Celeste saw that he was serious. It did not look like he was teasing or joking with her.

She stopped talking and turned away. Gary then grabbed her by the wrist.

Celeste twisted her wrist and struggled, but Gary exerted slightly more strength.

That strength was strong enough to keep her from breaking free.

She could only turn around angrily and glare at him. She spoke in a low voice, "Let go of me. Stop pulling me. I'm not taking a bath." Gary pursed his lips and explained seriously, "Celeste, I really don't mean anything else. I just want you to take a bath, that's all."

Looking at Celeste's blushing face, Gary said, "I really didn't think about doing anything to you tonight. Besides, I just flushed out my desires in the bathroom. You really don't have to worry about anything."

Swish!

To Celeste, it felt like something exploded in her mind.

Her face suddenly turned completely red, as if it was bleeding

She was embarrassed and angry at him for having the guts to tell her this, but Gary did not find it embarrassing at all. He sighed and continued, "I don't have any other choice. I know you wouldn't agree to it, so I took matters to my own hands."

When he finished saying that and saw Celeste's red, blushing face. He probably realized something and continued, "Alright, I feel awkward and embarrassed too. But you have to understand that I could not hold back my feelings for you just now. I was too impulsive. I was afraid that I would do something to you, so I decided to do it myself.

"Don't laugh at me, and don't think I'm unreasonable too. This is a normal reaction for any man, I don't want to hide it from you."

Celeste was surprised at how frank he was.

She pursed her lips. She was indeed a little shocked.

He was a proud man. Having him admit to that must have been very difficult for him, right?

She did not struggle any longer. She only felt a trace of panic in her heart.

"Celeste, I really want to tell you that you are not in any danger. It will be more comfortable for you to take a bath. Look at your hands. They're so cold.

I'm just worried that you'll feel cold." As he spoke, his hand slipped down from Celeste's wrist and he held her small hand.

It was indeed very cold.

Celeste felt muddleheaded as she was pushed into the bathroom by Gary. It was only when she was soaked in the bathtub that she realized that she had come in without taking a new set of clothes. Fur re, she had even soaked herself in the bathroom. What should she do?

She looked around and found that there was an unused towel neatly folded on the hanger.

She thought that he must have left it there on purpose.

She was a little touched by his thoughtfulness.

She thought of what Gary had told her just now and felt extremely uncomfortable. After that, when she thought of what Gary had done in the bathroom, her face turned hot.

In truth, there were too many sweet memories here as well. Celeste did not want to think of it, for she felt sad and scared. She was sad and helpless.

After Gary changed his clothes, he did not go downstairs. Instead, he looked for some clothes for Celeste in the cloakroom thoroughly, inside and out, then folded them neatly before placing them at the bedside for Celeste.

He leaned on the bed and sat down lazily. There was an evil smile on his face.

He thought that even if he did nothing but walk about in front of Celeste, she would overthink by miles. With that, he could just go with the flow.

It seemed that the day he could conquer Celeste's heart was getting closer.

In conclusion, it seemed that their current situation was getting better and better.

After Celeste took a shower, she wrapped herself in a bath towel at the door and stood at the door to listen for a while. There were no movements outside. She wrapped herself tightly, took a deep breath and opened the door.

"Are you done?" Gary's voice could be heard.

In an instant, Celeste was dumbfounded.

She saw the man lying on the bed and staring at her. When he saw her bare legs and smooth shoulders, his eyes instantly surged.

Celeste's eyes widened. "Why are you here?"

"I was helping you look for your clothes. It's all here." Gary hurriedly got up from the bed and cleared his throat. He said awkwardly, "I realized that I forgot to bring you any clothes after you went in for a bath. I thought you would say something when you were done, but you didn't. Since you are here, and your clothes are all here, you can change. I'll leave the room."

After that, he turned around and walked out of the room instead of staying.

This was the first time he left on his own volition.

Celeste was so embarrassed that she quickly wiped herself down and prepared to change her clothes.

Who knew that the door opened again, and Gary's gaze was on Celeste.

What he saw was a back as beautiful as a piece of porcelain.

Gary walked in and said, "About that, I forgot to tell you something."

When Celeste saw him entering, she was so scared that she hurriedly went to get her bath towel, but she was too nervous to get it. She stared at him with a delicate and charming face. "Didn't you leave? Why are you back?"

Gary thought to himself, "If I didn't come back, how could I see such a beautiful scene?"

However, he didn't say anything. He quickly walked towards Celeste, hugged her from behind, and said, "Celeste, I'm a little impulsive. What should I do?"

"Get out," Celeste shouted.

His hands were on her body. A blazing fire was going to erupt. It was shocking.

Gary said in a low voice and he acted like a spoiled child, "You really don't want to consider it? I miss you very much. Do you miss me?"

"Get out," Celeste repeated.

Gary's hands stiffened and he released her.

Celeste's legs were so weak that she almost fell to the ground.

Gary wrapped her with a bath towel and said, "I came in just now to tell you that I'll bring you the iPad over later. After you change your clothes, you can look at it on the bed. It's getting late and it's a little cold. just wanted to tell you this."

She did not say anything else, for she knew that he was doing it on purpose.

"Alright, you can change your clothes now."

After that, he went out gracefully and closed the door for her once more.

Celeste was annoyed. She wanted to dig a hole and hide herself in it. She turned around to close the door and locked it.

When he heard the sound of the door being locked, Gary smiled. A faint smile could be seen in his eyes. He admitted that he really did do it on purpose.

He was flirting with her.

He would purposely flirt with her until she couldn't take it anymore. After that, he would stop. Only then would he cause a reaction to her. By then, it would be the best time for him to act.

After returning to the study room, Gary inhaled a deep breath. It seemed that being with Celeste would really require a great amount of selfcontrol. Otherwise, he would have easily lost control. He moved Celeste's belongings and the iPad upstairs.

As soon as he returned to the door, Gary knocked on the door politely.

After a while, she opened the door.

"I've brought them to you." Gary tried to please her.

Celeste turned around and said, "Come in."

Gary noticed that Celeste had changed her clothes, and her face was still pale. Without looking at him, she dried her hair with a hairdryer. The noise entered his heart. Perhaps it was the noise that had helped to ease the tension between the two. Gary walked to the bed and placed the things down. He sat down and looked at Celeste quietly.

Celeste's hair was very short, so her hair dried quickly. She put down the hairdryer, and the whole room quieted down.

The two of them were still silent.

Gary's dark eyes sank. He quietly looked at Celeste and said, "Come on, sit."

Celeste's eyes were drifting, and her long eyelashes were trembling slightly. She lowered her head to cover up the shyness she felt at that moment.

Gary saw how shy she looked and how beautiful the girl who had just emerged from the water was. He reached out to hold her hand and pulled her over. Then, he suddenly let her sit on his lap. Celeste's head was against his shoulder, and his nose was close to his face, so she could smell his masculine scent. In an instant, she shouted in a low voice, "Gary, you're doing this again. What do you want?"

Her voice was sharp and annoyed, but Gary laughed and said with a slight smile, "Celeste, I just want you. I can't resist it. But I know you don't like it, so I just want to hug you."

He would only hug her, and that would make Celeste feel uncomfortable, as he was not going to do anything to her.

Gary lowered his head and looked at her reddish ears. They were very beautiful. He kissed them, and Celeste stiffened instantly. She pushed Gary away and glared at him from a few meters away. "What are you doing? If you keep acting like this, I am going back to London."
