Bryson's assistant didn't know that both Celeste and Matthias were Zachary's students.
So, when Bryson commented that Matthias was lucky to be with Celeste, the assistant added, "Last night in an interview, Mr. Yoder said that as a student of Mr. Newman, he had always been held to very high standards.
"Mr. Newman constantly made him stay on top of the latest developments in the field and required him to thoroughly understand every technical breakthrough.
"Mr. Newman would also fill in any gaps in his knowledge based on his research.
"Ms. Rodriguez is already quite capable. After getting together with Mr. Yoder, she also has his guidance. That means she'll be able to grow even faster.
"So really, being with Mr. Yoder is a good thing for Ms. Rodriguez."
That much was true. However…
One of Rodney's students then said, "So what you're saying is—the insights Ms. Rodriguez just shared were largely a combination of the result of Mr. Yoder's and Mr. Newman's research?"
In other words, Celeste wasn't quite as impressive as they had just assumed.
Although the student didn't directly say so, everyone present—including Wynn—understood the underlying implication.
Rodney, realizing this, was momentarily stunned and visibly disappointed. He had genuinely thought Celeste was a rare, all-around genius in AI. He hadn't expected this to be the case.
Trevor also paused for a moment.
Seeing both Rodney and Trevor's reactions, Wynn's lips curved slightly.
So, it turned out that what Celeste had said earlier was really just a repackaging of the technical analyses done by Matthias and Zachary.
No wonder Bryson and Rodney had mistakenly thought she was some kind of AI genius.
As for Trevor, although he hadn't praised Celeste as openly as Bryson and Rodney, he had been present when Celeste spoke about recent developments in the field.
He, too, had probably been impressed by her insights.
But judging from his reaction now, it seemed he had also realized that Celeste's so-called brilliance was actually just riding on the coattails of Matthias and Zachary.
In reality, Celeste didn't have that level of ability.
But Bryson knew the fact that Celeste was also Zachary's student.
He'd previously had a discussion with her on the developments of AI and was also aware that YodaVision's now-famous programming language had been developed under her leadership.
So, he knew very clearly that Celeste's technical abilities were absolutely strong. It wouldn't be totally unthinkable that she had come up with all those insights she shared earlier.
Since she was Zachary's student, such brilliance wasn't entirely impossible.
Matthias returned from his business trip that afternoon.
The lawyer informed them that regarding InnovaTech's compensation to YodaVision, Wynn had already paid 200 million dollars. There were still over 100 million left, which would take some more time.
Matthias curled his lip. "Isn't Trevor always generous with Wynn? Buying her a house without hesitation, giving her a company as a gift, and all.
"After the contract termination, he even immediately helped her secure a partnership with DataWing Inc.
"Our total compensation is just over 300 million, and yet it's taking this long to raise the money? Are they doing this on purpose?"
Celeste guessed, "Probably not. I think the Locket family doesn't want to trouble Trevor anymore—they intend to cover this amount themselves."
That did seem likely.
Matthias clicked his tongue and said, "Given the Locket family's strength, it's not easy for them to come up with two to three hundred million in a short time while still keeping all their projects running.
"Still, the fact that Wynn insists on paying us back herself... Well, those two really are devoted to each other."
Celeste thought so too.
But honestly, she had already known this very clearly back when Wynn had risked her life to take a knife for Trevor and when Trevor insisted on divorcing her.

Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
I know everyone will not agree with me and I also know that Trevor is a trash and all but I want Trevor and Celeste to get back together. They should be the end game and for that to happen Trevor should start working hard for that second chance....
So we're going to go on for another 15 chapter's about jordan's temper tantrum with neither of the parents asking her what's wrong..stop milking it. The only reason i'm still reading is because i cant leave a book unfinished. What I'm pissed about is the book started with promise and turned into a circus....
The story should just come to an end and the writer should give their reader the closure they deserve. There's no point in keeping the story going. It's been the same since the start. Not has changed. The initial story plot was, that Celeste and Trevor are getting devorce and still after 800 + chapter, they are still heading for a devorce....
Don’t Shaws and Lockets reflect ever on themselves? Every difficult situation, they look forward to Wynn to ask for Trevor to help. Initially the focus of the novel was on how Wynn is so accomplished blah blah and now - she is just a useless person, incapable of anything. Irritating storyline...
I'm starting to get bored and I can't predict exactly where the story is headed....
Beck being the only actual adult to ask a child what’s wrong...
Can we get to the point its stagnant and I am unimpressed,I don't care about the company being in trouble nor the inner thoughts of others. Come on now....
Its a good thing both jordan parents are loaded. They going to spend a lot for Jordan therapy. 😂...
Wynn has no shame. And keeping the staff well beyond their work hours is an a-hole move....
I am again fed up with the storyline..it is just exhausting to keep reading only one side of story - where people are living in their own righteous bubble and assumptions....
