The party was in full swing, the clinking of glasses and murmur of conversations creating a sophisticated symphony. Matthias was just about to speak to Celeste when a familiar figure approached – Wynn Locket. Celeste turned slightly, and their eyes locked. Wynn offered a polite smile, but the moment her gaze landed on Celeste, her expression hardened like ice. She quickly averted her eyes, dismissing Celeste as though she were invisible, nothing more than a speck of dust.
Wynn was about to greet Matthias with a practiced smile when he did something unexpected. He turned to Celeste and introduced her, saying, "This is Ms. Locket, Cel. Would you like to get to know her?"
The words were simple, but their meaning cut deep. Three messages were delivered in that single sentence. First, Matthias shared a close, intimate bond with Celeste. Second, he was fully aware of the ongoing feud between Wynn and Celeste. And third – most devastatingly – he made his stance crystal clear: he stood firmly with Celeste.
Wynn's face went pale. She had no idea that Matthias and Celeste had a prior relationship, let one that was so close. The implication hit her like a thunderbolt. Her voice turned cold as she asked, "Mr. Yoder, are you suggesting that I don't need to report to Yoda Vision tomorrow?"
Matthias smiled appreciatively, set down his glass, and applauded slowly. "Ms. Locket, you're smart."
He could have been diplomatic with Wynn, but he chose not to. That single gesture showed everything – he was siding with Celeste, making this decision for her sake, and publicly humiliating the woman who had dared to cross her.
But Wynn was not one to show weakness easily. She felt neither embarrassed nor humiliated because, in her mind, Yoda Vision was a mere stepping stone compared to the towering status of the Fleming family. She believed Matthias was not qualified to humiliate her. With that thought burning in her chest, she turned silently and walked away.
Celeste watched the scene unfold, a warm smile spreading across her face. She was about to engage Matthias in conversation when something caught her attention. Across the room, Trevor, Beck, and Miles all redirected their gazes toward her.
Their focus was primarily on Wynn. Perhaps they were surprised to see her at the party as well. Miles and Beck looked surprised, but Trevor remained expressionless and calm, his face a mask of indifference. It was as if she were not his wife but a complete stranger he had never encountered.
"What's wrong?" Matthias asked, noticing her distraction.
Celeste shook her head with a smile. "Nothing."
By then, Wynn had already left. Trevor and the others seemed uninterested in her presence. Celeste continued chatting with Bryson, trying to shake off the unease.
After Bryson left, Celeste took a sip of her drink and noticed Miles smirking at her from across the room. Trevor had his back turned. Miles lifted his glass in her direction – a gesture that was anything but friendly.
Celeste frowned, struggling to understand Miles' behavior. He shot her a disdainful glance before turning away, completely dismissing her. Suddenly, realization dawned: Miles might think that she and Matthias had bullied Wynn together. His glance was a warning – the issue wasn't over.
She frowned deeply.
A short while later, Joshua returned from mingling with guests. After warmly greeting everyone, he asked Matthias, "Are you familiar with Ms. Locket?" He was referring to Wynn.
Matthias grinned. "Kind of. What's wrong?"
"I had the opportunity to learn a bit about her during our previous conversations. She mentioned that she comes from Letville, not Baumond. Her family business is thriving and has gained recognition in Letville. However, when compared to prominent families like the Fleming, Harper, and Quinton families here in Baumond, her family's achievements seem relatively insignificant."
The words hung in the air, a quiet reminder that Wynn, for all her arrogance, was still a small fish in a big pond. But Celeste knew that small fish could still bite, especially when cornered.

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
What a powerful chapter! The tension between Celeste and Wynn is reaching a boiling point, and Matthias's bold move to publicly side with Celeste was both heartwarming and risky. The way Trevor dismissed Celeste with cold indifference broke my heart – the man she married treats her like a stranger. Miles's smirk and warning gesture add another layer of intrigue. This chapter masterfully shows loyalty, power dynamics, and the quiet war brewing beneath the surface.
⭐ **Rating: 4.7 / 5 Stars**
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
Now that Wynn has been publicly humiliated, she won't take this lying down. Expect her to use every connection she has, perhaps even reaching out to Trevor or the Fleming family, to strike back at Celeste. Meanwhile, Celeste may finally start questioning Trevor's coldness and the secrets he's hiding. The tension is about to explode!
