Chapter 522
Nadine disliked Wynn, and she equally disliked Trevor. 2
After mocking Wynn, she turned to Trevor with a smile and said, “
I’ve always heard people say that you and Ms. Locket are deeply
in love, that no matter where you go, you always bring Ms.
Locket along. 4
“Seeing it today, I realize the rumors really weren’t exaggerated
Although Nadine was clearly being sarcastic, the way she said it
with a smile would make anyone unaware think she was
genuinely praising Trevor and Wynn’s relationship. 2
Just then, someone happened to come over to chat with them
Hearing this, that person smiled and chimed in, “Yes, Mr.
Fleming really is wonderful to Ms. Locket.” 1
Nadine cast Trevor a cold glance. She didn’t respond, but she
didn’t continue either. 2
After all, today was a big celebratory day for YodaVision. If the
banquet turned chaotic because of the two of them, it wouldn’t
be worth it. 2
Matthias and Celeste thought the same.
Matthias forced a smile and said, “Mr. Fleming, my mentor and I
have something to take care of, so we’ll excuse ourselves.” 1
Wynn naturally understood the meaning behind Nadine’s earlier
quip of “I’ve long heard of you.” Her expression didn’t look too
good hearing that. 4
Although Nadine had mocked Wynn, she hadn’t spared Trevor
either. Yet on Trevor’s face, there was no trace of anger.
After Matthias spoke, he maintained his smile and politeness,
saying, “It’s fine, you go ahead.” With that, he gave a polite nod,
then left together with Wynn. 1
After they had left for a while, Nadine lowered her voice and
asked Celeste, “How long until your mandatory waiting period is
Celeste answered truthfully, “Less than half a month.” 2
Nadine pursed her lips and said, “This time, make sure nothing
goes wrong.
“Yes,” Celeste replied.
From what Zachary had implied, if there were no unexpected
incidents, she probably wouldn’t need to go to the base again for
the next month.
“That’s good.” Nadine felt relieved.
She then pinched Celeste’s cheek lightly and said, “Once your
divorce is finalized, I’ll celebrate with you.” 7
Celeste smiled, “Okay.” 2
The banquet went on.
After that, Celeste and Matthias were mostly busy greeting
guests, their figures constantly moving through the hall.
Trevor and Wynn didn’t come over to bother them again.
Because there were always people coming to talk to him, Trevor
was actually quite busy too.
His mood that night didn’t seem the least bit dampened by the
cold reception from Zachary and Nadine. He chatted happily
with people, occasionally glancing to the side.
And Wynn stayed by his side the whole time.
Jorge didn’t deliberately try to chat with Wynn; however, he had
kept himself near her. +
After talking with someone for a while, he gave Wynn a couple
of glances, then turned back, ready to continue his conversation.
He noticed that at some point, Celeste and Matthias had also
come over to the same area.
He looked over and was just about to withdraw his gaze when Original content can be found at Find~Novel.net
he caught sight of Trevor’s gaze.
At first, he didn’t pay much attention, but then he noticed
something, paused, and turned his head again to look at Trevor.
And in that moment, he realized—Trevor was looking at Celeste.
Noticing this, his expression darkened.
But then, Trevor withdrew his gaze.
Seeing that, Jorge wondered if he was just overthinking it. After
all, Trevor truly did treat Wynn very well.
Still, he kept his guard up, sneaking glances at Trevor from time
It didn’t take long before he realized he hadn’t been overthinking
at all—because while talking with others, Trevor’s gaze once
again fell on Celeste. 19
