True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)

Chapter 1304

Celeste was dumbfounded and didn't know how to reply to her.

Grace smirked again and explained, "Of course, we won't bully her. We'll only be having aconversation with her. You have to believe that a lot of things can be solved through words."

"Auntie, are you going to have a conversation with my aunt?"

Celeste was very anxious. Her aunt was someone very sharp, and she had a very bad temper.Nevertheless, Grace seemed like she was someone who had everything planned out and that madeCeleste feel assured.

Grace nodded and answered, "I think it's time for us to meet up."

"But I know that my aunt is not someone who is easily convinced," Celeste hesitated, but she stillspoke about the worries she had in mind.

Grace only laughed, "Celeste, don't overthink things. You are too young to be thinking about allthese. You'll only tire yourself out. Just concentrate on your studies and enjoy yourself."

Celeste naturally understood what Grace meant. However, she was not the kind of child who couldenjoy herself at will.

"Tell me, if your aunt really cut off all ties with you, are you not planning to care about her in thefuture?" Seeing that Celeste had fallen silent, Grace decided to ask.

Celeste paused for a second and shook her head.

She didn't really need to give it much thought.

"Mrs. Smith, no matter what happens, nothing can change the fact that I was adopted by my aunt.For so many years, she had given me a home and supported me. Although we are in this messnow, after I grow up, as long as she needs any help, I will help her on the premise that I don't violatethe law or my moral conscience. If she needs me to support her one day, I will be willing to helpher."

Her decision came despite the fact that they were in a terrible fight.

Nothing could change the fact that Cindy was the person who raised her.

Hence, Celeste had never thought of cutting Cindy off from her life.

Upon hearing this, Grace had a delighted smile on her face. She seemed to be very satisfied withCeleste's answer. From this, it could be deduced that Celeste was a very kind and benevolent child.

"Good girl. One day, you will be rewarded for your kind actions," Grace patted Celeste on theshoulder and said, "That is how it should be. Humans cannot hold grudges for too long, and theycannot be too heartless."

Celeste looked at Grace in surprise.

She did not expect Grace to say that. Her smile was so warm and kind. She looked at Grace, onlyto find that Grace's gaze was warm and tender.

"I understand," Celeste also gathered up her courage and smiled at Grace.

"About this, Uncle Jones and I will have a discussion with her, and we will try to convince her tocontinue to be your guardian. If she insists on cutting off all ties, we will have no choice but torespect her decision. When that happens, we are willing to become your guardian."

Celeste was surprised and asked, "Y-you want to become my guardian?"

Grace smiled and nodded, "Only if Cindy insists on cutting off all ties."

Celeste nodded and answered softly, "Thank you, Aunt Smith," She addressed Grace moreintimately now after the explanation.

"Great. Now, pack up and come back with us first. It's not safe and convenient to live in a hotel.Let's go home first. You'll have Maria and the rest of us to accompany you," Grace chuckled.

Celeste was initially very hesitant, but under the influence of Grace's kind and gentle smile, sheeventually packed up her things and followed Grace back.novelbin

On the other end, Cindy was exasperated the moment she returned to the hotel.

For the entire night, she couldn't even keep her emotions under check.

When her assistant, Katherine Yates, came over and saw that she was so frustrated, she decided topersuade Cindy, "Why do you have to be so angry? She is just a child."

"She's a child without conscience," Cindy cursed.

"I think she has a conscience," Katherine whispered, "The child is afraid that you are still not overHeinz and you might possibly destroy his marriage. After all, he is her classmate's father."

"So you're saying that I'm wrong and she's right?" Cindy raised her eyebrows at Katherine andshouted impatiently.

"Cindy, are you still in love with Heinz?" Katherine quickly followed up.

Cindy frowned. When she thought of Heinz, a bunch of emotions welled up in her heart. She wasagitated as well and sighed, "I'm upset. I'm just very angry."

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"I won't answer that," Cindy shouted in a childish way, "I just want to buy that house. I have to."

"Then buy it. If you have money, you can buy it," Katherine smirked and continued, "It's not like youif you don't spend money after earning them."

"Are you mocking me?" Cindy glared at Katherine.

Katherine sighed, "Cindy, we have known each other for so many years. Are you really willing tosee Celeste leave?"

Cindy froze, and she looked even more awkward.

Concurrently, there was a knock on the door.

Katherine said, "I think that might be Mr. Robinson."

Cindy frowned.

However, Katherine had already opened the door.

When she opened the door, she saw Liam standing at the door. He looked like he was on his guard,complete with a cap and some sunglasses.

"Is Miss White here?" Liam lowered his volume.

"Yes," Katherine let him in and closed the door. She followed behind him and said, "Perhaps youmight be able to convince her. She is really mad today. Celeste really angered her."

"I'll go take a look," Liam took off his glasses and cap as he went in.

As soon as he entered, he saw Cindy sitting on the sofa. She had a large frown on her face, andher fingers were tapping the armrest of the sofa impatiently.

From the looks of it, she was indeed very upset.

After Liam entered, Cindy didn't look at him and continued to sit there.

Liam had a feeling that Cindy was furious this time, and she seemed to be very upset with herselftoo.

He knew that he caused Miss White to be in such an awkward spot. If he was not involved in this,Celeste would probably not get in such a huge fight with her.

After all, Celeste was still a kid. Liam personally thought that Cindy shouldn't be this unforgiving.How could she allow an underaged kid to leave like this? It was way too cruel towards Celeste.

Yet, there were some things that he just couldn't say out loud.

Liam stood in front of Cindy and waited for a while. Seeing that Cindy still had no intention to speak,he tried asking, "Miss White, please calm down."

Cindy still didn't say anything.

Liam had no choice but to sigh, "Celeste is only 16 years old. I know that you must be exasperatedtoday. She did go too far."

"But personally, you think I'm the one who's to blame, right?" Cindy's gaze suddenly swept overLiam. The displeasure was obvious in her gaze.

Liam was stupefied and looked at Cindy with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Then, he lowered hisgaze and did not look at her.

Cindy snorted softly and uttered, "Liam, you don't have to pretend anymore. I know what kind ofperson you are. You must think that I shouldn't have such a huge fight with Celeste. Even if she is

ignorant and offends me, I shouldn't have driven her out."

Liam didn't expect that Cindy could read his mind so easily. He felt a little awkward and repeatedawkwardly, "Miss White, please calm down."

"If you have a problem with that, then why don't you just tell me?" Cindy pressed on.

For a moment, Katherine, who was some distance away, also looked at Liam.

Liam's expression froze for a moment, and a look of helplessness flashed across his eyes. He couldonly sigh in the face of the exasperated Miss White.

"Since you have read my mind, then I will be frank.

You shouldn't have been so harsh with her," Liam was very straightforward.

"Hmph," Cindy's expression was solemn. She stared at Liam with a complicated expression andsaid, "So you've persuaded her not to leave?"

Liam pursed his lips and nodded after a long while, "Yes, Celeste is still quite obedient. She'sstaying in the apartment. I'm here to persuade you. Please calm down. I'll ask her to apologize toyou."

"Are you sure she's really so obedient that she'll stay there quietly after you leave?" Cindy's gazewas fixed on Liam.

Liam was dumbfounded and stared at Cindy in astonishment. He gawked, "You mean Celeste isgoing to run away on her own?"

"I'm sure she's gone," Cindy was dead serious.

Liam panicked and shook his head, muttering, "That can't be. Celeste promised me."

"Do you think you know her more than me?" Cindy questioned him back.

Liam was puzzled and frowned slightly. He picked up his phone to call his driver and ordered coldly,"Go and check if Celeste is still in the apartment right now."

After hanging up the phone, he looked up and saw that Cindy was staring at her.

Liam put down his phone and sat down on the sofa next to Cindy. His expression was grave.

He was also a little anxious after listening to what Cindy had told him. What if Celeste really left?

After all, back then, the situation seemed too good to be true. Celeste and Cindy had such a hugefight, but she suddenly promised to stay in the apartment obediently. Now that Liam calmed down,he also felt that everything went on too smoothly.

Celeste was most probably no longer in the apartment.

Sure enough, after half an hour, the phone call came, "Mr. Robinson, Miss White's apartment isempty. She's not there."
