Although Wynn's emotions were in turmoil, she quickly forced herself to calm down.
Hearing someone interrupt, she paused and looked toward the speaker. He was a stranger.
Noticing Philip's displeasure, the man immediately put on an apologetic smile. "My apologies, Professor Lancaster. I was just curious. I'm sorry for interrupting your conversation."
He was a guest after all.
Though Philip had never met the man before, it wasn't appropriate to make an issue of it. "It's fine."
Then, seeing that nearly everyone around them had turned to look over, he realized they were all wondering whether he truly intended to take Celeste as his student.
He smiled. Then, his gaze settled briefly on Celeste before sweeping across the crowd.
After that, he and Thomas walked onto the stage.
Looking out at the guests, Philip said with a smile, "Thank you all for coming to celebrate the anniversary of my institute.
"Regarding my decision to take on a student, I had originally planned to come onstage later and ask Ms. Rodriguez in front of everyone. But since the news is already out, I'd like to ask all of you to witness this moment instead."
He turned toward Celeste. "Ms. Rodriguez, I'm calling you 'Ms. Rodriguez' for now, but I hope I'll one day have the chance to call you 'Cel.' I've noticed that's what your friends all call you.
"Cel, I sincerely wish to take you as my student. Would you be willing to acknowledge me as your mentor?"
All eyes immediately fell on Celeste.
Most of the guests looked at her with a mixture of anticipation and envy.
In everyone's eyes, Celeste's success today was inseparable from Matthias's guidance and support. Zachary had likely mentored her quite a bit as well.
However, Zachary had never officially taken her as his student.
Even so, given her relationship with Matthias, everyone assumed Zachary would continue offering her professional guidance in the future.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
The one-page updates have stopped again. It’s been 4 days since the last one-page update. There never was a promised 5 chapter update in the history of this story. It has been dribbled out, line-by-line for a very, very long time. Please end our torture and finish this story....
No update in four days… The cliffhangers are dreadful...
Please update...
I hope this isn’t another story where the husband lets all this happen just to say he was in love with her all along and was doing this to humiliate and get back the people who wronged her and her family. That just doesn’t make sense and if it is I hope the writer doesn’t have Celeste take him back and hope Caleb is her guy because Beck knew the full truth and decided to come to terms with who Celeste was after years of bullying her too....
Y no updates😔...
I need the final information to come out. That being that Winn is her half sister and she is just doing the same what her mom did before to Celeste’s mom...
Waiting Waiting Waiting...
Will the truth come out now? Even if it happened, how would Trevor explain his betrayal...? How will he explain the bad reputation and treatment Celeste has suffered? Whatever his justification, it will be worse than his actions....
I am speechless 🙂...
But I love love this. It's the moment I've been waiting for, please don't let Celeste leave this scene without being cleared of all nasty tags...
