Chapter 1535

Gary stared at Celeste blankly and a look of anticipation flashed across his eyes.

He really felt that there was a need for him to be patient with her this time. He could not get overlyanxious.

He was still not confident enough when it came to Celeste. He was not confident enough to controlhis own emotions and actions towards her.

He knew that he always lacked self-control upon facing Celeste.

As of now, after a few hard days of work, Gary finally understood that Celeste was actually a kindand self-abasing girl.

She was afraid, and yet, she still could not help but get close to him. This was why he felt that theyhad a promising future.

Celeste lowered her head. Even though she didn't look at Gary, she could sense that Gary waslooking at him. Just how long did he want to stare at her?

When she finally lost her patience, Gary spoke.

"Celeste, continue studying," Gary gently said to her, "I'm going upstairs to take a shower andchange my clothes."

"Okay." Celeste nodded as if she felt relieved. She continued to read the documents. She lookedthrough it carefully and did not waste any time at all.

Gary looked at her thoughtfully one last time before he turned around to leave.

When he stepped into Celeste's bedroom, a trace of deep remorse flashed in his eyes.

The room was clean, and her scent lingered in the room. It was sweet and clean. He blinked andtook a deep breath of air that was infused with Celeste's body fragrance.

The faint fragrance poured into his heart, and it felt bittersweet.

He thought of himself taking care of Celeste for over a week in the past.

Back then, Celeste laid on the bed. The two of them were very quiet. They did not even speak toeach other.

Now that he came back, Celeste could at least get along with him quietly, which meant that he mustnot have screwed it up completely.

Upon opening his eyes, Gary got himself together and made a phone call.

"Send me a few sets of clothes. I'll send you the measurements. Yes, clothes for both men andwomen. Also, send us some food. I will send you the address and requirements later."

He quickly hung up the phone and sent the message. After that, he went into the bathroom.

Half an hour later, he was done washing up. Just as he was about to take the bath towel, hesuddenly thought that Celeste needed to use it, and there was only a singular towel in thebathroom.

It seemed that Celeste had put his set away.

He walked out to the cloakroom to look for his clothes.

However, after opening it, he found that his clothes were gone. He was stunned and quickly lookedthrough everything in the closet. But he only found a pair of pants, which were even wrapped insidea quilt.

Where did his clothes go?

After he put on his pants, Gary went downstairs to look for Celeste.

He reached the door of the study room and knocked on the door.

Celeste raised her head and immediately blushed when she saw Gary.

He was not wearing any clothes and was only wearing a pair of trousers. There was even waterdripping from his body. His hair was wet, which stuck to his forehead. The weather was so cold, buthe was only wearing that.

Celeste immediately stood up and looked at him. She said unhappily, "Did you come down just likethis? What if you catch a cold? Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"

Gary smiled and said innocently, "I couldn't find my clothes anywhere."

Celeste was stunned and suddenly thought of something. Her face turned red from embarrassment.

"Celeste, did you throw all my clothes away?" Gary asked with a smile.

His handsome face had been washed in the bathroom for almost half an hour. When he came out,his face was a little bit red. When he looked at Celeste, there was a red flush on his face.

Celeste told him, "I didn't."

Actually, she wanted to throw Gary's clothes away. However, after thinking over it for a long time,she still felt that she shouldn't.

"Then, where are my clothes? I couldn't find them. I searched the entire room, but I couldn't find anyclothes," Gary said innocently, "I thought you hated me so much that you threw my clothes away."

"No," Celeste walked over quickly and said in a low voice, "I've put it away for you. I'll go upstairs tofind it for you now."

She walked over as she spoke.

When her eyes gazed at him, she quickly looked away. His muscles made Celeste's heart tighten.She dared not look at him.

Gary stood at the door. He did not dodge aside at all.

As Celeste got closer, she lowered her head and said quickly, "I've folded them and put them away.I thought you wouldn't come again, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon. Come on, let's goupstairs. Don't catch a cold."

As she spoke, she wanted to squeeze through the small crack between his body and the door.

Gary stood by the door. When the two of them brushed past each other, Celeste caught a whiff ofthe faint fragrance on Gary's body as it rushed into her nose. She kept her head low and her entirebody was tense. Her face was all red.

Gary lowered his head and looked at her. His eyes were pitch-black as he smiled faintly. His gazewas very dark.

Celeste's face was very warm. Fortunately, the lights outside were not turned on. When she left thestudy room, the lights were rather dim, and neither of them could see anything clearly.

But what kind of a man was Gary?

He would never miss a chance to tease her when she was feeling embarrassed.novelbin

"Haha." He laughed in a low voice and joked, "Celeste, don't you have the courage to look at me?"

Celeste turned her back to him and did not want to say anything. She was embarrassed andashamed.

Gary followed her from behind. Only her ears and neck were exposed. They were completely red,and he laughed even more proudly.

Celeste felt so tense that she did not even look back. She went upstairs indifferently and ignoredGary.

In the cloakroom, she pulled out a large box of clothes, retrieved a large coat and then handed it tohim.

She still did not look at him. She just threw it at him.

Gary took it over and complained, "Celeste, I can't just wear a single coat, can I? And this pair ofpants, there's nothing inside too. I need the clothes inside, but you've already cleaned them up forme. Find them for me."

Celeste looked for his clothes for him and took it all out.

Those clothes were folded neatly. He could tell that she had folded them very nicely.

Gary's eyes darkened. He looked at Celeste and could feel that she actually cared about him a lot.

He could feel just how thoughtful she was.

Celeste found the clothes inside for him. When she handed it to him, her little face was as red asblood, and she looked very embarrassed.

He was thrilled at the sight of such a scene.

He took the clothes from her hands, smiled, and asked, "I can't change in front of you now, can I?"

Celeste trembled. She felt a little annoyed.

She gave Gary a long sleeved T-shirt.

"That's better. I'll put on my clothes first," Gary said.

Celeste was a little embarrassed and annoyed. She turned around and glared at him, only to seehis strong abdominal muscles.

All at once, her face turned even redder than it already was before.

Gary looked at her for a few seconds before he said, "Wait a minute."

Celeste turned back and asked coldly, "What more

do you want?"

He said, "Go take a shower. I forgot to tell you that I have prepared your bath water. The water isstill hot, so you can take a bath immediately."

When he took a shower just now, he also cleaned the bathroom and prepared some hot bath waterfor her to take a warm bath.

In this way, she could eliminate the cold fatigue in her body.

But when Celeste heard this, it sounded like a special invitation. She immediately frowned and said,"Gary, what are you doing? I told you, I am not going to do anything with you."

Celeste spoke righteously.

Gary's eyes widened as well. He was a little surprised. He blinked innocently and looked at her."Celeste, I just wanted you to take a shower. Did you think of something else?"

Celeste was greatly embarrassed. She glared at him angrily and retorted, "Don't tell me that youdon't have those thoughts at all."

In her opinion, he did it on purpose. He was planning his steps one at a time to make her fall into histrap.

Celeste was so angry, anxious and embarrassed that even her eyes turned red. He was greatlyamused and speechless.

He looked into Celeste's eyes seriously. "Well, I admit that I do have those thoughts, but it hasnothing to do with me asking you to take a shower. I just prepared bath water for you so that youcould take a shower earlier. If you take a shower too late, you'll sleep poorly. You didn't sleep welllast night. Did you forget?"
