“ Miss , would you like some chocolate – covered fruit ? ”
Celeste turned around .
The plump fruits on the skewer gleamed temptingly in the light , stirring something in her heart . It had been a long time since she’d had chocolate – covered fruit .
With that thought , she glanced in Jordyn’s direction .
As expected , she saw the little girl happily munching on a skewer of chocolate – covered fruit .
Aside from that , at some point , Wynn had acquired a bouquet of red roses .
She leaned against Trevor , talking to him , while Jordyn handed her the skewer with a bite taken out of it .
Wynn smiled as she accepted it and took a bite right from Jordyn’s hand . After another bite , Jordyn passed it to Trevor .
Trevor shook his head , said something she couldn’t hear , and declined .
Celeste withdrew her gaze and said to the vendor , “ I’ll take a skewer of strawberries . ”
Just as she was about to ask Caleb if he wanted one , he spoke first , “ I’ll handle it . ”
Before she could react , he had already taken out his phone , paid for it , and accepted the skewer from the vendor before handing it to her.
It was only ten dollars .
Seeing this , Celeste reached out to take it and said , “ Thankyou . ”
“ You’re welcome . ”
As they exchanged words , neither of them noticed that Wynn and Trevor had turned to look in their direction just in time to witness Caleb paying for Celeste’s chocolate – covered fruit .
Trevor’s gaze darkened slightly , while Wynn’s smile faded once again .
Celeste and Caleb , however , remained oblivious to them .
The fireworks show lasted around 20 minutes .
As it continued , they turned back to watch
Jordynflugged on Trevor’s sleeve . “ Dad , Wynn , what are you looking at ? ”
Trevor retracted his gaze . “ Nothing . ” Wynn also smiled , brushing it off .
A few minutes later , the fireworks show finally came to an end .
Celeste turned to Caleb . “ Thank you for watching the fireworks with me . And for the strawberries . ”
“ Heading back now ? ”
“ Yeah , just going to buy some plants , then I’ll head home .
Caleb didn’t try to keep her . “ Alright . Goodbye . ”
“ Goodbye ”

Celeste walked away .
Caleb followed the crowd , heading toward the parking lot . But after only a few steps , someone called out to him .
“ Caleb ? ” It was Jorge’s voice .
Caleb turned around . “ Jorge . ”
Jorge walked over . “ What are you doing here ? “ !
“ Had dinner with a friend , ” Caleb replied . “ You ? ”
Jorge looked a bit uncomfortable . “ Same here . ”
“ I was just about to head back . What about you ? ”
“ 1— ” Jorge started to speak , but suddenly fell silent , his gaze locking onto something in the distance .
Caleb followed his line of sight and saw what he was looking at – Trevor and Wynn . They didn’t seem to be leaving but had instead entered a cafe .
Jorge’s eyes remained fixed in that direction . “ That little girl … Could the rumors be true ? Does Trevor really have a daughter ? ”
Caleb wasn’t particularly interested in this topic . “ Maybe . ”
Jorge stood still , lips pressed into a thin line .
If that girl really was Trevor’s daughter , then wouldn’t Wynn have to suffer a lot in the future ?
Moreover , there had also been rumors that Trevor was already married . What if that were true ?
If Trevor and his ex – wife became entangled again because of their child , wouldn’t Wynn suffer even more ? 1
