After they finished playing golf , Celeste and the others still had other plans .
Trevor and Wynn had joined midway , and perhaps guessing that Celeste and the others had other arrangements that they might not be suited to join , Trevor took the initiative to say , “ We have some other plans later , so we won’t keep interrupting everyone’s fun . ”
Hearing this , Rowan and Theodore didn’t insist on keeping them and said , “ Is that so ? That’s fine . Let’s meet up again next time when we’re free . ”
Trevor smiled and nodded before leaving with Wynn .
Matthias had actually been a bit worried that Trevor and Wynn might tag along for their meal afterwards .
Seeing Trevor leave on his own initiative , he felt a little relieved and whispered to Celeste , “ At least he knows when to back off . ”
Celeste smiled and hummed a response .
After they had walked a distance , Trevor finally asked , “ Upset ? ” 1
Having stumbled twice today , Wynn was indeed feeling down . Especially seeing how much Rowan and the others liked Celeste .
Even though she knew they were being fooled by Celeste’s outward appearance , it still left a sour taste in her mouth .
But she didn’t say any of that directly . She just forced a smile and said , “ I really made a fool of myself today . I do feel a bit discouraged . Looks like I still have a lot to learn . ”
Trevor said , “ You have your own strengths and advantages too . Don’t take these small things too seriously . ” Hearing that , Wynn felt a little better .
It was clear from today that Celeste reacted very quickly and thought things through very thoroughly . Honestly , this had surprised her quite a bit .
She could also tell that Trevor seemed a little surprised by Celeste’s performance as well and seemed to think a bit more highly of her because of it .
But that was all .
She had noticed earlier that even though Trevor was impressed , he didn’t seem particularly interested in Celeste . 1 And despite her poor performance today , Trevor clearly didn’t care about it . In his eyes , she was still just as charming .
In fact , they didn’t even have any real plans after this .
It was obvious Trevor had suggested leaving because he noticed she was in a bad mood and didn’t want her to feel
worse .
Thinking of this , the gloom in her heart completely cleared away .
Charm 580
That day , around 3:00 pm , after having tea with Rowan the others , Celeste returned to the Rifrightes residence .
As soon as Jordyn saw her , she ran over and hugged her tity . “ Mom , you’re back . ”
“ Yes . ”
When she had found out that Celeste was going out that morning without taking her along , Jordyn had actually been a little upset .
But now she seemed to be in a pretty good mood /
It looked like even without Celeste around , she had still had a good time at home .
Jordyn was about to say something when her phone suddenly rang
It was a call from Trevor .
Jordyn quickly answered , “ Dad ? ”
Celeste didn’t know what Trevor said on the other end , but Jordyn responded , “ Okay , I got it ! ”
After hanging up , she turned to Celeste and said , “ Mom , Dad’s taking me out to play . He’s sending someone over to pick me up soon . ”
Celeste’s expression remained calm . She didn’t try to stop her and simply said , “ Okay , I got it . ”
Jordyn actually felt a little reluctant to leave Celeste , but the place Trevor was taking her to was somewhere she had always wanted to go .
So , when the driver Trevor sent arrived , she still got in the car and left .
After she left , Celeste went upstairs to deal with her own work .
On Tuesday , Celeste went to Fleming Tech on behalf of Matthias .
Upon hearing that she had arrived , Zeke personally came downstairs to greet her and Candice .
Zeke was very polite , “ Ms. Rodriguez , this way , please . ”
Celeste nodded .
She thought that the meeting would be arranged in one of Fleming Tech’s conference rooms . But instead , Zeke led her directly to Trevor’s office .
When she used to work as a secretary here , she had occasionally been “ lucky ” enough to enter Trevor’s office . She was actually quite familiar with it
It hadn’t even been a year since she was last here , but it already felt like a lifetime ago .
Trevor was already inside .
When he saw her come in , he looked up from his documents , stood up , and said politely , “ You’re here . Please have a seat . ”
