The Scent of 306

Chapter 306

Wynn put down her phone and said to Lennox, “He might be busy. I’ll try calling again later.”

More than half an hour later, she called Beck again. This time, Beck answered. Wynn said, “Hope I’m not bothering you?”

Beck replied, “Not at all.”

In fact, Beck had seen her call the first time. He had just chosen not to pick up.

He asked, “What’s going on?”

Wynn explained the reason for her call. After hearing it, Beck asked, “Why not arrange for her to work at Trevor’s company?”

Wynn smiled at the question. “Trevor’s company isn’t hiring right now.”

Beck was silent for a second. Then he asked, “What’s her name?”

“Janet Linvale.”

“How do you spell that?”

“J–A–N–E–TL–I–N–V–A–L–E”

“Alright. Got it. Have her submit a resume through the regular process over the next few days.”

Wynn smiled. “Thanks, Beck.”

Before Beck could respond, Wynn seemed to want to chat a bit more and casually asked, “What are you up to now? Been busy lately?”

Beck didn’t get a chance to answer.

A soft, pleasant female voice came from his end. “Beck, who are you talking to?”

“Nothing.” Beck’s tone turned cold. Then he said to Wynn, I have something to take care of. I’m hanging up now.

Before she could say anything else, he ended the call.

The moment that woman’s voice appeared, Beck’s tone instantly went cold. It was obvious he wasn’t happy she had interrupted their conversation. Maybe he had ended the call so abruptly because he was worried Wynn might hear too much and misunderstand his relationship with that woman?

Wynn raised her eyebrows at the thought. She set down her phone and said to Lennox, “Beck agreed.”

Lennox thanked her. “Thank you, Wynn.”

Linda, looking smug, said to Janet, “See? I told you. As long as Wynn speaks up, Beck would definitely Janet paused, then couldn’t help glancing at Wynn a few more times.

That evening, after having dinner and returning from the Rodriguez residence to her own place, Celeste had just turned on her computer to get back to work when she received a call from Trevor. She didn’t answer. She turned off her phone instead.

It wasn’t until the next morning when she woke up that she turned it back on again. Then she saw a few messages from Trevor.

[I want to talk to you.]

[It’s about Grandma’s birthday celebration.]

[I hope you’ll attend.]

Maybe because she didn’t reply, Trevor didn’t send any more messages after that.

Celeste still didn’t respond. After washing up, she was making breakfast when Trevor called again.

She frowned. Pretending not to see it, she still didn’t answer. Trevor called two or three more times, and when it was clear she wouldn’t pick up, he stopped trying

Celeste went to work at the company as usual.

That day, Jorge happened to visit YodaVision Co. for business. Matthias was the one who received him.

Around noon, Jorge, as persistent as ever, tried to invite Matthias to lunch. As usual, Matthias declined. Jorge had no choice but to leave with his own colleagues.

When he got to the parking lot downstairs, he saw Trevor leaning against a car door, as if waiting for someone.

He paused, then stepped forward and greeted, “Mr. Fleming.”

Trevor looked over with a smile. “Mr. Robinson, here on business at YodaVision?”

“Yes.”

Thinking of how proactive Trevor was being toward Celeste Jorge kept a calm expression and cautiously asked, You came here to…?”

“I’m here to see Celeste.” Trevor smiled and looked up at the office building. “She should be upstairs?”

Jorge pressed his lips together but hadn’t responded yet when Trevor sighed and said, “She won’t answer my calls or reply to my messages. I had no choice but to come here and wait for her.”

Just as Jorge was about to say something, Celeste and Matthias walked out of the building together. Seeing Trevor and Jorge both waiting in the parking lot, they stopped in their tracks.

Matthias wanted nothing more than to turn right back into the building. Of course, that was just a passing thought. They still headed toward the parking lot, walking, straight past Trevor and Jorge without acknowledging them, heading toward their car.

Trevor walked over and said to Celeste, “Let’s talk.”

Matthias didn’t know about Trevor hugging Celeste after the last conference. All he knew was that Trevor had always gone out of his way to hide their marriage and didn’t want others to know about their relations!

Now, seeing Trevor not only approach Celeste openly but also seem completely unbothered by who was watching, Matthias frowned and looked at Celeste, silently asking, “What the hell is he doing?”

The moment Celeste saw Trevor, she already knew he was here for her. To be honest, she hadn’t expected him to be this unreserved, showing up at YodaVision Co. in broad daylight just to confront her.

She said coldly, “I’m not going”

Trevor looked at her. “No need to rush your decision. If you have any conditions, we can talk.”

Celeste said, “I don’t think there’s a need. If I need to talk do with you.”
