jennings ever accepted her .
Miles didn’t say those words aloud , but Wynn knew what he was trying to convey .
Having stayed at Baumond for so long , she knew the Flemings , Harpers , Quintons , Jennings , and Robinsons were * among the most prestigious families in the city .
She had guessed before that Caleb came from an influential family – maybe even the Jennings .
And she was right .
Maybe Caleb did like Celeste , yet that didn’t mean it was in a romantic way .
As for Celeste marrying into the Jennings ? That was nowhere near happening .
Just as Wynn was mulling over it , she saw Caleb and Celeste walk away from the dance floor .
After a brief nod to Celeste , Caleb walked away without a trace of reluctance .
Wynn smiled .
It seemed like she had guessed it right .
She knew Celeste simply wasn’t the kind of woman who could make a man like Caleb fall for her at first sight .
Miles averted his gaze . “ I’m a little hungry after all those dances . Wanna go for a bite ? ” he asked .
Seeing Celeste and Matthias walk to the buffet area , Beck answered , “ Okay . ”
Chapter 184
Wynn let Trevor – who was still on his phone – know where they were headed before leaving with Miles and Beck
to the buffet area .
As they arrived , several people at the buffet area came over to greet them .
Some even took the opportunity to discuss potential business collaborations with Beck and Miles .
Wynn stood aside as she listened to them talk .
Just then , Caleb and Jorge came .
When Jorge noticed her , he walked over . “ Hello , Ms. Locket
Wynn wore a faint smile , “ Hi , Mr. Robinson . ”
“ Where’s Mr. Fleming ? Why isn’t he with you ?
“ He’s busy making calls now . ”
Realizing that Wynn and Caleb hadn’t been introduced , Jorge took the initiative . “ Ms. Locket , this is my good friend , Caleb Jennings . ”
Then , he turned to Caleb and said , “ Caleb , this is Ms. Locker ”
Caleb extended his hand . “ Nice to meet you , Ms. Locket . ”
Wynn shook hands with him . “ Likewise . ”
Celeste and Matthias were about to head to where they were as well .
When he saw them , Matthias clicked his tongue in annoyance .
