Before Jorge could finish his sentence, Theodore cut him off. “You’re trying to say that he’s siding with Celeste again and bullying Ms. Locket, aren’t you?”

Jorge was surprised that Theodore hit the nail on the head. Old man, how’d you know? Don’t tell me you already know what happened?”

Theodore replied, “I don’t. I guessed.”

Back when Celeste and Matthias agreed to work with his foolish son for his sake, it was clear they wouldn’t deliberately make things difficult for him in the workplace

His son also wasn’t the kind to stir up trouble at work for no reason. So, even if they couldn’t become friends, their professional relationship should have stayed smooth.

If Jorge didn’t clash with Matthias or Celeste personally, then the conflict likely involved someone he cared about -probably Wynn.

Earlier that year, when he’d met with Kael, Celeste, and the others for dinner, they’d happened to run into Wynn at the restaurant entrance.

At the time, seeing how attentive his son was to her–and considering her looks, demeanor, and manners–he had been quite pleased.

But after dinner, Harold informed him that Wynn was Trevor’s girlfriend.

Theodore didn’t know the full story between Celeste and Trevor, but that day, when Celeste and Matthias saw Wynn and her father, their expressions were… telling.
