LOGINThe next morning, after Jordyn woke up, she remembered what had happened the night before and reached for the phone beside her.A moment later, she put it down, pursed her little lips, and curled up under the covers again.Hannah pushed the door open. Seeing that she was awake, she asked, "Do you want to get washed up first and then come downstairs for breakfast?"Jordyn stared at the ceiling without saying a word.Seeing this, Hannah seemed to know what she was thinking and said, "Mrs. Fleming sent me a message this morning asking how you're doing."Jordyn immediately sat up in bed. "What did Mom say?"Hannah smiled. "She asked if you were feeling better and whether you slept well."As she spoke, she handed Jordyn the phone.Jordyn took it.Celeste's message contained only two short lines. She really had asked whether Jordyn was feeling better and if she had slept well.It was very brief.Jordyn stared at the message for a long time without saying anything."Jo?" Hannah ha
Trevor said, "I know what I'm doing."When Lincoln first learned about Trevor and Wynn's relationship, he, like everyone else, had tried to persuade his son to reconsider.Back then, Trevor had given him the exact same answer. Lincoln knew what that meant. Trevor didn't want him to interfere too much.Trevor usually appeared quite respectful toward his father, but whenever he was unwilling, he basically never listened. And if Trevor refused to listen, there really wasn't much Lincoln could do about it.As for matters concerning the company, he knew Trevor was capable of handling them. So, he didn't say anything more. After exchanging a few more words with his son, he hung up.Trevor handed the phone back to Peter, then knocked on the door again. "Jo, can we talk?"There was still no response.Trevor knocked for a while longer. When Jordyn still didn't answer, he asked Hannah, "Did she cry on the way home?"Hannah nodded. "Yes."And she had cried quite badly. After all, Jordyn
There had been a network connection before the banquet, and no audio interference had been in place…. Despite that, this happened precisely while their confrontation was taking place…Matthias asked, "Was it an accident, or did someone know something like this was going to happen tonight and make preparations in advance?"Kieran shook his head. "No idea. According to the people who posted the videos online, the network in the banquet hall only returned to normal quite a while after we left. That's when they were able to record audio normally again."At that time, they had already reached the upper floor. Everyone was waiting for them in the meeting room, so they didn't continue the discussion.However, the moment they entered the conference room, everyone's eyes instinctively fell on Celeste. They had all seen the news about her online.They had always known that Celeste was married and had a child. They also had always been curious about who her husband was. But they had never im
Wynn pushed her thoughts aside and sent Trevor a message. "How is Jo doing now?"…Meanwhile, Kieran and Celeste had been discussing work for a while in the car. His phone suddenly rang when Celeste was talking about something else with Matthias.It was a friend calling. "You were there tonight, right? Are the things online true? Holy crap, this is explosive!"Kieran paused and gave a brief response before hanging up. He glanced at Celeste and Matthias in the back seat before opening his phone.He did a quick search and saw countless posts about Celeste, Trevor, and Wynn appearing. Just as his friend had said, everything that happened that night had already been posted online.The Internet was flooded with photos of Celeste, Trevor and Wynn. There were photos of Trevor and Celeste together and some photos of Celeste with Jordyn and Trevor with Jordyn, respectively.The comments were filled with shock and disbelief."Holy crap, Celeste and Trevor are actually married? Are you se
Linda and Erin were also stunned. "What court summons?"Wynn snapped out of her daze and walked over.The summons stated that Velotra was suing them for "misappropriation of trade secrets".Wynn frowned. As far as she knew, Locket Tech had never had any dealings with Velotra. Why would they suddenly sue them?But that wasn't the most important thing right now. What mattered was—Lilian pointed to the amount being claimed on the copy of the complaint and said coldly, "Look here."Wynn leaned over. Before she could say anything, Linda spotted the figure first and immediately paled. "500 million! They're demanding 500 million from us?"Wynn saw the figure as well, but then noticed something else. "They're also seeking punitive damages that are five times the amount."In other words, Velotra was demanding 2.5 billion dollars from them.Wynn finally understood why her parents' expressions had changed so drastically.When Erin and Patricia heard this, their faces changed as well.
Beck answered, "He knows."His tone was certain.Miles also thought that Trevor must be aware of everything. He just didn't expect him to remain so firmly by Wynn's side despite knowing about the relationship between Celeste and Wynn, as well as the history between the Shaws and Rodriguezes.Ever since Wynn had appeared in Trevor's life, Miles had always thought that Trevor loved her deeply. But he had never imagined that he could love her to this extent…Miles didn't voice these thoughts aloud, but Beck could already tell what was going through his mind.After all, he felt the same way. He, too, had never expected Trevor to love Wynn this much.In fact, many of the guests at the banquet had already realized that Trevor had known all along about the relationship between Celeste and Wynn, as well as the history between the two families.It was just that when Trevor was there, no one had dared to say it to his face.…Meanwhile, inside the Locket family's car, there was complete
