Chapter 607
Trevor noticed him, and Kieran assumed it was simply because he knew Wynn.
When Trevor looked over, Kieran couldn’t even be bothered to raise his head to meet his gaze.
Trevor quickly withdrew his eyes.
Seeing that it was Trevor himself who had come to sign the contract with them, Matthias had initially wanted Celeste to leave. He would handle the discussion with Trevor instead.
However, the cooperation with Fleming Group had basically been handled by Celeste from the very beginning.
So, when it came to certain details, it was still more appropriate for Celeste to do the talking…
Celeste herself didn’t think much of it.
Her expression remained calm as she professionally discussed several issues in the contract with Trevor.
Although the cooperation between their two companies had not been personally handled by Trevor, once the discussion began, Celeste, Matthias, and Kieran all realized that Trevor was extremely familiar with the contents of their collaboration and many of the finer details.
No matter what Celeste brought up, he could respond smoothly. His negotiating attitude was also very agreeable. It once again demonstrated his sincerity in cooperating, while also expressing satisfaction with working together with YodaVision. 1
Seeing that, Matthias felt like he was getting even angrier. 2
While Trevor was reviewing the contract after all the details had been finalized, Matthias couldn’t help leaning over toward Celeste’s ear and whispering, “I kind of feel like punching someone right now.”
Celeste understood that he was irritated by Trevor.
She smiled silently, not taking it to heart, and gently patted his shoulder in a calming gesture.
Just as she finished doing that and lifted her gaze, she saw Jacob, who was sitting beside Trevor, looking at her.
Noticing her line of sight, her smile faded slightly. She then indifferently looked away, lowered her eyes, picked up the tea beside her, and took a light sip. 2
As Trevor’s secretary, Jacob naturally knew that the person originally meant to come to YodaVision to sign the
contract was not Trevor.
When Trevor had suddenly instructed him to notify Lazarus and his team that he would personally come to YodaVision to negotiate the contract, Jacob had been very surprised.
Was Trevor doing this purely because he placed exceptional importance on cooperating with YodaVision?
Judging from the long–term benefits that the partnership with YodaVision could bring to the company, perhaps
that was the case.
But Jacob also understood Trevor well.

Even for extremely important projects, Trevor had always been willing to entrust them to his subordinates, only stepping in to follow up when absolutely necessary.
Something like today was actually quite rare.
So…
He glanced at Celeste again.
He knew that Trevor’s attitude toward Celeste was completely different from before.
And Celeste, ever since leaving Fleming Group, seemed to be living better and better. 6
She no longer seemed to care as much about Trevor as she once did. 3
On the contrary, her relationship with Matthias genuinely looked very good.
Because of that, he could tell that Matthias had always found Trevor displeasing to the eye.
He also knew that Matthias trusted Celeste deeply, which was why he had handed over such an important project involving the Fleming Group entirely to her. 1
Celeste, of course, had no idea what Jacob was thinking. 7
After briefly going through the contract, Trevor signed his name without hesitation.
Pushing the documents toward Celeste, he capped the pen and let his gaze fall on both Celeste and Matthias.” How about a meal together later?” 2
Before Celeste could speak, Matthias picked up another copy of the documents.
With the same smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes, he said, “Thank you, Mr. Fleming, for the kind offer, but Cel and I still have other matters to handle this afternoon. We don’t have time. Let’s do it another time.”
Trevor smiled and said, “Is that so? But earlier, I heard from Lazarus that the two of you had already arranged to go out for a meal together with him after the contract signing…” 16
