Seeing Trevor and Wynn , Beck’s gaze fell on Celeste .
Noticing that Celeste’s expression remained unchanged at the sight of those two , he lowered his head slightly and smiled , saying , “ I’ll head over for a moment . ”
Celeste and Matthias both nodded .
Beck walked over and had just exchanged a few words with Trevor and Wynn when Jorge arrived as well .
Upon seeing Wynn , his instinct was to walk toward her .
Wynn glanced at him and smiled slightly , “ Mr. Robinson . ”
“ Ms. Locket . ” Jorge had been busy lately and hadn’t seen Wynn in a while .
Now that he did , a flicker of admiration flashed in his eyes . He took an extra discreet glance at her before greeting Beck and Trevor .
YodaVision was now an extremely important partner for the Robinson Group . So , after a brief chat with Beck , Jorge headed over to Matthias and proactively greeted him .
After exchanging pleasantries , he greeted Celeste with a lukewarm , “ Ms. Rodriguez . ”
Celeste simply smiled without responding .
YodaVision had already sent out invitations for its own banquet , but the Robinson Group hadn’t received one .
Jorge had only learned about this tonight .
If YodaVision didn’t even bother to invite him , then chances were , Celeste and Matthias wouldn’t be attending the Robinson Group’s banquet tomorrow either .
Thinking of this , Jorge frowned slightly .
Neither Celeste nor Matthias had any intention of dealing with him . Matthias directly said , “ Mr. Robinson , we’re going to greet some old friends . Please excuse us . ”
Without waiting for a response , the two of them turned and walked away .
Of course , Jorge knew they simply didn’t want to talk to him . Truthfully , he had wanted to establish a good relationship with Matthias .
But despite their long – standing business partnership , Matthias had never given him a single opening . His dislike was so apparent that he didn’t even bother to hide it .
Jorge pressed his lips together . He was displeased but had nothing to say , so he could only watch them leave .
For the past two to three months , YodaVision had been in the spotlight . So , seeing Celeste and Matthias , many people actively went over to greet them .
Among them were several business partners YodaVision had been in contact with recently .
Ever since YodaVision’s investment conference , many of its deals had been handled by Celeste . As a result , many business partners who had engaged with her knew just how strong she was in the field .
Some of them had even secretly tried to poach her . However , Celeste had turned them all down .

Even so , those executives remained courteous toward her .
Now , seeing her again , someone couldn’t help but openly attempt to recruit her in front of Matthias .
“ Ms. Rodriguez , our company is also one of the top firms the country . The benefits are excellent , and there’s a lot of flexibility . Whatever conditions you have , we can negotiate . ”
These people really had some nerve .
Celeste smiled and politely declined , “ I currently have no plans to leave YodaVision , but I appreciate your offer , Mr. Simmons . ”
Hearing her refusal again , David Simmons sighed heavily .
A moment later , someone noticed his frustrated expression and couldn’t help but ask , “ David , what’s with you tonight ? If I didn’t know better , I’d think you just missed out on a billion – dollar deal . ”
“ It’s almost the same . ”
Since the person wasn’t a business competitor , he confided , “ I came across an exceptional talent , but no matter how hard I try , she won’t budge . ”
“ Oh ? Who ? ”
“ Ms. Rodriguez from YodaVision . ”
“ Huh ? Her ? She looks quite young . Is she really that capable ? ”
“ She really is . ”
His company’s top technical experts had spoken highly of her after conversing with her . And these were no ordinary professionals – they were the best of the younger generation , personally recruited by David himself .
For them to praise someone so highly , it spoke volumes about her ability .
Wynn was unaware of the compliments Celeste was receiving . She was chatting with James .
After speaking with a few people , Jorge stepped away from the crowd . Noticing that Wynn wasn’t with Trevor , he walked over .
Seeing him approach , Wynn gave him a faint smile . “ Mr. Robinson . ”
Jorge nodded , then looked at James and asked , “ This is … ? ”
Wynn Introduced James ‘ background , then added , “ He’s my mentor now . I’ve been studying under him for a while and have gained a lot of knowledge . ”
She had previously expressed her desire to become Zachary’s student and had been working toward that goal without giving up .
Hearing her say this now , Jorge realized she was even more determined than he had imagined . He admired her persistence and respect for knowledge .
Stepping back , he said , “ I’ll let you two continue . ”
Wynn nodded and turned back to continue her discussion with James .
Seeing her so focused , Jorge found it hard to look away .

Just then , someone approached him for a conversation , so he left .
A moment later , Jorge stepped away from the crowd , intending to go to the restroom . But on his way , he spotted Celeste and Trevor off to the side .
He abruptly stopped .
The scene of Trevor embracing Celeste from a few months go suddenly resurfaced in his mind .
Before he could fully process his thoughts , he saw Trevor pick up a piece of cake and hand it to Celeste .
Jorge’s gaze darkened . He pursed his lips and walked toward them .
Celeste did not reach out to take the cake .
As Jorge drew closer , Trevor noticed him and turned around “ Mr. Robinson . ”
