Sabrina pondered for a moment before responding, “I'm okay with that.

But I'd appreciate it if you could manage to keep this information from reaching your parents. And please make sure that your friends in your social media won't Leak this news to the public. I prefer to keep my personal life away from the public eye."

Being Tyrone's ex-wife, she was no stranger to attention.

The last thing she wanted was for opportunistic platforms to exploit her budding relationship with Trevor for clicks, potentially alerting Zeke in the process.

Upon hearing her meticulous reasoning, Trevor felt a void growing within, as if he'd never truly been close to Sabrina. Regardless, he acknowledged her sentiments, responding, "I get it."

Their relationship was fresh. Sharing their relationship with his family might be premature; they'd likely discourage it. Waiting until things settled seemed wise.

Regarding Sabrina, it was clear to him that she preferred to keep her personal life private. When he'd uncovered her true background, he had delved into past news articles. The slander he found on Internet aimed at her made him feel even more compassionate towards her plight.

After a moment of contemplation, Trevor suggested, “What if we share a photo of our hands intertwined, without revealing who you are?"

Sabrina hesitated momentarily, then softly agreed, "That sounds okay."

The car parked in a public Lot near the river's edge.

Stepping out, Sabrina was met with a brisk chill.

The cold winter night by the riverside might not have been her brightest idea, she mused.

She contemplated retreating to the warmth of the car. But Trevor, still basking in the euphoria of their newfound relationship, seemed unaffected by the cold.

Feeling somewhat obligated, she decided to join him, walking beside the river, feeling the weight of his arm draped over her shoulder.

Their hands intertwined, Trevor's Larger hand enveloping hers with warmth.

Under the gleaming neon lights, Trevor's eyes sparkled. "Sabrina, now I can proudly hold your hand for the world to see.”

Caught in the intensity of his gaze, Sabrina's heart fluttered. “Shall we take a picture of this moment?"

Sabrina believed that when the truth eventually surfaced, Trevor would have to confront a twofold challenge.

First, the painful realization that his trusted father might have dark secrets.

And then, his lover didn't hold genuine affection for him; instead, there was an ulterior motive behind her approach.
