Chapter 320
That morning, Celeste hadn’t been working for long when the received an official acceptance notice from an A
Journal.
A little while later, Matillas cby to discuss work with Her. He wasn’t surprised when he learned that her
paper had been accepted.
After all, with Zachary’s endorsement as an authority in the field, if even he believed the paper was solid, there
was no doubt it would pass the review stage.
After finishing their discussion, Celeste checked the tand asked, “Want to grab lunch together?”
Matthias rubbed his temples, looking a little weary. “I’ve got plans.”
Celeste looked up. “What's up?”
Matthias smirked. “A blind date. Arranged by my grandpa.”
Hearing this, Celeste chuckled. “You're already 28 and only now going on your first blind date. That's pretty
good.”
Matthias was speechless.
Honestly, his family had never been too pushy about his marriage.

But this time, the young woman was the granddaughter of his grandfather's close friend. Since it was hard to
refuse, he had no choice but to go.
Celeste said, “Alright then, go ahead. Ill just eat at the cafeteria.”
“Okay.”
Matthias arrived at the restaurant half an hour later.
It was a cozy, romantic place-clearly designed for couples.
Not long after he sat down, his blind date arrived as well.
Coincidentally, Miles also cto the restaurant at that moment, accompanied by his female companion.
As soon as he walked in, he spotted Matthias sitting not far away.
However, since Matthias was facing away from him, he didn’t notice Miles,
Miles faised an eyebrow and deliberately chose a seat behind Matthias.
Matthias wasn’t speaking particularly loudly, but since Miles was sitting so close, he quickly realized that
Matthias was on a blind date.
Miles’ female companion was about to say something, but he put a finger to his lips, signaling her to stay quiet.
Excited, he pulled out his phone and secretly snapped a picture of Matthias and his date. Then, he sent it to a
group chat with Trevor, Beck, and Wynn.
“Guess what's happening? Hint: this is a couple’s restaurant.”
Beck had just finished work and was about to grab a meal when he saw the new message notification. He looked
at the picture after opening it.

With Miles’ hint, it was obvious-Matthias was on a blind date. But instead of replying, Beck left the message:
unread, as if he hadn't seen it..
Wynn and Trevor also remained silent.
Miles, eager to share his gossip, was getting impatient when no one responded. He quickly typed, “Where is
everyone? It’s lunchtime-are you all busy?”
Still, Beck didn’t reply.
Then, Wynn finally sent a message. “Saw it.”
Miles perked up and asked, “Smart as you are, you must already know what's going on, right?”
Like Beck, Wynn had immediately guessed what was happening the moment she saw the picture.
She chuckled and replied, “A blind date?”

“Bingo!”
Wynn looked at Miles’ reply and smiled but didn’t continue the conversation.
A few days ago, although she hadn't attended Martha's birthday banquet, she had heard about Matthias’ mother
expressing approval of Celeste.
Apparently, Matthias’ mother had even said that if Celeste and Matthias were ready, she could start preparing
for their wedding anytime.
When Wynn first heard this, she found it absurd
She was certain that Matthias’ mother had only said that because she didn’t really know Celeste. Otherwise, she
wouldn't have made such a statement at Martha's birthday banquet.
In other words, Matthias’ mother was probably completely unaware of Celeste’s past with Trevor
If she ever found out that Celeste had been married before, there was no way she would agree to Celeste
marrying into their family.
Since neither Trevor nor Beck had responded yet, Miles impatiently tagged them both.
Seeing that they still hadn't replied, he asked Wynn, “Trevor isn’t with you?”
Wynn saw the message and replied, “No, he had something to do. He left on a business trip this morning.”
“Alright then.”
Just as he sent that message, Trevor finally appeared in the chat with a brief response. “Noted.”
