Celeste withdrew her gaze as Yandel and the others called her over to help answer some technical questions. Without giving Trevor another thought, she turned away and walked over to them.Just as she turned, Miles noticed her.At that moment, Wynn had walked over to Harvey, separating from Trevor.Miles nudged Trevor in the side with his elbow and motioned in Celeste's direction. "Over thereâyour wife is here too."Trevor followed his gesture and looked over. He spotted Celeste.She was holding a tablet and standing slightly to the side while explaining the technical concepts of an exhibit to Yandel and the others.Celeste and Yandel were deeply engaged in their discussion. They were completely unaware of Trevor's gaze.Miles paused for a moment before commenting, "Who are those people with your wife? Is she explaining the core technology of the exhibit to them? Is your wife actually this skilled?"Trevor kept his gaze fixed on Celeste, neither looking away nor speaking.At th

Harvey and Lennox's purpose in attending the tech expo was to build connections.Of course, after Trevor arrived, Harvey and Lennox kept an eye on him while networking, curious to see how he would react upon seeing Celeste.However, they realized that when Trevor saw Celeste⊠he had no reaction at all. It was as if he were looking at a stranger. He didn't even bother to glance at her again.Rumor had it that years ago, Celeste had used underhanded tactics to force Trevor into marriage. He had no feelings for her whatsoever.Even after marriage, he rarely stayed at home. All he had for Celeste was disgust.It seemed the rumors were true.As the expo's main conference was about to begin, event staff notified the key company representatives to head to the conference hall for the summary meeting.Representing YodaVision at the conference were Matthias and Celeste.They walked ahead.Seeing that Celeste was allowed into the conference hall, Wynn and Lennox were quite surprised.Le

Zachary's name was renowned worldwide, yet he was still quite youngâjust in his early forties.Tall and lean, he wore frameless glasses. As soon as the host finished speaking, he walked onto the stage amid thunderous applause.Reaching the center of the podium, he cast a calm glance over the audience, and the entire hall instantly fell silent.He slowly began, "Thank you very much to the organizers for the sincere invitationâŠ"After briefly exchanging formalities, he gave a concise summary of the exhibits at the expo, offering recognition and insights. He then answered several questions from company representatives in the audience.Many wanted to ask questions, but time was limited. After about half an hour, Zachary stepped down from the stage.The conference continued with other segments, and as Zachary left the stage, he walked toward the front-row seat that had been reserved for him by the organizers.As he walked past, the business executives seated in the front row all stoo
The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 57
As soon as people received the news, many rushed toward the front rows.However, by the time those seated further back managed to squeeze their way forward, Zachary was already surrounded by the prominent figures who had been seated in the front row.Wynn was also in the front row, but she didn't attempt to speak with Zachary.Seeing this, Lennox grew anxious and waved her over.Wynn noticed and walked toward her. "Aunt Lennox."She understood what Lennox meant, so before her aunt could even speak, she said, "Mr. Newman is currently surrounded by influential figures. Even if I squeeze in to talk to him, I wouldn't get much time. Trevor said it's better to find another opportunity to speak with him privately later.""That's trueâŠ" Lennox finally realized she had been too impatient.The people around Trevor were all top-tier business magnates whom they normally wouldn't even have the chance to approach. Wanting Wynn to expand her network, Lennox gave her a little push, urging her

Matthias and Celeste immediately felt a chill down their spines.Matthias quickly said, "We're already preparing a new product. We should have a prototype by next year.""Mm." Zachary responded indifferently, then added, "Until you have it ready, don't come see me again.""UnderstoodâŠ""Send me a review by tonight."Celeste and Matthias instantly realized that Zachary was referring to a technical summary of today's expo."UnderstoodâŠ"After a brief pause, Matthias hesitantly said, "Uh⊠Mr. Newman, finishing it in one night⊠might be a bit difficult."In reality, "a bit difficult" was a huge understatement. It was practically impossible.Then, he continued, "Would⊠one month be okay?"With so many exhibits and technologies to analyze, he estimated that the summary would be at least tens of thousands of words; if not, over a hundred thousand. How could they possibly complete it in one night?Zachary didn't respond. He simply stared at them.Though he always appeared refined a

Wynn would probably be drowned in public opinion if that happened.This made it obvious how blatantly biased Harvey was toward Wynn.Harvey didn't want to associate with Celeste in this kind of setting, but he couldn't bear to miss the chance to connect with Matthias.So, when Celeste went to the restroom, he, Wynn, and Lennox approached Matthias.Introducing himself, Harvey said, "Mr. Yoder, hello, I'm Harvey Locket, father of both Wynn and Celeste. It's a pleasure to meet you."Matthias politely shook his hand and replied, "So, you're Mr. Locket. Nice to meet you."Harvey glanced at Wynn and continued, "Celeste has a bit of a stubborn personality, and there have been some misunderstandings between her and Wynn. As her father, I've always hoped they could get along well, but unfortunately, no matter what I say, Celeste just won't listenâŠ"Matthias feigned realization. "Oh, is that so?""Yes." Harvey sighed but then smiled. "Still, I'm very happy that Celeste has the opportunit

Wynn also saw Celeste. She remained composed and said to Matthias, "We have something to attend to, so we'll leave first. Let's talk another time.Matthias shook hands with them. "Alright, let's catch up next time."Without sparing Celeste another glance, Wynn turned and left with Harvey and the others.âŠMatthias' status and reputation naturally attracted attention, and by noon, several influential figures approached him with invitations to lunch.From what they hinted, Trevor would also be attending.Trevor's table would likely gather industry leaders, making it an ideal opportunity to delve into the future direction of AI. Essentially, the market's trajectory was tied to the decisions of these individuals.This was not just a chance to glean insights but also to build connections. If the discussions went well, collaborations could be finalized right at the dining table.Matthias was indeed tempted.He turned to Celeste while silently seeking her opinion.With Trevor presen

If Celeste dared to cause a scene, it would undoubtedly upset Trevor.Given what she knew about Celeste and Trevor's marital status, Celeste wouldn't dare provoke him. After all, if she did, it would only deepen Trevor's disdain for her.Lennox felt somewhat reassured after hearing this, but she was still worried that Trevor might treat Wynn too kindly, which could be too much for Celeste to bear.Celeste, however, paid no attention to what they were thinking. She wasn't even particularly aware of their interactions, as she was more focused on the person sitting beside herâBryson Leonard.Bryson had known that Celeste would be attending the expo and had made a point to greet her earlier at the event.The last time they met at a banquet, they had an engaging conversation. He had been wanting to connect with her again since, but both of them had been too busy. Now that they had run into each other, he wasn't going to let the opportunity pass.Not long after they were seated, he str

After dinner, Jordyn followed Celeste back to the Rodriguez residence.That night, she received a call from Rowan, inviting her and Matthias to play golf the next morning.Celeste agreed. However, when she saw the address Rowan sent, she hesitated for a moment.The golf course happened to be a property owned by the Fleming family. She had been there before.Still, since she had already agreed, it wouldn't be appropriate to back out now.âŠEarly Saturday morning, she drove out as planned.When she and Matthias arrived at the golf course, Rowan, Theodore, and Harold were already there.Seeing them, Rowan and the others greeted them with a smile, "You're here."Celeste nodded.Rowan asked, "Do you know how to play golf?"Celeste nodded again. "I've learned a bit."After some polite small talk, they began playing golf while chatting casually.Not long after, just as Celeste was putting away her club, she saw two people walking toward them from a distance.It was Trevor and Wy

Although Celeste and Matthias had already asked Candice to politely decline Cayden's request for a meeting, he still showed up uninvited two days later.Since he had come in person, Celeste and Matthias couldn't completely refuse to see him.They gave him a brief, symbolic reception, but after chatting for just over ten minutes, they politely sent him off.After that, whenever Cayden tried to arrange another meeting, they simply ignored him.With Celeste and Matthias maintaining a firm stance, and unable to meet with them, Cayden invited Wynn out for a meal the next day instead.During the meal, Cayden chatted with her about the developments in the industry for a while before saying, "If you had joined YodaVision last year, you would've grown so much by now. What a shame."At their last meeting, Cayden had asked about her current situation. After hearing she hadn't gotten into YodaVision, he didn't comment much.But now, recalling the matter, he couldn't help expressing his regr

Celeste didn't care how Trevor thought of her or looked at her, nor was she interested.After leaving the restaurant, Celeste and Matthias' group headed back to Fleming Tech for a meeting.This time, Lilian and Linda didn't follow. But Wynn did.Seeing Wynn come along again, Matthias secretly rolled his eyes and said, "Mr. Fleming, about Ms. Locketâ"Trevor seemed to know what he wanted to say.Before Matthias could finish, Trevor spoke up, "If you're concerned about confidentiality, you don't have to worry. If anything does happen, I'll take full responsibility."Matthias had expected him to say that. After all, when they first started working with InnovaTech, Trevor had said exactly the same thing.Even so, Matthias still needed clear assurance.Hearing Trevor's words, Matthias put on a half-hearted smile and said, "I feel better with your assurance."During the meeting in the morning, the seat at the center of the table was occupied by Trevor alone. Now that Wynn was here,

Before Trevor could respond, his phone rang.He stepped outside to take the call, and by the time he returned, the food was being served.Miles' question was left hangingâbrushed aside just like that.Right now, the author of the paper that engineers in the country and abroad were scrambling to read was sitting right in front of them.As the meal progressed, Rodney and his students couldn't help but ask Celeste questions as they skimmed through the paper's core content and experimental data.Whether they asked about specific parts of the paper or about broader problems that had puzzled them in their own research, Celeste responded to everything fluently and confidently.Wynn watched in silence. Her heart was calm.Watching Celeste speak so assuredly with Rodney and the others actually seemed like she did know what she was talking about.But was that really possible?Given Matthias' capabilities, if he was willing to credit Celeste as first author, then he must have ensured she

It really was Celeste?Even though Jorge, Lilian, and Linda didn't specialize in AI and couldn't fully grasp how groundbreaking Celeste's paper was, they did know one thingâWynn's advisor, Cayden, was a major figure in the AI world.A world-renowned expert like him paying this much attention to a paperâpersonally messaging Wynn and urging her to study it thoroughlyâwas a huge deal.On top of that, Rodney's student had just said Celeste's paper had caused a massive stir both at home and abroad, with top engineers staying up all night to read it.All of this pointed to one thing: Celeste's paper had real weight. But how could such a powerful paper possibly have come from Celeste?Rodney, not knowing who Celeste was or her history with the Lockets and the Shaws, hadn't read the paper yet.Still, just hearing that it had increased large language model efficiency for long-text processing over tenfold was already enough to get him excited.He immediately turned to Matthias and asked,

Linda looked smugly at Celeste.Lilian also felt genuinely happy for her daughter. Celeste, as usual, couldn't even be bothered to look in their direction.She quietly lowered her head and sipped her tea, blending into the background, not participating in the discussion between Wynn and Rodney at all.Seeing Wynn receiving so much admiration from all these seasoned experts, Jorge finally felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.Just then, Cayden sent another message to Wynn."YodaVision is a truly astonishing and innovative company. Not only is its founder Matthias, but many of the engineers under him are highly creative. "I'll likely visit again soon. I hope to have an in-depth conversation with Matthias and some of his engineers."The NMI journal adopted a strict double-blind review process, where reviewers couldn't see the identities of the authors. So until now, Cayden had no idea who had actually written the paper he was so impressed with.Wynn saw his message and ass

As soon as the words were spoken, a knock sounded at the private dining room door.It was Miles and Beck.Miles pushed the door open, and upon seeing how many people were already inside, he exclaimed in surprise, "Whoa, so many people?"This restaurant was owned by his family.He and Beck had just come over for a meal. After hearing from the restaurant manager that Trevor was dining here, they decided to drop by and say helloâthey didn't expect such a large gathering.And on top of that, it was full of familiar faces.Seeing so many people there, Miles instantly felt that just the two of them dining alone would be no fun, so he asked, "Trevor, since there are already so many here, do you mind if Beck and I join as well?"Trevor turned and asked, "Professor Milford, Mr. Yoder, I wonder ifâ"Since Rodney had just voluntarily invited the Lockets and the Shaws to join, Trevor couldn't very well refuse his own friends.Rodney replied graciously, "Of course, I don't mind. I wonder w

Exchange ideas? There was no way Matthias and Wynn could exchange anything meaningful.Of course, with so many people present, there was no need for him to say that out loud to Rodney. After all, he and Rodney were just casual acquaintances.Instead, he gave a perfunctory smile and said, "You're right, Professor."Rodney was pretty well-known in the AI field in the country.The Lockets and the Shaws also assumed that Matthias would look more favorably on Wynn because she was a student under Cayden, a leading expert in the field.And now, hearing how much Rodney admired Wynn, Linda looked smugly at Celeste.Wynn was a student under someone as prestigious as Cayden Sweeney. But Celeste? What was she? In front of Wynn, Celeste was nothing.That was how Lilian, Harvey, and the others saw it too.When Trevor called Wynn earlier, Lilian, Harvey, and the rest were all there.When they heard there would be a group lunch, they decided to drop by as well. But to be fair, they weren't t

As soon as she finished speaking, before Caleb could respond, Celeste's communicator rang.Seeing the message on the device, she quickly said, "Something urgent came up at the data center, I have to go," and hurried off.âŠThe next morning, Celeste left the military base.After taking a day off to rest at home, she returned to work at YodaVision.YodaVision had officially begun its collaboration with Fleming Tech. The day she returned to YodaVision, Matthias happened to be heading there for a meeting.Previously, when negotiating the contract with Trevor, she could step aside and let Matthias or Joseph handle the discussions.But this new project between YodaVision and Fleming Tech required her direct involvement to move forward.This meeting was to discuss core technology cooperation between the two companies. So, after returning to YodaVision, Celeste accompanied Matthias to the Fleming Group.Along with them were Kieran and other technical staff.Just as they reached the m
