“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.

As expected, she saw the little girl happily munching on a skewer of chocolate–covered fruit.

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.
