“Devin, want to step in and take a load off?” Ariana inquired.

Devin, yanked back to the moment, declined.

“Nah. Got other fish to fry. Just watch over Adele, okay?”

Handing over Adele’s little backpack, he filled Ariana in on the latest about Adele, and they settled on a

time for Adele’s pick-up.

Wrapping up, Devin was about to hit the road when a familiar kid’s voice echoed.

“Mom, did sis get here yet?”

That voice made Devin stop dead. Whipping around, and just as Ariana was nearly shutting the door,

he spotted the unmistakable silhouette of Melon.

Before he knew it, Ariana had shut the door.

Staring at that firmly closed door, disbelief was plastered all over Devin’s face. He was sure he had just

caught a fleeting glimpse of Melon inside!

Having keenly watched Melon at the summer camp, Devin was familiar with his looks and voice. And

that quick peek moments ago just confirmed his hunch.

A thrill ran through Devin, making his hands quiver.

Now, if that kid went by the name Max and was Ariana’s child… And given that Melon looked to be

about four or five, it synced up with events from half a decade ago.

Melon was the spitting image of a young Holden. It was no wonder Devin had considered him as a

Fredrick at the camp.

Melon had to be Holden’s son!

So, Ariana hadn’t gone ahead with the abortion, and she had given birth to the kid after the crash.

The gravity of it all had Devin buzzing. He was itching to head back in and get to Melon.

After all, Melon was the next in line for the Fredrick legacy. If only Aldus were around, he would be over

the moon with a granddaughter and a grandson.

But as thoughts of Adele filled his mind, Devin’s enthusiasm cooled.
