Chapter 283
The government staff arranged lunch for Celeste and the other company representatives. After the forum had.
concluded, she packed her stuff, rose to her feet, and left. Trevor watched her retreating figure and walked
behind
her.
The Robinson family and the Jennings family were quite close to each other. So, Jorge and Harold knew one
another quite well. Once they were out of the conference rodin, the former greeted the latter.
Celeste ignored Jorge, who was standing next to Harold, Instead, she walked over and greeted Harold as well.
“Mr. Jennings.”
He smiled and responded warmly, “You don’t have to be so stiff. Just act natural.”
Celester readily took his advice. “Alright, Mr. Jennings.”
Jorge heard what she said and was stumped. If memory served him right, Celeste and Harold had probably met
each other for the first tduring Harry's art exhibition.

Back then, Harold might've been quite polite toward Celeste out of respect for Matthias, but they were likely not
that close. Things didn’t seem to be the case, though.
Not only did Harold recognize Celeste at first glance, but he was even quite warm toward her. It was as if she
cfrom his friend's family, and he had also known her since she was a kid as well.
Furthermore, she was calm when she greeted Harold, even though she was the younger one.
At that moment, Trevor also cover. “Mr. Jennings.”
The smile on Harold's face faded somewhat when he saw Trevor. The Jennings family didn’t exactly have a close
relationship with the Fleming family. However, he had been interacting with Trevor occasionally due to work for
the past few years.
As for Trevor, Harold used to think the former was so excellent that he outshone everyone around him. At the
stime, it was exceedingly rare for someone like Trevor to be humble and courteous around people. He had
never paid any attention to the young man’s love life, though.
Harold clearly remembered knowing that Trevor had a girlfriend from what he had gathered during Harry's art
exhibition. More to the point, it seemed like everyone knew about it.
On the other hand, no one seemed to know that Trevor was married to Celeste. Back then, it didn’t look like they
knew each other at all.
That was why Harold was quite shocked when he learned that Trevor was married to Celeste. On top of that, they
even had a kid who was around six years old.
With that said, Trevor and Celeste acted as if they didn’t know each other during Harry’s art exhibition last year.
There was a strong possibility that they were already divorced back then.
All of them headed to the dining area. Jorge looked at them and frowned. Before the forum began, he noticed
Trevor taking the initiative to talk to Celeste.
Although he couldn't hear what they talked about, she had been maliciously targeting Wynn this whole time.
The thing was, Trevor had treated Celeste very warmly. Moreover, he acted as if they were very close. In fact,
Trevor even made a point of sitting next to Celeste right now.
The longer Jorge looked at them, the deeper his frown grew

Celeste lowered her head and ate quietly as she listened in on Harold and the other politician's exchange. Trevor
might've been sitting next to him, but he had been chatting with someone else. He did talk to her that much.

to take her yourself on her first day of school?”
She lowered her gaze and responded nonchalantly, “I'm busy, and | can’t make tfor it.”
He heard what she said, grinned, and said, “Okay. | get the picture.”
Then, he turned around and chatted with someone else.
Jorge made sure to pay attention to them. He had sthoghts when he saw Trevor talking to Celeste again.
However, Trevor was openly talking to her in front of everyone. Perhaps he had been overthinking it after all.
More to the point, InnovaTech and YodaVision Co. had ongoing collaborative projects. Trevor might've talked to
Celeste out of pure courtesy. Maybe that was all there was to it.
The meal was almost over, too. So, Jorge turned his gaze away. Then, he saw Harold, and a thought suddenly
popped into his mind. He quickly pulled out his phone and sent a text to Caleb.
“Did your uncle know Celeste in person before your grandpa’s art exhibition?”
Caleb had a unique job. Normally, he wouldn't reply to a text that quickly. However, it just so happened that he
had an off day today. When he saw Jorge's text, he quickly replied to it.
“Uncle Harold doesn’t know Celeste. What's the matter?”
