Chapter 541
Wynn and her group left the campsite at noon that day. Celeste
and Matthias left a little later in the afternoon.
After the camping trip, on Monday, Celeste officially returned to
Since Trevor had gone abroad for a business trip, Jordyn came
over to the Rodriguez residence the day after Celeste’s trip
After a busy week, on the following Tuesday afternoon, Celeste
received a call from Jordyn.
She said Trevor was back, and she’d be going home that night
instead of staying with Celeste.
Celeste said, “Okay, got it.”
After hanging up, she sat for a moment. The mandatory waiting
period for her and Trevor’s divorce had already ended last week.
Now that he was back from his business trip, it was about time
to get the divorce.
She glanced at her phone, but there was no message from
Thinking he was probably busy, she put the phone down and
went back to work.
Later, she checked her phone two or three more times, but even
after she finished working—past nine at night—there was still no
message from him
She stared at her phone for a while, then typed and sent him a
message. “I’m free tomorrow.”
But even by the time she went to bed, there was no reply.
It wasn’t until the next morning, as she was getting ready for
work, that a message finally came through.
“Sorry, I don’t have time today.”
Celeste looked at it and picked up her phone to reply when
another message popped up.
“I’ll contact you when I’m free.”
Celeste paused for a moment before replying.
“As soon as possible.”
“Okay.” He replied shortly.
After that, she put down her phone and went to work.
She went to Fleming Group to handle some matters, and at
noon, went out to lunch with several people from the company.
Just as they entered the restaurant, they ran into the Locket
Quite a few people from the Fleming Group recognized Wynn,
and immediately greeted her, “Ms. Locket.”
Wynn nodded slightly, glanced at Celeste, and smiled, “Out for
lunch with your partners?”
“Yes,” one of them said. “This is Ms. Rodriguez from YodaVision.
I believe you’ve met before.”
Wynn nodded again, only giving Celeste a perfunctory glance
before looking away.
Celeste could feel the eyes of the Lockets and the Shaws
lingering on her, but she acted as if she hadn’t noticed.
Wynn soon said, “I won’t keep you all, then. Enjoy your lunch.”
“Ms. Locket, you’re too kind.”
Because Trevor valued Wynn highly, the Fleming Group
executives were always polite to her, never daring to be casual
The Lockets and the Shaws went into their private room first,
under the polite gaze of those from the Fleming Group.
Once inside, as soon as they sat down, Linda immediately
asked, “Wynn, since Trev’s busy today, does that mean he still
hasn’t set a time to divorce that bitch yet?”
Just like last time, they’d been counting down to the end of the
divorce mandatory waiting period.
But when it finally ended last week, Trevor happened to be away
on business.
Now that he was back, they thought he’d handle the divorce right
But when they asked last night, Wynn told them he was still busy
and it might take a few more days.
That answer disappointed them, but there was nothing they
could do except wait.
