The Breaking Point of Love novel Chapter 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.

It was only ten dollars.

Seeing this, Celeste reached out to take it and said, “Thankyou.”

“You’re welcome.”

As they exchanged words, neither of them noticed that Wynn and Trevor had turned to look in their direction just in time to witness Caleb paying for Celeste’s chocolate–covered fruit.

Trevor’s gaze darkened slightly, while Wynn’s smile faded once again.

Celeste and Caleb, however, remained oblivious to them.

The fireworks show lasted around 20 minutes.

As it continued, they turned back to watch

Jordynflugged on Trevor’s sleeve. “Dad, Wynn, what are you looking at?”

Trevor retracted his gaze. “Nothing.” Wynn also smiled, brushing it off.

A few minutes later, the fireworks show finally came to an end.

Celeste turned to Caleb. “Thank you for watching the fireworks with me. And for the strawberries.”

“Heading back now?”

“Yeah, just going to buy some plants, then I’ll head home.

Caleb didn’t try to keep her. “Alright. Goodbye.”

“Goodbye”

Celeste walked away.

Caleb followed the crowd, heading toward the parking lot. But after only a few steps, someone called out to him.

“Caleb?” It was Jorge’s voice.

Caleb turned around. “Jorge.”

Jorge walked over. “What are you doing here?“!

“Had dinner with a friend,” Caleb replied. “You?”

Jorge looked a bit uncomfortable. “Same here.”
