Beck was, of course, there that night for Celeste.
When he saw her, his gaze fell on her face, and he said gently, "Long time no see."
They had actually met just last month at a government-hosted conference for corporate representatives. Celeste didn't think it had been that long.
But since he put it that way, she smiled and replied, "Long time no see."
She and Trevor were not officially divorced yet. Seeing that the look on Celeste's face toward him was one that was more than just a business partner, yet not quite that of a friend, Beck lowered his eyes and smiled.
He only talked to her about work matters, and in order not to disturb her too much, he didn't say a single unnecessary word.
Celeste was quite busy. After chatting with Beck for a while, she left with Matthias to speak with other people.
Beck watched her back, his gaze lingering for a long time before he finally looked away.
Celeste remained focused on work and barely paid any attention to Wynn and her companions.
But Wynn and her group had most of their attention fixed on her.
Matthias was currently a highly sought-after, eligible bachelor. There were countless women at the event who wanted to get close to him, but he basically gave none of them the chance, staying almost inseparably by Celeste's side.
Seeing this, Linda and Ruby felt sour inside, yet they had to admit that Matthias truly cared a great deal about Celeste.
Lilian's hand gripping her wine glass tightened slightly, imperceptibly.
When the banquet was about to end, as Celeste and Matthias were leaving, her gaze brushed past Wynn and her group before she indifferently looked away, not sparing them another glance.
But in Linda's eyes, that look was full of contempt and smugness.
Linda was furious. "What does she have to be smug about? Let's see how long she can stay smug!"
Matthias was utterly devoted to her, and Trevor's attention was now also on her. Watching them grow anxious and unsettled because Trevor's heart seemed to be shifting toward Celeste—
How could Celeste not feel smug?
If Wynn failed to win Trevor's heart back, Celeste would only become even more smug.
