The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 180

Trevor said, “I’m not in a hurry. You go ahead.”

Hearing this, Beck nodded. “Alright.”

He walked over and came face to face with Celeste. “Mr. Yoder, Ms. Rodriguez.”

Seeing it was him, Matthias‘ smile faded slightly. “Mr. Harper.”

Celeste also greeted him politely. “Mr. Harper.”

At that moment, Jorge also approached.

Unlike Beck, he only greeted Matthias “Mr. Yoder.”

Matthias‘ smile grew even fainter. “Mr. Robinson is here too? Apologies, I was busy earlier and didn’t notice.”

Jorge immediately picked up on the fact that Matthias seemed even less welcoming toward him than during their last encounter. But he wasn’t surprised.

He cast a cold glance at Celeste. He knew she must have whispered all sorts of things about that day to Matthias.

Not caring much about Matthias‘ attitude, he said, “I visited YodaVision a couple of days ago. I wonder if you’re aware, Mr. Yoder?”

“Of course, Cel told me.” Matthias continued, “I also reviewed your proposal. I think it’s well done, but… Personally, it’s just not to my liking. So I’m sorry, Mr. Robinson, but as for our collaboration, I’m afraid-

Jorge didn’t expect Matthias to be so biased because of Celeste.

He frowned. “I thought you were someone who could separate personal matters from business, Mr. Yoder.”

“I usually do.” Now that things were out in the open, Matthias didn’t bother pretending. He chuckled, “But it depends on the situation.”

His words implied that when it came to Celeste, whether he remained impartial was another matter.

Theodore had instructed him to focus on collaborations with YodaVision for the next two years, which meant the company’s projects had even greater potential than most realized.

Despite his conflict with Matthias, he wasn’t going to give up on working with YodaVision so easily.

“If you find issues with my proposal, I’ll bring a revised one on my next visit, Mr. Yoder,” he said.

Glancing at Beck, he added, “Since you’re busy, I won’t take up more of your time: Goodbye.”

With that, he turned and left.

Throughout the conversation, Jorge never once acknowledged Celeste.

But standing nearby, Beck could tell from Jorge’s deliberate disregard that Matthias‘ refusal to collaborate was very much related to Celeste..

However, he chose not to ask about it and instead acted as if he hadn’t noticed. “I’ve also prepared a revised proposal. Would you two be available for dinner on Monday?”

Given Beck’s close ties with Wynn and Trevor, Matthias had never been particularly fond of him, even if his proposal was excellent.

Charter 180.

But now, since Beck was making an effort to set aside personal grievances and even took the initiative to include Celeste in the invitation, Matthias‘ impression of him improved slightly.

Still, he kept things professional. “Monday? I’m not sure yet. If I’m free, I’ll let you know. Rest assured, Mr. Harper.”
