The Scent of 223

Chapter 223

“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.
