Female Novel
Chapter 1363
Maria instantly felt guilty and impatient after being exposed.
She couldn't help but think of Liam.
She thought about the fact that she came to study in the UK for the sake of her love for Liam. Sheabandoned her entire family to come to London. She had been secretly in love with him, but whatcould she do?
Four years had passed, but nothing changed.
She felt a heaviness in her chest, which was painful and suffocating. It was as if someone haddropped a stone on her chest, preventing her from breathing properly.
Maria wanted to admit it, but she didn't have the right to.
Liam couldn't even remember what her last name was.
All of this was just her wishful thinking. Having a crush on an idol was a sad and depressing thing inthe first place.
Now, she was slightly calmer. Although the sharp pain was still there, she believed that the painwould make her stronger.
She couldn't bow down so easily.
After a slight pause, Maria immediately smiled, "Gary, your imagination is wild, but please don'tthink too much. We're going downstairs, and Ernest is there as well. It's time to go, Celeste."
After saying that, Maria grabbed Celeste's arm and walked out first.
Behind them, Gary narrowed his eyes and looked at them. He did not stop them from leaving.
When they went downstairs together, the butler immediately asked someone to bring them somefruits and snacks.
Maria went downstairs while holding onto Celeste's arm and saw that Ernest was still meditating. Hemust have heard the footsteps, but he chose to ignore them and play dumb. She couldn't help butshout at him.
"Wake up, Ernest."
As soon as Maria shouted, Ernest opened his eyes.
Behind him, Gary let out a soft laugh and chimed in, "Yes, it's time for Ernest to wake up. Meditatingis good, but it's for the elderly. Am I right, Maria?"
Maria turned around to look at Gary. She curled her lips and said, "Gary, I wonder who came backwith a stormy face around two days ago, and has been treating everyone angrily as though we allowed him several hundred bucks. It's so surprising that he suddenly changed his mind thisafternoon."
Gary didn't take her seriously and sat down on the sofa.
Celeste couldn't help but laugh. It seemed like Gary hadn't been happy at all for the past two days.Apparently, he'd been so straight-laced and downcast that everyone noticed.
She stole a glance at Gary. Coincidentally, he was also looking at her.
Their gazes met in midair.
Celeste immediately withdrew her gaze with a smile on her lips.
"Why are you suddenly happy?" Maria looked at Gary.
Gary also turned to look at Maria and shot back, "Who are you talking about?"
"Haha!"
Maria couldn't help but laugh.
Celeste was also stunned. It was amazing that this man could act as if he didn't understandanything.
Ernest didn't say anything, nor did he continue to meditate. He just looked at Celeste and then atGary. His face was calm as he listened silently to their conversation.
"Gary, if it wasn't you, who could it be?" Maria knew that Gary wouldn't admit it. She intentionallyteased him, "I think we found that you came home with a glum expression? We haven't met for somany years, yet you choose to be so mean the moment you return? You're horrible!"
Gary refused to entertain her.
"Am I right?" Maria looked at Celeste and used the topic to drag her into the conversation.
Celeste tilted her head and smiled, but didn't answer her either.
Meanwhile, Gary raised his eyebrows and glanced at Maria. His intention was obvious. Celestewould not say anything about it.
"Celeste, why won't you say anything?" Maria asked deliberately.
"Me?" Celeste chuckled. Looking at Maria's mischievous appearance, it was obvious that she haddone it on purpose. She felt helpless and shrugged, "I didn't see his depressed face, so I can'texpress my opinion."
Maria wrinkled her nose and looked at Ernest in an attempt to rope him in as well, "Ernest, do youhave anything to say?"
"I have nothing to say," Ernest spread out his hands and sat on the sofa lazily, "But you talk toomuch. Don't you get tired?"
"I don't," Maria shook her head and explained, "If none of us take the initiative to talk, wouldn't ourgathering be overly silent?"novelbin
Gary raised his eyebrows but did not say anything.
Similarly, Ernest shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't care.
Maria rolled her eyes at the twins, "See, you two are so boring. I'm going to chat with Celeste. Youtwo can sit here."
After that, Maria pulled Celeste and stood up, "Let's go, Celeste. Let's go upstairs and chat."
Gary frowned, "Didn't you say that the four of us should be together? Where do you think you'regoing?"
"You can talk to Ernest," Maria pointed at Ernest, "I'll borrow Celeste for half an hour."
No matter what Gary thought, Maria still dragged Celeste away.
As soon as she returned to her room, she asked Celeste to sit down. Her eyes were looking atCeleste with suspicion, seemingly a hundred questions weighing on her mind.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Even
Celeste felt a little embarrassed by the intense gaze in her eyes.
"You did it with Gary already, didn't you?" Maria was straightforward. She blinked rapidly, her tonefilled with curiosity.
Celeste's face turned red in an instant. Of course, she denied it, "Wh- why do you ask me abouteverything?"
"Tell me. I'm curious," Maria was expectant.
Her eyes were fixed on Celeste's face. Celeste had changed, and she had become veryeuphemistic. Her whole body exuded a temperament that belonged to a woman, which was verydazzling and beautiful.
Celeste looked up at her and pursed her lips, mumbling, "It's hard to say. I'm embarrassed to tellyou."
"Then I can ask you and you can just shake or nod your head."
"Alright," Celeste eventually nodded.
"Have you kissed Gary?" Maria asked.
Celeste's face turned red again as she blushed. She felt both embarrassed and happy. Shehesitated for a while and then nodded.
"Wow, you guys are impatient," Although Maria felt that this was what Gary would do, she did notexpect him to be so anxious. The moment he arrived, he announced his claim over Celeste.
Celeste grew even more flustered. She blushed and lowered her head, looking quite happy.
When she lowered her head, her hair hung down to expose her slender neck. There was a clear redmark on it.
"Oh my god!" Maria saw it and jumped up instantaneously. She widened her eyes and reached outto grab Celeste's shoulder. She took one look at Celeste's neck and gasped, "H- he kissed yourneck? That's a hickey, isn't it!"
Celeste was as red as a tomato. She didn't admit it or deny it.
Her silence told Maria everything.
Maria once again looked at her, blinking her eyes in astonishment and disbelief. Then, she droppedthe bomb, "Celeste, tell me, did he go all the way with you?"
