True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1276

Celeste and Maria were both stunned when they heard the phone ring.

Maria immediately asked, "Is it Gary?"

Celeste picked up the phone quickly and glanced at it. Her gaze, which had been a little excited, dimmed when she saw the caller ID. Then she shook her head and said, "No, it's Liam."

"Liam?" Maria shouted excitedly in a low voice, "You mean Liam's calling?"

Celeste nodded and smiled at her, "Let me answer the phone first."

"You can answer it, go ahead. Don't make my idol wait," Maria did not leave either. She watched Celeste answer the phone with much anticipation. Her eyes were literally shooting stars as she waited for Liam to say something.

"Hello?" Celeste answered the call, "Liam?"

"Celeste, have you arrived at your friend's place?" Liam's caring voice came from the other side of the phone.

Celeste replied immediately, "Yes."

"Everything went well, didn't it?"

"It went well," Celeste answered, "It's just that, about my aunt..."

"Oh, don't worry about Ms. White. I've already called her. She has no problems with this, so you can stay with your friend for the time being," Liam replied.

"Okay," Celeste didn't expect Cindy to agree so easily. If that was the case, she didn't have to worry about telling Cindy about her difficulties.

She became a little more relaxed once her worries were resolved.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Maria looking at her and immediately understood Maria's anticipation.

Celeste gave it some thought before asking, "Liam, do you know Ernest?"

"Ernest?" Liam was stunned for a moment before saying, "Yeah, how did you know that?"

"What a coincidence. Ernest is also my classmate. Maria is Ernest's cousin," After Celeste finished speaking, Maria's expression was ecstatic.

She was looking forward to what Liam had to say.

However, Liam's reaction was rather dull, "Oh, is that so?"

Celeste was stunned when she heard that.

Maria also heard it because Celeste had put Liam on speaker.

They thought that Liam would say something else, only to hear him say "Celeste, it's good that you've reached her place. I still have something to do. Let's contact each other another time."

Celeste didn't expect Liam to hang up like this. She said quickly, "Liam, I am now living with Maria and Ernest. They are cousins. If you have the time, you can come visit us."

Hearing this, Liam paused for a while before laughing, "Celeste, I don't know what your relationship is with him, but I have an obligation to remind you that it's not appropriate for you to invite someone over as a guest."

Celeste was stunned.

Liam said again, "Be a good girl. I'll contact you after I'm done with my work."

Just like that, Liam hung up the phone.

Celeste felt a little embarrassed.

Maria also looked incredulous. She looked at Celeste, and the two of them exchanged helpless and puzzled glances.

"Maria, I wanted to take this opportunity to have you two get to know each other, but you heard what he said."

Celeste didn't finish whatever was on her mind.

However, Maria understood.

She shook her head and pursed her lips. Her voice was soft and tinted with disappointment and frustration as she sighed, "It doesn't matter, Celeste. I know that you did this for my sake. I am also aware of how you'd like Liam and I to get closer. I am very grateful to you for this. We can't do anything about his attitude."

Maria was telling the truth.

She liked Liam. As for Liam's attitude, it was really his freedom to how he wanted to act.

She could not change his mind.

As for Celeste, who was nice to her and considerate for her, their friendship was already very precious.
