The Scent of 134
Chapter 134
Perhaps guessing the reason for Celeste’s hesitation, Beck said, “I can guarantee you that personal matters will
never interfere with business betweenand your uncle.”
Hearing this, Celeste asked, “Are you sure?”
“I'm sure.”
Celeste knew Ivan’s company was in a difficult situation. So, after a moment of hesitation, she said, “Alright.”
“Letknow when you're free, and I'll arrange a tto meet.”
“Alright,” Celeste replied.
At that moment, Beck looked at her dark hair, slightly tousled by the cold wind, and said, “The night wind is
chilly. You should head inside.”
Celeste paused. Those were the exact swords Trevor had said to her just moments ago.
She nodded without saying anything else and got into her car.
Beck remained where he was.

As her car passed him, Celeste rolled down the window, nodded to him as a farewell, then stepped on the gas
and drove away.
Only after watching her car disappear into the distance did Beck get into his own car and leave.
Betty, Ivan, and Adeline were still awake, though Jamie and Hector had already gone upstairs to rest.
When they saw her return, they all looked over at her in unison. It was obvious they had been waiting for her.
Betty said, “You're back?”
“Mm.” Seeing her grandma extend her hand, Celeste set down her bag and walked over to sit beside her.
Holding her hand, Betty asked, “Cel, have you decided to let go of Trevor?”
Her attitude toward him today was drastically different from before. It was impossible not to notice. “Yes,”
Celeste replied. “We're planning to get a divorce.”
Hearing this, Betty smiled. “Good, good. Divorce is a good thing."

But then she frowned and said, “Jo is very attached to him, and to be fair, he has treated her quite well these
past two years. He probably won't give you custody that easily. This...”
Celeste didn’t want custody of Jordyn. But she didn’t say it outright.
Celeste simply responded, “I know. I'll talk to him properly about that. It's getting late-everyone should rest.”
The others went to bed, but Celeste couldn't rest yet.
Zachary and Matthias had been discussing various topics on their way home, and by the tshe got back to
her room, she had already received a task list from Matthias.
He had even noted, “This is for the professor. It needs to be completed by six tomorrow morning.”
Celeste set down her bag, took a sip of water, and replied, Got it.”

Without removing her makeup or taking a shower, she immediately turned on her laptop and got to work.
Finally, at around 4:00 am, she finished the tasks and sent the completed files over.
Matthias was also swamped with work, but he was nearly done as well. He then sent her a message: “The
professor wants us at his place before nine.”
Celeste replied, “Alright.”
They didn’t chat any further.
After shutting down her computer, Celeste went to the bathroom to remove her makeup and shower.
By the tshe finished everything, it was already past 5:00 am.

She set an alarm for three hours later before finally turning off the lights and going to bed.
Later, she was jolted awake by the alarm. Her body felt weak and exhausted, but she forced herself up
immediately and went to freshen up.
When she cdownstairs, her fatigue was evident.
Betty looked at her with concern. “Why don’t you sleep in?”
| have to go see my professor.”
Betty knew that Zachary was strict with students. So, she simply said, “I'm worried about you driving in this
state. Let the driver take you.”
“Alright,” Celeste agreed.
When she arrived at Zachary’s villa, the three of them went straight into the study and got to work.
