Xavier continued, “Then how about you talk to Matthias? You and Matthias have some connection, right?”

Caleb replied, “I could, but I don’t think Matthilas would listen.”

From the way Celeste had looked when she agreed to switch dance partners that night, Caleb had sensed that she and Matthias were not in a romantic relationship.

But at the same time, it was clear that Matthias valued Celeste deeply.

He didn’t believe that even if he helped Jorge reconcile with Matthias, Matthias would suddenly agree to collaborate with Jorge

“So, we still have to focus on Ms. Rodriguez? But we don’t loow much about her. How should we approach her? Should we get someone to look into her background?” Xavier lamented.

Jorge shook his head. “Forget it. I don’t want to waste any more time on her. I’ll just reach out to my old man later.

Caleb immediately caught on. “You mean you want to go through Mr. Newman?”

“Exactly.”

Matthias was Zachary’s student. If Zachary spoke up, Jorge believed Matthias would budge.

Without hesitation, he decided to call Theodore.

On his way home after dinner, Jorge was about to call Theodore. But before he could, Theodore’s call came through first.

Getting straight to the point, Theodore asked, “How are the negotiations with YodaVision going?”

Jorge decided to be honest. “They didn’t go through. I was just about to ask for your help.

“What do you mean?”

“I offended an engineer at YodaVision, and for her sake, Matthias_”

Theodore cut him off. “What’s that engineer’s name?”

Jorge was momentarily stunned–he didn’t expect that question. But he instinctively answered, “Celeste Rodriguez”

Taking a deep breath, Theodore let out a laugh. “So, before the collaboration even started, you managed to offend one of their core technical personnel. Impressive.”

Jorge was about to argue that Celeste wasn’t exactly a core gure–just someone with an ambiguous relationship

with Matthias.

But Theodore didn’t give him the chance. “I can help you with this,” he said.

Jorge Immediately responded, “Thanks, old man!”

“Shameless.”

“When’s your next vacation? Jorge didn’t see anything shameful about asking his father for help this time.

In his opinion, he could have secured the YodaVision proje based on his own ability. The only thing standing in his way was a personal grudge.

And since that grudge wasn’t something he cared about, why not just take the easiest way around it?

was planning to take some time off in a few days,” Theodore said. “But now I don’t think I will. Seeing you would probably shorten my lifespan.”

With that, he hung up.

As for Celeste, he didn’t even bother mentioning her. After all, when someone’s life was too smooth, it might not necessarily be a good thing

After ending the call, Theodore picked up his phone again and dialed Celeste.

Celeste’s gaze shifted from her computer screen. Seeing his name on the caller ID, her eyes flickered slightly before she answered, “Mr. Robinson.”

Theodore chuckled. “You’re smart enough to guess why I’m calling, aren’t you?”

Celeste hummed a response.

Even though she had already figured out his intentions, Theodore still asked, “Can you agree to work with Jorge? Think of it as me owing you a favor. What do you say?”

Business was business. In reality, as long as both parties were sincere enough, even enemies could work together.
