Chapter 236
Ruby anxiously said , “ I heard that in the few days since Martha got injured , Trevor and Celeste – even the other members of the Rodriguez family – have been in frequent contact .
“ Yesterday , someone even saw Trevor having a meal with the old lady from the Rodriguez family . Could they bel rekindling their past relationship ? ”
“ There was never a relationship to rekindle , ” Wynn replied calmly , though she disliked Ruby’s choice of words .
Seeing how worried Ruby was , Wynn patiently explained , “ Madam Daniels has a close relationship with the Rodriguez family . Trevor needs to keep Celeste and the old lady on good terms , so they’ll continue visiting Martha .
“ That way , Martha won’t use her surgery as leverage to forge Trevor to break up with me . ”
Ruby had never thought of this .
Ever since Martha’s fall , she had expelled both their families from the Fleming Group . For the past two days , both families had been worried that Martha would demand Trevor and Wynn break up as a condition for agreeing to the
surgery .
They had also been afraid that Trevor might give in .
Now that Trevor and Wynn were still together , they had assumed he had persuaded Martha . But unexpectedly , he had resolved the issue by working through the Rodriguez family instead .
Realizing this , Ruby finally felt at ease . She then asked , “ So , that project – was it Trevor’s way of thanking the Rodriguez family ? ”
“ Yes ,” Wynn replied . “ It’s both a thank – you gift and a way to draw a clear boundary . ”
Hearing this , Ruby couldn’t help but admire him . “ Trevor is truly thorough in everything he does . No wonder he manages all his companies so well . ”
With things progressing favorably , Ruby should have been happy . But …
Something suddenly came to her mind , and before she could stay happy for even a minute , she frowned . “ Because of Celeste , the Rodriguez family has already secured a project from YodaVision .
“ Their business has started showing signs of revival . If they also take on a project from Fleming Group , won’t their company truly come back to life ? ”
Hearing this , Wynn’s expression turned cold . She said , “ They didn’t take the project . ”
“ They didn’t ? ”
Before Wynn could answer , Ruby figured it out on her own . So , they want Trevor to owe them a favor , giving Celeste an excuse to stay entangled with him ? What a clever scheme ! ”
With Trevor and Celeste about to finalize their divorce , Ruby would not allow any complications to arise .
She said , “ We can’t fall into their trap- ”
But Wynn remained composed . “ No need to worry . Trevor will handle it . ”
Hearing this , Ruby recalled everything that had happened so far . Not once had Trevor let them down .
If he dared to offer the project , he had probably already anticipated that the Rodriguez family would try to take advantage of the situation .

Trevor was so shrewd he must have already planned a way to deal with it , right ?
Thinking this , Ruby finally felt completely reassured .
After a moment , as if something else had come to mind , she asked , “ By the way , have you visited Madam Daniels . in the past couple of days ? ”
Wynn replied , “ No. ”
Ruby seemed a bit disappointed . Wynn explained , “ Her recovery must be smooth , without any complications . ”
Right now wasn’t the right time for her to appear .
Besides , although Trevor had managed to keep Celeste and the old lady from the Rodriguez family in check and successfully convinced Martha to undergo surgery , her post – surgery recovery would take time .
For that , they would still need Celeste and her grandmother’s presence .
Wynn was not in a hurry .
