Chapter 654 Caleb’s Displeasure
Veronica couldn’t change in the car, not when the gentlemen were around. She didn’t have any clothes
to change into either, so she told Miguel to stop the car to let her get some new clothes.
Thomas tugged on his shirt as well as he spotted a man’s fashion store nearby. “I’ll get some new
clothes too. I’ll get cooked at this rate.”
They hopped out of the car and went to the fashion stores.
Miguel lit a cigarette and took a few deep hits. There was frustration in his eyes, and he flicked the ash
outside the window. “Will she take it well?” He wondered aloud.
Caleb was in the passenger seat. His arms were crossed, and his eyes were fixed on the road ahead
of him. A frown was furrowing his brows. It was there the moment he saw Veronica. “She’s a lot

“Yeah. She’s a nice lady. No wonder Matt loves her.” Miguel nodded.
Caleb suddenly received a text message. He whipped his phone out and unlocked it. A WhatsApp
message? He opened the app and realized that the text was from Abby. The first message was a
photo.
The background was filled with falling snow, and in the forefront was a gloved hand holding cotton
candy. There was a smiley on the heart-shaped candy, and it stood out against the black glove.
The second message was a text. ‘Saw a cotton candy merchant when I came down, so I bought one.
Can’t believe it cost me seven dimes. Cotton candies sure are pricey now.’
Caleb read the text. First, he was surprised, and then he laughed.
Abby rarely contacted him. He wondered why she was texting him. Maybe she’s trying to share her
happiness with me?
“What are you staring at? You got that dumb smile on your face.” Miguel was intrigued by that laugh.
He turned around and looked at the phone. “Oh, is that from Naruto?”
What did he call her? Caleb shot Miguel a death stare.
Miguel shook his head. “Whoops, slip of the tongue.”
“Her name is not Naruto. It’s Abby,” Caleb enunciated. There was a hint of warning in his voice.
“Yeah, yeah. That’s her name.” For a moment, Miguel seemed to have put Matthew’s case behind him.
A smile wiped away his depression for the first time in a while.
These gentlemen grew up together. They were like brothers, and what happened to Matthew also hurt
them deeply.
Caleb was satisfied with Miguel’s response. Just when he was about to text Abby back, she deleted her

Abby quickly texted, ‘Sorry. That wasn’t for you.’
That explanation wiped the smile off Caleb’s face, and he started frowning again. That wasn’t for me?
Then, who was it for? Realization suddenly struck him. Is she seeing someone?
Miguel was still talking to Caleb, but when he got no answer, he turned around to see what was
happening. Okay, he doesn’t look happy. He glanced at the text and cocked his eyebrow. “Is she
seeing someone?”
Caleb’s frown deepened, and the look in his eyes darkened. “Is it that obvious?”
“Nobody would send that stupid picture otherwise. Only young couples deeply in love would share
everything in their lives with their partner.” Miguel raised his hand and popped the cigarette into his
mouth, and then he drew a deep hit. “I told you you’re a blockhead.” He chuckled.
