Caleb was still thinking about it when Jorge asked him again, “Caleb, besides your father and my old man, do you know anyone else who has Zachary’s contact info?”
Caleb replied, “No one else.”
Then, as if something occurred to him, he added, “But didnt you say Ms. Locket had met Zachary before? I imagine she should have his contact.
“If talking to Mr. Newman could resolve things, wouldn’t she have already reached out to him herself?”
Jorge said, “I thought about that too. But since she’s directly involved, unless absolutely necessary, it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to contact Mr. Newman just to complain about Matthias, right?”
He was actually being pretty considerate. Seems like he liked Wynn more than he realized.
Jorge said, “Forget it, I’ll try asking some other people.”
“Alright.”
The fact that Celeste was also one of Zachary’s students hadn’t been made public meant that it was to remain confidential. Since that was the case, it wasn’t his place to share it with Jorge either.
With that in mind, Caleb said, “I’ve interacted with Celeste a few times. I don’t think she’s the kind of person you’re describing.
“Jorge, are you really sure all this happened because Celeste was worried Matthias might fall for Ms. Locket and kept targeting her? Couldn’t there have been some kind of misunderstanding?
“Why don’t you talk to Ms. Locket or someone else, find out what really happened between them?”
Jorge frowned when he heard that. “Caleb, are you taking her side?”
“I’m just being honest.”
But Jorge felt like Caleb had been fooled by Celeste. “I don’t think there’s any misunderstanding. I saw it all myself. How could I be wrong? You should be careful not to be fooled by appearances.”
Then he said, “Alright, let’s drop it. Once you’re on break, let’s meet up.”
Caleb still had things to do, so he didn’t push further. After finishing the call with Jorge, he hung up/
Wynn waited outside YodaVision, but Celeste and Matthias really didn’t pay her any attention—they just let her stand there waiting.
But Wynn was determined to wait.
However, she had an important matter to attend to at noon that day, and seeing that Matthias still hadn’t come out, she had no choice but to leave.
Over the next two days, she was busy with work and couldn’t find time to go to YodaVision again.
By Thursday, when she finally had some free time and was planning to visit YodaVision again, she received a court
summons.
Linda was furious when she found out. “It’s only been a few days, and they’ve already sent a court summons? Looks like they’re dead set on terminating the contract!

“And the court actually accepted the case? All this over such a minor issue–seriously? What kind of trashy court is this?”
Now that the case had been filed, unless Matthias withdrew the lawsuit, they’d have no choice but to go to trial.
Frustration aside, even Linda knew the situation had reached a nearly irreversible point.
Suddenly, Lilian spoke up, “What if we go to the Yoder family and tell them about this?”
They had always believed that since Celeste had been married and had a child, there was no way the Yoder family would accept her being with Matthias.
And the fact that Matthias had recently gone on a blind date with a proper, well–matched socialite seemed to confirm that theory.
If they found out she was now using personal grudges to drive a wedge between Matthias and his business partners, they’d probably be upset with her.
