The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 344

That would be incredibly petty. That incident happened a while ago; it was impressive he had held onto the grudge for this long.

Callahan seemed dissatisfied with her shock. He raised an eyebrow, his tone bordering on arrogant. "Micah gave you bags. I gave you fireworks. Is there a problem?"

He scoffed lightly. "Surely my fireworks aren't inferior to the bags he gave you?"

Leilani couldn't help but laugh. "Callahan, are you five years old?"

Callahan didn't flinch. "Not childish. I just refuse to lose to Micah."

Leilani laughed out loud. Usually, Callahan was the picture of calm and restraint, but when it came to this, he was childish in the cutest way possible.

Regardless of the motive, Leilani loved the display. Even if it was born of a rivalry with Micah, the effort he put into it was visible.

The night breeze brushed past them, the glow of the fireworks casting a soft, romantic filter over the scene.

Down below, near the river by the Langley Group building, a crowd had gathered, looking up in awe at the display.

"Wow! Is someone proposing? That's so romantic!"

"My god, they actually spelled out a name with fireworks! Do you know how much that costs?"

"I wonder who the lucky girl is. She's so happy!"

"Is this a movie shoot? Or maybe we're just extras in someone else's rom-com?"

...

The fireworks eventually faded, returning the night sky to silence. Leilani and Callahan stood quietly in the aftermath.
