Caleb's phone rang. After a moment, he put it down and said, “I have something to take care of. I'm heading
back first-want to calong?”
Jorge snapped out of his thoughts, his eyes darkening slightly. “No, I'm waiting for someone. You go ahead. Let's
catch up another time.”
“Alright.” Caleb left.
Once his figure disappeared, Jorge turned and walked toward the cafe.
As he pushed the door open, he happened to run into Wynn, who was about to take Jordyn to the restroom.
Both of them stopped in their tracks,

“Oh...” Jordyn nodded.
Wynn then turned back to Jorge. “Mr. Robinson, are you meeting a friend-"

Wynn smiled. “Sure.”

Seeing this, Wynn forgot all about Jorge and quickly followed. “Jo, wait for me!”
Jorge watched, his frown deepening. In lids eyes, Jordyn was far too willful.
Jordyn was about to say something when she suddenly halted, turning to look off to the side.
“Jo?” Wynn caught up, noticing that she had stopped in her tracks. A thought flashed through her mind-could
she have seen Celeste?
Glancing at Jorge, who was approaching quickly, Wynn's eyes flickered as she took Jordyn’s hand.
“Jo, didn’t you need the restroom? Let’s-"
