Feeling embarrassed, Celeste’s face flushed immediately. She adjusted the collar that Shanice had tugged..

Beck’s expression darkened in that instant. After he snapped back to his senses, he turned around and shifted his Baze,

The nanny, who had been standing aside, was mortified as well.

Luckily, they were the only ones there; otherwise, it would have been even more awkward.

The nanny quickly helped Celeste adjust her clothes.

Celeste was reserved, and she had never revealed so much of her body to any man other than Trevor.

What made it worse was that the man before her was Trevor’s good friend. That made her especially uncomfortable.

After adjusting her clothes, she uttered in an unnatural tone, “I have something to do, so I’ll leave first.”

Only then did Beck turn around and face Celeste. “I’m sorry

Shanice knew she had done something wrong and thought she had upset Celeste. She looked at Celeste with teary eyes and softly apologized, “Ms. Rodriguez, I’m sorry…”

Celeste knew it wasn’t intentional and didn’t want to be too harsh on Shanice. Hence, she could only brush it off.” It’s okay. I know you didn’t do it on purpose.”

Then, she smiled and waved at Shanice before entering the elevator.

Beck watched as the elevator door closed. He spoke to Shanice, who was in his arms, “Shanice, you can’t do that in the future. Understand?”

Shanice nodded firmly. “I understand…”

Since Celeste had to go to the Fleming Manor for dinner, she left at around 4:00 pm after the group activity. Matthias walked her to the parking lot. “Drive safe, Celeste,” he reminded.

“Got it.”

As they were talking, a car slowly approached them.

Celeste didn’t notice the car at first. The car’s backseat window gradually rolled down, and Shanice poked her head out of the window. She waved at Celeste. “Goodbye, Ms. Rodriguez!”

She gave Shanice a faint smile. “Goodbye, Shanice.”

Celeste paused for a moment when she saw Beck staring at her. Then, she gave him a quick nod as a greeting. Beck, too, nodded at her. He cast a glance at Matthias, who was standing beside Celeste, and shifted his gaze.

Matthias watched as Beck drove away. Rubbing his chin, he remarked, “Why do I feel like he was scrutinizing me just now?”

Celeste shrugged. “Really? Why would he do that?”

How could Matthias know the reason, though?

He just felt like Beck was examining him.

Hesitantly, Matthias said, “Maybe he thought something was going on between us, so he has to keep an extra eye. on me for Trevor?”

Upon hearing that, Celeste’s smile waned a little. She replied nonchalantly, “Trust me, it has nothing to do with

this.”

Beck had a great relationship with Wynn as well.

Thus, Beck would rather see Trevor and Wynn together for sure.

He and Miles would probably love for Celeste to have something romantic going on with the others and leave Trevor alone, so why would Beck be worried that Celeste might cheat on Trevor?

Celeste hopped in the car and drove away.

The night had settled in completely when she arrived at the Fleming Manor.

Martha was the only one there other than the housekeepers

When Martha knew Celeste had arrived, she went to welcome her.

Her smile froze when she realized Celeste was on her own. Where’s Jo?”

It was common for Trevor not to return in the same car with Celeste, so Martha didn’t bother asking

But it was unusual for Jordyn not to return with Celeste, as she usually did.

Since her ankle had healed, and after she had a meal with Jordyn at the villa, Jordyn had never contacted her.

Celeste had no idea where Jordyn and Trevor went for this weekend, or who they were together with. She di

didn’t feel the need to ask.

Celeste smiled at Martha and answered, “They should be here soon.

However, in reality, she was uncertain whether they would make it tonight.

After all, didn’t something similar happen the last time when they went to the hot spring retreat?

Martha didn’t ask further after hearing what Celeste had said. She believed that Celeste was aware of Trevor and Jordyn’s schedule.

Celeste chatted with Martha for a long time in the manor, When it was almost 7:30 pm, Trevor still hadn’t shown up with Jordyn.

Martha frowned. “Why are they still not here yet?”

She recalled how Trevor didn’t make it to the hot spring retreat last time.

Feeling displeased, Martha said, “Cel, try giving them a call”

Celeste could only take out her phone and give Trevor a call

Trevor picked up the call immediately.

As if he had already guessed the purpose of the call, he spoke up before Celeste could. “We’ll be there in 20

minutes.”

Just as Celeste was going to speak, she heard Jordyn through the phone.
