---- Chapter 534 Lottie grinned and raised her eyebrows. "Just now, Matthias said you were probably the sas
him, had no idea that Kieran liked you. Now that he's noticed, what about you?" Celeste's expression was
complicated. "Yeah... | noticed too." Truth was, when Kieran handed her the drink earlier, she hadn't thought
much of it. 1 It wasn't until afterward-when she saw the way Kieran looked at Caleb, that hint of hostility in his
eyes-that she finally realized what was going on. 2 Lottie laughed. Then, as if something crossed her mind, she
couldn't help but ask, "Do they know...
about your situation?" Celeste knew exactly what she meant. "More or less. | already told Caleb that I've been
married, have a kid, and that I'm getting divorced. As for Kieran... | think I've mentioned it during work before, so
he should know too." 2 Kieran knew her circumstances-and he was a few years younger than her-so when she
realized he actually had feelings ---- for her, she was honestly a little shocked. 2 Lottie nodded in approval.
"Good. | don't know them well, but | can tell they both really like you.
You should seriously consider giving them a chance." 2 Celeste bit her lip, looking down without saying anything.
Lottie knew she probably still hadn't completely walked out of her past with Trevor. Getting involved with
someone new now would just be unfair-to them and to herself. 1 Just as she was about to say something
comforting, Caleb cover with a plate of freshly grilled meat. "All done. Try it and see how it tastes?" Celeste
snapped back to the moment. She couldn't just refuse him, so she set her drink down and accepted the plate.
"Thanks." Right in front of him, she blew on it lightly and took a small bite. During the whole time, Caleb just
watched her with that quiet, gentle smile-his gaze never leaving her face. 8 Feeling his eyes on her, Celeste got
alittle self-conscious and turned her head away. Still, she didn't want to disappoint him. She took another bite
seriously before saying, "It's really good. Everything's perfect. Thank you." --— "I'm glad you like it." He smiled.
"Is it too salty? Did | overdo the seasoning?" Celeste shook her head.
'No, it's just right." "Good." Caleb could tell she was uncomfortable, so he didn't push further. "You two chat-'ll
grill a bit more." Celeste actually knew her way around the kitchen too, so she felt bad letting him do everything
alone. "I'll help you." 1 But just as she said that, Kieran cwalking over with another plate. "I made this
