Mag-log inWynn and the family were still downstairs and hadn't gone to bed.Seeing Calvin come back downstairs, Lilian asked, "Why are you in such a hurry this late at night? What—"Calvin stopped and looked at them, his eyes red.He interrupted his mother. "Is what I saw online true?"The words Lilian was about to say caught in her throat.Everyone else fell silent for a moment as well.Harvey was already exhausted. But at that moment, he was the only one who could appropriately step forward and respond.He approached Calvin. "Cal, she and I simply weren't compatible. She was stubborn and refused to listen to anyone. She was always unwilling to get a divorce. I separated from her because of our own problems. It wasn't your mother's fault."Erin regarded this grandson of hers very dearly. She gently said, "That's right, Cal. Matters of the heart are complicated. Don't believe everything people say outside."Calvin paused. Then his gaze fell on Wynn.Wynn lowered her eyes, her expressio
Once Calvin came back to his senses, he figured that the part about being "from a mistress's family" was probably just a typo.He chuckled and was about to type and ask his classmate if they'd made a mistake when he glanced at their reply again, and the smile on his face faded slightly.Even if his classmate had made a typo, judging from how aggressive their tone was, whatever they had originally intended to say probably wasn't anything nice.Still, Calvin couldn't help feeling upset. He didn't understand what was going on.They'd gotten along perfectly well at school before. So, why had his classmate suddenly started talking to him like this?Just as he was wondering whether he'd somehow offended them, another message appeared in the group chat."He's from a mistress's family. Do you really think he has the same sense of shame as the rest of us? Before this, he was always praising his sister and mother in front of us like they were the greatest people in the world. He even calle
Hannah had already guessed that Wynn might try calling Jordyn. And when she called, Jordyn happened to be taking a shower.Hannah simply hung up on Wynn's call.When Wynn saw that Jordyn wasn't answering, she sent a message. "Jo, I came to see you. Could you come downstairs and open the door for me?"Hannah saw the message and casually deleted it. She waited a little longer and finally relaxed when Wynn didn't call again.Wynn waited for a while, but when there was still no response from Jordyn, she pressed her lips together. She continued waiting there for a long time.It was almost midnight when she checked the time, yet she still hadn't seen Trevor's car. This time, she didn't wait any longer and drove away.When she returned home, Harvey and the rest of the family were still awake, all of them waiting for news from her. Linda was the first to stand up the moment she walked in."Wynn—"Wynn didn't look at her. Instead, she looked at everyone else who had turned toward her, t
After Celeste finished speaking, she exchanged a few words with the other Fleming Group executives before turning and leaving.Kieran followed behind her.Once they entered the elevator, Kieran couldn't help looking at her.Celeste noticed. "What is it?"Kieran shook his head. "Nothing."At Philip's banquet, Narcissa had said a great deal about Trevor and Celeste. Kieran naturally didn't believe her claims that Celeste had used underhanded means to marry Trevor.But what Narcissa had said about Celeste secretly loving Trevor since she was young, and Trevor never having feelings for her, was probably true.If that was the case, then now that Celeste was willing to divorce Trevor and remained so cold toward him whenever they met, did that mean she no longer loved him?But if she really no longer loved Trevor, why had she still refused to let him, Caleb, or Beck into her heart? Was it really simply because none of them matched the person she'd envisioned in her heart?Or perhaps
Celeste extended her hand and shook his. "Mr. Fleming, we just got here ourselves.""Please, have a seat."Celeste nodded and sat down, immediately steering the conversation back to business.Seeing the two of them looking so serious and completely absorbed in their work, without the slightest hint of any personal relationship between them, everyone else exchanged glances again.This certainly wasn't the first time Kieran had seen Celeste discussing business with Trevor.But in the past, he hadn't known—and had never imagined—that Trevor was Celeste's husband, the man she was about to divorce. So, seeing the two of them discussing business now felt completely different from before.In the past, whenever Celeste and Trevor discussed business, they had been strictly professional yet distant, barely exchanging another word beyond what was necessary for work.Kieran had assumed their coldness toward each other was because of the unpleasantness between Celeste and Wynn when Wynn want
A moment later, Wynn made another call.This time, she called Jacob.When Jacob saw her name on his screen, he was stunned for a moment. After hesitating briefly, he answered. "Ms. Locket.""Hello, Jacob. Sorry to bother you."Jacob naturally knew about what had happened at Philip's banquet. He had been no less shocked than Quentin and Narcissa. He had never imagined that Celeste and Wynn could have such a relationship.Jacob said, "It's alright, Ms. Locket. Is there something you need?"Wynn got straight to the point. "Would you be able to tell me where Trevor is right now?"Jacob wasn't actually aware of the full situation between Trevor and Wynn. But he did know about the trouble facing the Locket family and InnovaTech.So naturally, he also knew that Trevor hadn't stepped in to help them. With public opinion still running high, Jacob felt that Trevor's decision not to help the Locket family was the right one. But that didn't necessarily mean Trevor and Wynn had broken up.
