Chapter 31

As Matthias was about to speak, Celeste noticed someone approaching them to greet him. She turned slightly and. locked eyes with Wynn.

Wynn gave a polite smile, but everything changed when her gaze landed on Celeste. Her expression hardened instantly. She quickly averted her eyes, dismissing Celeste entirely.

Just as Wynn was about to give Matthias a smile, he unexpectedly turned to Celeste and introduced her, saying, This is Ms. Locket, Cel. Would you like to get to know her?

Matthias’s words conveyed three key points. First, he shared a close bond with Celeste. Second, he was aware of the ongoing feud between her and Celeste. Lastly, he clearly expressed his stance, aligning himself firmly with Celeste in their conflict.

Wynn was unaware that Matthias and Celeste had a prior relationship and were quite close. She was uncertain about the nature of their connection. However, given his comments, Wynn began to grasp the implications of what he meant.

She asked coldly, “Mr. Yoder, are you suggesting that I don’t need to report to YodaVision tomorrow?”

Matthias smiled appreciatively, set down his glass, and applauded. “Ms. Locket, you’re smart.”

He could have been more tactful with Wynn, but he chose not to be. This showed that he sided with Celeste and made the decision for her sake.

Wynn was completely unfazed. She felt neither embarrassed nor humiliated as she believed that while YodaVision held value, it paled in comparison to the status of the Fleming family.

In her eyes, Matthias was not qualified to humiliate her. With that thought, she silently turned away.

Celeste watched the scene, a warm smile spreading across her face. Just as she was about to engage Matthias in conversation, she caught sight of Trevor, Beck, and Miles all redirecting their gazes toward her.

It was clear that their focus was primarily on Wynn. Perhaps they were surprised to see her at the party as well.

Miles and Beck looked surprised to see her, but Trevor remained expressionless and calm. It was as if she were not his wife but rather a stranger he had never encountered.

“What’s wrong?” Matthias looked over.

Celeste shook her head with a smile. “Nothing.‘

By this point, Wynn had already left, leaving Trevor and the others uninterested in her presence. Hence, Celeste continued chatting with Bryson.

After Bryson left, Celeste took a sip of her drink and noticed Miles smirking at her while Trevor had his back turned. Miles lifted his glass in her direction.

Celeste frowned, struggling to understand Miles‘ behavior. He shot her a disdainful glance before turning away, completely dismissing her presence.

Suddenly, she realized that Miles might think she and Matthias had bullied Wynn. He was indicating that the issue wasn’t over. She frowned.

After a short while, Joshua returned from mingling with guests at the party. After warmly greeting everyone, he asked Matthias, “Are you familiar with Ms. Locket?”

He was referring to Wynn.
