"Therefore, I specifically asked someone to invite Mr. Yoder, hoping that Ms. Rodriguez will attend the banquet tonight."
Philip then glanced at Wynn and Trevor before continuing. "As for Ms. Locket, I only learned that she was interested in studying under me tonight when I spoke with her. However, after having a more in-depth conversation with Ms. Rodriguez, I became even more certain about who I wanted to take on.
"Before that, I had never given Ms. Locket any definite answer. And once I had made my decision, I immediately turned her down. So, it was not Ms. Rodriguez deliberately taking away Ms. Locket's chance of becoming my student."
After Philip finished speaking, another wave of murmurs swept through the banquet hall.
"When Mr. Newman rejected her, she assumed Ms. Rodriguez had sabotaged her. Now, Professor Lancaster has also chosen Ms. Rodriguez over her, and she still thinks Ms. Rodriguez is pulling strings behind the scenes. She's really shameless!"
"Maybe she's done so many underhanded things that she just assumes everyone else is just like her."
Philip looked toward Celeste, seemingly wanting to say something to her.
Celeste noticed and was about to speak when her phone suddenly rang. She answered it, and after hearing what the person on the other end said, she replied, "Okay, I understand. I'll be there in a bit."
Matthias also received a call at the same time.
By then, Philip had already come down from the stage and walked over to them.
However, Matthias spoke first. "I'm sorry, Professor Lancaster. Something urgent has come up, and we need to get back to the company. We'll take our leave now. And I'm really sorry about tonight."
"It's alright." Philip looked at Celeste after saying that.
Now that he knew that Celeste was Zachary's student, there was no chance for her to become his student anymore. He couldn't help feeling it was a shame.
He realized that Celeste was an exceptionally calm and composed person. The more he observed her, the more he liked her.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
Trevor, you're damned... I just wanted to say this for no reason....
Are we back to having rage baiting chapter?...
I don't want to raise my hopes regarding this lawsuit. I'm sure the bank (Trevor) will get them out of there....
Let's beat around the bush again...
Uhuh. And what, pray tell, is it that you know to be doing Trevor?...
Mr. Lincoln, you never raised your son. He is not a real man... When I see him, I just remember the line from the song that says "I guess no one ever told you how to be a real man."...
Did Trevor shut down the internet? If he does it, he's truly the biggest whore I've ever seen in my life... This guy raised my blood pressure throughout 800 chapters...
ok im done im not reading this trash anymore its repetitive celeste finally speaks and its less than 5 words.this isn't good at all and now we're getting the netizens pov but not hers. EVERYBODY HAS AN OPINION EXCEPT HER AND TREVOR...
I’m not liking where this is headed.. I’m getting the sense that the author is following the revenging husband storyline and Trevor did all this just to avenge his wife...
Isn't this a company that Celeste and Matthias work for? This will be a fatal blow to those scoundrels....
