True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1278

Celeste didn't expect Gary to question her back. She was stunned for a moment before she smiled sheepishly.

There were some things that she chose not to say as she thought that he would understand.

After all, if she said it out loud, she would sound narrow-minded.

Celeste didn't explain and remained silent.

For a moment, no one spoke.

Gary paused for a moment. He didn't need Celeste to speak to guess the concern in her heart.

She was afraid because Ernest was a boy. In other words, she felt that it was inappropriate for them to live together.

Even if Maria was there, it would not be that appropriate. They had to maintain a respectful distance.

What surprised him even more was that she was asking for his opinion.

He could not help but feel comforted by her consideration. He quickly asked, "Celeste, have you begun to consider my feelings?"

Celeste was stunned momentarily. She soon realized that he probably understood as he was smart. She whispered, "You've guessed it?"

"Of course," Gary smiled and did not hide his happiness, "I'm very pleased. You've already learned how to consider my feelings. However, your safety is the most important thing to me. Staying with Maria and Ernest is much safer than living on your own."

Upon hearing Gary's words, Celeste was a little surprised at first, almost believing that it was all in her head.

She thought that when Gary knew she was staying with Maria and Ernest, he would be angry.

After all, Ernest was a man. Celeste staying with them would be slightly inconvenient.

However, she didn't expect him to care more about her safety.

Her safety was more important than anything.

Everything else could be placed aside as long as she was safe.

Celeste's heart suddenly felt warm because of his sentence, and she heaved a clear sigh of relief. Her tightly-pressed lips quickly relaxed and bloomed into a wide grin.

"Thank you, I'm very happy," Celeste opened her heart to him, "I'm really happy to hear you say

that."

"You didn't expect that?" Gary could easily capture her thoughts.

With just a few words, he was able to brighten her day. This girl was easily coaxed.

They couldn't see each other and were only able to communicate through phone calls. Hence, they could only use their voices to distinguish each other's feelings.

"I'm really surprised," Celeste was honest, "I thought you would be the first to object."

"Don't always assume what I am going to say," Gary chuckled, "There are some things that you haven't heard with your own ears. Don't just assume that I'll be mad before asking."

"I know now," Celeste laughed, "If that's the case, you better take care of yourself and get well soon." "Don't worry, I'm fine," Gary promised, "I'll be well soon."

"Have you eaten yet?" Celeste asked.

"Lowell is cooking up something."

"Who is Lowell?"

"He's a rather complicated person of mine," Gary paused for a moment before telling her, "You'll find out in the future."

He didn't explain further, and Celeste didn't ask too much either. Instead, she said, "Okay, I'll wait until you can explain it to me."

"Lowell is a guy," Gary said quickly, as if he was afraid that Celeste would misunderstand him.

Celeste only laughed, "I know, Maria told me."

Gary was also stunned, "Maria told you?"

"Yep, she just told me that you live with Lowell." Celeste said, "It's good to have a friend staying with you."

"What if Lowell was a girl? What are you going to do?" Gary couldn't help but tease her when he saw that she seemed to be very considerate.
