The air in the conference room was thick with the hum of computers and the soft click of keyboards. Jorge’s voice cut through the silence, casual yet probing, as he asked Wynn, “Are you familiar with that woman?”
He was referring to Celeste. And for a split second, Wynn’s fingers froze over her keyboard. A flicker of unease passed through her mind. Was Jorge interested in Celeste? It wouldn’t be hard to understand—Celeste was undeniably beautiful, the kind of woman who turned heads without trying.
But then Wynn remembered the whispers she had overheard at the auction, the subtle tension between Jorge and Celeste, and the way Jorge’s gaze now carried a hint of curiosity rather than admiration. She relaxed. She was mistaken.
Her voice was flat, emotionless. “Not really. Why?”
Jorge glanced across the room, where Celeste stood locked in conversation with Matthias. His eyes narrowed as he observed the way they spoke, the way Celeste commanded attention. “Judging by how she talks with Matthias, she seems quite capable.”
Wynn shrugged, her tone indifferent. “I’m not sure, but I heard she only has a bachelor’s degree.”
“Only a bachelor’s degree?” Jorge’s eyebrows rose slightly.
“Mm.”
That single piece of information settled something in Jorge’s mind. A bachelor’s degree. Lower than Wynn’s academic background. And lacking the same striking charm. He pieced together the puzzle and came to a conclusion: Celeste’s insecurity about losing Matthias was understandable. But the way she instantly treated every woman who seemed better than herself as an enemy, always assuming that others were trying to steal her boyfriend—that was a real turn-off. Jorge’s neutral feelings toward Celeste soured into mild dislike.
Meanwhile, Matthias, having a brief moment of freedom, cast a glance through the glass window at the two figures in the conference room. He watched the way Jorge leaned toward Wynn, the way they spoke in hushed tones. After a few seconds, he turned and leaned close to Celeste, his voice a low murmur. “Jorge likes Wynn?”
Celeste was deep in data processing, her fingers flying across the keyboard. It took her a moment to register his words, and even then, her reply was flat. “Probably.”
She truly didn’t care. After answering, she pulled Matthias back to work, reminding him to stop gossiping. The sooner they finished, the sooner they could leave.
Matthias smirked, a hint of amusement in his eyes. “What a poor choice.” And with that, he dropped the subject.
From across the room, Jorge noticed Matthias’s gaze. He assumed Matthias was looking at Wynn. And when he saw Celeste frown and pull Matthias away, he interpreted it as jealousy—annoyance that Matthias kept staring at Wynn. The misunderstanding was complete.
Wynn hit a technical snag. She paused, wanting to ask Matthias for guidance. But when she looked over, both Matthias and the Innova Tech engineers were completely absorbed in listening to Celeste. The way they gazed at her, if Wynn didn’t know better, she would have thought Celeste was some top-tier technical expert.
She averted her eyes.
The work stretched on. It wasn’t until past five in the evening that Celeste and Matthias finally wrapped things up. Jonathan, the host, invited them into the conference room to take a break and have some water.
The contract between Code Flux and Innova Tech was already finalized. Seeing that Jorge’s team had also finished, Jonathan suggested, “It’s getting late. How about grabbing dinner together?”
Jorge’s heart stirred. He glanced at Wynn.
But Wynn, as if oblivious to his gaze, replied coolly, “Sorry, Trevor is coming to pick me up from Fleming Group. We have other plans, so I won’t be joining. Enjoy your meal.”
The moment Wynn declined, Jorge’s interest in the dinner evaporated. “I’ve got things to do as well. Let’s do it another time.”
Wynn showed no surprise, her face a mask of indifference.
Matthias watched the scene unfold, and the more he observed, the more certain he became. Jorge liked Wynn. And the only reason Jorge backed out of the dinner was because Wynn wasn’t going.
With both declining, Jonathan found himself in an awkward position. He turned to Matthias. “Mr. Yoder, what about you?”
Matthias clinked his teacup against Celeste’s and grinned. “We’re free, right, Cel?”

This chapter is a masterclass in subtle storytelling. Every look, every word, every assumption builds a rich tapestry of unspoken emotions.

A wonderfully layered chapter that leaves you hungry for more.
