"Celeste, you are so bold to come to the airport on your own. Where are Maria and Ernest? Didn't they accompany you here?"

"No, they don't know about it either," Celeste shook her head and told him honestly, "I wasn't plan on coming here in the first place."

Her slender wrist was still in Gary's grasp. His hands were very huge, and his strength was also very great. He had no intention of letting her go. The taxi was still waiting, so Celeste had to close the door and let the driver leave first.

"I thought you came to the airport to pick me up because you predicted that I would come to London," Gary complained, "Then what are you doing here?"

"No, I came to the airport to meet Liam," Celeste told him frankly, "I didn't expect you to be here."

Upon hearing that the person she met was Liam, Gary frowned. That name had not been mentioned in the last four years.

However, he had met with Liam several times.

Why would Celeste meet up with Liam in private?

"Why did you meet him?" Gary's tone was very cold, "What's there to meet for? Couldn't you tell him anything he needed on the phone?"

"Oh, he apologized to me. It was about the thing that happened four years ago. He misunderstood me," Celeste explained, "I didn't want to see him. It was the first time I saw him in four years and we only spoke a few words. I know how to keep my boundaries."

Hearing that they had met for the first time in four years and seeing that she was afraid of being misunderstood, Gary felt relieved.

He slowly calmed himself down. Then, he looked at Celeste's red cheeks.

It was very attractive.

Meanwhile, Celeste was confused as to why he was looking at her.

"How long will you be here?" Celeste looked at him and frowned, asking, "Didn't you say that I wouldn't be allowed to go to Boston even if you didn't come to London? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"I want you," He looked at her, and his eyes were gleaming. He suddenly declared, "You're in your twenties. It's about time."

What the hell!

Almost immediately, Celeste blushed furiously.

"Yo-you." She stammered.

Gary was so extreme. He was either extremely vague or the other way round, catching people off guard and making them embarrassed.

Then, Gary held Celeste in his arms. He whispered in Celeste's ear in a low and hoarse voice, "I have waited for this day for a long time. Celeste, not everyone can endure it. Do you know how hard it is for me to wait?"

Celeste's head was pounding, and every word was like a thunderclap in her ear.

"Don't say it," She stopped him quickly.

It was not suitable for him to say something like this in a crowded airport.

"Alright, let's go back. Let's go back to your room and talk," Gary wrapped his arms around Celeste.

Celeste was very embarrassed, especially when he held her in his arms. He was simply halfhugging her.

She struggled to shake off his arm, but he was so strong that she couldn't pull it off at all.

"Don't move."

Gary couldn't take it anymore now that she was moving around in his embrace. Moving around like this made him very uncomfortable.

Celeste seemed to have felt the tension in Gary's tone. She was so scared that she froze. Hence, she could only raise her eyes to look at Gary.

Gary lowered his head and looked at her. The two of them exchanged glances.

Celeste's blushing face and her bashful look made her even more embarrassed. Her heart was threatening to leap out of her chest.

However, Gary seemed oblivious and continued teasing her. "Celeste, the UK is famous for their enthusiastic yet courteous gentlemen. Since you have been abroad for four years, have you been influenced by them?"

Celeste pouted, "No, if I was influenced, you would be the first one to stop me, wouldn't you?"

"Haha, of course," Gary was proud and controlling, "You're mine. You can only show me your enthusiasm but not to anyone else, including girls."

She was speechless.

Gary was so petty.

Celeste looked at the large hand around her waist and felt uneasy. Was he going to have his hands on her like this the whole time?

"Should we hail a ride back, or will there be someone from home picking us up?"

"Someone will pick us up," Gary said. When he looked up, he saw their car and pointed, "Our driver is here. Let's go."

As expected, a car stopped in front of them. The door opened and Alex appeared in front of them.

"Mr. Gary, it's been a long time since I've seen you. You've changed a lot in these four years," Alex greeted him with a smile.

"Uncle Logan, you haven't changed either. You seem to be aging backwards," Gary joked with Alex cheekily.

"I'm old, and I have grey hair already," Alex sighed.

When he saw Gary and Celeste so close together, he was very surprised.

Alex found it odd. Why did Gary hold Celeste so intimately? However, he was an experienced man, and he got used to it quickly.

On the other hand, Celeste was frightened by Alex.

She knew that Alex was one of Heinz's trusted assistants. Hence, he was now in charge of the businesses in Europe and spent most of his time here. She was afraid that he would tell Heinz about her intimacy with Gary.

With that, Celeste quickly struggled to break free from Gary.

Upon noticing her shyness, Gary let go of her and turned around to grab his luggage.

"Uncle Logan, this is my luggage. Please send it directly to the suite I just bought."

"Alright, Mr. Gary. We've prepared everything as you instructed," Alex replied.

"You bought a house?" Celeste was once again surprised as she asked Gary in a low tone.

"That's right."

After they retrieved their luggage, the car drove to a private residential area in Oxford and towards a small villa.

There was a garage on the first and second floor.

Alex parked the car outside. When the door was opened, she saw a shining red sports car inside, which looked quite feminine.

"Mr. Gary, as you requested, everything has been prepared."

"Thank you, Uncle Logan," Gary thanked Alex.

The driver helped to carry the luggage in. A while later, Alex left with the driver.

Celeste was very surprised when she saw this unfamiliar place. She asked, "Did you buy this place?"

"I bought it for you," Gary smirked, "From now on, you can stay here."

"I just graduated," Celeste stood in the living room while looking at the decorations. They were all brand new, simple, and were in a neutral black-and-white style. It was everything that she liked. However, she didn't tell Gary that she wanted to continue studying. Could it be that he had guessed correctly?

"So what if you have graduated?" Gary asked with a smile.

"I don't need to live here," Celeste told him.

"You shall live here when you do your postgraduate studies," Gary stared at Celeste's small face and explained, "The area is crowded with people, and the house is small and safe. It's suitable for you to live here. After school, you can come back here."
