LOGINMatthias recognised Trevor's number too.He snorted. "What's he calling for? Is he going to ask you to plead with Velotra on the Locket family's behalf? Has he really sunk that low?"Celeste said nothing and answered the call.Before she could speak, Trevor spoke first. "Jo's had a fever all day. If you're free tonight, could you find some time to come and check on her?"Celeste frowned. "She's had a fever for that long? How is she now?""She's still on an IV drip, and her temperature hasn't come down yet.""Understood. I'll go over later.""Sorry to trouble you."Celeste said nothing before ending the call. She finished handing over her outstanding work, then left YodaVision.When she arrived, Hannah heard she was back and hurried out to greet her. "Mrs. Fleming, you're back!""I'm going upstairs to see Jo."Upstairs, Jordyn had just finished her IV drip and was sleeping in a daze. Celeste entered the room and sat beside the bed, looking at Jo's furrowed brows as she gently
"You're welcome," Miles replied politely.Velotra had come at them aggressively and seemed to possess a substantial amount of evidence. Both the Lockets and Shaws, as well as Miles and Beck, knew this would be a difficult lawsuit to win.However, once the trial officially began, the expressions on the faces of the Lockets and Shaws grew increasingly grim. Even Miles and Beck frowned.Velotra's evidence was solid. The contracts, transaction records, chat logs, and expert assessment reports were all thoroughly documented. As for the 2.5 billion dollars in compensation Velotra was demanding, they had initially assumed the company was simply asking for an outrageous amount.In reality, Velotra had already been doing well over the past two years. On top of that, its collaboration with YodaVision over the past year had further strengthened its competitiveness in the market.The technology they had allegedly infringed upon was also one of the core components of their hundred-billion-doll
After the plane landed, Wynn switched on her phone and checked it. Trevor still hadn't replied to her message.She and Conrad had no further interaction. Once they got off the plane, they went their separate ways.When the Lockets and Shaws learned that Wynn hadn't managed to see Trevor, they were all rather disappointed. What made them even more anxious, however, was the fact that the trial between Locket Tech and Velotra was only a few days away.Linda felt a sinking feeling in her heart and couldn't help asking, "Wynn, do you think Trev will come back for the trial?"Wynn replied, "...I don't know."A few more days passed in the blink of an eye, and the trial between Locket Tech and Velotra finally began.Celeste and the others had returned from their trip two days before the trial. On the day of the hearing, she and Matthias went to YodaVision as usual.Matthias sat on the sofa and rubbed his chin as he spoke to Celeste. "The trial between Locket Tech and Velotra is today. T
The receptionist lowered her voice. "That's Conrad Mercer, the current heir of the Mercer family here in Havenport."So, that was who he was.Although Wynn rarely visited Havenport, she knew a little about its most prominent and powerful families. But only a little.She had heard of Conrad's name before, but this was the first time she had met him in person. Remembering the cold, indifferent look he had given her earlier, she frowned again.However, she had no time to dwell on it. After thanking the receptionist, she called Jacob.Jacob was still asleep. The phone rang for a while before he finally woke up. Seeing that the call was from Wynn, he was somewhat surprised, but answered quickly. "Ms. Locket? It's so early. Is something—"Wynn cut him off and asked directly, "Were you the one who accompanied Trevor on his business trip to Havenport?""No."By then, Jacob had already figured out why she was calling. "Neither was Zeke. Mr. Fleming's itinerary this time was probably arr
"Please take good care of Jo over the next few days."After reading Trevor's message, Celeste didn't reply.…Meanwhile, Wynn only learned that Trevor had gone on a business trip to Havenport after seeing the news online.The trial involving Locket Tech and Velotra was about to begin. If Velotra won the case, they might have to sacrifice almost everything they had, including InnovaTech, just to cover the compensation.Losing InnovaTech wouldn't matter, as long as…After reading the news, Wynn immediately booked a flight to Havenport. She then called Miles.Seeing her call at such a late hour, Miles still answered. "Why are you calling so late? Has something happened?""I'm heading to Havenport now to see Trevor. Do you know which hotel he's staying at and his room number? I want to surprise him."Miles didn't suspect anything. "Oh, I see. I'll make a few calls and find out for you.""Okay. Thank you, Miles."Wynn paused before adding a reminder. "Oh, and please be discreet w
Betty smiled. "I don't think she's lost much weight. She just looks like she's grown into herself a little. She's looking more and more like Cel."Celeste and the family decided to head south, where they planned to explore the scenery and visit famous historical sites.They went white-water rafting, climbed mountains, walked across glass bridges, and took part in local cultural activities. They also sampled plenty of famous local delicacies.After a few days of travelling, Celeste could tell that Jordyn was having a wonderful time. Moreover, she had grown closer to the rest of the Rodriguez family as well.On the evening of the third day, just after they returned to the hotel, Matthias sent Celeste a message. When she opened it, she discovered that he had sent her a screenshot of a news article.The article was about Trevor.Before she had even finished reading the text in the screenshot, Matthias sent another message."I heard he flew to Havenport this time specifically for thi
