Chapter 499
A little over ten minutes later, Celeste went to the restroom with
a few others.
She had just pushed the door open and, seeing someone inside,
was about to apologize and leave when a hand suddenly
covered her mouth and nose. Before she could react, her
consciousness blurred.
The person who had subdued Celeste was quickly joined by a
woman waiting outside.
Together, they made a hasty disguise for Celeste and supported
her out of the restroom. After carefully avoiding YodaVision's
people, they managed to get outside.
Just as they were about to put her into a car with others waiting,
their path was blocked.
At that moment, Trevor's phone rang
After listening to the caller, he rose and told the two executives
beside him, "Something's come up. Let's catch up another time.”
Jacob, seeing him leave, followed.
By the time they reached outside the bar, the people who had
tried to take Celeste were already subdued.

Jacob was startled when he saw her unconscious, but he quickly
grasped the situation
What he couldn't understand was—when had Trevor arranged all
this?

The men waiting outside stepped forward respectfully. "Mr.
Fleming, we've stopped them."
"Mm." Trevor glanced at the unconscious Celeste, walked over,
and without another word, took her into his arms and carried her
to the car.
Jacob paused, then quickly followed him in.
No sooner had Trevor settled Celeste in the car than her phone
rang from her bag.
It turned out the two engineers from YodaVision, who had gone
to the restroom with her, grew worried after she didn't come out
for several minutes.
After searching and not finding her, they immediately called
Trevor didn't answer.
Holding Celeste against him, he adjusted her posture, then
simply ended the call.

The two engineers, even more uneasy, immediately called
Matthias.
Matthias, alarmed, hurriedly dialed Celeste's number himself.
This time, Trevor answered.
"Cel, you-" Matthias started, only to be cut off.
"She fainted. I'm taking her back to the hotel," Trevor said flatly.
Matthias froze. "Trevor?"
"Mm." Then he added, "I'll hang up now."
"You—" Matthias tried to speak, but the line had already gone
dead
In the front seat, Jacob kept an eye on the back. Seeing Trevor
still holding Celeste, he opened his mouth to say something, but
the divider slowly rose, cutting off his view.
Jacob stared in surprise, at a loss for words.
The hotel wasn't far, but not close either. The journey took about
half an hour.
Trevor carried Celeste out.
Jacob noticed her clothes were neat, only her lipstick had
smudged slightly.

It looked as though she had been kissed—or perhaps it was just
smeared during the struggle. He couldn't be sure. 1
Without explanation, Trevor took her straight upstairs. Jacob
had no choice but to follow behind.
