The Scientific and Technological Academic Exchange Conference had been underway for two days, buzzing with the energy of nearly two hundred individual sessions. Hosted by the Baumond Association for Science and Technology and other esteemed organizations, this month-long event drew academicians, experts, and industry leaders from all corners of the scientific and industrial worlds. Among the invited companies stood Yoda Vision, proudly represented by none other than Matthias Yoder himself.
That afternoon's main session focused on Advanced Materials – a topic that sparked fire in the eyes of both Celeste and Matthias. After returning from the hospital, Celeste joined Matthias and several Yoda Vision technical staff members at the conference venue. Matthias, as the company's representative, had a reserved seat near the front, while Celeste and the staff followed the organizer's arrangement and settled near the back. They arrived early, but not long after they took their seats, Celeste's sharp eyes caught Trevor, Wynn, and Miles entering the hall.
Their eyes met. Wynn and Miles showed no surprise at seeing her – though their reactions spoke volumes. Miles assumed she was merely there to blend in with the crowd, while Wynn didn't care enough to spare more than a quick glance before looking away. Trevor, however, paused, his gaze lingering on Celeste for a moment before he took his seat in the front row.
Matthias, upon spotting Trevor, curled his lips in quiet irritation, pretending not to notice him. But Trevor, bold as ever, offered a friendly smile and greeted, "Mr. Yoder."
Matthias pressed his lips into a thin line, silently questioning his life choices. Had he not made himself clear enough? They weren't close, and there was no need for greetings in the future. Why was it so hard for some people to take a hint?
About ten minutes later, the conference officially began. An academician from the Academy of Engineering, Morgan Hale, took the stage and began elaborating on the vast field of Advanced Materials, weaving theories with audience engagement. Zachary Newman held a unique status in this field, and his protégés, Celeste and Matthias, had encountered and studied countless types of Advanced Materials. Many of the materials mentioned by Morgan were ones they could immediately identify by name, already familiar with their properties, raw materials, and manufacturing conditions.
Their knowledge base was broad, their understanding deeper than most. Still, the world was vast, and they couldn't know everything. Gathering diverse insights helped spark new ideas – so they listened attentively.
Wynn was also listening closely, her pen moving rapidly across her notepad. With the rapid advancement of technology, the field of Advanced Materials had become incredibly vast. Many of the terms and materials being discussed were things she had never even heard of, let alone experienced. As she listened to the back-and-forth between the speaker and audience, she realized just how much she still didn't know. She noted down key points she needed, planning to study them in detail later.
Trevor sat quietly, seemingly deep in thought, but he, too, appeared to be paying attention.
When Morgan finished his speech, many science and tech professionals eagerly stepped forward to ask questions. Morgan responded to each one with patience. Matthias left his seat and came over to Celeste to exchange ideas. Over 200 people filled the hall, and some who didn't know Celeste or Matthias overheard their discussion and were surprised, gathering around to listen. Before long, a small crowd had formed around them.
Someone recognized Matthias and exclaimed, "That's Matthias Yoder – Zachary Newman's student. No wonder he knows so much!"
More and more people came over to ask questions. Since this was an academic exchange, Matthias was generous in answering as long as the questions didn't involve confidential material. But the crowd kept growing, and he couldn't get to everyone – so he turned to the others waiting and said, "Celeste has a broad knowledge base too. You can ask her your questions."
And so, a number of people turned to Celeste with their inquiries. Within just ten or twenty minutes, the crowd around them grew even larger.
Trevor, who knew Morgan personally, brought Wynn over to say hello. Wynn took the opportunity to ask Morgan a few questions. Listening to her, Morgan smiled and said to Trevor, "Ms. Locket is so young and already has such a wide breadth of knowledge. Quite impressive. You've got a good eye, Trevor."
"You might not know this," said Lucien Zandrell, who had come over as well, "but Wynn is a PhD graduate from a top-ranked university. It's only natural that she's this impressive." Wynn had already attended several sessions over the past two days, standing out on her own. Yesterday morning, Bryson had also been present – he admired her and introduced her to several influential people, Lucien being one of them.
After speaking, Lucien looked at Wynn and Trevor with a smile. "So Wynn, you're Mr. Fleming's girlfriend? We talked so much yesterday, but you didn't mention that. So modest at such a young age – that's rare."
Wynn smiled. "You flatter me."
Their group had attracted a small crowd as well, and they engaged in a lively discussion for some time. But then, someone nearby exclaimed, "Matthias really lives up to being Mr. Newman's student – he knows so much! Ask him anything and he can answer!"
"Right? And not just Matthias – even the beautiful Ms. Rodriguez standing next to him is amazing. I was standing there listening, and honestly, it felt like I was hearing a foreign language."
At that, Wynn's expression tightened slightly. The glow of her own accomplishment dimmed in the shadow of someone else's brilliance.
Morgan, hearing the comments, seemed intrigued. He was, of course, already aware of who Matthias was. After hearing that, he turned to Trevor and Lucien. "I'm going to take a look over there."
Lucien also showed interest. Wynn paused for a second – then decided she wanted to go too. She turned to Trevor. "Shall we go see?"
Trevor smiled. "Sure."
Miles wasn't interested in any of it – but followed them anyway.

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
This chapter was a masterful display of contrasts – the quiet confidence of true expertise versus the fragile ego of someone who craves recognition. Watching Celeste and Matthias effortlessly command the room with their knowledge was deeply satisfying, especially after everything they've been through. Wynn's tightening expression spoke volumes; her jealousy is simmering beneath the surface, and it's only a matter of time before it boils over. The academic setting provided a perfect backdrop for the power dynamics to shift.
⭐ Rating: 4.7 / 5 Stars

**Next Chapter Prediction:**
Now that Wynn has seen Celeste and Matthias steal the spotlight at the conference, her pride is wounded. With Trevor and Lucien heading over to join the crowd around Celeste and Matthias, tension is bound to escalate. I predict Wynn will try to assert her own expertise in front of Morgan, perhaps by challenging Celeste directly or making a snide remark. Meanwhile, Trevor's lingering interest in Celeste may become more obvious, further fueling Wynn's insecurity and jealousy. The conference is about to become a battlefield of intellect – and emotions.
