Matthias glanced at Celeste and, sensing that Cole seemed to look down on Wynn, asked, “Mr. Turner, do you have a grudge against the Locket family?”

Cole shook his head. “I wouldn’t call it a grudge, but… Stella Smith–the lady who had an argument with Ms. Locket last night–is the daughter of an old friend of mine,

“I’ve known her since she was little. She can be a bit impulsive, but she’s not unreasonable.

“Her fiancé, that kid from the Lowe family, John, got quite close to another girl two years ago–so much so that he was on the verge of breaking off his engagement with Stella.

“But then, somehow, that girl ended up getting acquainted with Trevor, and suddenly, she and John weren’t in contact anymore…”

From Cole’s words, the implication was clear. Wynn had previously interfered in Stella’s relationship with her fiancé. However, after Wynn managed to climb to a higher status, she withdrew herself.

But what really frustrated Cole wasn’t the past–it was last night’s incident at the charity gala.

He sighed. “Originally, my old friend and Stella were supposed to attend the expo today. But after last night’s commotion, which involved Mr. Fleming, the topic exploded online. Netizens have been bashing Stella. It’s making her so upset.

“On top of that, those sly old foxes saw Wynn’s connection with Mr. Fleming and immediately tried to cozy up to the Locket family.

“To avoid becoming a target today, my old friend and Stella decided not to come…”

Matthias and Celeste listened in silence. They were unsure of what to say.

When Celeste glanced over at Wynn, she noticed that even more people had gathered around her.

After finishing their conversation with Cole, Celeste joined Yandel and the others to discuss and analyze the

exhibition’s innovations.

Being exposed to so many cutting–edge technologies at once left Celeste and Yandel exhilarated and completely absorbed.

It was unclear how much time had passed when Matthias suddenly approached Celeste and pointed in a direction.

It was Trevor. So, he was here too.

His technology company had considerable influence in the country, and he was also technically skilled. His presence at the event didn’t surprise Celeste.

Besides, with Wynn attending, how could he not show up?

Sure enough, there he was–standing right next to Wynn.

The people surrounding them positioned them at the center of attention, making them appear as if they were a legitimate couple.

Celeste took one look and then withdrew her gaze.

Then, she spotted Miles. He was here too.

However, he was engaged in a conversation and hadn’t noticed her.

Matthias asked, “Does he know you’re here?”

Celeste shook her head. “He probably doesn’t.”

After all, although she and Trevor had seen each other occasionally in recent days, they had never really discussed their relationship.

Even when they did exchange words, it was always about their daughter, Jordyn.

So how could Trevor possibly know that she was attending the exhibition?
