“Lottie?”
“Sorry, Cel. | have to leave town tomorrow for something, so | won't be able to go with you to pick out a birthday
gift for your grandma.”
“It’s fine. I've already bought something.”
She had never been to this antique shop before. And she originally cjust to try her luck, thinking that if she
didn’t find anything suitable, she could continue shopping with Lottie the next day.
She didn’t expect to find the perfect gift.
Lottie was pleasantly surprised. “Really? That's great!”
Celeste smiled. “Mm.”
Then, Lottie suddenly said, “Oh, right, Cel. A few days ago, you toldyou saw the Locket family. I did some
digging for you over the past couple of days.
“It turns out they really are planning to settle in Baumond. Apparently, they've been house-hunting these past

Hearing the mention of the Locket family, Celeste’s smile faded slightly. “Alright, I got it.”
“As for Wynn's mother’s side of the family, | heard they've already picked out a house. They'll be moving in soon.
Supposedly, they've even started sending out invitations for a housewarming banquet.”
“Alright, I got it.”
After hanging up, Celeste drove back to the city.
Next week was her grandma's birthday. On Sunday, Celeste took Jordyn back to the Rodriguez residence to
discuss the banquet preparations with Ivan and his wife.
Trevor didn’t return that Sunday, so Celeste stayed at the villa.
He only cback on Tuesday.
Since she wouldn’t be coming back to this villa in the next few days, she took the two brocade boxes with her
before leaving.
She had initially thought the gifts left on her vanity table were for her.
But after seeing what was inside, she realized that Trevor wanted her to hand them over to her grandma on her
birthday.
After dropping Jordyn off at school, Celeste headed to the office.
YodaVision was launching three to four new projects at once, making the new week even busier for both Celeste
and Matthias.
Trevor had likely returned on schedule since Jordyn hadn't called her in the past two to three days.
On Wednesday night, Celeste and Matthias were having dinner with a client.
Just as they were about to enter the private dining room, she saw Trevor with Wynn, Harvey, Erin, and the others.

Last time, Erin and the others didn’t notice her. But this time, all of them saw her.
They hesitated as if they wanted to say something, but perhaps because Trevor was there, they ultimately
remained silent.
As for Wynn and Trevor, due to the way they were standing, they didn’t see her.
Without any expression, Celeste withdrew her gaze and walked away.
Erin and the others saw her leave but didn’t follow.
Over an hour later, after finishing dinner, Celeste and Matthias were leaving the restaurant when they ran inta
Wynn and her group again.
They were also in the parking lot, seemingly about to leave
However, Trevor was no longer with them-he had likely already left.
Before Celeste and Matthias could react, their client, Oscar Fletcher, spotted Wynn and her family and
enthusiastically walked over.
“Ms. Locket, Mr. Locket!”
