True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1241

Gary was taken aback by the question. He quickly rolled his eyes around and said, "Mommy, I was just kidding. You don't have to take it to heart. We're only 16; there's only so much we know about relationships."

He stopped in time and knew how to avoid her questions properly. Grace stared at her son, and for the first time, she truly felt that her son had grown up; he had secrets he wished to keep to himself.

And he knew to keep it from her.

She couldn't help but ponder on whether she had been overly focused on her two younger children and ended up neglecting her eldest son. Perhaps, that was why he no longer wished to share his secrets with her.

Grace sighed in her heart and looked at him with gentle eyes. "Gary, can we talk about why you are so insistent on studying abroad in a different country from Ernest? Considering how the both of you only reunited when you were five, I'm actually hoping that you could leave together."

Gary looked at his mother and asked, "Mommy, are you worried about me or Ernest not being able to get used to living overseas?"

Grace was shocked, "I'm worried about the both of you."

"Mommy, although we're twins, we're still individuals," Gary reiterated once again, "I hope that you can respect our choices. After all, we are the ones in charge of our own lives in the future. My life won't intersect with Ernest's and vice versa, so we will have to deal with it on our own."

Grace was about to say something, but Gary spoke again, "Just like how you and Little Aunt both have your own lives. Little Aunt left you to run the Sunny Group, and she has been doing well, not to mention how she also has a happy family with two children."

"Gary," Grace said with a serious tone, "I can see where you are coming from, but don't you think your decision might be a little rash? Considering how you made this decision because of a girl?"

Gary looked as if he was caught off guard, "Mommy, who told you this was due to a girl?"

"I can tell," Grace answered, "Don't try to hide it. Gary, you know that I trust you and Ernest, which is why I think that there is no reason for both of you to separate. Life is a long journey in which love and relationships could change anytime."

"Mommy, let Ernest and Celeste go to England together." Gary spoke seriously, "I'm really fine with it. You don't have to worry about me."

"Gary, what I meant was for the both of you to not separate from one another."

"Mommy, am I the one who is studying abroad, or you?"

Grace didn't know how to respond to that.

She knew that she couldn't force things to go her way.

At first, she didn't care, but now she suddenly felt concerned about it.

Who would have thought that Celeste would appear in this whole saga?

It seemed like Gary had already made up his mind, but what about Ernest?

"Mommy, I want to be alone for now. Why don't you go and work on other things? You don't have to worry about me."

After being ordered to leave by her son, Grace felt helpless at how he wouldn't obey her upon growing up.

She nodded. Even though she wanted to talk more about it, she still left his room quickly.

She gave him space to contemplate.
