Chapter 752
Neither Celeste nor Trevor minded, and they brought Kieran along as well.
After getting into the car, the staff member receiving them smiled and asked Celeste, “Why didn’t Mr. Yoder come with you?”
“He’s on another business trip. He’ll arrive later.”
By the time they reached the hotel, it was already very late.
Celeste, Kieran, and Trevor entered the elevator together. Celeste and Trevor’s rooms were on the same floor, while Kieran’s was not.
So, Kieran got off the elevator first, leaving only Celeste and Trevor inside.
The two of them glanced at each other.
When Celeste met his gaze, she quickly looked away. Trevor also remained silent.
When the elevator reached their floor, and they stepped out, Trevor suddenly spoke. “Good night.”
Celeste said nothing. She just dragged her luggage behind her toward her room. Then she swiped her card and entered her room.
At that moment, Matthias had just gotten off the plane.
Zachary had other arrangements, and since they still had other activities to attend to the next day and needed to wake up early, Celeste simply put down her luggage, washed up, and went to bed.
The next morning, after waking up, she contacted Matthias. After getting ready, she left her room.
Matthias was staying on the same floor.
Just as Celeste stepped out of her room, he happened to come out as well.
Seeing her, he smiled and said, “Prof said he might not be able to join the debate. He told us not to wait for him.”
Celeste nodded. She was just about to respond when Trevor also walked toward the elevator from the other side.
Seeing them, Trevor actually smiled. “Morning.”
“Morning,” Matthias answered.
After that, the three of them entered the elevator in silence. Not long after, Kieran also got into the elevator.
Normally, ordinary audience members were not eligible to attend the debate. However, Kieran somehow managed to obtain an invitation to the club.
When he entered the elevator and saw the three of them, he paused for a moment before stepping inside.
Celeste had taken extra care with her appearance that day. Her makeup and styling were not overly elaborate, but she still looked exceptionally striking.
After entering the elevator, Kieran was quite straightforward and said to her, “You look beautiful today.”
Celeste knew how Kieran felt about her.
Perhaps because Trevor was also present, and Kieran probably didn’t know about her relationship with Trevor, Celeste felt somewhat awkward hearing him say that.
Still, she replied, “Thank you.”
No matter what, Celeste was still Trevor’s wife. Yet Trevor didn’t show any unpleasant reaction when another man openly complimented her in front of him.
After that, Kieran continued finding topics to chat with Celeste and Matthias. Trevor remained quiet at the side, not joining the conversation.
By the time they arrived at the debate club, quite a number of people were already there.
As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they immediately ran into many people. A few people took the initiative to come over and greet them after seeing them
Trevor then separated from them.
Celeste remained one of the most talked-about figures at the event.
She had always been well-liked, and although Zachary hadn’t arrived, many people present-including members of the judiciary and expert committees, as well
representatives from the
organizers were either friends or
acquaintances of Zachary.
So, shortly after they arrived, many people came over to speak with them.
Most of the people there were top figures in their respective fields. Even at the military base, it was rare to have the chance to meet so many
influential experts from different
industries at once.
Both Celeste and Matthias were delighted. They actively exchanged greetings and conversations with these prominent figures.
Although Zachary had previously said that he might not attend, he still came halfway through the event.
