---- Celeste's car was still at the restaurant from the night before. After breakfast, she got into Trevor's car, and the two of them sent Jordyn to school together. After watching Jordyn enter the school. Trevor turned to Celeste. "Should I drop you off at your company?" Celeste declined calmly. "No need. I'll take a taxi." Trevor nodded without insisting. "Stay safe." With that, he gave her a brief nod, then turned and got into his car, heading back to Fleming Group directly. He spent the morning at the company handling work. At noon, he had a business lunch.

As he went downstairs with Jacob and the others, they spotted Wynn waiting by the parking area at the entrance. Both Trevor and Jacob paused.
