Chapter 439
Chapter 439 After her secretary left , Wynn's mood grew heavier and heavier . Technology was the foundation of a company's growth . With Velotra's brilliant performance ahead of them , InnovaTech would need another major technological breakthrough to gain a foothold in the autonomous vehicle market . But achieving a breakthrough in technology was incredibly difficult . So far , she had already invested six to seven hundred million dollars into InnovaTech .
But now that Velotra had disrupted the market , InnovaTech's future was uncertain .. If she continued to invest and InnovaTech failed to make a breakthrough with real impact , it would be the same as throwing away all the money . Yet , she was unwilling to give up now . So … Should she move forward or retreat ? Thinking of this , she thought of Trevor . But even he couldn't guarantee whether the company could achieve à breakthrough in the future , could he ?noveldrama
So , even if she asked him , he likely wouldn't be able to give her a definite answer either . Wynn sat there deep in thought for a long time . It wasn't until her secretary knocked again that she realized it was already noon . Her secretary asked , " Ms. Locket , would you like me to arrange lunch for you ? " Wynn glanced at her phone but said nothing . She was sure Trevor understood the extent of the impact Velotra would have on InnovaTech even more clearly than she did .
And based on what she knew of him , he probably had already predicted how the attitudes of Leroy and the other potential partner , Steven Watts , had changed toward InnovaTech . Now was exactly the time when she needed him most . But since dinner with Leroy the day before , he hadn't contacted her at all . Thinking back to how he had looked at Celeste during the launch event - so focused , as if he had completely forgotten her existence - her heart clenched painfully .
So maybe he , like her , had yet to recover from the shock brought by Celeste's dazzling performance at the launch . Celeste had been busy for most of the day . At around five in the evening , her phone rang . It was a call from Jordyn . She glanced at the screen and answered , " Jo , what's the matter ? " ' Mom , our school is going on summer break soon . There's a parent - teacher meeting tomorrow . Can you attend it ? " Celeste paused .
She hadn't been involved in these matters in a long time . " It's summer break already ? " " Yeah ! " Regaining her focus , Celeste asked calmly , " Is your dad not available ? " With the fallout from Velotra's launch , Wynn was likely swamped so maybe Trevor didn't have time to attend the meeting ? " Dad is free , " Jordyn pouted . " But I want you to come with me . Mom , can you come tomorrow morning ? Please ? " Celeste replied , " Alright . " Jordyn cheered happily , " Yay !
" " I still have things to do , so let's talk later . See you tomorrow . " " Okay ! See you tomorrow , Mom ! " The next day , Celeste drove to Jordyn's school in the morning . When Jordyn saw her , she ran into her arms and shouted , " Mom ! " Celeste patted her head and held her hand as they walked into the school together . Tilda and Donna were both surprised to see Celeste personally attending the meeting .
After all , ever since the last parent - child event , it was usually Trevor who came with Jordyn . Donna greeted her , " Hello , Ms. Rodriguez . Long time no see . " " Long time no see , " Celeste replied . After the greeting , Donna began chatting with Celeste about Jordyn's performance at school recently . From the teacher's words , Celeste learned that Jordyn had been quite happy both at home and at school , which meant Trevor had indeed been attentive to her .
During the parent - teacher meeting , Jordyn held Celeste's hand and said sweetly , " Mom , it's been so long since we had a meal together outside . Can we go out for lunch after this ? " Celeste agreed , " Sure . " However , after the meeting ended , when Celeste was walking out of the school holding Jordyn's hand , she saw Trevor stepping out of his car . Jordyn didn't look surprised at all . Instead , she happily said , " Dad , you're here !
" 3 Only after glancing at Celeste did Trevor respond with a hum . トール
