Fated to Fall

Chapter 516

The morning before YodaVision's anniversary celebration,

Trevor had someone deliver a gown and jewelry to Wynn. 2

The Lockets and the Shaws all knew he intended to take Wynn

with him to the event.

When they saw that the total price of the gown and jewelry was

still in the tens of millions, Linda sighed in both admiration and

“Trev always sends such expensive dresses and jewelry. He

really loves spending money on you, Wynn." 1

At this, Wynn only gave a faint smile and said nothing.

No one knew a child better than their mother.

Lilian felt that lately, Wynn seemed distracted, her mind

elsewhere.

Seeing her silence, she asked, "Wynn, your mood hasn't been so

good over the last two days. Did something happen?"

Back when she first learned about Celeste's connection to

YodaVision and to Zachary, it had felt like all the strength had

drained from her.

She was no longer as confident as before. The only thing that

had allowed her to regain her confidence was Trevor's love for

When she discovered that Trevor had begun to appreciate

Celeste because of her abilities in the Al field, she had panicked.

But later, seeing that his admiration was purely for Celeste's

talent, while his affection and devotion belonged solely to her—

that she alone had his heart all these years—she had felt

reassured.

But what happened in Jorburgh, and what had happened

recently, had dealt her another harsh blow.

Trevor's attitude toward Celeste now seemed no longer just

admiration. 1

She knew that she was still important to him, but given his

growing appreciation for Celeste—if he ever learned that

YodaVision was co-founded by Matthias and Celeste, and that

she was also one of Zachary's students—his attitude toward

Celeste would surely— 2

Although she didn't know why it hadn't yet been made public

that Celeste was both a founder of YodaVision and Zachary's

student, tomorrow was YodaVision's big day.

If Matthias were to announce it in front of everyone—

Wynn abruptly cut off her train of thought.

Outwardly calm, she said only, "It's nothing.”

Lilian had wondered if something was wrong between her and

Trevor, but since his attitude toward the Lockets and the Shaws

—and toward Wynn herself—was as generous as ever, she

dismissed the thought. 2

Before she could say more, Linda pouted. "I heard YodaVision

booked the entire hotel for their anniversary celebration." 2

That was the most prestigious hotel in the capital. Just one

night there would cost close to nine figures.

She paused, then added, "But with the money YodaVision's

making now, that kind of expense is nothing to them." 1

At that, both Ruby and Patricia, as well as Wynn and Lilian,

thought of YodaVision's recent financial report. +

It was said that in just the first half of this year, YodaVision had

netted several tens of billions. The figure was staggering.

It meant that by the end of the year, their profits might very well

cross the hundred-billion mark.

At that pace, within a few years, Matthias could amass assets

worth several hundred billion. And this was without even

considering YodaVision's continuous expansion. 1

Thinking of Matthias's attitude toward Celeste, and the

possibility that Celeste might one day marry him, the members

of the Lockets and the Shaws nearly ground their molars to dust.

They couldn't understand how Celeste had such outrageous luck.

She had first married Trevor, and now, even heading into a

second marriage, she could still find someone with such

exceptional conditions.

Wynn saw the looks on their faces and instantly knew what they

were thinking. She just lowered her eyes, saying nothing.

The fact that Celeste was also a co-founder of YodaVision and a

student of Zachary was something neither her family nor Trevor

"It's been ages since we've had a chance to attend such a high-

profile banquet—it must be spectacular!” 1

Then, realizing she couldn't go, she added bitterly, "And it's all

"Exactly!" Ruby said, turning to Wynn. "If you ask me, Trevor

should be sending you even more expensive gowns and jewelry,

“That way, you can put her in her place. Let's see how smug

she'd be then!" 4

“That's right,” Linda added eagerly.

Though what Trevor had sent was already extravagant, it wasn't

as though he hadn't given Wynn even more lavish things in the

Wynn said nothing more. She rose quietly. "I'm going out.” 3

Seeing she wasn't in a good mood, both Linda and Ruby

immediately fell silent.

Lilian shot them both a cold glance

They realized they'd gone too far at once.

Trevor had already been very generous to them. If they kept

demanding more while dismissing what he'd already given, they

risked souring the relationship between him and Wynn. 4

As much as pride and reputation mattered, one had to weigh

priorities.

Seeing that both Wynn and Lilian seemed genuinely upset, Ruby

hurried to explain, "We were just saying it offhand—we didn't

really mean it..." 1

Lilian said nothing more and simply turned to head upstairs. 7
