Chapter 340
“Did you run into him again this morning?” Matthias asked
“Yeah,” Celeste responded.

Being stuck in the middle of a divorce and still running into your ex on a regular basis? Yes, it was exhausting.
But with their companies now officially partnered, a few run–ins were inevitable.
After two packed days at the office, Wednesday morning rolled around. Henry tagged both Celeste and Matthias in the group chat.
Matthias was mid–flight to another province, so after getting briefed on the situation, Celeste gathered her things and headed to InnovaTech with a few engineers.
It was her first time back at InnovaTech since Trevor had handed it over to Wynn.
As she and the engineers got out of the car, she spotted Jorge stepping out of a vehicle as well.
He had already been working with InnovaTech, and that wasn’t about to change just because Trevor had handed the company over to Wynn.
The only thing that had changed was who he dealt with–business used to be with Trevor, now it was Wynn. When they saw each other, they quickly looked away.
As they walked into InnovaTech, they noticed Wynn right away.
She looked like she was being cornered by yet another one of her overzealous admirers.
And this one was armed with an outrageously large bouquet of red roses.
Wynn was facing the door, so the moment Celeste and Jorge saw her, she spotted them as well.
It was the first time she had laid eyes on Celeste since learning that Beck had feelings for her.
Wynn’s expression darkened immediately.
Jorge saw how fed up Wynn looked and walked over. “What’s going on?”
Celeste didn’t spare them a second glance. Whatever drama was unfolding wasn’t her concern–she just kept walking toward the elevator with her team.
A couple of minutes passed. The elevator still hadn’t arrived, but Wynn’s voice carried across the lobby. “Thanks for stepping in.”
“No problem.”
With a worried tone, Jorge asked, “Doesn’t this building have security? Why didn’t anyone stop him?”
Wynn let out a tired sigh. “He paid them off.”
Jorge frowned. “So, he’s just free to show up whenever he wants?”
“He won’t,” Wynn said coolly. “I’ll talk to Trevor about it later. He’ll handle it.”
Jorge lowered his gaze. After a pause, he murmured, “Alright.”
By the time he finished speaking, they had already caught up with Celeste’s group, and the elevator doors opened right then.

Chapter 340
Everyone stepped in together.
The YodaVision employees, who often accompanied Celeste to InnovaTech, already knew the company had changed hands.
They also recognized Wynn. Once they were inside the elevator, one of them greeted Wynn politely.
Now that Wynn was officially in charge of the company, the formalities had shifted.
