Caleb extended his hand with a polite smile. “Caleb Jennings.”

Kieran shook it firmly.

As their eyes locked, it was as if an unspoken message passed between them: “We'll each rely on our own skills

to win her over.”

After the handshake, Caleb turned back to Celeste...

“My coming here made you uncomfortable, didn’t it?”

It did.

But she responded tactfully, “A little.”

“| figured as much. knew you'd feel uncomfortable, but I still came.” His tone was calm, even apologetic.

“Because | felt that if | didn’t try, I'd never know if you might change your mind. But now I've tried, and | know

the answer. I'll be more mindful from now on.”

So, he was planning to keep pursuing her?

Before Celeste could respond, Caleb turned to Matthias. “Let's save the YodaVision tour for next time. | won't

disturb you further.”

Matthias had a good impression of Caleb. If Celeste were to start a new relationship after her divorce, he

genuinely thought Caleb could be a decent choice.

But since Celeste herself didn’t seem interested at the moment, he wasn’t about to meddle.

So, he replied courteously, “If you have time, you're always welcto visit us again, Caleb.”

Caleb nodded. Before turning to leave, he glanced one last tat Celeste.

She stood in silence, seemingly deep in thought.

He looked like he wanted to say something more, but in the end, he simply said, “See you next time.”

“Take care.”

Then, Caleb left.

Earlier, Kieran had thought Caleb and Celeste were already together. But now, he realized it had only ever been

a one-sided

pursuit.

Celeste had rejected him-openly and decisively.

That realization lifted Kieran’s mood significantly.

Not long after Caleb left, word had already spread around the company-a super handsguy had clooking

for Celeste.

“Was that hunk her husband?” someone asked curiously.

At that moment, Kieran was sitting in front of his computer.

The hand on his mouse suddenly froze. Her husband? Had he heard that right?

Before he could speak up, another colleague chimed in, “At first, Gianna from reception thought so too. But

judging by their conversation, it seemed like the guy was just chasing after her. Doesn't look like he’s her

husband at all!”

“Damn, spretty boy chased her all the way to the office? Do you think her husband knows about this? If—"

Kieran couldn’t take it anymore and cut in, “Hold on. You said Celeste is already married?”

“Yeah.” A colleague blinked at him. “You didn’t know?”

“I didn’t.”

At first, he’d assumed Celeste and Matthias were dating. But after spending tin the company, he noticed

that despite their close working relationship, they didn’t act like a couple.

They never cor left together, and there was a distinct lack of romantic behavior.

He'd even confirmed it directly with Celeste-she told him’they weren't dating.

The colleague thought for a moment and added, “Ah, right. You only joined this year. Most of the older folks in

the department know about it, but since you clater and we've stopped bringing up her personal life as

much, it’s understandable you didn’t know.".

Kieran didn’t reply.

The fact that Celeste was married had cas a complete shock.

After a moment, he asked, “What's her husband like? Have any of you met him? Do they have a good

relationship?” “We've only ever seen his silhouette during a video call-never his face. No idea who he is.”

Then, another colleague added, “As for how their relationship is... It’s hard to say, honestly. Celeste’s been with

YodaVision for a while now, but aside from that one unexpected video appearance last year, her husband's never

shown up again. She’s also never mentioned him.”
