Celeste's words hung in the air like frost, cold and final. She didn't spare Trevor another glance as she turned on her heel, her footsteps echoing with a resolve he hadn't seen in her before. Trevor stepped forward, his hand reaching out instinctively to stop her, but fate—or perhaps his own hesitation—intervened. His phone rang, shrill and insistent, shattering the fragile moment. He glanced at the caller ID, and for a second, his resolve wavered. He watched Celeste slip into her car, her silhouette sharp against the dim light, and then he answered the call.
Matthias, who had been lurking nearby with a protective gleam in his eyes, prepared to intercept Trevor if he dared to follow. But seeing Trevor stop on his own, Matthias snorted coldly, his disdain clear. He slid into the passenger seat beside Celeste, his voice low and sharp.
"Where did he want you to go?" Matthias asked, not bothering to hide his suspicion.
Celeste explained about Martha Fleming's upcoming birthday celebration. Matthias genuinely hadn't known—the Yoder and Fleming families weren't close, but with the party being thrown with such grandeur, an invitation was inevitable. He just rarely visited his own family, so the news had passed him by.
He nodded thoughtfully. "You're right not to go." Then his brow furrowed. "Didn't he already bring Wynn to meet the family? He'll probably take her to the banquet. So why ask you to attend? Wouldn't it be more logical if you stayed away?"
Celeste had wondered the same thing. But she had stopped caring about Trevor and Wynn long ago. She no longer expected to cross paths with Trevor again, and so the strange invitation didn't trouble her deeply. Still, Matthias wasn't satisfied. He paused, piecing together the puzzle.
"Wait," he said, his voice hardening. "Maybe when he brought Wynn to the Fleming manor, the family didn't approve. And now he's banking on the fact that Martha values and trusts you. He's thinking—if you give your blessing, Martha and the others might soften, accept Wynn, and let them be together without a fight."
Celeste fell silent for a long moment. "Maybe," she finally said.
Matthias let out a cold, bitter laugh. "No wonder he's suddenly willing to humble himself and come looking for you. He sure knows how to calculate things."
Celeste didn't answer. She focused on the road, her hands steady on the wheel, but inside, a flicker of old pain stirred. She pushed it down.
Meanwhile, Trevor ended his brief call. Jorge, still standing nearby, hesitated before speaking. "Was that Ms. Locket?" he asked.
Trevor gave a faint smile, slipping his phone into his pocket. "Yes." He turned to Jorge with a practiced ease. "Mr. Robinson, do you have any plans later? Want to grab a bite together?"
Jorge paused, studying Trevor's face. He sensed an ulterior motive but agreed nonetheless. "Sure."
More than half an hour later, they sat in a refined restaurant. Trevor smiled amiably, but his eyes were sharp. "Yesterday I heard from Mr. Locket that you agreed to discuss a new project with him in the next few days?"
Jorge's guard went up immediately. Trevor was referring to Wynn's father, Harvey Locket. He had already heard that Trevor was deeply involved with the Locket family, but he hadn't expected this level of scrutiny. He replied coolly, "That's true."
Trevor leaned in. "I'm actually quite interested in this project myself. I wonder if you could tell me more about it?"
Jorge's lips curled into a thin smile. He understood now: Trevor wasn't interested in the project itself. He was worried that Jorge might use it to take advantage of the Locket family. Otherwise, why bring up Harvey first? If Trevor were truly curious, he would have asked about the business plan directly. *Take advantage of the Locket family?* Jorge thought with a dry chuckle. But he didn't voice that. Instead, he replied calmly, "Sorry, Mr. Fleming. That project is still under wraps for now, so I can't say much. I hope you'll understand."
The air between them thickened. Trevor's smile didn't waver, but his eyes betrayed a flicker of calculation. The game was only beginning.
