“ It’s not necessary . I won’t be returning to YodaVision ever again ! ” Quentin declared as he walked away , not even glancing back .
Celeste held talent in high regard . She turned to Matthias , who shook his head , advising her not to rush .
Matthias recognized Quentin’s talent and was reluctant to let him go . However , he’d sensed that Quentin had feelings for Wynn from their first meeting .
Though Quentin’s feelings were a personal affair that didn’t concern Matthías , he couldn’t ignore that Quentin’s emotions for Wynn had clouded his judgment . As a result , Quentin unfairly reacted to Celeste’s arrival without justification . This behavior was simply unacceptable .
Additionally , they collaborated with the government on Cuap’s core technology and signed a confidentiality agreement . Thus , Celeste’s identity could not be exposed .
Quentin’s impulsive nature was largely influenced by his high regard for Wynn . Even if Celeste were to showcase her talents in the future , Quentin might remain unconvinced of her abilities .
He would likely believe that Wynn could outperform her . Ultimately , it was almost certain that Celeste would overshadow Quentin in the future .
If Quentin believed he had a bias toward Celeste , he risked being manipulated in the future . This could lead to his downfall and significant losses for the company .
Celeste was relieved to see that he understood the situation .
Matthias cleared his throat and said , “ Even though Cel hasn’t pursued a doctorate , I assure you that her professional skills are remarkable . ”
The colleagues in the office exchanged bewildered glances . They were aware that Quentin had previously recommended a friend to Matthias , but since he hadn’t provided any further details , they were left in the dark about the specifics .
In fact , a similar incident to what happened to Celeste today occurred last year when the woman was the mistress of a senior executive at the company . The woman appeared charming , confident , and articulate .
She claimed to be a graduate student at a local prestigious university with solid knowledge . Yet , in reality , she lacked knowledge and didn’t understand basic professional terms . In the end , they even doubted whether she had ever attended any university at all .
The incident happened again , and Matthias even removed his friend with an impressive resume because of Celeste . Hence , it was understandable that Quentin was angry . Everyone also felt that Matthias couldn’t separate his personal feelings from his professional decisions .
Matthias noticed everyone’s attitude but did not press further . He simply asked , “ What project has Quentin been doing lately ? ”
Yandel Sanchez , who worked with Quentin , provided a concise overview of the project’s content .
Then , Matthias turned to Celeste . “ So , can you please take over the remainder of Quentin’s work ? ”
Celeste agreed . “ Sure . ”
Afterward , she graciously addressed the others , saying , “ I kindly ask for your guidance in the days to come . ” The others smiled and responded courteously , but none dared to offer any guidance . At this point , all they could do was hope that Celeste would prove her competence and got rely entirely on them .

While the group remained largely unbothered , Yandel , who had previously worked with Quentin , faced difficulties .
His expression wasn’t the best , but he managed to respond to Celeste graciously , “ Everything you need is here . Feel free to reach out if you have any questions . ”
Celeste replied , “ Alright . Thank you . ”
Yandel was at a loss for words . But , on the bright side , her attitude was pretty good .
