Chapter 1275

Soon, they arrived at Celeste's apartment.

After returning to the apartment, Celeste took Ernest and Maria upstairs carefully to pack up herthings.

For the time being, she needed to move and sort out her things.

The first thing she did when she went back was to check if someone had followed her. After makingsure that everything was fine, she entered the apartment building.

After packing her luggage, Ernest helped her carry it down.

Then, Celeste informed her guardian and left.

At dusk, they returned to the place where Ernest and Maria lived. The villa was quite large.

With the financial resources of Heinz and Zachary, they could rent any place they wanted here.

As soon as they entered the manor- style villa, Celeste was attracted to the garden inside. Livinghere was quiet and peaceful. Her mood would indeed change for the better.

Maria took Celeste upstairs and went straight to the door on the second floor. Maria pointed to thefirst room on the left and said, "This room is mine. You will live in the second room next to mine.Ernest's room is on the right. The butler and drivers live on the first floor."

Ernest moved her luggage to the door of the room and said to them, "Maria, help Celeste unpackher things. I'm going to see if dinner is ready."

"Alright," Maria nodded and brought Celeste into the room.

After Celeste entered the room, she found that the whole room was clean and tidy. The room had amodern design and looked extremely elegant. Most of the furniture in the room had a popular whitetheme.

"How is it?" Maria looked around and gestured, "It's not bad, right?"

Celeste nodded and said, "Of course, it's amazing. It's such a beautiful environment and you'vegiven me a spacious room. Thank you, Maria."

"See, you're treating me as an outsider now," Maria looked at her with a smile, "You don't have to beso courteous. Besides, we're friends. Maybe you'll become my sister-in-law in the future."

Celeste blushed instantly. She looked at Maria with embarrassment and did not dare to look her inher eyes. Instead, Celeste turned around and laughed it off, "What are you talking about? We arestill young. Who knows what will happen in the future?"

Celeste felt that there were many variables in life. Even if one worked hard, one might not be able tobreak through the chains of fate.

There were things that might not go as smoothly as one wished.

"You have to believe, Celeste," Maria advised, "Look, if you strongly believe in something, it willdefinitely work. But if you don't and give up, you won't work hard for it anymore. I'm different fromyou. I just think that effort will definitely pay off."

For example, she managed to meet Liam today. She had been working hard to meet him for solong.novelbin

Now, she finally got what she wished for.

Therefore, Maria was really optimistic.

Celeste smiled, but her face was still red. She didn't know what could happen between her andGary. Moreover, they had only shared a kiss before parting, nothing else happening after that. Howcould she ever think of marrying Gary for the rest of her life just because of this?

Such thoughts seemed pretty shameless.

In fact, Celeste was frightened by Maria's proposal.

"Maria, we don't know what Gary is thinking."

"You don't have to worry about what Gary is thinking. You have to think about it yourself. If youpersist, you can do whatever you want," Maria said to her, "Do you understand? Your actions willallow you to achieve your goal. No matter what Gary thinks, if you persist, you'll be able to changethe situation."

Celeste couldn't help laughing, "It's not just one person's hard work. Besides, we're only 16 yearsold. We're thinking too far ahead."

"I am thinking far ahead! I just want to dream of my future husband, Liam. I'm going to marry him inthe future," After saying this, Maria's cheeks were rosy and full of anticipation.

After all, she was a young girl. She would not be embarrassed by such bold statements.

At the same time, she was determined to achieve her goal.

Liam was the man she wanted to marry in the future.

Celeste was shocked.

After getting through the shock, Celeste admired Maria even more. She felt that Maria really was aclever and thoughtful girl.

Maria was indeed pretty bold to say what was on her mind and stand up for her thoughts.

Celeste looked at the light of hope glimmering in Maria's eyes. It shimmered every time she broughtup Liam, and it couldn't simply be diminished by anything else.

Celeste really hoped that such a light would always be in Maria's eyes. Whenever she mentionedthe person she kept dearly in her heart, she would always be able to have such a look on her face.

"Maria, you can do it," Celeste's eyes were shining as well. She was touched.

"Celeste," Maria looked at her in surprise and asked shyly, "Don't you think that I'm justdaydreaming?"

Celeste shook her head and assured her, "No, I think you are very brave. You have to have a goalfirst. Then, you have to work hard to achieve your goal. Only then will you achieve your goal."

"Is that so? What about you? Are you sure you'll insist on marrying Gary in the future?" Maria tookthe opportunity to ask for Celeste's opinion. Her eyes were blinking innocently and energetically.

Celeste blushed again and was embarrassed to talk about it.

She thought for a moment and finally told Maria, "I haven't thought about it yet. Once I've thoughtabout it and made up my mind, I'll tell you."

"Have you called Gary after you came to England?" Maria asked.

Celeste shook her head, "Not yet."

"Well, of course you haven't," Maria sighed, "Gary hasn't called me recently. It's very strange. Whatis he busy with?"

Upon hearing that Gary had not given Maria a call, Celeste felt a little anxious and worried.

Perhaps she didn't even realize how urgent her tone was. She quickly asked, "Why didn't he callyou? I didn't call him because it's a little embarrassing. I was thinking of calling him after I settleddown and am not so scared. Didn't he contact you? Did something happen to him?"

Then, she seemed to realize her abnormal reaction and quickly said, "No, nothing must'vehappened. I must be overthinking."

Seeing Celeste so anxious, Maria comforted her, "Don't worry. I'll call him now and catch up withhim."

Celeste nodded.

With that, Maria took out her phone and called Gary. However, after the phone rang for a while, noone answered it. They were immediately directed to voicemail.

Maria left a message for Gary, "Gary, Ernest, Celeste and I have already arrived in London for fivedays now. Today, Celeste decided to move in with us. Why haven't you called recently? We are veryworried about you, especially Celeste. She is especially worried about you. After hearing mymessage, call me immediately. It doesn't matter if you don't call me, you can just contact Celesteinstead."

Maria finished her words soon and ended the call.

Celeste frowned and looked worried.

"Don't worry. If anything happens, Lowell will tell us. Gary isn't alone in America, so don't worry."

Although Maria said so, Celeste was still worried.

She packed up her belongings and was about to go downstairs when the phone rang.
