Chapter 40
Matthias asked, “So?”
Joshua replied, “Given her background, it’s impressive that she can even be part of our circle, let alone in the circles of the Fleming family and other prominent families. However, Ms. Locket has easily integrated into their core circle and built strong relationships. She’s truly remarkable.
“Initially, I was puzzled by Trevor’s unexpected appearance at my dinner party. However, I later discovered that he had come to introduce guests to Ms. Locket.
“Trevor’s effort to build connections for Ms. Locket and bring Beck and others along shows he is serious about her. If she were just a passing interest, he wouldn’t have bothered. With Trevor’s support, the Locket family will thrive in the future.”
Matthias and Celeste listened intently, yet both remained silent.
In the end, Joshua let out a heartfelt sigh. “The Locket family is truly fortunate to have a daughter like her. It’s genuinely admirable.”
As Joshua concluded his speech, Celeste looked around and realized that Trevor and the others had already exited the banquet hall, leaving early. Despite being aware of her presence, Trevor hadn’t cast even a single glance in her direction throughout the entire event.
