Chapter : 577

Maybe because he noticed Wynn was distracted, Trevor asked, “

What’s wrong?”

Wynn smiled, ‘Nothing.”

He didn’t press further. 1

Miles and Beck hadn’t noticed anything off and continued their

earlier conversation. 2

After dinner, as time ticked on and it became clear that everyone

was preparing to leave, the surprise she’d been waiting for still

hadn’t appeared.

Wynn’s heart kept sinking, though she still held onto a sliver of

But once Trevor called the waiter over to settle the bill, and it

was obvious that they were truly leaving the restaurant with no

other arrangements afterward, her sinking heart finally turned

She stood frozen in place.

This time, it was Jordyn who noticed something was wrong first.

Before Wynn could respond, Trevor turned around after hearing

Jordyn’s voice, concern in his eyes. Her heart eased a little

instantly.

Back home, everyone had simply assumed he bought an

astronomical diamond to propose tonight, but no one had

actually heard anything confirming that he would propose

tonight. +

They had all read too much into it.

And even though he hadn’t proposed today like everyone

imagined, it didn’t mean their relationship had changed. 5

Trevor asked, “Are you okay?”

Wynn snapped back. “I’m fine.”

Once she thought it through, she felt much better. Though it

didn’t stop that faint disappointment from lingering.

Still… He had taken the initiative to ask Celeste for a divorce

again, which meant he still cared about her the same way.

They had time. She could wait. 7

Jordyn had attended a bunch of classes these past two days

and was clearly tired.

It was already after eight in the evening. Once they stepped out

of the restaurant, she yawned, raising her arms toward Trevor.

He picked her up immediately.

“Tired?” 1

“Mm. Daddy, let’s go home and sleep.”

“Okay.”

Watching the father and daughter interaction, Wynn’s gaze

dimmed a little.

Even if he didn’t propose tonight, it was still her birthday. Other

than the dinner, she naturally hoped the rest of the evening

would be just the two of them.

After all, that was how they used to spend her birthdays.

And Miles and Beck knew this too—that was why they ended

dinner early, deliberately giving the couple more time alone. 1

Maybe he noticed her expression, because Trevor didn’t want

her to feel disappointed. He said, “Ill call you later.” «

It meant he’d take Jordyn home first, then go to find her. 6

Wynn’s mood instantly brightened. She smiled. “Okay.”

Everyone then went their separate ways.

Wynn had barely gotten into the car when her phone buzzed

It was another message from Linda.

“Wynn, how is it going now?” 3

Wynn glanced at it and set the phone aside without replying.

When Linda first told her about the diamond and the proposal,

she had been overwhelmed with excitement and surprise. She’d

been anticipating tonight’s “surprise” all day.

Even though she wasn’t in a terrible mood now, if Trevor had

really proposed tonight, she’d—

If Linda hadn’t mentioned it again, it would’ve been fine. But now

that she brought it up, the emotional gap hit her hard. 2

And it wasn’t just Linda waiting for an update.

The rest of the Lockets and the Shaws were waiting too.

Seeing that Linda was the one probing for news, they all turned

toward her.

When she saw Wynn hadn’t replied, she smiled meaningfully. “

Wynn hasn’t responded… Probably because she’s busy—”
