Chapter 298

Afterward, Jasper-beaming with pride-turned to Foreman. "So, Foreman, what did you think of Rachel's violin performance?"

Foreman's smile remained warm. "It was beautiful."

Foreman's smile turned a touch wistful. "Maybe it's because... I've seen something even more breathtaking."

Foreman didn't hesitate; he admitted it openly.

"I have."
