Chapter 604
This was something Ruby didn't even need to spell out. Wynn
and Lilian both understood it.
Linda, however, only realized what Ruby meant several seconds
after she spoke. 4
For a moment, she became even angrier. "T-That's impossible. It
has to be just a coincidence." 1
Ruby didn't speak again right away, but she glanced in Wynn's
direction.
Previously, they had all believed that Trevor had deep feelings
for Wynn. As long as she contacted him more, she would
definitely be able to reconcile with him.
But according to what Ruby knew, Wynn had already taken the
initiative to contact Trevor over the past two days, yet Trevor
had said he was busy and couldn't get away...
He was too busy to see Wynn, but could make time to have
dinner with Celeste... 3
That being the case, who mattered more to Trevor now, Celeste
or Wynn, seemed painfully obvious.
Linda was angry and unwilling to believe it, but she had also

thought of this.
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she was to
accept it.
She said urgently, "Trev wasn't eating alone with that bitch. How
do you know it wasn't Jordyn who wanted to eat together, and
he couldn't refuse her, so he had to eat with Celeste? After all,
we all know how much Trev dotes on Jordyn." 4
That was indeed a possibility.
But what they feared was the opposite—that Trevor had used

Jordyn as an excuse in order to see Celeste.
Lilian and Wynn still didn't say anything,
Lilian's gaze was deep and unreadable, as if she were thinking
about something. #
The next day, Celeste returned to work as usual
That evening, she attended a banquet with Matthias. 1
After entering the banquet hall and chatting briefly with the host,
they spotted Wynn and the others.
However, Trevor was nowhere to be seen.
----
Celeste expressionlessly looked away.
Matthias also noticed them and curled his lips. "What bad luck." 1
They were there that day to discuss a collaboration.
Matthias still had other matters to handle, and this project had
always been handled mainly by Celeste.
Seeing her constantly talking business with people, Matthias
thoughtfully brought her drinks and handed her tissues to wipe
her mouth
Wynn, Linda, and the others had noticed Celeste and Matthias
the moment they entered the banquet.
Seeing how attentive, considerate, and gentle Matthias was
toward Celeste, Linda and Ruby both looked displeased.
Ruby said sourly, "They look like they're getting along quite well."
“I really don't know what's so good about her." 2
Seeing Matthias treating Celeste so well, and thinking about how
Trevor also seemed to have developed feelings for Celeste
again, Linda spoke with both jealousy and resentment.
“She may be good-looking, but isn't Wynn prettier than her? More
outstanding than her?" 4

Ruby also felt that her niece was more outstanding. 4
Wynn listened to their conversation without saying anything.
Lilian didn't speak either.
Just then, Beck arrived. 2
Ruby and Wynn noticed him immediately
Because Beck had rejected Linda before, Ruby now felt awkward
whenever she saw him.
Linda dared not look directly at Beck. When she saw him, her
eyes immediately reddened.
Yet when he appeared, it was impossible not to keep looking at
him.
Lilian, on the other hand, remained calm. When she saw Beck,
she greeted him gently, as usual. "Beck." 1
Beck didn't expect them to be there. 1
He slowed his steps slightly and greeted her, "Mrs. Locket.”
After that, he nodded to Wynn. Then, after glancing at Linda and
Ruby, he walked toward Celeste. 5
