Chapter 406

The next day, Isabelle’s test results cback.

Overall, the level of organ failure in her body was slightly less severe than what had been shown in the previous

tests conducted at the nursing home.

Normally, with this degree of organ failure, as long as there was treatment and proper care, the condition could

be stabilized.

However, Isabelle’s baseline health was extremely poor, and the rate of organ deterioration was relatively fast-

so her overall prognosis was still not optimistic.

After hearing the doctor's analysis, Celeste and Betty felt a mix of relief and worry.

Relieved because there was still a chance for Isabelle; worried because, given her current condition, she might

not be able to cooperate fully with the treatment.

That afternoon, Zachary called and invited Celeste and Matthias out for dinner.

Matthias was away on a business trip that afternoon, so in the evening, Celeste drove alone to pick up Zachary,

When they arrived at the restaurant and had just gotten out of the car, Wynn, who was also just about to step

out, caught sight of

them.

Seeing Celeste with Zachary, and not spotting Matthias anywhere, Wynn didn’t think too much of it. She got out

of the car and walked over to Zachary. “Mr. Newman.”

Zachary glanced at her with a cold expression, gave a slight nod, and looked away. Then he turned to Celeste

and said, “Let's go.

With that, he started walking forward while continuing the conversation they'd been having earlier.

A few days ago, when Celeste had been discussing recent developments in the Al field with Bryson and Rodney

in Trevor's office, she had received praise from them.

Even if they thought her views were somewhat secondhand, Wynn couldn’t help but start following the latest

trends in the field herself over the past few days.

So now, she could tell that Zachary and Celeste were discussing recent breakthroughs in Al—such as brain-

computer interfaces and on-device Al inference.

Seeing Zachary give her a cool brush-off and then ignore her completely, Wynn didn’t say anything more.

She just followed them into the restaurant while keeping a short distance from them.

At the reception desk, the hostess asked, “Hello, how many people are in your party? Did you make a reservation

for a private room?”

Celeste answered, “Two people. | made the reservation under the nRodriguez.”

The hostess checked the system, then smiled and said, “Yes, we did receive your call. Right this way, please.”

Celeste nodded and followed the staff with Zachary.

Wynn, standing nearby, froze for a moment when she heard that.

Two people? That meant Matthias wasn’t coming?

Celeste had enough influence with Zachary now that even without Matthias, she could meet with him one-on-

one?

Zachary might be a big shot in the field, but he was known for not being fond of teaching others. When it came

to professional knowledge, he wasn’t the kind to share freely, nor could just anyone discuss Al with him.

Most of the time, even if someone sought him out personally, he might not give them the tof day.

He held a prestigious position but had a notoriously cold and proud demeanor.

Normally, someone like him should've been criticized for it. But his strength was simply too formidable, and the

contributions he had made to the country were undeniable.

So, even though his actions didn’t always match the responsibilities of his title, no one dared to say anything

against him.

Yet just now, he had clearly been actively discussing technical topics with Celeste.

So, did that mean Zachary genuinely thought highly of Celeste? Otherwise, why would he give her such face and

meet her for a private dinner?

After all, he was famous for being nearly impossible to book. Even for people he knew well, he rarely granted

them that courtesy. Was Celeste truly someone Zachary had cto admire?

Thinking of how his attitude toward Celeste had been significantly warmer than toward herself, Wynn's red lips

pressed into a tight fine as she watched them walk away.
