Jorge asked, “Are you familiar with that woman?”

Hearing him mention Celeste, Wynn’s fingers briefly tightened on the keyboard. She instinctively thought he might be interested in her.

Wynn said indifferently, “I’m not sure, but I heard she only has a bachelor’s degree.”

“Only a bachelor’s degree?”

“Mm.”
