The Breaking Point of Love Novel

Chapter 408 Celeste and Dane quoted extensively and engaged in a lively , back - and - forth discussion . Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the more Dane spoke with Celeste , the more excited and impressed he became . In fact , during their conversation , he even discovered a few gaps in his own knowledge . But that only delighted him . He couldn't help but say , " I knew I wasn't wrong - Rodriguez , you really are better than me .

" His remark shocked those standing nearby and listening in . After all , Tanner was a renowned figure in the AI industry . So , for him to openly admit that someone as young as Celeste possessed such a deep reservoir of knowledge that outmatched him came as a surprise . Only Matthias gave a subtle , knowing smile . Wynn was also quietly listening at the side . Linda couldn't understand a word of what Tanner and Celeste were talking about due to her limited knowledge .

Seeing that their conversation was still ongoing with no signs of stopping , she grew impatient . " What's there to talk about for this long ? " Wynn said nothing , but her fingers holding the wine glass were gradually turning pale from the force of her grip .

Though Ceravelle's AI field had made great strides in recent years , and professors like Bryson and Rodney had earned significant reputations domestically , there was still a considerable gap when compared to experts like Tanner and Cayden . If Wynn had assumed that Celeste had merely picked up a few skills while tagging along with Matthias back at the Quendall University symposium , now she no longer believed that . Celeste's knowledge was too extensive .

To be able to engage with Tanner like this - and even at times suppress him in discussion - how could she achieve that in just under a year ? This meant that Celeste must have already been quite capable before joining YodaVision . In fact , that paper of hers - there was a very real possibility that it truly was her own original work . If that were true , then in terms of professional expertise , Celeste had long since surpassed her . But , how was that even possible ?

1 Celeste had barely graduated from university before joining the Fleming Group as a secretary . How could she possibly be so highly skilled ? " Wynn ? " At that moment , Linda finally noticed Wynn's pale expression . " What's wrong ? You don't look so good . " Wynn gripped her glass tightly , took a sip of wine , and said nothing . Kieran had long known that Celeste was exceptional . But tonight , she had once again shattered his expectations .

As he stood listening to her conversation with Tanner , a friend of his suddenly leaned in and whispered , " I looked into her for you . This Ms. Rodriguez isn't a native of Baumond . " Her parents are apparently divorced , and her mother has mental health issues . She moved here with her uncle's family over a decade ago . " A few years back , her uncle's business went downhill , and no one really stepped up to help . They don't seem to have many friends or connections here ..

" Their business has picked up a bit recently , but in a place like Baumond , they still don't rank anywhere near the top . " Seeing Kieran glance sideways at him , clearly urging him to get to the point , his friend smiled and continued , " As for who she married … It's probably because the Rodriguez family is practically invisible in the social scene . " No one seems to know a thing , even though I've asked around quite a bit . "
