However , Harvey and his group had already turned and gone upstairs , so they didn’t see Matthias getting out of the car .
Matthias withdrew his gaze and quickly went over to greet Kevin .
After exchanging pleasantries , their group was about to head upstairs when Trevor also arrived .
As soon as he stepped out of the car , Kevin spotted him and greeted him with delight . “ Mr. Fleming ! ”
Trevor’s expression remained unchanged when he saw Celeste and Matthias .
He smiled faintly and shook hands with the approaching Kevin . “ Mr. Thatcher , when did you arrive ? ”
“ Just now , ” Kevin said with a laugh . “ Last time , you mentioned having a meal together when you had time . When would you be available ? How about tonight ? ”
Trevor replied , “ My schedule is full today . Let’s do it in a couple of days . ”
“ Sure , sure , a couple of days works too . ”
Watching Trevor and Kevin chatting , Matthias muttered in low voice , “ We only had peace for half a month , and Dow we’ve run into them again . ”
Celeste said nothing . But indeed , it had been half a month since she last saw Trevor .
Even when she visited Martha at the hospital last weekend , he wasn’t there .
Over the past ten days or so , Jordyn had called her several times – especially in the last two to three days .
It was probably because winter break had started , and with Trevor and Wynn too busy to spend time with her , she had been bored and called Celeste multiple times .
But Celeste never answered any of her calls .
To be fair , Trevor had kept his promise . Whatever he had told Jordyn , it worked – because even though Celeste hadn’t answered , Jordyn didn’t show up at the Rodriguez residence either .
That had saved her a lot of trouble .
As she was thinking about this , Trevor and Kevin finished their conversation . So , all of them entered the elevator together .
Seeing that Matthias and Celeste weren’t speaking to Trevor , Kevin belatedly realized there seemed to be some tension between them .
His smile turned a little awkward .
Celeste noticed that Trevor seemed to be looking at her . She pursed her lips , and just as she raised her head , her gaze met his deep black eyes .
Then Trevor suddenly asked her , “ When are you free ? ”
Celeste withdrew her gaze and didn’t look at him , responding coldly , “ I’m never free . ”
Even without thinking , she knew this question had something to do with Jordyn .
It had only been half a month since she last saw her – there were still over ten days before it reached a full month .

She had been extremely busy lately and had no time to take care of Jordyn .
Trevor chuckled slightly , as if he didn’t mind her attitude , and simply sald , “ The Ember Festival is coming soon .
Celeste paused , suddenly realizing what he meant . If she didn’t take some time for Jordyn now , then during the Ember Festival .
She had been so busy lately that she had completely forgotten about this .
However , she said indifferently , “ I don’t mind skipping a month .”
After all , she had spent quite a bit of time with Jordyn last month . What did it matter if she didn’t this month ?
Trevor raised an eyebrow at her words but said nothing .
Kevin , listening to their conversation , was momentarily confused . He didn’t understand what they were talking about .
Just then , the elevator stopped . Trevor gave Kevin a brief nod before stepping out and leaving-
Once the elevator doors closed , Kevin turned to Celeste . “ Ms. Rodriguez , were you and Mr. Fleming a couple ? ”
Celeste replied , “ No. ”
Kevin didn’t believe her . He assumed that she and Trevor had quarreled and were just saying that out of spite . Besides , he thought the two of them actually looked quite compatible .
But before he could say more , his phone rang . So , the topic was dropped .
After their meal , Celeste and Matthias headed downstairs with their group , only to run into Trevor and the Locket family again in the parking lot .
They overheard Calvin saying to Trevor , “ You’d better treat my sister well ! If you dare bully her , I won’t let you off ! Got it ? ”
It was Calvin’s first time meeting Trevor in person .
In the private dining room earlier , when he first laid eyes on him , Calvin didn’t dare to speak so boldly .
After all , Trevor carried an imposing aura – it was clear at a glance that he wasn’t an ordinary man .
However , Trevor had been very kind to him .
Recalling how his family had praised Trevor endlessly , the distance between them had faded over the course of the meal , and Calvin was no longer intimidated .
So , D
now , he dared to throw down some tough words . But in reality , Calvin was actually very satisfied with his future brother – in – law .
From his perspective , Trevor was indeed worthy of his sister in every aspect . Not to mention , Trevor treated both Wynn and their family exceptionally well .
Naturally , Calvin had no complaints .
So , while his words sounded fierce , everyone present understood his true meaning .
Trevor smiled and said , “ Alright . ”
Wynn , hearing this , also smiled sweetly .
It was a very heartwarming scene .

Matthias , watching it all , let out a cold laugh .
Celeste remained expressionless .
Kevin , however , finally understood something . He turned to Celeste . “ So , you really weren’t in a relationship with Mr. Fleming ? ”
So , that beautiful woman over there was actually Trevor’s girlfriend ?
Celeste answered indifferently , “ Yes . ”
At that moment , Trevor and Wynn also noticed Celeste and Matthias , turning their gazes toward them .
But Matthias had no interest in them . He simply said to Ken , “ Mr. Thatcher , please get in the car . ” Earlier , when they had run into Trevor , Kevin had already sensed that Matthias and Trevor weren’t on good terms . Given the situation , Kevin didn’t say much . He merely nodded politely toward Trevor before getting into the car . Celeste and Matthias followed right after . Soon , their car left the parking lot .
