He paused for a moment. Staring at Celeste, he asked, “How did she…”

Celeste didn’t know that this little girl was actually his niece as well.

She explained, “She fell into the pool, and I pulled her out

“Thank you,” Beck responded.

“You’re welcome,” said Celeste. “Please help her change into dry clothes, in case she catches a cold.”

Beck nodded in agreement. He looked at Celeste and wanted to say something, but his niece’s cries interrupted him. Shanice kept sobbing as if she was scared out of her wits. Thus, Beck comforted her and walked into the elevator after giving Celeste a quick nod.

Celeste went back to the pool afterward.

After soaking in the hot spring, she changed into a fresh set of clothes and went to the buffet area.

Before she could finish her meal, Beck appeared in front of her. He was holding Shanice’s hand.

“Mind if we sit here?”

Honestly, Celeste didn’t want to get too involved with Beck

But he had asked politely, so Celeste could only nod in response. “Not at all. Please, take a seat.”

“Stay here, Shanice. I’ll get you some food,” said Beck as he turned to Shanice.

Shanice timidly cast an eye on Celeste and nodded. “Okay… she whispered.

Then, Beck turned to Celeste. “Please take care of her for a while.”

Despite Celeste’s reluctance to have too many interactions with Beck, she could only promise him that at this

moment

After Beck left, Celeste and Shanice stared at each other across the table.

Shanice seemed very shy. Celeste was worried that speaking suddenly would frighten her,

She didn’t know Shanice’s eating habits, and she wasn’t sure if Shanice had any allergies. Hence, Celeste didn’t dare to casually offer Shanice food from her plate.

Celeste hesitated for a while. Then, she gently uttered, “Your uncle will be back sooIL”

Shanice gazed at Celeste with her pretty eyes. Seconds later, she nodded.

“Does your nose still hurt from earlier?”

Shanice shook her head.

Moments later, Beck carne back to the table and placed a plate before Shanice. He also gave her a pair of utensils. Shanice then quietly nibbled on the food

Beck asked, “Is it delicious?”

Shanice nodded in reply.

Beck took a glance at Celeste and said, “Shanice, Ms. Rodriguez was the one who saved you just now. You should thank her.”

Shanice was licking the cake off the fork. She raised her eyes to look at Celeste and mumbled in a low voice,” Thank you, Ms. Rodriguez.”

It turned out that Beck brought Shanice here just to thank Celeste.

Upon hearing Shanice’s words, Celeste replied softly, “You’re welcome.”

Shanice then looked at Beck again. “It’s all good now. Eat up,” Beck remarked.

Shanice lowered her head and continued eating.
