Chapter 248

Author: Cloudsearcher
Technically, she was still married.

And with where things stood between them, saying something like that would be inappropriate.

After seeing Beck off, Celeste quickly headed back upstairs.

He watched her go, lingering for a moment before turning to James Ford, one of his company's core engineers, and said, "I need your help with something."

"Of course," James replied.

"A friend of mine is looking to study natural language processing in depth but needs an elite mentor…"

James listened and, given their rapport, agreed without question.

However, he paused for a moment before continuing, "I may have some expertise in this field, but to be honest, I don't think I measure up to Mr. Yoder from YodaVision or Ms. Rodriguez, who has been handling our collaboration discussions. So, if you're looking for the best guidance, Ms. Rodriguez or Mr. Yoder might be better choices."

Beck was a little surprised when he heard what James had said.

His background was in finance, and AI wasn't h

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 404

    "He's never shown up?" Kieran asked."Yeah." Another colleague chimed in, "That's why a lot of us think Ms. Rodriguez is probably already divorced. I mean, it's been more than half a year, and she hasn't even mentioned him once.""Exactly."That actually made sense.If Celeste weren't divorced, would Caleb dare to pursue her so publicly?Still, Kieran couldn't calm down. It had never crossed his mind that Celeste had already been married.As he sat there in a daze, Celeste walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"He wanted to ask, "Is it true that you're married?"But this was the workplace, and asking personal questions like that—especially of a superior—wasn't appropriate. It might be alright once in a while, but any more would be crossing a line.Snapping back to reality, he just said, "It's nothing."…That afternoon, Celeste received a phone call.After hanging up, before the end of the workday, she told Matthias, "I might only come in tomorrow afternoon. Can you attend

    Caleb extended his hand with a polite smile. "Caleb Jennings."Kieran shook it firmly.As their eyes locked, it was as if an unspoken message passed between them: "We'll each rely on our own skills to win her over."After the handshake, Caleb turned back to Celeste."My coming here made you uncomfortable, didn't it?"It did.But she responded tactfully, "A little.""I figured as much. I knew you'd feel uncomfortable, but I still came." His tone was calm, even apologetic."Because I felt that if I didn't try, I'd never know if you might change your mind. But now I've tried, and I know the answer. I'll be more mindful from now on."So, he was planning to keep pursuing her?Before Celeste could respond, Caleb turned to Matthias. "Let's save the YodaVision tour for next time. I won't disturb you further."Matthias had a good impression of Caleb. If Celeste were to start a new relationship after her divorce, he genuinely thought Caleb could be a decent choice.But since Celeste

    Kieran had all the makings of a perfect partner, which made Linda nearly jump out of the car in protest."No way! What if Mr. Gibson really falls for that bitch? Then we'll lose a friend and add an enemy!"Ruby just chuckled, unconcerned. She lightly tapped her daughter's head and said, "Silly girl. With Wynn shining like a gem, how could Mr. Gibson really fall for Celeste?"Over the years, she had seen firsthand just how irresistible Wynn was to men.Wynn said nothing.She wasn't about to comment on whether Patricia's strategy would work—but like Ruby, she was confident Kieran wouldn't be swayed by Celeste.She knew exactly how deeply Kieran loved her. She had absolute confidence in that.Lilian, though silent, shared the same view that Kieran wouldn't truly fall for Celeste.With that point firmly settled, she finally said, "Because of the missed opportunity with YodaVision, Wynn has lost so much in recent months. Meanwhile, Celeste used that very opportunity to launch hersel

    "No need, I've already eaten. But thank you," Celeste answered. To be honest, Caleb's confession was actually quite moving. But…The reason she had taken Caleb's call in the first place was to clear things up once and for all.So, she spoke seriously, with calm conviction, "I really appreciate your feelings for me. But just as you said, I really don't have any plans to start a new relationship right now. So, I'm sorry. And please don't wait for me."She noticed Caleb was about to respond again, hesitated briefly, and then decisively hung up the call.With her phone still in hand, she stood still, emotions tangled and heavy.After a long moment, a bitter smile tugged at her lips. She turned and went back to the private room.She had been gone quite a while.Once Matthias had figured out the reason for Caleb's call, he was dying to know what exactly was going on between them. Seeing how long their phone call lasted only made him more curious.As soon as Celeste returned, he lea

    Celeste thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "I'll tell you later. I'm going to take this call."After greeting Bryson and the others, she turned and stepped out of the private room with her phone.Watching her leave, Matthias suddenly processed what was happening. His eyes widened in disbelief.Though he had wondered once whether there might be something between them at a banquet last year, when he saw Celeste dancing with Caleb.But that idea had faded since they'd had no further contact afterward.So, how could this be happening now?Hearing Matthias questioning Celeste, Kieran instinctively looked over at her.He didn't know Caleb, had never heard of him.But when he saw the hint of discomfort on Celeste's face, he immediately sensed something unusual. And Matthias' reaction only confirmed his suspicion.So, this Caleb... Could he and Celeste really—?Trevor knew Caleb.So, after hearing Matthias speak, he casually glanced toward Celeste. At first, he only meant

    At noon, Celeste and Trevor's group arrived at the restaurant for lunch after their meeting.Just as they walked up to their private dining room, the door of the room next to them suddenly opened.As if afraid people wouldn't hear, Linda called out loudly, "Trev!"Seeing Wynn was there as well, Bryson smiled and said, "So, Ms. Locket is dining here too—what a coincidence."Wynn smiled. "Quite the coincidence indeed."Though she said that, the truth was that this encounter wasn't coincidental at all.The news that Trevor and Celeste had officially gone to the courthouse that morning to file for divorce had already reached their entire family.When Linda learned that Trevor would be dining in the area at noon—and that Celeste would be there too—she deliberately had their own private room arranged directly opposite theirs.That was how this "coincidental" meeting happened.The thought that Trevor had immediately called Celeste to file the divorce paperwork right after settling th

    On Isabelle's birthday, Celeste received a reminder from Trevor about their divorce.How fitting.Just then, Jason continued, "Mr. Fleming said if you're free on Monday, he'd like to meet at the courthouse at nine in the morning to handle the paperwork. Ms. Rodriguez, does that work for you?"Celeste replied, "I'm free Monday morning.""Alright," Jason said. "I'll let his lawyer know.""Okay."Aside from Jason's call, there were also several missed calls from Trevor.He was likely calling for the same reason. So, she didn't bother calling him back.She spent the weekend at the Rodriguez residence.…On Monday morning, Celeste drove out a little after eight.When she arrived at the entrance of the courthouse, Trevor was already there.She hadn't taken their marriage certificate with her when she moved out. So today, he'd brought both the marriage certificate and the divorce agreement with him.Back when they registered their marriage, he hadn't even waited for her afterward

    Although Celeste and Wynn both attended the symposium at Quendall University, they had absolutely no interaction the entire day.By around three in the afternoon, Celeste and Matthias were preparing to leave the university.As Bryson and the chancellor walked them out, Bryson extended another invitation, "There's another seminar this Saturday. I wonder if the two of you..."Celeste paused in her steps as her gaze happened to fall on Lilian, who was standing not far away. She quickly looked away, pressed her lips together, then replied, "I'm sorry, I have something important to attend to on Saturday. I won't be able to make it."After saying their goodbyes to Bryson and the chancellor, Matthias finally asked once their car had pulled away from Quendall University, "Something was off with your mood just now. What happened?"He had noticed her subtle emotional shift the moment Bryson mentioned Saturday's event, especially when her gaze landed on Lilian.Since there were others aro

    Some time ago, when Cayden found out that a paper he had highly praised during peer review was actually written by someone from YodaVision, he made a special trip to Ceravelle just to meet Celeste and Matthias.During that visit, he told her that if she had joined YodaVision when she returned to Ceravelle last year, she would have made significant progress.At that time, she wholeheartedly agreed and felt that Celeste had deliberately blocked her from entering YodaVision, causing her to miss a crucial opportunity for personal development.But now, seeing so clearly how much Celeste had grown in less than a year by staying at Matthias' side, she realized she may have lost far more than she originally thought.After all, it wasn't just Matthias—there was also Zachary.Zachary's formidable strength, along with his access to the most up-to-date and critical information in the field, played a huge role in the growth of both Matthias and Celeste.Just as her mother had said, if she had
