Wynn had the sidea, but the thing was that they started the whole mess to begin with.

She had maintained a gentle demeanor around Trevor to this point. If he learned about this incident, she wasn’t

sure if he would think that she and her family had been picking on Celeste. That, in turn, would affect her image

in his heart.

Needless to say, Lilian understood Wynn's concerns. She knew better than anyone how important it was to

maintain one’s image. After all, that was the key to making a man love a woman forever.

Erin also understood it. Trevor loved Wynn deeply because she was very special to him. If they handled it

carefully, it might not have a lasting effect on Wynn. However, it was still not a good move for her.

She glanced at Linda and said nonchalantly, “Linda, you're a grown-up. You really have to mind what you do and

say in the future.”

If they failed to handle this incident with finesse, it might prove to be a fatal blow to their families.

“But, I...” Linda trailed off.

At first, she thought it was just an insignificant incident. Now, however, the whole thing had spun out of control

and becmuch bigger than it was.

In fact, she was already shaking in her boots. It had been a long tsince she had been lectured this sternly.

Although she felt sorry for herself, she had no choice but to own up to her mistake.

“Understood. | will be mindful of how I present myself.”

Erin fell silent and commented no further. The fact that Linda was lectured didn’t sit well with Patricia at all.

However, the fact remained that Linda was the one who kick-started the whole mess.

If this kerfuffle actually affected InnovaTech’s future in the autonomous vehicle industry, the loss would be too

great to bear. Compared to losing that amount of money, Linda's feelings were relatively minor. That was also

why Patricia didn’t defend Linda, despite her personal feelings.

In any case, they couldn’t have hidden this incident if they wanted to. After all, if YodaVision Co. insisted on

terminating the collaboration, Trevor would still find out about it. It was just a matter of time.

Wynn was aware of that. Needless to say, Lilian and Erin understood as well.

Later, the dishes were served on the table, but none of them touched their cutlery. They were in a relatively

good mood a while ago, but that was no longer the case now.

Wynn tightened her grip on her phone. After a brief moment of contemplation, she took a deep breath and left

the private room. Then, she gave Trevor a phone call.

He answered her call rather quickly. “Hello.”

“Trevor,” she said, “something unpleasant happened over here.”

Wynn proceeded to recount the whole incident. Then, she added, “Celeste was being a little aggressive earlier. |

couldn’t stand it when my mom was being belittled, and | let the moment get to me. That's how the whole thing

cto this.”

Trevor waited until she was done talking before he spoke. “You're wrong. If they take InnovaTech to court, they

won't stop at asking for termination of collaboration and compensation for damage of reputation. They'll also ask

for compensation for breach of contract.

“After all, the entire collaboration could no longer go on because of your ostensible mistake. Terminating the

contract would cause YodaVision Co. to suffer loss as well, and he would definitely make you pay the price.”

Wynn was dumbfounded. “Matthias didn’t say anything about this when we were on the phone.”

“He omitted it on purpose. He downplayed the situation because he wanted you to think that you could still turn

the whole thing around, and he did that because he wanted to catch you off guard.

“What he wanted was for you to call him back, admit your mistake, and apologize to him. In fact, he was biding

his tto have dirt on you.”

Then, Trevor added, “If my assumptions are correct, Matthilas probably has a recording of your phone

conversation with him.”

Wynn was shocked. Only now did she understand what had happened. “Are you tellingthat Celeste

deliberately wantedto give Matthias a call? And she did it because she wantedto hand them a piece of

evidence on a silver platter?”

Trevor responded, “That's right.”

Wynn pursed her lips. It had never occurred to her that Celeste had planned this far ahead. Now, she finally saw

how big of a mess she was actually in.

After a brief moment of deep contemplation, she snapped out of it and asked, “I need your...”

Trevor cut her off and said honestly, “I can’t promise that | can solve it. YodaVision Co. is protected by the

government. So, | can’t do anything to Matthias.”

What about the Rodriguez family, then?

Wynn thought about it, but she didn’t say it out loud. She knew that she couldn't say something like this unless

Trevor took the initiative to screw over the Rodriguezes. She couldn't be sure if he would consider this option if

she didn’t bring it up, though.

They chatted for a while longer before ending the call.

Once Wynn returned to the private room, Patricia immediately asked, “What did Trevor say?”

“He said he'll mediate the situation from his side, but he wasn’t certain if he could make Matthias give up on

terminating the contract.”

Compared to this, Lilian actually cared more about something else. “Did he make any comment about this

incident?”

After all, the autonomous vehicle project wasn’t as important as Trevor. The only thing that mattered was that he

still loved Wynn.

Lilian didn’t have to spell it out for Wynn, though.

At this point, a warm, fuzzy feeling rose in Wynn's chest. She said, “Trevor calmeddown and toldthat he

will help solve this for me. He didn’t reprimandat all.”

Lilian heard what Wynn said and instantly felt relieved. Erin and Patricia also let out a sigh of relief.

Linda’s mood also improved. “I knew it. Trev loves you deeply. He would never have stopped having feelings for

you or lecture you over something this trivial.”

Naturally, Wynn was happy that Trevor loved her this much. However, she had lost both dignity and money

today.

She responded nonchalantly, “Let’s put the thing between Trevor andaside. Linda, | don’t want something

like this to happen again in the future. Got it?”

Wynn had never been this solemn before. Linda felt the hair on the back of her neck stand, and she shrank back.

“U -Understood. | promise | will think before | speak.”
