The Scent of 130

Wynn didn’t panic at all when she heard that Trevor was at the Rodriguez family’s party.

After all, Martha had such a close relationship with Betty. She’d definitely let Trevor attend Betty’s 70th birthday on her behalf since she couldn’t make it herself.

Wynn had known this long ago.

Still, she was a little upset even though Trevor was there because of Martha’s order.

When the crowd found out that Trevor went to the Rodriguez family’s party instead of coming here, they assumed something had happened between Wynn and Trevor.

Wynn remarked in a cold voice, “Madam Daniels and Madam Klein have a good relationship, and Trevor was only there as instructed by Madam Daniels.”

There had been rumors that the Rodriguez family and the Fleming family were on good terms.

– But people hadn’t seen them interacting with each other before, so they only took it as a rumor.

Perhaps it was true then, judging by what Wynn had said.

At that moment, someone came in.

They had a gift box in their hands, walking toward Wynn and the Shaws. “Ms. Locket, Mr. Fleming had an unexpected matter to attend to, so he might arrive late. He was worried about missing the party and asked me to bring a gift in his place,” the person said to Wynn.

Wynn took the gift and thanked him, “Alright, thank you.”

Given that Betty was friends with Martha, it made sense for Trevor to visit Betty first on her birthday before he came here.

It seemed Trevor had anticipated the guests to question his relationship with Wynn. So, even though he was at Betty’s birthday party, he thoughtfully arranged for the gift to be sent over first, showing his care and attention to Wynn.

Besides, it was basically impossible to claim that a person like Trevor didn’t care about Wynn after the thoughtfulness and kindness he showed toward her.

With that, the guests laughed awkwardly. Although the Shaws weren’t pleased to learn that Trevor had gone to Betty’s birthday party, they kept it to themselves. Once the awkward tension had lifted, Mason raised his glass and thanked the guests for coming.

Thanks to Mason, the atmosphere became lively again.

Wynn’s heart softened with warmth as she saw how considerate Trevor was. All her displeasure melted away too.

Noticing how Beck hadn’t come back, she asked Miles, “Why is Beck not back yet?”

“Let me call him to ask.”

Miles talked to Beck on the phone for a short while. After he had ended the call, he said, “Beck has something urgent to take care of, so he left. He said sorry, though.”

“It’s fine, I understand.”

Wynn then asked, “Did he say what kind of urgent work?”

“I didn’t ask.”

Miles didn’t pay attention to it at first, but he thought of something suddenly. “Could it be related to the person he likes?”

Wynn’s smile froze upon hearing that. “Beck hasn’t mentioned it for a while now, so I’m not sure,” she said in a slightly flat tone.

“You’re right.”

Miles rubbed his chin, smiling. “Why don’t we ask him next time?”

Wynn lowered her gaze and murmured a soft “okay“.

Meanwhile, after Trevor had settled himself down at the main table, he cast a glance at Celeste.

Celeste was surprised when he showed up just now.

But she calmed down quickly.

Noticing his gaze, she asked expressionlessly, “Is something wrong?”

Trevor then shifted his gaze. “Nothing,” he replied.
