The Scent of 39
Chapter 39
After Quentin left YodaVision, he immediately called Wynn.
“Celeste joined YodaVision?”
Quentin was puzzled. “Hmm. Didn't you know this?”
He thought Celeste replaced her at YodaVision.
“No.” She thought Matthias didn’t hire her as he wanted to vent his anger on Celeste’s behalf. She pondered
whether Celeste had left Fleming Group since joining YodaMision.
Quentin was shocked. “So, what was the personal reason you mentioned earlier?”
Wynn refused to elaborate. “Just spersonal grudges.”
“But...”
“What's wrong?”
He'd misunderstood. His resignation wasn’t related to Wynn. Quentin then asked, “How good is Celeste? | heard
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe hasn't passed her doctoral exam yet. She...”
“Her situation isn’t that she hasn't yet passed her doctoral exam. Rather, she only holds an undergraduate
degree and has never pursued a master’s degree.”
“What? Really?”
“Mmm,” Wynn replied indifferently.
She was taken aback by Celeste’s decision to leave Fleming Group. Yet, even more surprising was that rather
than pursuing further studies, Celeste used her connections to secure a position at another company. It was
apparent that she lacked vision and a broader perspective on her future.
Quentin asked, “Wynn, what are your plans next?”
“I have an important racing competition coming up, so | need to focus on practicing for now. I'll think about work
later.”
“Oh, | see...” Quentin knew that Wynn was remarkable in all aspects. He sometimes felt confused about how she
managed so many activities without losing her expertise.
However, he believed that her competence set her apart from others. Since she took on these challenges, she
must have understood what she was doing.
Meanwhile, in the Fleming Group office, Trevor flipped through the documents. He barely glanced up as he
instructed Jacob, “Geta cup of coffee.”
“Alright, Mr. Fleming.”
This was Naomi's first tmaking coffee for Trevor on her own, and she felt a mix of excitement and
nervousness. Following Celeste’s instructions, she brewed the coffee meticulously, and Jacob delivered it to
Trevor.
Trevor set aside the documents and picked up his coffee, giving it a stir. As he brought the cup to his lips, he
hesitated. The aroma seemed off.
Trying to take a sip, he instantly recoiled at the taste and placed the cup down, commanding, “Ask her to make
another one.”

Jacob was momentarily stunned. “Okay.”
Naomi was slightly anxious after being informed. “Another cup? Did | add too much sugar, or is the flavor off? |
carefully followed Celeste’s instructions and measured the sugar accurately. There shouldn't be any issues.”
“I'm not sure either.”
Naomi had no choice but to brew another cup of coffee. Maybe she was nervous this time. Trevor didn’t even
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtaste it. He just smelled it and knew it wasn’t right.
He then turned to Jacob and asked, “What's going on?”
“This is the first tMs. Sanders has made coffee for you. Probably she was a bit nervous and didn’t manage
the temperature well.”
Trevor frowned. “Ms. Sanders? What about her? Where's Celeste?”
Jacob was stunned. “Celeste resigned. Didn't you know?”
Trevor remained silent as he genuinely had no idea. He was only aware that Celeste’s work attitude had troubled
Jacob, to the point where Jacob was considering firing her. But...
“When did she leave?”
“Last Thursday.”
“Okay.”
Celeste had left, but it was likely only for a few days. He believed she would return on her own soon.
