"Ms. Locket." 2
When she saw Jorge coming over, Wynn gave a faint smile. "Mr.
Robinson."
Jorge glanced around. "Why are you standing here alone?
Where's Mr. Fleming?" +
Wynn pointed in a direction. "Trevor is over there talking to
Jorge followed her gesture with his eyes, then quickly brought
his gaze back to her face.
He paused for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Ms.
Locket, you don't look to be in a good mood, Did something
Wynn's smile faltered
Catching her reaction, Jorge pressed on: "Is it because of
Celeste Rodriguez?" 1
Before Wynn could respond, his eyes flicked coldly toward
Celeste's side. "I never thought someone like her would manage
to thrive like this and even gain the favor of Zachary Newman
and his wife. This world really is unfair." 4

Wynn truly wasn't in the best of moods tonight. And it was
indeed related to Celeste. But not in the way Jorge thought.
In reality, what weighed on her was the fear that Celeste's
identity—as Zachary's student, and as one of YodaVision's
founders—would be exposed tonight. 4
Because of this, her nerves had been taut for days, and at this
moment, they were stretched nearly to the breaking point.
Hearing Jorge's comment, she knew he had misunderstood. But
she didn't plan on correcting him. If anything, his presence
eased her tension a little.
Just then, Trevor returned.
Seeing Jorge, he smiled lightly. "Mr. Robinson, you're here too." 2
Jorge gave a slight nod. "I just cover to exchange a few
words with Ms. Locket. Since you two have matters to attend to,
I won't intrude further.”
Trevor said, "Calling it an intrusion is too polite, Mr. Robinson."
But Jorge still excused himself and left
Perhaps thinking she had been waiting to speak with Zachary,
Trevor said, "You've been waiting long, haven't you? Let's go
greet Mr. Newman and his wife now." 3
In the past, whenever Zachary rarely appeared, she would have
seized the chance to speak with him. Even if Matthias disliked
her, she would ignore that and find a way to strike up a
conversation.
But now...
She knew Celeste was Zachary's student. Which meant that
from the very first tshe had met him, Zachary had already
known who she was. 2
Back then, he had said her ability wasn't up to his standard. That
time, he had probably been telling the truth. But when he faced
her then, had there really been no prejudice in his heart? 2
Besides, was Celeste really so exceptional that Zachary
accepted her as his student? 5
"What's wrong?" Seeing her silent, Trevor asked.
"Nothing." 4
She didn't want to go over, but not wanting Trevor to sense
anything amiss, she still went with him toward Zachary.
“Mr. Newman, Dr. Yarborough.”
They had just stepped up and exchanged greetings when

mockery. "What a coincidence, Mr. Fleming, Ms. Locket, you're
here too."
Trevor greeted him with a calm smile. "Mr. Yoder.” Then his
gaze shifted to Celeste, and he gave her a brief nod. 1
Nadine looked at Trevor and Wynn with a smile. "So, it's Mr.
Fleming. It's been so many years since we last met.”
Trevor nodded. "Yes, it's been along
