Chapter 182
“Celeste?” Caleb paused for a brief moment and continued, As in… celestial?”
“Yup.”
The name suited her a lot, but Caleb didn’t say it aloud.
Jorge, Miles, Beck, Wynn, and Trevor all noticed what was happening.
Switching partners on the dance floor was nothing unusual.
But Celeste and Caleb?
Visually speaking, they looked incredible together.
Jorge furrowed his brows.
And Beck stilled for a second.
His partner looked at him and asked, “Mr. Harper?”
Beck averted his gaze. “I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine.”
There was indeed nothing unusual about swapping partners on the dance floor.
To him, even swapping partners with Trevor was fine.
But Celeste…
It was Wynn’s first time seeing Caleb tonight.
Jorge had stopped by to say hello, but Caleb hadn’t come with him.
Hence, she had no idea about Caleb’s background.
But from the way Jorge and Xavier treated Caleb, she knew his status had to be at least equal to Jorge’s.
Wynn frowned as she watched Celeste dance with Caleb, her face tinged with red, while Caleb seemed to treat her rather well.
Just then, Miles grinned and asked, “Let’s switch up for a bit, Trevor.”
Upon hearing that, Wynn snapped back to her senses.
Trevor gazed at her. “What do you say?”
Smilingly, Wynn replied, “Sure.”
Then, Trevor swapped partners with Miles.
Miles’s dance partner hadn’t expected Wynn to genuinely agree to the swap.
As Trevor held her hand and gently wrapped an arm around her waist, the lady gazed at his breathtakingly handsome face, her heart thudding uncontrollably–she even forgot to move.
The lady’s cheeks burned as she realized her blunder. She gazed flickered to Trevor in a moment of awkward. hesitation.
Chapter 182
Trevor paused for a quick moment, looking at the lady before him. With a gentle voice, he said, “Don’t be nervous.
Noticing Trevor’s gentle demeanor, she calmed herself. After a quiet apology, she gradually fell in step with him.
Initially, Wynn didn’t mind swapping dance partners.
She wasn’t worried–Trevor wouldn’t be stolen away over just one dance.
But when Wynn saw the lady’s starry–eyed, bashful expression as she looked at Trevor, she instinctively frowned.
Miles had never entertained any romantic notions about Wyn as she was dating his good friend. 1
Swapping had been a spontaneous decision.
Yet, now that the swap was done, Miles felt oddly unsettled.
Wynn was his good friend’s girlfriend, after all. Holding her hand was awkward enough, and he had no clue where to put his other hand.
Wynn stared at him and said, “It’s just a dance. Trevor won’t mind.”
Miles eased up and laughed. “You’re right.”
As they talked, Celeste and Trevor were slowly getting closer.
However, Celeste didn’t notice it at all.
Soon, she heard Trevor speak next to her. “Caleb, feel like switching?”
Celeste tilted her head, meeting Trevor’s gaze head–on.
Caleb looked at her. “Ms. Rodriguez, what do you…”
Before he could get another word out, Trevor had already made the exchange, handing his partner over.
If Caleb didn’t catch her, she’d likely fall.
Seeing Trevor reach for Celeste and ensure she wouldn’t fall, Caleb had no choice but to let go of Celeste and catch the other girl, steadying her by her waist.
It all happened so fast–before Celeste could react, she was already in Trevor’s embrace securely.
