True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)

Chapter 1987

"Don't you want to travel with me at all?" Gary looked at Celeste with hope in his eyes.

Celeste did not look up at him, she only said softly, "I do want to travel with you, it's just that I don't think it's the right time to do that now."

Celeste felt that the answer she gave him was a very calm and rational one.

She did not hear Gary's responding for a long time after she finished speaking.

Then, she involuntarily raised her eyes.

Only then did she notice Gary staring at her hard, with a sense of doubt and sharpness in his eyes.

"Also, Aunt Smith is already in the middle to late stage of her pregnancy now. Aren't we here to accompany her through the Spring Festival? I think it

is better if we don't go out. Don't you think so?" Celeste acted as if she did not see Gary's stare. Her calm eyes met Gary's sharp gaze.

"That's true." Gary could only force a smile.

It seemed that his wish of having an unforgettable breakup vacation with Celeste could not be fulfilled either.

He lowered his head slightly, and his thick and dense eyelashes trembled. The look on his handsome face was so lonely.

His hands clenched tightly into fists. A loud crack came from his joints, and it made Celeste feel a little sorry.

Celeste's big, round eyes flickered, and a trace of pain and sadness that could not be suppressed could be seen from her pupils.

She looked away, and the rims of her eyes somehow turned red.

It seemed like he was ready to break up with her.

She was very sad.

It was a break up.

Ever since they got back together, Celeste had never thought about breaking up with Gary again.

However, at that moment, she had a premonition that the relationship between her and Gary was at its end.

Just the thought of it alone made her feel very upset, and she couldn't bring herself to part with him.

However, if Janice was really pregnant and something like that really happened between the two of them, Celeste did not think that she would be able to bear it.

"Well then, I will go upstairs first."

Gary suddenly said. After that, he never mentioned the trip again. He turned around and went upstairs.

Celeste watched in a daze as his back slowly disappeared from the stairs. His lonely back gradually covered her heart like a shadow.

At that moment, she actually received a message on her phone.

Celeste lowered her head and saw that it was from a strange number, and it was not from a local number.

The moment Celeste saw the message, she knew who it was from.

It said, "Celeste, I guess Gary didn't tell you that he wants to break up with you, did he? How about I tell you then? You must really want to know the results, right? Let me tell you, I am really pregnant. The DNA test results also confirms that I am pregnant with his child. He is well aware of all this, and he agreed to break up with you in two months. He didn't want his mother to be sad during these times. Of course, he did that for you too. Celeste, I think you should leave on your own accord if you know what's good for you."

When Celeste saw that message, she pursed her lips.

Janice had always been arrogant and had always acted blatantly in front of her.

She thought of the previous encounters she happened to have with her before, and Janice had always been so active and lively. Celeste, however, was an introvert, and she was silent.

Celeste could not help but to feel sad.

The child belonged to Gary. That meant that something really did happen between them.

Celeste pursed her lips harder, and her teeth sank deep into her lip, making it bleed.

A salty and bitter taste spread out in her mouth, it felt and tasted uncomfortable.

She had a wry smile on her face and ignored that message.

Who knew that she would call instead.

She knew that Janice would still get to her even if she changed her number. She had used Lowell's phone before to make the call, so she had her number.

She called right away.

Celeste looked at the direction of the stairs, pondered for a moment, and then answered the call.

Janice's voice could be heard from the other end. "Celeste?"

"It's me." Her tone was calm and still.

"I did not expect you to answer my call." Janice thought that Celeste would not answer the call. "This means that you have already read the message I sent, haven't you?"

"I have," Celeste continued to speak in a faint tone. She did not hide anything from her.

"What do you think?" Janice asked again, a sense of pride that couldn't be concealed could be heard in her words.

"I don't have any thoughts about it." Celeste took a deep breath, she felt very sad, but she would not let Janice know about that.

"Haha, you don't have to feel too sad." Janice smiled. "I have already told you long ago that someone like Gary is not suitable for you."

"Miss Simpson, you seem quite confident. As if, if he is not suitable for me, then he must be for you," Celeste retorted faintly. Even though her tone was not heavy, her words were.

Janice was also stunned for a while before she said, "Of course I am more suitable for him than you are. Didn't we talk about it last time? Back then, I told you that he is not right for you, but you refused to believe me and you were stubborn about it. How do you feel about it now?" "Miss Simpson, I don't understand," Celeste said lightly, "Since you think you are the winner, then why do you still need to call me, the loser, to show off?"NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

"It was a hard-earned win, of course I have to show off. Otherwise, how I can let people know about the joy in my heart?" Janice said in a deep voice.

"I don't think you have won, though." Celeste did not quarrel with her, she only retorted lightly. Her tone and words made Janice feel a little agitated. "What did you say? I haven't won?"

"That's right." Celeste confirmed that without hesitation, "If you really have won, there is no need for you to rush towards me and show off to me right away. Yet, you have called me so soon to say these things to me. I think that you are too impatient, Miss Simpson."

Janice was stunned by Celeste's words.

"Some things can't be achieved just

because you try to speed it up. You might get the opposite of the desired results." Celeste sighed, "For example, fate I have always believed that fate is what decides whether some things will happen if it's fated, it will happen no matter what. If it's not, then you won't get it no matter what. You can try every trick in the book, but it may all just go in vain." "Don't you understand, Celeste? I have Gary's child, and it has been verified. If you don't believe me, you can question him. Of course, with my understanding of him, I don't think he'll tell you the truth. How about you go ask Lowell? Besides, Lowell will definitely not lie. He knows about this matter too."

When Celeste heard that, she pursed her lips and she tried to conceal her expressions. She sighed softly.

"I don't want to know anything about your affairs. Janice, the reason you are calling me is to ask me to take the initiative to leave Gary, right?" Janice frowned. "Yeah, so what?"

"Then I really am sorry to tell you this, I won't leave Gary. At least, I won't take the initiative to do that," Celeste told Janice that in a calm tone.

Janice almost jumped up from anger. "Celeste, don't you care that he is already with me? He has even promised to be my boyfriend. Do you not care about all these?"

"I care." Celeste admitted frankly, "In fact, I care about it very much."

"Then why haven't you left him?" Janice frowned.

"If I leave him, wouldn't that make you happy?" Celeste asked faintly, "Why should I make you happy?"

Janice was stunned.

Perhaps even she did not expect Celeste to ask her that in such a plain tone, even more so that she was left speechless by Celeste's words. It hit her right at all the points.

"Gary's relationship with me is our

business, from where it starts to

when it ends. It is not something that you can call the shots for, Miss

Simpson." Celeste's tone was neither humble nor pushy, it was filled with confidence. "You have already exposed your intentions

by

calling me so abruptly and. impatiently. You have yet to completely control Gary, and he is not someone who you can control so easily. Even if he did promise you something, I think he just feels sorry to me and thinks that he has no choice but to break up with me, right?"

"Hiss!" Janice gasped. "Just who do you think you are, Celeste?"

"I am not saying that I'm someone great, I am just the woman your dream guy is deeply in love with," Celeste said, "I think that even if you can win Gary over, I will be a shadow in his heart that lingers, and I will always be between the two of you. I will still be in every part of both of your lives, and this will go on even after I leave."

Janice was so angry suddenly and she clenched her fists. She held back her anger and clenched on to her phone hard.

She realized that Celeste she thought she knew was actually not that simple or easy to deal with.

Celeste used to be an easy target to bully, and she did not expect her to be such a tough opponent then.

"Celeste, you're really proud of this." Janice sneered.

"Not really, I did feel a little uncomfortable and sad initially. However, Miss Simpson, since you are so eager to call me and want to show off, I can tell that you are not happy. You must have used some sort of methods to force Gary to break up with me, even if it will take him one or two months. You must have threatened him with something.

I know that a breakup is inevitable, but I am not so sad anymore. I know that even if something happened between you two, he is not the one who took the initiative for that."

"You... do you not care about it?" Janice shouted, "Don't forget, he betrayed you."

"At that time, we broke up. So, how could you say he betrayed me?" Celeste asked faintly.

"Tell me the truth, do you really not mind this?" Janice asked incredulously.

Celeste said calmly, "I do mind, but I can still think clearly too. I know what you are thinking, but I have to say, you were too impatient. The more you

want me to leave voluntarily, the more I won't do that."

"Celeste, you really are shameless." Janice cursed in anger.

"No." Celeste was still not angry. On the contrary, she was very calm, and she was so calm that it was terrifying. She said in a unhurried tone, "I am

not the shameless one. Janice, you are."

"You!" Janice growled angrily.

"Miss Simpson, you are one of the

most shameless people I have ever seen. You're as thick-skinned as a wall." Celeste did not hesitate and directly retorted. "You knew that he doesn't belong to you, but you still

tried to steal him from me. I am

afraid that I don't have the obligation to please you, Miss Simpson. Plus, I grew up abroad. I don't have the same value towards integrity a local person would have. You seemed to have forgotten about that."
