The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 419
It wasn't just Wynn and Howard. When the other bidders saw Celeste and Matthias, they more or less realized that all their efforts had likely been for nothing.
And that was exactly the case.
As everyone waited, the results were quickly announced. The smart traffic project was awarded to YodaVision.
Celeste and Matthias weren't surprised at all by the outcome. They had more important matters to attend to and had no intention of lingering.
As the two of them walked past Howard and Wynn without even sparing them a glance, the expressions on the father and daughter's faces—which were already grim—grew even darker.
Since moving to Baumond, the Locket family's company had been running fairly well thanks to Trevor's support.
Because of Wynn's connection to him, many people in their social circle were aware of their company.
However, that recognition was mostly limited to within their circle. They had yet to establish a solid reputation on a broader, public level.
The main reason for that had been a lack of competitive core technology.
Now that they'd finally made a breakthrough, they had pinned all their hopes on winning this smart traffic project.
If they succeeded, it would have been a turning point in both recognition and credibility for Locket Tech.
Their entire team had worked tirelessly for over a month, pouring in massive amounts of manpower and resources. They had truly believed the project was already in the bag. But in the end…
After Celeste and Matthias left, Howard and Wynn remained seated for a long while.
Back at home, the rest of the Lockets and the Shaws had also been paying close attention to this bid. Before long, Linda couldn't hold back and called Wynn.
"Wynn, how is it? Did we win the bid?"
Wynn answered calmly, "No."
"No?" Linda frowned. "How could that be? I mean, I know some of the other companies bidding had decent strength, but we—"
After all, this was a major project—one that concerned the future of the Locket family's company.
This wasn't just personal. It was a high-stakes matter. They couldn't let Celeste cause trouble like this.
"It was bad enough when she tried to interfere between Wynn and Mr. Newman, and then again with Matthias. But now she's even jeopardizing the future of our company! If she keeps targeting us like this—"
"I know," Howard said. "I'll find a chance to talk to her."
The matter was too important to ignore.
In fact, when Celeste and Matthias were about to leave the venue earlier, he had nearly called out to her. But there were too many people around at the time, and it hadn't been appropriate.
…
The next day, when Celeste arrived at YodaVision and got out of her car in the parking lot, Howard also stepped out of his car and called out to her, "Cel."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Uhuh. And what, pray tell, is it that you know to be doing Trevor?...
Mr. Lincoln, you never raised your son. He is not a real man... When I see him, I just remember the line from the song that says "I guess no one ever told you how to be a real man."...
Did Trevor shut down the internet? If he does it, he's truly the biggest whore I've ever seen in my life... This guy raised my blood pressure throughout 800 chapters...
ok im done im not reading this trash anymore its repetitive celeste finally speaks and its less than 5 words.this isn't good at all and now we're getting the netizens pov but not hers. EVERYBODY HAS AN OPINION EXCEPT HER AND TREVOR...
I’m not liking where this is headed.. I’m getting the sense that the author is following the revenging husband storyline and Trevor did all this just to avenge his wife...
Isn't this a company that Celeste and Matthias work for? This will be a fatal blow to those scoundrels....
I'm so excited for tomorrow! I wonder what happened to Jo... What is the story behind that court summons?...
A court summons? Oh my God, what happened?...
Here we go again…drip-drop. One page a day instead of the promised 5 Chapters and even that stops suddenly so we never know if the story will advance. I swear this author is writing the new page on their lunch break and laughing at us when we get frustrated....
I feel like reading the novel from everyone else's perspective, but the main characters. There has never been a glimpse on Trevor's side of thoughts or intentions. He feels like a ghost in this whole storyline. Although i am glad that Mathias revealed the truth about Celeste, but it still feels empty without main character's thoughts or feelings or voices being shared....
