Chapter 631
Miles received a phone call.
After glancing at the caller ID, he briefly greeted Wynn and the others, then told Trevor not to wait for him before turning to the other side to take the call.
Only after Miles had walked some distance away did Trevor speak. “You’re eating here too?”
Wynn replied. “Mm. When did you get back?”
“Last night.”
“Still not done with work?”
The elevator arrived. Trevor entered together with Wynn and the others. “Not yet.”
At that moment, a message came in on his phone. He nodded slightly at Wynn as a gesture, replied to two messages, and by then the elevator had already reached the ground floor.
After exiting the elevator, Wynn looked at him and asked, “Are you free tonight?” 1
“I already have plans,” Trevor said.
Wynn smiled faintly. “Next time then.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Trevor finished speaking, his phone rang again. He said to Wynn, “I still have something to handle. I need to head back to the company first.”
“Alright,” Wynn replied.
Trevor greeted Lilian, then turned and left. (1)
Although Linda was usually impulsive, she hadn’t dared to say a single word while Trevor was there.
Watching his retreating figure, her heart felt uncomfortable, and she murmured, “Trev… He’s so cold.” 2
It was the first time she had ever seen Trevor treat Wynn with such indifference.
So indifferent that anyone who didn’t know better would think they were merely strangers who had met a few
times.
Wasn’t it also the first time Lilian and the others had seen Trevor treat Wynn like this?
From Trevor’s cold attitude just now, it was as if things between him and Wynn had truly come to an end.
Lilian lowered her gaze and said calmly, “Let’s go back first.” (2)
Celeste’s business trip went quite smoothly.
After just two days, she returned to Baumond.

After getting off the plane, she was chatting with several engineers from the company when she suddenly received a call from Jordyn.
She picked it up casually. “Jo?”
After listening for a moment, she froze, then smiled. “Alright, I got it. I’ll come over right now.”
Most employees at YodaVision knew that Celeste was married and had a child.
But previously, they had never seen her answer a call from her child.
Hearing her talking on the phone, they immediately knew the caller was her daughter. Someone couldn’t help asking, “Is your daughter here at the airport to pick you up?”
Celeste smiled lightly. “Mm.”
“Wow, that’s so sweet.”
Celeste smiled again. Thinking of the location Jordyn had just mentioned, she said to the others, “My ride is over there, so I won’t be going with you. See you next week.”
“Alright, see you next week.”
In truth, the others were quite curious about Celeste’s daughter and wanted to see her as well, but since Celeste didn’t bring it up herself, they felt awkward asking.
Just as Celeste turned around, she saw someone in the distance waving excitedly at her and shouting, “Mom!”
She lifted her gaze and saw that it was Jordyn, and standing right behind Jordyn was Trevor. (5)
She hadn’t known that Trevor would also be there.
Her steps paused almost imperceptibly.
Then, as if nothing had happened, she continued walking toward them.
The others from YodaVision also heard that shout of “Mom.” When they turned back, they realized the little girl seemed to be calling Celeste.
However, they were too far away to see Jordyn’s face clearly. 1
They hesitated for a moment, about to get into the car, when someone with sharp eyes noticed the man standing behind Jordyn. “That… Is that Ms. Rodriguez’s husband?” (10)
