The Scent of 308

Chapter 308

Celeste had no idea what Trevor and Jorge talked about. After lunch with Matthias, she returned to the office to continue working

On Wednesday, she received a call from Gideon inviting her ower for dinner that weekend. He added, “Jo will be there too.” Celeste paused for a moment and said, “Alright”

On Friday afternoon, while Celeste was in a meeting, her phone suddenly rang. Just as she was about to answer, the call ended.

Since she was still in a meeting and the number was unfamblar, she didn’t give it much thought.

The person calling had actually been Janet.

She had officially started working at Harper Corporation on Wednesday.

She had called Celeste to tell her that she had joined the company and would be settling down in Baumond.

But just after dialing, she remembered something Linda had said that Trevor’s friends, like Beck, didn’t like Celeste. No matter how hard she tried to win them over, they never warmed up to her. Yet they had easily accepted Wynn.

If she told Celeste about getting the job at Harper Corporation, Celeste would definitely know Wynn had a hand in it. And if Celeste knew that, she might feel hurt. Thinking of that, Janet hurriedly hung up.

After work, prompted by Lennox, she returned to the Locket residence. She hadn’t even stepped through the door when she saw several unfamiliar luxury cars parked outside the villa.

Before coming to Baumond, she had already heard from Lennox and the others that many elites and powerful families in the city now knew about Wynn’s relationship with Trevor.
