. “It’s okay Work takes priority; Shanice will understand”
Right after she hung up, just as Celeste finished freshening up, her phone rang again.
It was a video call from Beck
Only Shanice would use his phone to video call her.
Celeste picked up, and Shanice’s bright little face popped up on the screen.
She smiled, but before she could get a word in, Shanice started talking excitedly.

Then, without pausing, Shanice added, “Uncle Beck said you're baking a cake and gotother gifts as well.
Thank you, Ms. Celeste! That's so sweet of you. My grandma says that when someone gives you a gift, you
should treat them to a meal. There's this new restaurant that’s super good-are you free tonight? Uncle Beck and
| want to take you out!”
Celeste couldn't help but chuckle. “I'm free tonight. Thank you, Shanice.”
“You don’t have to be polite, Ms. Celeste. Treating you to dinner is what | should do!”
Shanice was in a hurry to get to school. After saying goodbye, she quickly handed the phone back to Beck
Celeste and Beck confirmed a tfor dinner and then hung up.
Later that morning at work, Celeste mentioned to Matthias that she needed to return to the base again the next
day.
Matthias gave her a quick pat on the shoulder. “You've been working hard. I'll take care of things with the R&D
team; just go do what you need to do.”
“Alright, thanks.”
Celeste usually stayed in the office until past 8:00 pm.
However, she started shutting things down and getting ready to leave a little early at around 6:00 pm on that
day.
Kieran stopped at her office. He was a little surprised when he saw her packing up. “Clocking out early today?”
“Yeah I've got something to take care of,” she said, then she remembered. “Oh, right. Ill be out of town for a few
days starting tomorrow. If anything comes up, talk to Matthias directly.”
“Again?”
Celeste murmured a reply.
Kieran didn’t respond.
She had just gotten back, and now she was heading out again.
About 30 minutes later, Celeste pulled into the restaurant Beck had reserved.
As she stepped out of her car, Beck and Shanice arrived as well.
