---
The New Year festivities were still in full swing when Celeste arrived at Zachary and Nadine's home. The air was filled with laughter, the clinking of glasses, and the cheerful chatter of guests who had gathered to celebrate the holiday season. But as Celeste's eyes swept across the room, she realized something curious — most of the faces surrounding her were strangers. She didn't recognize the majority of the guests visiting Zachary and Nadine's home that day.
Yet, among the unfamiliar faces, one figure stood out in a way that caught her completely off guard: Jorge.
There he was, mingling among the guests, having arrived earlier under instructions to pay a visit to Zachary and his wife. When Jorge had first arrived and spotted Matthias among the crowd but not Celeste, he had quietly assumed she wouldn't be coming at all. Imagine his surprise, then, when she walked in on her own later — a quiet entrance that spoke volumes to those who knew the weight of her presence.
But the Robinson family was also incredibly busy that day. Jorge couldn't stay long. After setting down his gift, exchanging a few pleasantries with Zachary and his wife, and making his rounds, he slipped away — leaving behind nothing more than a brief, polite impression.
Celeste and Matthias, however, were in no hurry to leave. They lingered at Zachary's house for quite some time, enjoying the warmth of the gathering. Eventually, the four of them — Celeste, Matthias, Zachary, and his wife — ventured out together for a meal, continuing the easy camaraderie that had settled between them.
The days that followed painted a picture of a peaceful, unhurried holiday. Celeste spent two days visiting relatives with the Rodriguez family, the meticulous traditions of the New Year wrapping around her like a familiar blanket. Then came two more days of leisure — lazy afternoons, unhurried moments, and the simple pleasure of being away from the relentless demands of work.
But all good things must come to an end.
By the sixth day of the New Year, Celeste found herself drawn back into the orbit of business. Work arrangements called, and she began attending business engagements alongside Matthias once more — the rhythm of ambition pulling her back into its steady, unyielding current.
That day, Celeste and Matthias were deep in discussion about a potential collaboration with a prospective partner. The private room was warm and intimate, the kind of setting where deals were quietly forged and alliances subtly tested. Neither of them noticed the figure passing by outside.
But Miles — out for dinner with Trevor and Beck — happened to walk past their private room. And when he caught sight of Celeste and Matthias through the doorway, he raised his eyebrows, his curiosity piqued. He couldn't help but stop and take a closer look.
The moment was brief but telling. Miles stood there, his gaze lingering on the pair, something unreadable flickering behind his eyes.
Just then, the waiter finished serving and moved to close the private room door. Noticing Miles standing there, staring inside, the waiter couldn't help but ask, "Sir, is there something you need?"
The voice cut through the room's quiet hum. Celeste and Matthias both turned their heads toward the door, their conversation momentarily suspended.
When Matthias saw who it was, a half-smile curved his lips — a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
"Oh, it's Mr. Quinton. Is there something you need?"
Miles waved his hand dismissively, a practiced gesture of casual indifference.
"Nothing. Just happened to pass by. Carry on."
And with that, he smiled and turned to leave, as if the entire exchange had been nothing more than a chance encounter.
But when Miles returned to his own private room, he found that Trevor and Beck had already arrived. Pulling out a chair, he sat down with an air of someone who had just stumbled upon something interesting.
"You're both here already. Pretty punctual."
Before either of them could respond, he tilted his chin toward the door, a mischievous glint in his eyes.
"Guess who I just saw?"
Trevor and Beck both calmly picked up their teacups and drank their tea, neither offering a single word in response.
Miles grew impatient. He was never one to tolerate silence well — especially not when he had something juicy to share.
"Come on — can't you at least give me some kind of reaction?"
Trevor was the first to set down his teacup, his voice measured and unhurried.
"Who did you see?"
"Celeste and Matthias." Miles poured himself a cup of tea, savoring the moment. "They're really dedicated. It's still the New Year holiday, and they're already back to business."
Beck lowered his eyes and remained silent.
The moment Miles began speaking, Beck had already guessed the answer. Of course it was Celeste. It was always Celeste. But he hadn't expected Matthias to be there as well — the thought settling in his chest like a stone.
Trevor listened, his expression unreadable, and replied calmly, "Oh? Is that so?"
Miles curled his lips into a wry smile, leaning back in his chair.
"Yoda Vision belongs to Matthias, not Celeste's. Yet she's putting so much effort into it. It almost looks like she treats Yoda Vision like a family business run by her and Matthias as husband and wife."
The words hung in the air, deliberate and loaded.
Trevor simply smiled and didn't respond.
But Beck, who had been silent until now, set down his teacup with quiet resolve.
"I'd like to go over and say hello. Trevor, want to come along?"
His words carried a subtle implication — that he would be greeting them in the spirit of business cooperation, since the Fleming Group was now closely working with their companies. If Trevor wished, he could join as well.
Trevor shook his head. "No. You go ahead."
"Alright."
Beck nodded and left the private room.
When Celeste and Matthias heard the knock on their door and saw that the visitor was Beck, both looked somewhat surprised — the unexpectedness of his appearance momentarily breaking through their conversation.
Beck said, "Miles mentioned that you were dining here as well, so I came by to say hello."
After speaking, his gaze rested on Celeste — lingering just a moment longer than necessary — and he said gently, "Happy New Year."
Celeste nodded. "Happy New Year."
And in that simple exchange, a world of unspoken emotions hung suspended in the air — the weight of history, the echo of what might have been, and the quiet tension of two people navigating the delicate boundaries between past and present.

## Reader's Impressions & Star Rating
What a wonderfully layered chapter! This installment masterfully captures the subtleties of social dynamics and unspoken emotions. The scene where Miles spots Celeste and Matthias together is charged with quiet tension — his comment about Celeste treating Yoda Vision like a "family business run by her and Matthias as husband and wife" cuts deep, especially knowing the complicated history between all these characters. Beck's decision to go say hello, his gentle "Happy New Year" to Celeste, and the cool interaction between Matthias and Miles all build a rich tapestry of restrained emotion. The pacing is perfect — the holiday warmth contrasts beautifully with the business tensions simmering beneath the surface.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars
## Next Chapter Prediction
Oh, this is setting up for something intense! Now that Beck has directly interacted with Celeste and Matthias, I predict the next chapter will dive deeper into the brewing tension between these two men. Matthias has clearly noticed Beck's lingering gaze and special attention toward Celeste — his half-smile was anything but friendly. I suspect a confrontation or a power play between Matthias and Beck is on the horizon, possibly sparked by the business dealings between their companies. And with Miles stirring the pot with his observations, the delicate balance between these characters is bound to shatter. Buckle up, everyone — the storm is coming!
