Chapter 535
Miles saw everything that happened on Celeste's side. 2
But when he noticed Kieran and Caleb looking after Celeste and
Lottie, he simply assumed it was out of gentlemanliness and
didn't think much of it.
After all, there were about eight or nine people in Celeste's
group, with only Celeste and Lottie being women. It was.
perfectly normal for the men to take care of their female
companions.
Just as he looked away, Wynn returned.
“You're back," he said. "I was just about to call you. They've got
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsbarbecue ready. Ceat."
Wynn smiled. "Sure."
As soon as she finished speaking, Linda and her friends came
back too, They had gone for a short walk nearby, and Linda's
mood had improved.
When she heard there was a barbecue, she smiled faintly and
was just about to say something when she suddenly caught
sight of a familiar figure.
She froze for a moment, thinking she might have seen wrong.
Then she looked again and realized she hadn't.
Is that Celeste? What's she doing here?" ©
Celeste had actually wanted to help with the grilling earlier, but
Caleb and the others wouldn't let her.
Not wanting to get in the way, she'd stepped aside for a bit.
Because of the umbrella they were using, Linda's group couldn't
clearly see the faces of Caleb and the others—only Celeste.
Wynn already knew that Celeste and Matthias were camping
nearby too. She had been at the campsite for a little while but
hadn't gone looking for them. +
Now that she heard Linda's comment, she turned her head to
look in that direction, and sure enough, she saw Celeste and
Celeste must have sensed their gaze, because she turned her
head and met Wynn's eyes.
Seeing that it was Wynn and Linda, Celeste pressed her lips
together and quietly looked away. 2
Lottie noticed them too. She curled her lip slightly before turning
back to Celeste and muttering, "She really came. Like a ghost
from the past."
Celeste said nothing.
On the other side, Linda also snorted. "She just won't take a hint.”
Her friends, who didn't know the backstory, looked puzzled. "
Who's that?”
Linda didn't want to talk about her family affairs, so she frowned
and kept quiet. 1
