Chapter 370
Kieran never managed to find a chance to go rafting with Celeste . However , during dinner , he once again “ ran into “ Celeste and her family .
Ivan and Adeline warmly invited him and his friend to eat with them .
After learning that he was from the Gibson family , Ivan curiously asked, “ What made you suddenly decide to come back and develop your career here ? ”
Thinking of the original reason he returned , Kieran paused slightly in his movements before replying , “ I’ve always been very interested in YodaVision’s programming nguage Cuap and their latest project , Infinite – CM , so I came back to join the company and learn . ”
Ivan , Adeline , and Betty were all aware of Celeste’s involvement with YodaVision .
Upon hearing this, they all smiled subtly and glanced at Celeste . Meanwhile , Celeste just quietly lowered her head and continued eating .
Kieran , however , didn’t think too much of it .
Celeste was indeed very capable professionally .
But from what he had gathered , she had only joined YodaVision last year . But Cuap had already existed for many years . Moreover , the outside world always credited Cuap’s development to Zachary .
To the industry , it made perfect sense that such a powerful language was developed by Zachary .
As for YodaVision’s latest project , Infinite – CM , Kieran genuinely believed it was being led by Matthias .
Since joining YodaVision , Kieran had interacted with Matthias in a few meetings . From those limited interactions , he could tell Matthias was indeed highly skilled in his field .
But since they hadn’t interacted deeply , Kieran couldn’t really compare who was more capable – Matthias or Celeste . That said , from what he observed at work , it seemed Celeste was always assisting Matthias .
So , he also assumed that Matthias was professionally stronger than Celeste .
The Rodriguez family was gracious , warm , and engaging in conversation . After dinner , Kieran was left with a good impression of everyone .
But once the meal ended , Celeste and her family left the scenic area and headed home . Seeing them go , Kieran and his friends didn’t linger much longer either .
The next day , Celeste received another call from Jordyn . She was getting ready to return to the country .
She said , “ Mom , Dad won’t be back for another two to three days . Do you have time ? I want to come see you and Granny when I get back . ”
Celeste remembered how Betty had mentioned Jordyn a few times over the past few days . So , after two seconds of silence , she said , “ Come on over . ”
On the last day of the holiday , after returning to the country Jordyn went straight to the Rodriguez residence . She’d even brought gifts for Celeste and the rest of the family .
Betty , Ivan , and his family were delighted with the presents
Celeste noticed that in Jordyn’s suitcase , aside from the gifts for them , there were two that hadn’t been given out .

It was obvious they were prepared for Trevor and Wynn.
Celeste calmly looked away .
After distributing the gifts , the excitement from traveling wore off , and fatigue set in . Still reluctant to part from Celeste , Jordyn snuggled into her arms before falling asleep , hugging her tightly around the waist .
She hadn’t even showered .
But seeing how tired she looked and how soundly she was sleeping , Celeste didn’t wake her . After she fell asleep , Celeste gently moved her to the bed .
The next morning , before work , Celeste dropped her off at school . She didn’t ask when Trevor would be back .
Three days after the May Day holiday ended , Trevor returned to the country . But he didn’t contact Celeste . Instead , he reached out to Jordyn .
After speaking with him on the phone , Jordyn said to Celeste , “ Mom , Dad said he’s coming to pick me up soon . ”
Celeste replied , “ Okay . ”
Jordyn was still a little reluctant to leave the Rodriguez family , but Trevor had said he missed her . So , even though she didn’t want to leave Celeste , she had to go back with him .
Half an hour later , Trevor arrived .
Celeste walked to his car , holding Jordyn’s hand .
Trevor got out of the car , looked at her , and said , “ Thank you for taking care of her these past few days . ”
Celeste didn’t respond . Instead , she turned to Jordyn and said , “ Jo , I need to talk to your dad for a moment . Get in the car first . ”
Jordyn glanced at them and said , “ Okay . ” Then , she obediently got into the car .
Once Trevor shut the car door , Celeste finally spoke . “ Jo is only six years old . You really felt comfortable letting her travel so far with just bodyguards ? ”
Before he could respond , she continued coldly , “ I don’t know why you trust those bodyguards so much , but I don’t want something like this to happen again . ”
When she finished , she expected him to argue . But he simply looked at her and replied , “ Okay , I understand . ”
Celeste paused and didn’t say anything else .
Trevor then added , “ We’ll head back now . You should get some rest . ‘
Celeste said nothing and turned to go back into the house .
