Chapter 37
“And yon. Toastedecent cream bies, regular sugar, with no for and extra coconut cream.”
Kelly listed the orders without a moment of hesitation, then to the ticket stub from the side and placed it in front of them. “You can check if I got it right. If you
The prople around them looked stunned, shocked by Kelly’s memory.
fiut not a single one of Celeste’stidends stepped forward to verify it–because they knew better than anyone that Kelly had gotten every detall right.
What was upposed to be a moment to embarrass her had completely backfired celeste had given her a platform to show off instead
Celeste’s fare fumed from red to ashen..
Kelly looked at her and said something that made it even worse. “Do you know why I do so well in school? Because I’ve got a good memory”
Celeste’s expression darkened. She gifted her teeth and muttered under her breath, “Kelly, I wasn’t going to let this go, but I’m warning you stay away from Jide. If you make a move on him, I won’t let it slide”
With that, she spun around and stormed out of The Sippery, her friends trailing after her.
The scene finally ended, and the bystanders dispersed. Siena gave Kelly an approving look.
kelly s scratched her head a little sheepishly. She wasn’t usually someone who argued or defended herself, but this time, Celeste had gone too far. If she hadn’t been pushed, she wouldn’t have reacted like that at all.
As she cleaned the counter, Keily felt a gaze on her. She looked up and unexpectedly locked eyes with Gavin.
He probably didn’t expect their eyes to meet. His gaze darted away, and he quickly lowered his head, pretending to focus on his work
Belly didn’t think much of it. That was, until she went to the locker room to change and Gavin suddenly came in
The woman’s changing room was in the innermost cubicle. All the male employees knew that, and they normally wouldn’t go in, But Kelly always had a habit of locking the door anyway.
This time, Sienna had gone in briefly to grab something and didn’t lock it when she left. And somehow, Gavin ended up walking in.
Thankfully, Kelly had already finished changing. When he saw her, he immediately stammered that he wasn’t used to the layout yet and had thought it was the men’s changing room. He panicked and quickly backed out
But Kelly had a bad feeling.
That feeling only got worse the next day.
She handed Gavin a plate of macks a customer had ordered his job was to bring them to the table. When he took the plate from her, his fingers brushed hers. It was subtle but unanistakable.
These was plenty of room on the plate for him to avoid touching her
Goosebumps broke out instantly on Kelly’s arms. She glanced at Gavin, but he had already walked off with the snacks.
The spot where he had touched her felt like it had been bitten by something. She scrubbed her hands again and again, but the feeling wouldn’t go away.
Kelly couldn’t help thinking of something Sienna had once mentioned about Gavin.

Since she and God worked together more often, lud Sienna already noticed something was off but didn’t speak up because he was Caleb’s younger brother–i
Kelly’s thoughts drifted uneasily until she suddenly sensed someone behind her.
A hand landed on her hip
Horrified, Kelly spun around and shoved the person behind her.
