The Breaking Point of Love

The Scent of 101

Chapter 101

The hot spring retreat was vast, and Celeste had no idea where Trevor and the others were. She didn’t run into them when she went downstairs.

Since the sky hadn’t completely darkened yet, Celeste called on two staff members to help her and headed up the mountain.

At this hour, the wind was a bit chilly, but she was dressed warmly and didn’t feel cold. She spent some time enjoying the breeze and picking apples, which helped clear her mind.

With so many people helping, it didn’t take long to fill two or three cartons of apples.

After they finished, she didn’t head down immediately. The sunset was beautiful today, so she sat down to appreciate it for a while.

Just then, she heard footsteps and the voice of a child.

She turned her head and met Beck’s gaze.

He clearly hadn’t expected to run into her either and hesitated for a moment.

At that moment, the child on the video call excitedly exclaimed, “Ms. Rodriguez!”

It turned out that Beck was on a video call with Shanice, showing her the apples on the trees. He had planned to pick some to take home tomorrow for her.

But he hadn’t expected to run into Celeste on the mountain.
