True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)

Chapter 1406

"It's not the right time yet," Maria shook her head, "I have to wait, as I don't want my father and myuncle to take action. I want to rely on my own efforts to pursue the career and the person I like. Withthe help of others, I will always be weaker."

"It seems that you have an idea in your mind," Celeste felt relieved.

"Yes," Maria smiled, "I have thought of some methods, but I haven't put them to use yet. I don'tknow if it will work."

"Then you should be happy. Once you have an idea, it means that hope is on the horizon."

"Yes, I really am happy," Maria's laughter followed immediately, sweeping away the depression shehad before.

However, she still did not tell Celeste that Liam had feelings for her.

She knew that she couldn't bring it up.

That was because Celeste liked Gary. Since they liked each other, she didn't want to burdenCeleste by telling her Liam's feelings.

"By the way, you sounded unhappy just now.

What's the matter? Tell me, and I'll analyze it for you."

"It's nothing," Celeste tried to laugh it off, "I'm fine."

"But your voice sounds weak."

"I'm just a little tired."

"Haha," Maria's chuckle sounded ambiguous as she smirked, "Don't tell me that you and Gary havebeen going at it all night. You must be tired, right?"

Celeste's face turned red and she felt flustered. When she thought of how Maria had eavesdroppedon the conversation between her and Gary in the room, her face turned even redder.

She didn't want Maria to be worried about her, so she told a lie, "Yes, I have done it too much. I amso tired that my waist and knees are sore and weak."

"Haha, my cousin is amazing, isn't he?" Maria laughed even more slyly, "It's very joyful to have himserve you, isn't it?"

Despite Celeste's tone, she was secretly upset, "You'll experience this kind of thing in the future.Well, I'm not going to say much anymore. I'm going to hang up."

"Alright, let's stop here. Stay in touch all the time. I'll start executing my plan soon," Maria replied.

"Does it have anything to do with Liam?"

"Of course it does." "Go ahead then. I wish you success," Celeste grinned and gave her blessings.

"With your blessing, I know I'll succeed."

"Yes, you definitely will."

After hanging up the phone, Celeste sat on the edge of the bed with her phone in her hand. Then,she ruffled her hair in annoyance. Somehow, she felt sadness in her heart.

Her mind was filled with Gary's visage. She did not tell Maria that she had decided to break up withGary and that they had fallen out with each other.

Their relationship had come to an end.

She was holding on to some sort of fantasy, wasn't she?

Gary had admitted that he was with Janice, but she was still holding on to her delusion.

Celeste held her head tightly, feeling even more frustrated.

"Don't think about him anymore," She couldn't help but mutter, ordering herself not to think aboutGary anymore. She kept reminding herself of the fact.

However, his figure was still wandering in front of her eyes and straight into her mind.

Celeste was worried that he had gone to see

Janice.

She checked her phone and realized Gary didn't even give her a call. She couldn't help but feel alittle disappointed.

Where did he go?

Why was she still so worried?

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Celeste was shocked and looked at the phone with joy. However, when she saw the caller ID, thesurprise in her eyes turned into great disappointment.

It was Flynt.

Celeste was stunned. Taking a deep breath to calm down, she answered the call.

"Good morning, Flynt."

"Good morning, Celeste," Flynt's voice came from the phone as he sounded appreciative andexcited, "The documents you translated last night are perfect. I checked thoroughly and found nomistakes, including the grammar and professional terms. It's all on point. I'm very satisfied, and I willmost probably give you more documents to translate."

"It's good that there were no mistakes. Well, if you send them to my mailbox, I'll do them right awayand send them back to you. In addition, you should mark the due dates on every file for me so that Ican organize it better," Celeste said.

"Alright. Celeste, you're still so organised," Flynt complimented her.

"No, Flynt. In fact, I am more emotional when it comes to doing things," Celeste felt that she was nota particularly rational person.

"You prioritise relationships," Flynt continued, "That's amazing."

"So are you. You are also a very outstanding person who keeps striving for the best," Celeste saidsincerely.

When she said this, the door happened to open behind her.

Gary's tall figure appeared at the door with many things in his hand. His gaze was dark as helooked at the girl sitting by the bed.

There was a warm smile on her face, which was glaring to his eyes.

However, the moment he entered the door, she froze the moment she saw him.

Furthermore, she stopped smiling.

Gary's eyes were gloomy, and he was even angrier deep down. Was he a devil for her toimmediately stop smiling the second she saw him?

Was her smile only for other men?

Gary was furious, but he didn't forget what he said out of anger the night before.

He knew that he had to be rational at the moment.

He picked up a bunch of things and set them aside. After that, he went into the bathroom andwashed his hands.

Celeste held the phone and said, "Flynt, we should end the call soon. I'll be in touch if there's anyissues that pop up. I have something to do now."

"Okay, Celeste, take care."

"Take care too, Flynt."

"Oh, by the way, are you free this afternoon? Let's have lunch together," Flynt asked.

"This afternoon?" Celeste felt that she was not feeling well, so she rejected the offer, "Not today,perhaps. Let's do it tomorrow. I'll treat you tomorrow afternoon."

She should have recovered the next day, so she could go out when the time came.

"Okay, tomorrow afternoon then, but it's my treat. A gentleman should not let a girl spend her ownmoney," Flynt laughed.novelbin

"Oh, come on."

"Furthermore, you are a student. I'm earning a pretty good income, so don't worry," Flynt smiled ashe spoke.

"Alright then," Celeste didn't refuse any further.

Soon, she hung up the phone.

Celeste put her phone aside and took a deep breath. Then, she looked in the direction of thebathroom.

At this moment, the sound of running water could be heard from inside the room. Gary seemed tobe washing his hands.

She looked at the things he bought, only to find out that he'd bought breakfast and a pile of snacksand fruits.

Celeste was stunned as she realized that Gary had gone out to buy those items.

Just then, Gary walked out. His tall body seemed stifling and his expression was cold. Harshnessseemed to seep out of every pore of his body.

Celeste could not help but shudder as she hurriedly lowered her gaze.

Gary walked to the side of the bed. He stood in front of her.

As his legs came into view, Celeste's chest tightened and she didn't say a word.

Gary lowered his eyes. His eyes were terrifyingly deep as he stared at her.

The atmosphere was silent and awkward.

They hadn't spoken again after saying those words the night before.. When they slept, there was abig space in the middle of the bed between them.

They did not hug each other for the past few days.

Celeste was no longer close to Gary.

She deliberately ignored him, causing his gaze to freeze. He had gone out early in the morning tobuy breakfast and food because he was worried that she would feel hungry and that she wouldleave.

However, she was on her phone.

She had called Flynt early in the morning. Was she so reluctant to leave Flynt for even a second?

Gary's expression was contorted. However, he took a deep breath and grunted, "Take off yourclothes."

Celeste was stunned. It was almost torturous earlier as she did not know how to break the silence.

However, his first words were to ask her to take off her clothes.

In an instant, she was stunned. She looked up at him, her gaze filled with anger.

As she looked into Gary's eyes, he had no expression on his face as he added, "It's to apply yourmedication."

Celeste paused for a moment and understood what he meant.

She had thought that...

Ugh, she was jumping to conclusions once more.

She quickly lowered her head as if she was afraid that Gary would see through her thoughts. In ahurry, she told him, "I've already applied the medicine."

"You're horrible at it," Gary was frighteningly blunt.

Celeste was shocked. She looked up and refuted, "No, I'm not."

Gary looked at her in a condescending manner before saying, "What are you thinking about then? Iwill apply the cream on you thoroughly. Once you have recovered, you can leave with yourclassmates. When that happens, there is no need for me to continue applying the medication foryou."

Celeste's heart throbbed as she looked at him. He smirked with a hint of mockery on his face.

Celeste was upset but she insisted, "There's no need to. I'll be fine soon."

"I'm the one who hurt you, and I'll be responsible until you recover. In order not to delay your datetomorrow afternoon, hurry up," Gary's tone was harsh.
