Although they hadn't had many gatherings over the past few months, in Miles' mind, Wynn and Trevor must still be seeing each other often.
So, now that everyone had finally gotten together, he deliberately teased them after seeing the two of them start talking about their own matters.
At his words, Wynn's gaze dimmed for a split second, but just as quickly, she smiled and said frankly, "What do you mean every day? Trevor and I haven't actually been seeing each other much lately."
She said this, knowing that sometimes, telling the truth made people less likely to believe it. And even if they did, they would simply assume both of them had been busy—not that there might be problems in their relationship.
Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Miles laughed. "Alright, alright, I won't interrupt you two then. Go on, continue."
Soon, the topic shifted.
…
That night, when Celeste got home after finishing work and was about to take a shower, she received a message from Beck.
He said that Shanice had returned to Baumond and missed her, hoping to meet.
Seeing the message, Celeste thought of her free time the next noon and agreed.
…
The next day, she arrived on time at the restaurant.
Shanice clearly liked her very much.
Even though they hadn't been in much contact over the past six months, there was no sense of distance. The moment she saw Celeste, she happily ran over. "Ms. Rodriguez!"
Shanice had grown a little taller.
Celeste bent down to hug her, then handed her the gift she had prepared.
After that, Shanice chattered endlessly, sharing all sorts of interesting things that had happened recently.
Celeste sat beside her, listening attentively.
Beck just quietly passed them the menu.
After ordering, Shanice got a little thirsty from talking too much. So she took a sip of water before continuing. At that moment, Beck smiled silently at Celeste.
Celeste simply smiled back and gently cupped Shanice's cheek.
Even after returning home, her mood hadn't improved.
Wynn noticed, but didn't really care. She only asked casually, "What happened?"
Patricia answered offhandedly, "We ran into Beck."
Wynn's gaze turned cold slightly at the mention of Beck.
However, Patricia didn't notice and continued, "Celeste and his niece were there too. The three of them were having a meal together—it seemed like a private arrangement. They looked quite close."
Wynn's hand paused mid-motion as she drank her water.
Patricia had only mentioned it casually. So, right after that, she picked up the remote and turned on the TV.
Wynn lowered her eyes.
She knew her family reacted this way only because they had never considered the possibility of anything between Celeste and Beck.
If they knew—

Applause for Matthias but I’d love to see Celeste stand up for herself too and all this is going on with Jo right there, if she really doesn’t care what people think about her she should take Jo out of there. They can all continue their shenanigans...
