Chapter 430 Beck chased after Celeste, but he was still too late.
By the time he reached the elevator, Celeste had already taken it downstairs.
Elsewhere, Trevor was chatting with someone when his phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and answered.
After a while, he hung up, just as Wynn walked over and asked, “Who was it?
You sounded pretty happy.” “A college classmate.
He’s in Baumond on a business trip.
We haven’t seen each other in ages, so he wanted to catch up over a meal.
I happened to be free, so I agreed.” 2 Then Trevor asked, “Want to come along?” When she met Trevor, he had already graduated.
She had seen a few of his college friends in social settings, but they all seemed to just be acquaintances.
This one, however, seemed to have a closer relationship with him.
She nodded and said, “Sure.” Trevor chatted with a few more people, then left with Wynn for the restaurant where they were meeting.
His classmate, an expatriate named Chester Leighton, was already there.
He was quite good–looking.
When he saw them arrive, he stood up and greeted them, then smiled and asked awkwardly, “Is this… your girlfriend?” Then, he praised her.
“She’s beautiful.
You two look great together.” Trevor introduced Wynn to him.
3 Chester, curious, asked how they met.

Wynn smiled and said, “In Andostan.
I had just finished class at the time…” When she finished, Chester gave an exaggerated “Wow,” and said, “A talented woman!
Trevor, your taste hasn’t changed at all 3 “I heard the young woman you liked before also skipped grades to get into college.
She was super impressive too.
Back then, people said you two even got married before she graduated…” Wynn’s smile faded a little.
6 So did Trevor’s.
He said, “Chester, you’re mistaken.
The person you saw back then wasn’t my girlfriend.” “She wasn’t?” Chester was a bit puzzled.
“Really?
I only met her once.
I happened to be back in the country for something, so I didn’t really follow up.
I guess I misunderstood.” Trevor shifted the topic.
“What do you feel like eating?” “I haven’t been to Baumond in a long time.
You’re the local–yourtall.
I trust you.‘ Trevor smiled and didn’t press the matter further.
Chester, being outgoing, continued chatting and turned to Wynn to ask what kind of work she did.
Wynn replied, “I’m working on autonomous vehicles currently.” “Wow, so you’re an engineer?
That’s impressive.” Wynn smiled modestly and replied truthfully, “I wouldn’t say I’m that impressive.
It was actually Trevor who started the company.
Later on…” She explained the backstory.
Usually, when she told people this, their reaction would be like “Wow, Trevor must really care about you.” But Chester was a bit different.
Chapter 430 He just looked at her.
Though he didn’t say anything, it seemed he no longer saw her as exceptional as he’d initially thought.
There was a faint look of disappointment in his eyes as he glanced at Trevor, as if questioning his judgment or perhaps thinking she wasn’t good enough for him.
10 Wynn’s smile faded a little.
Realizing he had let his reaction show too clearly, Chester cleared his throat and asked, “How’s the company doing now?” Trevor replied, “We recently had a technical breakthrough, and the company’s value made a significant leap.” 3 “Oh, I see…” Chester smiled and said, “Well, with you there, it’s no surprise.
Running a tech company and increasing its value shouldn’t be too hard for you.” 9
