# Chapter 393: The Hidden Genius and the Bitter Truth
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 393 of "The Breaking Point of Love". In this chapter, we witness a painful twist of perception—where brilliance is mistaken for borrowed glory, and the truth remains locked behind the walls of confidentiality. Buckle up, because emotions are about to run high!

The misunderstanding began innocently enough. Bryson's assistant, unaware that both Celeste and Matthias were students of the legendary Zachary Newman, innocently added fuel to a fire that would soon burn bright with doubt. When Bryson commented on Matthias's good fortune to be with Celeste, the assistant chimed in with a seemingly harmless observation.
"Last night in an interview, Mr. Yoder said that as a student of Mr. Newman, he had always been held to very high standards. Mr. Newman constantly made him stay on top of the latest developments in the field and required him to thoroughly understand every technical breakthrough. Mr. Newman would also fill in any gaps in his knowledge based on his research. Ms. Rodriguez is already quite capable. After getting together with Mr. Yoder, she also has his guidance. That means she'll be able to grow even faster. So really, being with Mr. Yoder is a good thing for Ms. Rodriguez."
All of that was true. But words, once spoken, have a way of spiraling into unintended meanings.
One of Rodney's students then dropped a verbal bomb: "So what you're saying is—the insights Ms. Rodriguez just shared were largely a combination of the result of Mr. Yoder's and Mr. Newman's research?"
The implication was devastatingly clear. Celeste wasn't quite as impressive as everyone had just assumed. She was merely standing on the shoulders of giants—Matthias and Zachary.
Rodney's face fell. He had genuinely believed he had discovered a rare, all-around genius in the world of AI. But now, that hope crumbled into dust. He was visibly disappointed, and the disappointment tasted bitter.
Trevor also paused. He had been present when Celeste spoke about recent developments in the field. He, too, had been impressed. But now, the illusion shattered. Celeste's so-called brilliance was nothing more than riding on the coattails of her mentor and boyfriend.
Wynn's lips curved into a subtle smile. So that was it. Celeste wasn't a genius after all—just a clever echo of others' hard work.
But Bryson knew the truth. He knew that Celeste was also Zachary's student. He had discussed AI developments with her before. He knew that Yoda Vision's now-famous programming language had been developed under her leadership. He knew, with absolute certainty, that Celeste's technical abilities were rock solid. Those insights she shared? They could very well be entirely her own.
Yet confidentiality bound his tongue. He couldn't defend her. He could only watch as Trevor, Rodney, and the others walked away with a distorted image of Celeste's capabilities.
Meanwhile, Celeste remained blissfully unaware of the storm brewing in Trevor's office. After leaving Fleming Group, she returned directly to Yodavision. While eating lunch, her phone buzzed with a message from Naomi.
"Ms. Rodriguez, I didn't expect you to be doing so well after leaving the company. Congratulations!"
Naomi didn't know the specifics of the collaboration with Fleming Group, but she knew enough to be impressed. Celeste replied warmly, "Thank you. You seem to be doing well too—congrats to you." Then she added, "Also, the coffee you made was really good. Thank you for that."
Naomi felt both happy and embarrassed. "But I still think your coffee tastes better, Ms. Rodriguez. No matter how many times I try, I can't seem to match it. I use the exact same method and measurements, but Mr. Fleming still doesn't like mine. In the end, just to keep my job, I spent a long time learning from a barista friend before I could even achieve what I can now."
After a bit more friendly chatter, Celeste ended the conversation.
That afternoon, Matthias returned from his business trip. The lawyer had news: regarding Innova Tech's compensation to Yoda Vision, Wynn had already paid 200 million dollars. There were still over 100 million left, which would take more time.
Matthias curled his lip in disbelief. "Isn't Trevor always generous with Wynn? Buying her a house without hesitation, giving her a company as a gift. After the contract termination, he even immediately helped her secure a partnership with Data Wing Inc. Our total compensation is just over 300 million, and yet it's taking this long to raise the money? Are they doing this on purpose?"
Celeste shook her head gently. "Probably not. I think the Locket family doesn't want to trouble Trevor anymore—they intend to cover this amount themselves."
Matthias clicked his tongue. "Given the Locket family's strength, it's not easy for them to come up with two to three hundred million in a short time while still keeping all their projects running. Still, the fact that Wynn insists on paying us back herself... Well, those two really are devoted to each other."
Celeste nodded. She had known this very clearly back when Wynn risked her life to take a knife for Trevor, and when Trevor insisted on divorcing her. Their love was fierce, undeniable, and unwavering.
And in that moment, the weight of that truth settled heavily on her heart.

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating:**
This chapter is a masterclass in dramatic irony. We, the readers, know the truth about Celeste's brilliance, but the characters are left in the dark. The pain of watching Celeste be misunderstood, while Bryson is helpless to defend her, is almost unbearable. Yet, the contrast with her quiet, professional life at Yodavision and the loyalty of people like Naomi provides a gentle warmth. The chapter ends with a poignant reminder of the unbreakable bond between Trevor and Wynn—a bond that has caused Celeste so much pain.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rating: 4.7 / 5 Stars
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
With Matthias back and the compensation payment dragging on, tensions are bound to rise. Will Trevor step in to speed up the process, or will the Locket family's pride force Wynn into increasingly difficult positions? Meanwhile, the misunderstanding about Celeste's abilities might spread further, potentially affecting her reputation at Fleming Group. And what will Trevor do when he learns the truth? One thing is certain—the breaking point is drawing closer.
