Chapter 388

“Beautiful lady, want some candied haws?”

Ashley turned around.

The plump, vibrantly colored candied haws caught her eye, making her heart stir slightly. She hadn’t had candied haws in ages.

The thought led her gaze to Sam. As she expected, Sam was happily munching on a string of them. And Tanya, inexplicably, was holding a bouquet of red roses. She was nestled close to Chase, chatting with him, while Sam offered her a bite of his candied haw.

Tanya took a bite, then Sam took another before offering it to Chase. Chase shook his head, saying something that Ashley couldn’t hear.

Ashley looked away and said to the vendor, “I’ll take a strawberry one.”

Before she could ask Matt if he wanted one, he said, “Let me get that.” He pulled out his phone, paid, and handed her the candied haws. It was only twenty bucks. Ashley took it, saying, “Thanks.”

“No problem.”

They didn’t notice Tanya and Chase glancing their way, catching sight of Matt paying for Ashley’s candied haws.

Chase’s eyes darkened, the smile fading from Tanya’s face. Ashley and Matt remained oblivious.
