Gary was in Boston, but he could arrange for his people to prepare such a house in Oxford that came with a large bed here. He was really resourceful.

In the midst of strategizing, he was able to have everything at his fingertips, even if he was thousands of miles away.

Did he have such an idea for a long time? Maybe he always wished to have her on such a large bed.

Celeste shot Gary a look of suspicion.

It seemed that she was asking him why and how he could do this.

Gary curled his lips and smiled. He looked at Celeste and did not avoid her gaze.

It was as if he was telling her with his eyes that it was exactly what he had planned all along. This bed signified the start of their life together.

Of course, he could not be perfunctory.

Only good beginnings would bring good memories.

So what if he was seen through by Celeste?

Gary looked at her and raised his eyebrows, a faint smile plastered on his face.

Celeste was helpless. She muttered, "How long have you planned this?"

"Four years," Gary said bluntly, "No more, no less. I've thought about it for a long time and finally settled on this half a year ago. The house had been bought for a year, and all the furnishings took half a year to be completed."

Celeste took a deep breath and looked at him blankly. She was really stunned.

She really did hit the nail on the head with her guess. He really had been planning this for a long time.

"Do you like the color of the bedding?" Gary hugged her just like that, seemingly still extremely energetic. He asked Celeste as he stood at the door of the bedroom and looked inside.

Celeste turned to look at the bedroom again and found that the room was very spacious. The headboard of the bed was made of leather, and it looked very soft.

There were nightstands on both sides of the bed, while the lamps on the walls and in the corners were all intricately designed. At the end of the bed was a footstool made of leather as well. The cloakroom was not in this room, and there was a large balcony with a beautiful floormat, which was also covered with soft cushions. It really looked very comfortable.

However, the owner's intentions could also be easily perceived from this room.

This room was meant to be used for sleeping.

"Gary, what's the matter with you?" Celeste whispered, feeling ashamed and embarrassed.

"What on earth do you mean?" Gary blinked and feigned ignorance, "Celeste, you're so funny. Have you been studying too much that you've start to overthink matters? How am I supposed to answer the question that you're asking?"

Celeste did not believe that he would not understand. How could someone as devious and cunning as him not understand?

"Don't play dumb," Celeste wasn't planning on playing mind games with him. She instructed, "Put me down."

Gary put her down.

Celeste walked in. There was a toilet and a bathroom in the master bedroom for the purpose of separating dry areas and wet areas.

"Oh, are you asking why I bought such a large bed?" Gary continued to tease her when he saw that Celeste had stopped talking. Celeste suddenly turned around and glared at him.

Gary's lips were curled into a smirk, "Actually, I just wanted to tell you that I wanted to make you feel more comfortable when you roll over."

"Stop talking," Celeste was even more embarrassed. She knew that the more Gary spoke, the more mischievous he was.

"Why can't I talk?" Gary snickered, "What are you thinking? I'm just saying that I want to improve your quality of sleep. Why are you blushing?"

"You!" Celeste's face and ears were crimson. Gary wanted to see her blush on purpose and wanted to render her speechless.

In the past, it was always like this on video calls. After he turned 18 years old, he joked more and more frequently. He always said suggestive things which made her feel that she could no longer look him in the eye.

Now, they were seeing each other face-to-face, and still he continued to behave like this. Did he think she didn't know his tricks?

Celeste wasn't fooled.

Gary looked at Celeste's red face and couldn't help but smile. He liked to tease her. Every time he teased her, her cheeks would be flushed and her entire face would instantly turn red. Anyone who noticed her appearance would be very tempted.

He walked over, stood behind her, and was about to speak.

As soon as Celeste turned around, she was shocked.

She covered her chest and yelled in a low voice, "Why are you so close to me?"

"Haha!" Gary could no longer hold back his laughter, "Why are you so sensitive? I just wanted to walk over and talk to you."

Celeste also felt that she seemed to be overreacting. She couldn't help but turn her face away and retorted, "It's not like I can't hear you. You don't have to lean so close to me."

"It's been four years since we last met. Don't tell me you didn't want to see me?" Gary asked as he slowly walked towards Celeste. His eyes were gleaming, and it was like a black hole that sucked her in with each gaze.

Celeste was in a daze.

She asked herself: did she want to see him?

Of course.

But she was a little embarrassed because he came so suddenly. She wasn't used to it.

Gary had once again stood in front of her and approached her naturally. Her breath was interweaving with his, and her nose was filled with his strong and overpowering scent.

Celeste held her breath and lowered her head. She could feel Gary's gaze fall on her face.

Her breathing grew slightly heavier.

"Look up at me."

Gary commanded.

Celeste followed his order and looked up.

The two of them exchanged glances.

Celeste's gaze was filled with restraint and panic. She seemed to be afraid of what would happen next.

What would happen if he came closer this time?

Celeste had no idea

Her desire and worries bloomed from within her heart and could be reflected clearly in her gaze.

Gary looked at her. He understood everything without the need for her to say anything.

Hence, he changed the subject, "This place was arranged by the employees that Uncle Logan hired. They took two weeks to clean up the place, so you don't need to clean it anymore. Do you like it?" Celeste was shocked. She didn't expect him to ask her to look at him just to ask this question.

She looked at him suspiciously. When she saw that he was calm, she relaxed slightly and nodded slightly. Of course, she liked the preparations he made, but it was just a little too extravagant. Gary relaxed when he saw that she had readily accepted the change of topic. He secretly sighed. It seemed like this girl was not ready yet.

He looked down at her and said, "I'm going to take a shower."

"Huh?"

"Do you want to join me?" A bad idea flashed into Gary's mind.

"No," Celeste immediately shook her head firmly.

Gary chuckled, "Then you can take a look around. Both my clothes and yours are in the cloakroom. I had your measurements taken, and have already bought new ones."

He walked to the room next door and opened the door. Celeste was welcomed to the cloakroom, which looked to be more than 20 square meters.

There were women's clothes, dresses, trousers, shirts, casual clothes, sweaters, overcoats, shoes and so on. It was a well-equipped and comprehensive closet. She was very surprised and gasped, "How do you know my sizes?"

Gary's gaze lingered on her body for a moment before he said, "Mom bought your clothes before. That's why I know your size. I've also asked Maria about it." "What!"

It turned out that Aunt Smith and Maria had disclosed her measurements. She nodded and said in a daze, "You should hurry and go wash up. I'll take a look around."

"Alright."

Gary brought the bathrobe with him into the washroom. The moment the door closed, Celeste immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

She tried to calm down and looked around. There was only one bedroom.
