The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 148

After lunch, as soon as Celeste got home, Matthias called.

After hearing why Zachary had asked to see her, he said, “Theodore and Harold? Yeah, I know them.”

Then he added, “By the way, that Jorge is actually Theodore’s son. Tsk, with a father that impressive, I really don’t get how the son ended up being blind at such a young age.”

Celeste didn’t expect Jorge to be Theodore’s son. But it didn’t concern her.

On Tuesday, InnovaTech conducted the initial test of its self–driving car.

Celeste and Matthias went over to InnovaTech early in the morning. By the time they got there, Jorge, Xavier, and the others had already arrived.

When they saw Celeste and Matthias, they glanced over briefly before looking away.

Matthias didn’t care to acknowledge them either and pulled Celeste along to focus on the test preparations.

Seeing that everything was set up, but the test hadn’t started yet, Matthias asked, “Why hasn’t it begun?” Henry replied, “Mr. Fleming is coming to observe the test personally. We’ll start once he arrives.” “Oh.”

Something occurred to him, and he asked, “By the way, where’s Ms. Locket today?”

Didn’t Wynn say she was coming to InnovaTech to refine her skills? Why had she disappeared after just a few days? Henry chuckled. “Oh, Ms. Locket said she wanted to improve herself, right? Mr. Fleming said the fastest and best way to do that is to lead a team and work on a project.

“So, last week, Mr. Fleming had one of the company’s shelved projects reorganized. In the past few days, Ms. Locket has gathered a team and is currently in a meeting upstairs.”

Matthias was dumbfounded. He turned to glance at Celeste, only to see her jotting down notes on previous test results, showing no reaction whatsoever to Henry’s mention of Trevor forming a team for Wynn.

So, he sighed and ruffled her hair.

Celeste swatted his hand away. “Don’t mess with me.” Her tone sounded fine–so she probably didn’t care anymore. That put him at ease.

Just then, Trevor arrived. With him were Beck and Miles.

Beck and Miles were clearly surprised to see Celeste there. They both looked at her in shock.

Celeste, however, remained expressionless, sparing them only a glance before looking away.

Trevor was polite as he greeted them. “Thank you all for your hard work.”

“Mr Fleming, should we begin now?” Henry asked.

“Wait a moment, we’re still waiting for someone.” Trevor checked his watch. “I’ll head upstairs to take a look. Please wait a bit.”

With that, he left.

Celeste didn’t overthink things. Instead, she knew the person Trevor was waiting for was Wynn. Which meant that they couldn’t begin the test until Wynn finished her meeting and came downstairs.
