Female Novel
Chapter 1432
Being struck by her sudden retort accompanied by Flynt's warning, Gary's anger flared.
He could no longer take it. Before he was about to explode, he pulled the car to the side of the roadand suddenly stopped before he turned to look at Celeste.
Celeste was confused by his actions. She couldn't help but ask, "Why did you stop all of a sudden?"
At this moment, his handsome face was filled with harsh emotion. His unblinking gaze was sharp ashe swept it over her.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Why did you stop?" Celeste leveled a puzzled gaze at him.
Gary fixed his gaze at her the entire time, stern. He looked like a husband who had caught his wifehaving an affair.
Celeste didn't know what she had done to provoke Gary, but his behavior made her irritable.
"What? Did I say something to upset you?" Celeste looked at him, still puzzled. "Or do you thinkyou've suffered a grievance?" "There's nothing between Janice and me," Gary said seriously.
"I know." Celeste nodded. "There's nothing between Flynt and me too. What I'm trying to say is youknow how I feel now, do you?"
"Celeste, are you trying to get back at me and p*ss me off on purpose?" Gary asked in a serioustone. "How would you know what Flynt is thinking?"
Celeste frowned slightly. Flynt's appearance was a coincidence. She really didn't know he wasthere, nor had she ever taken the initiative to contact him.
However, he must have said something to Gary just now to make him so mad.
Were they just going to argue in the car?
"I'm not." Celeste shook her head and said in a serious tone, "I don't have the time to annoy you onpurpose. Flynt must have said something to make you so angry. What did you guys talk about?"
Gary's sharp gaze fell on her face for a few seconds, and Celeste felt rather inexplicable.
Feeling uneasy, she said, "It's not only because of Flynt, isn't it? You're angry because Janice didn'tcome with us."
"What does this have to do with Janice?" "Then tell me, why are you suddenly so mad?"
Celeste retorted; she couldn't help but raise her voice.
"You think I'm mad?" He frowned, asking seriously.
His tone was so cold that it could kill.
"Your anger is killing me. I need some fresh air. You should take the time to cool off. I don't want toargue."
She was about to get off the car, but before she could put her hand on the handle, Gary grabbedher wrist to stop her from getting off.
Before she could react, he pulled her over. He leaned in and scolded, "Do you know I'm pissed?"
"Even a blind man can tell," She said bluntly.
"Then why won't you comfort me?" Gary said matter-of-factly.
"Comfort you?" Celeste was really confused by his words and angrily asked, "Mister, what are you?Three?"
"You don't love me at all." His tone remained steadfastly childish.
The accusation was completely unreasonable.
Thus, Celeste was speechless.
"Gary, why are you acting like this?" Celeste was exasperated. "Don't you think you're beingchildish? You're asking me to comfort you?"
They were in the car on the side of the road, yet he was treating her like this.
"Can't you? Is your good side only for Flynt?"novelbin
Celeste was rendered even more speechless by his childish attitude. She pushed him away andsaid, "Gary, you're missing something here, aren't you?"
Gary's eyes turned cold as he looked at her. He frowned slightly and asked, "What?"
"Janice likes you," Celeste said harshly. "I don't know if you are playing dumb or you really haven'tfigured it out. With your intelligence, you should be able to see it. She likes you to the point of usingany means to get you. She even told me she would never stop loving you. She won't give up justbecause we've publicized our relationship."
Gary was shocked.
"Judging from your expression, Flynt must have figured it out as well." Celeste sighed and laughedself-deprecatingly. "Everyone can see how much Janice likes you. What Flynt said to you just nowmust have something to do with her."
"Flynt likes you too." Gary was shocked by Celeste's words. A hint of shame and annoyanceflashed across his eyes, and he even told Celeste Flynt liked her.
After a moment of dumbstruck, Celeste laughed.
"You're making a fuss because Flynt likes me?"
Gary didn't say another word.
Hence, Celeste also fell silent.
After some time, Celeste said, "Are you going to leave or not? Are we just going to stay here andargue?"
Gary froze for a moment before finally starting the engine.
However, on the way back, the atmosphere between them became strange after Flynt spoke toGary.
Finally, Celeste took the initiative to speak to him when they took a break from driving. "Let's talk."
"What is it?"
"Be reasonable." She looked at Gary seriously. "I don't want our relationship to become as strainedas before."
Gary understood what she meant.
They almost broke up that time, and their current awkwardness naturally made things hard.
However, Gary did not reply. Celeste's heart thumped, and she felt a little annoyed. She pursed herlips and said seriously, "I hope we'll be fine. I don't want unnecessary misunderstandings to pull usapart."
Still, Gary remained silent.
Celeste's gaze shifted downwards.
The overly quiet atmosphere made her feel a little uncomfortable. Celeste looked up and sawGary's cold expression. His brows furrowed tightly, and Celeste's shoulders slumped helplessly.Gary was mad again.
His expression was tense, and his lips were tightly pursed. He was obviously livid.
"In the future, I will keep my distance from Flynt, and of course, I will have no other contact withhim." Celeste said, "I'm in Oxford, and he's in Edinburgh. In fact, I haven't seen him for two yearsbefore today. If you have any doubts, I'll do whatever you want to make you happy."
Gary was taken aback upon hearing Celeste's words.
It seemed that he didn't expect her to be so decisive.
He nodded and said, "That's more like it. As for Janice, I'll ignore her. Don't worry."
"So, can we stop the silent treatment now?"
"It would've all been fine if you comforted me earlier." He grumbled.
Seeing his anger and jealousy, Celeste couldn't help but smile. She really had no idea what he wasthinking. This man was rather irritating at times.
"Aren't men supposed to spoil women?" Celeste mumbled, "I looked for a boyfriend to spoil me, notfor me to spoil him. How old do you think you are?"
"We'll spoil each other." He pulled her over and held her in his arms. His captivating voice rang inher ear. "I'm incredibly pissed."
"What are you angry about?"
"Flynt likes you."
"Janice even declared she wouldn't give up on you that day." Celeste said, "She even said thewaterfront pavilion gets the moonlight first. She'll continue to pester you after you go back toBoston."
"What?" Gary frowned and lowered his head to look at Celeste. "She meant it?"
"It's up to you whether to believe it or not." Celeste sighed, "You didn't believe me when I told youthat day. You still don't believe me when I'm telling you now. What can I do to make you believe?"
"I believe you." He held her hand. "She can f*ck off. She'll never have the chance to come close tome again."
"At the end of the day, both of you are in Boston." Celeste was still a little worried. She let out a longsigh before saying softly, "Gary, I really feel lucky to have you, but losing you would be my fate."
"I am yours forever," He said with firmness in his tone.
She looked at his earnest expression and laughed.
"You sure are easy to coax." He pinched Celeste's cheeks playfully.
"Of course." Celeste stuck out her tongue in reply.
He narrowed his eyes and whispered in her ear, "What should I do now? I'm really turned on."
"Gary Smith!" She blushed and said coyly, "Don't."
He also smiled, and his eyes were filled with deep affection.
The tense atmosphere suddenly became more relaxed.
At that moment, Gary had a faint smile on his face, and it was mirrored on Celeste's face as well.
It was much more comfortable when they didn't quarrel.
