Matthias's parents didn't sound like they were just being polite when they talked about Celeste. They genuinely seemed to be fond of her.
That surprised Narcissa. She frowned as she couldn't understand why they liked Celeste so much.
Sure, Celeste had published a few impressive academic papers and did seem capable, but there were plenty of people more outstanding than her. No matter how she looked at it, Celeste didn't seem like the ideal choice as their daughter-in-law.
Not long after Narcissa left, Matthias received a call from her older brother, Nathan Lackspur.
"I've already heard about what happened between my sister and Ms. Rodriguez. This matter was indeed Cissa's fault.
"To express our apology, I'd like to invite the two of you to dinner and let Cissa apologize properly to Ms. Rodriguez in person. May I ask if you are free?"
Like his sister, Nathan believed neither Matthias nor Celeste truly wanted to miss out on their project. In his view, once Celeste had vented her anger, Matthias would naturally move forward with cooperating with them.
And since Celeste had already made things difficult for his sister, even if she still held some grudges, she should be willing to put their personal grievances aside temporarily for the sake of cooperation.
So, although Nathan framed the dinner as an apology, what he really wanted was to discuss the cooperation with Matthias.
He didn't say it outright, but how could Matthias not understand his purpose?
Instead of contacting Celeste directly to solve the issue, they had approached him because they assumed he could make Celeste compromise for the sake of YodaVision.
Matthias smiled lightly. "Sorry, but the conflict between your sister and Cel isn't something I'm personally involved in. So, I can't make decisions on her behalf.
"If you want to mediate, it's better to speak to Cel directly. I wouldn't want to overstep."
Nathan laughed softly to himself, thinking Celeste really did have quite a temper. He could understand that much.
But in his opinion, it was a little too personal for her to cling so stubbornly to this issue, and she couldn't separate work from private matters.
Naturally, he was displeased, but since he was the one asking for help, he could only continue sincerely. "This matter was indeed Cissa's fault. I apologize on her behalf. Ms. Rodriguez, if you are still not satisfied, I can have Cissa personally apologize to you—"
"Mr. Lackspur, I've received your apology, but I don't accept it. Likewise, even if your sister personally apologizes to me, I still won't accept it."
Before Nathan could continue, Celeste added, "I still have work to do. Goodbye, Mr. Lackspur."
With that, she hung up directly before Nathan could respond.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Somehow i am relieved today to see no updates than to be disappointed with yet another irritating show of everyone else's POV but the main characters...
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....
