True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 1363
Maria instantly felt guilty and impatient after being exposed.
She couldn't help but think of Liam.
She thought about the fact that she came to study in the UK for the sake of her love for Liam. She abandoned her entire family to come to London. She had been secretly in love with him, but what could she do?
Four years had passed, but nothing changed.
She felt a heaviness in her chest, which was painful and suffocating. It was as if someone had dropped a stone on her chest, preventing her from breathing properly.
Maria wanted to admit it, but she didn't have the right to.
Liam couldn't even remember what her last name was.
All of this was just her wishful thinking. Having a crush on an idol was a sad and depressing thing in the first place.
Now, she was slightly calmer. Although the sharp pain was still there, she believed that the pain would make her stronger.
She couldn't bow down so easily.
After a slight pause, Maria immediately smiled, "Gary, your imagination is wild, but please don't think too much. We're going downstairs, and Ernest is there as well. It's time to go, Celeste."
After saying that, Maria grabbed Celeste's arm and walked out first.
Behind them, Gary narrowed his eyes and looked at them. He did not stop them from leaving.
When they went downstairs together, the butler immediately asked someone to bring them some fruits and snacks.
Maria went downstairs while holding onto Celeste's arm and saw that Ernest was still meditating. He must have heard the footsteps, but he chose to ignore them and play dumb. She couldn't help but shout at him.
"Wake up, Ernest."
As soon as Maria shouted, Ernest opened his eyes.
Behind him, Gary let out a soft laugh and chimed in, "Yes, it's time for Ernest to wake up. Meditating is good, but it's for the elderly. Am I right, Maria?"
Maria turned around to look at Gary. She curled her lips and said, "Gary, I wonder who came back with a stormy face around two days ago, and has been treating everyone angrily as though we all owed him several hundred bucks. It's so surprising that he suddenly changed his mind this afternoon."
Gary didn't take her seriously and sat down on the sofa.
Celeste couldn't help but laugh. It seemed like Gary hadn't been happy at all for the past two days. Apparently, he'd been so straight-laced and downcast that everyone noticed.
She stole a glance at Gary. Coincidentally, he was also looking at her.
Their gazes met in midair.
Celeste immediately withdrew her gaze with a smile on her lips.
"Why are you suddenly happy?" Maria looked at Gary.
Gary also turned to look at Maria and shot back, "Who are you talking about?"
"Haha!"
Maria couldn't help but laugh.
Celeste was also stunned. It was amazing that this man could act as if he didn't understand anything.
Ernest didn't say anything, nor did he continue to meditate. He just looked at Celeste and then at Gary. His face was calm as he listened silently to their conversation.
"Gary, if it wasn't you, who could it be?" Maria knew that Gary wouldn't admit it. She intentionally teased him, "I think we found that you came home with a glum expression? We haven't met for so many years, yet you choose to be so mean the moment you return? You're horrible!"
Gary refused to entertain her.
"Am I right?" Maria looked at Celeste and used the topic to drag her into the conversation.
Celeste tilted her head and smiled, but didn't answer her either.
Meanwhile, Gary raised his eyebrows and glanced at Maria. His intention was obvious. Celeste would not say anything about it.
"Celeste, why won't you say anything?" Maria asked deliberately.
"Me?" Celeste chuckled. Looking at Maria's mischievous appearance, it was obvious that she had done it on purpose. She felt helpless and shrugged, "I didn't see his depressed face, so I can't express my opinion."
Maria wrinkled her nose and looked at Ernest in an attempt to rope him in as well, "Ernest, do you have anything to say?"
"I have nothing to say," Ernest spread out his hands and sat on the sofa lazily, "But you talk too much. Don't you get tired?"
"I don't," Maria shook her head and explained, "If none of us take the initiative to talk, wouldn't our gathering be overly silent?" Gary raised his eyebrows but did not say anything.
Similarly, Ernest shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't care.
Maria rolled her eyes at the twins, "See, you two are so boring. I'm going to chat with Celeste. You two can sit here."
After that, Maria pulled Celeste and stood up, "Let's go, Celeste. Let's go upstairs and chat."
Gary frowned, "Didn't you say that the four of us should be together? Where do you think you're going?"
"You can talk to Ernest," Maria pointed at Ernest, "I'll borrow Celeste for half an hour."
No matter what Gary thought, Maria still dragged Celeste away.
As soon as she returned to her room, she asked Celeste to sit down. Her eyes were looking at Celeste with suspicion, seemingly a hundred questions weighing on her mind.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Even
Celeste felt a little embarrassed by the intense gaze in her eyes.
"You did it with Gary already, didn't you?" Maria was straightforward. She blinked rapidly, her tone filled with curiosity.
Celeste's face turned red in an instant. Of course, she denied it, "Wh- why do you ask me about everything?"
"Tell me. I'm curious," Maria was expectant.
Her eyes were fixed on Celeste's face. Celeste had changed, and she had become very euphemistic. Her whole body exuded a temperament that belonged to a woman, which was very dazzling and beautiful. Celeste looked up at her and pursed her lips, mumbling, "It's hard to say. I'm embarrassed to tell you."
"Then I can ask you and you can just shake or nod your head."
"Alright," Celeste eventually nodded.
"Have you kissed Gary?" Maria asked.
Celeste's face turned red again as she blushed. She felt both embarrassed and happy. She hesitated for a while and then nodded.
"Wow, you guys are impatient," Although Maria felt that this was what Gary would do, she did not expect him to be so anxious. The moment he arrived, he announced his claim over Celeste.
Celeste grew even more flustered. She blushed and lowered her head, looking quite happy.
When she lowered her head, her hair hung down to expose her slender neck. There was a clear red mark on it.
"Oh my god!" Maria saw it and jumped up instantaneously. She widened her eyes and reached out to grab Celeste's shoulder. She took one look at Celeste's neck and gasped, "H- he kissed your neck? That's a hickey, isn't it!"
Celeste was as red as a tomato. She didn't admit it or deny it.
Her silence told Maria everything.
Maria once again looked at her, blinking her eyes in astonishment and disbelief. Then, she dropped the bomb, "Celeste, tell me, did he go all the way with you?"
