The Scent of 259
Chapter 259
However, Harvey and his group had already turned and gone upstairs, so they didn’t see Matthias getting out of
the car.
Matthias withdrew his gaze and quickly went over to greet Kevin.
After exchanging pleasantries, their group was about to head upstairs when Trevor also arrived.
As soon as he stepped out of the car, Kevin spotted him and greeted him with delight. “Mr. Fleming!”
Trevor's expression remained unchanged when he saw Celeste and Matthias.
He smiled faintly and shook hands with the approaching Kevin. “Mr. Thatcher, when did you arrive?”
“Just now,” Kevin said with a laugh. “Last time, you mentioned having a meal together when you had time. When
would you be available? How about tonight?”
Trevor replied, “My schedule is full today. Let's do it in a couple of days.”
“Sure, sure, a couple of days works too.”
Watching Trevor and Kevin chatting, Matthias muttered in low voice, “We only had peace for half a month, and
Dow we've run into them again.”
Celeste said nothing. But indeed, it had been half a month since she last saw Trevor.
Even when she visited Martha at the hospital last weekend, he wasn’t there.
Over the past ten days or so, Jordyn had called her several times-especially in the last two to three days.
It was probably because winter break had started, and with Trevor and Wynn too busy to spend twith her,
she had been bored and called Celeste multiple times.

But Celeste never answered any of her calls.
To be fair, Trevor had kept his promise. Whatever he had told Jordyn, it worked-because even though Celeste
hadn’t answered, Jordyn didn’t show up at the Rodriguez residence either.
That had saved her a lot of trouble.
As she was thinking about this, Trevor and Kevin finished their conversation. So, all of them entered the elevator
together.
Seeing that Matthias and Celeste weren't speaking to Trevor, Kevin belatedly realized there seemed to be some
tension between them.
His smile turned a little awkward.
Celeste noticed that Trevor seemed to be looking at her. She pursed her lips, and just as she raised her head, her
gaze met his deep black eyes.
Then Trevor suddenly asked her, “When are you free?”
Celeste withdrew her gaze and didn’t look at him, responding coldly, “I'm never free.”
Even without thinking, she knew this question had something to do with Jordyn.
It had only been half a month since she last saw her-there were still over ten days before it reached a full month.

She had been extremely busy lately and had no tto take care of Jordyn.
Trevor chuckled slightly, as if he didn’t mind her attitude, and simply sald, “The Ember Festival is coming soon.
Celeste paused, suddenly realizing what he meant. If she didn’t take stfor Jordyn now, then during the
Ember Festival.
She had been so busy lately that she had completely forgotten about this.
However, she said indifferently, “I don’t mind skipping a month.”
After all, she had spent quite a bit of twith Jordyn last month. What did it matter if she didn’t this month?
Trevor raised an eyebrow at her words but said nothing.
Kevin, listening to their conversation, was momentarily confused. He didn’t understand what they were talking
about.
Just then, the elevator stopped. Trevor gave Kevin a brief nod before stepping out and leaving-
Once the elevator doors closed, Kevin turned to Celeste. “Ms. Rodriguez, were you and Mr. Fleming a couple?”
Celeste replied, “No.”
Kevin didn’t believe her. He assumed that she and Trevor had quarreled and were just saying that out of spite.
Besides, he thought the two of them actually looked quite compatible.
But before he could say more, his phone rang. So, the topic was dropped.
After their meal, Celeste and Matthias headed downstairs with their group, only to run into Trevor and the Locket
family again in the parking lot.
They overheard Calvin saying to Trevor, “You'd better treat my sister well! If you dare bully her, | won't let you
off! Got it?”
It was Calvin's first tmeeting Trevor in person.
In the private dining room earlier, when he first laid eyes on him, Calvin didn’t dare to speak so boldly.
After all, Trevor carried an imposing aura-it was clear at a glance that he wasn’t an ordinary man.
However, Trevor had been very kind to him.
Recalling how his family had praised Trevor endlessly, the distance between them had faded over the course of
the meal, and Calvin was no longer intimidated.

now, he dared to throw down stough words. But in reality, Calvin was actually very satisfied with his future
brother-in-law.
From his perspective, Trevor was indeed worthy of his sister in every aspect. Not to mention, Trevor treated both
Wynn and their family exceptionally well.
Naturally, Calvin had no complaints.
So, while his words sounded fierce, everyone present understood his true meaning.
Trevor smiled and said, “Alright.”
Wynn, hearing this, also smiled sweetly.
It was a very heartwarming scene.

Matthias, watching it all, let out a cold laugh.
Celeste remained expressionless.
Kevin, however, finally understood something. He turned to Celeste. “So, you really weren't in a relationship with
Mr. Fleming?”
So, that beautiful woman over there was actually Trevor's girlfriend?
Celeste answered indifferently, “Yes.”
At that moment, Trevor and Wynn also noticed Celeste and Matthias, turning their gazes toward them.
But Matthias had no interest in them. He simply said to Ken, “Mr. Thatcher, please get in the car.” Earlier, when
they had run into Trevor, Kevin had already sensed that Matthias and Trevor weren't on good terms. Given the
situation, Kevin didn’t say much. He merely nodded politely toward Trevor before getting into the car. Celeste
and Matthias followed right after. Soon, their car left the parking lot.
