The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 265

Chapter 265

The YodaVision banquet took place three days after the Harper Corporation’s banquet.

That evening, Beck arrived quite early

Perhaps because Wynn, Trevor, and Jorge weren’t present, nothing major happened at the YodaVision banquet. There were quite a lot of guests that night.

Celeste and Matthias were extremely busy and didn’t have touch time to pay special attention to Beck.

It wasn’t until halfway through the banquet, when they saw Bleck chatting with Ivan, that they suddenly realized he hadn’t left.

After all, the Locket family was hosting their own banquet that evening as well.

They had assumed Beck had arrived early so he could leave midway to attend the Locket family’s banquet. But unexpectedly.

Matthias, quite satisfied, couldn’t help but comment, “Now this is what it means to value a partnership with YodaVision. Look at this textbook example. And that Jorge Tsk, I don’t even want to talk about him.”

Celeste was also a little surprised

Since Beck was showing them such respect, it wouldn’t be right for her and Matthias to neglect him.

They walked over and greeted him politely, “Mr. Harper, we have a lot of guests tonight. If our hospitality has been lacking in any way, please forgive us.”

Throughout the evening, Beck’s gaze had occasionally lingered on Celeste–though no one seemed to notice.

Raising his glass, he clinked it lightly against theirs, took a sip, and said, “We’re all friends here. No need to be so formal,”

Although their collaboration had been smooth so far, Matthias never considered them to be friends. And he certainly didn’t take Beck’s words seriously–it was just social niceties.

Still, he had to admit he appreciated Beck’s ability to set aside personal grievances and focus solely on business.

Even though Beck was speaking to Matthias, his attention was actually on Celeste.

Tonight’s banquet was mainly for Matthias and Celeste.

Despite having Matthias’s protection, Celeste had still ended up drinking quite a bit.

Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes slightly misty, making her look a little softer than usual–almost cute.

Beck’s grip on his wine glass tightened slightly before he slowly shifted his gaze away.

Although Celeste had been drinking, she wasn’t drunk.

As the banquet was coming to an end, she walked Beck to the entrance.

He stopped just before stepping out.

A winter wind blew through the doorway, and his gaze fell on the small portion of her slender leg visible beneath her soft, flowing gown.

“You don’t need to see me off any further.”

Celeste nodded. “Alright. Take care.”

Beck looked at her, as if he wanted to say something. But after a brief pause, he held back and simply turned to leave.

Once the important guests had left, Celeste finally got into Ivan’s car and left the hotel. However, Beck didn’t actually leave yet.

He was worried that Celeste might run into trouble after denking.

Only after seeing her safely get into Ivan’s car and drive away did he tell his driver, “Let’s go.”

The next morning, Celeste woke up and was having breakfast while Adeline and Betty were discussing preparations for the Ember Festival.

Tomorrow would be the Ember Festival’s Eve. Starting today, the company was officially on holiday.

Celeste said, “I’ll go with you two.”

Betty beamed. “Alright, alright, we’ll go together.

Then, after a slight pause, she hesitated before asking, “Cel is Jo spending the holidays with the Fleming family this year?”

At the mention of Jordyn, Celeste’s smile faded slightly. “I think so.”

That day when she had received Kevin, she had run into Trevor in the elevator. He had subtly hinted that he hoped she would take care of Jordyn.

But after that, neither Trevor nor Jordyn had reached out to her again.
