True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1322

Five minutes later, Cindy's phone rang.

The minute she picked up her phone, she knew that Monica had found out.

She took a deep breath and answered the call, "Hi, Monica."

"Cindy, what's wrong with you?" Monica was very anxious, "Why didn't you tell me immediately when something happened? I can't believe I had to find out through Mr. Holland?"

"I'm sorry, Monica," Cindy said awkwardly, "I'm sorry."

"You don't have to be so polite. I'll be heading to your place right away. You need an expert, right?"

"That's right."

"Okay, wait for me. I'll be there in an hour."

"All right."

Meanwhile, next door.

Both Ernest and Maria were in Celeste's room. Celeste's face seemed extremely pale and she didn't go downstairs.

Ernest and Maria looked at each other and said,

"They will sign the agreement by today. From now on, you can just concentrate on your studies."

"That's right, Celeste," Maria added, "We didn't expect your aunt to agree so quickly."

Celeste lowered her head, her long eyelashes fluttering and masking the worry in her eyes.

"Are you worried about the email your aunt mentioned?" Ernest saw how odd Celeste had been acting and couldn't help but ask.

Celeste was surprised and looked up at Ernest. She was a little flustered and did not dare to look directly into his eyes. She tried to laugh it off, "Sorry, I'm such a disappointment. I'm still worried about her, even though I don't agree with everything she does."

"You silly girl," Maria also chuckled, "It's normal for you to be worried. She's been your aunt for so many years, and you guys have bonded with each other for so long. It would be strange if you are not even worried at all."

Celeste looked at them with shame and anger. She felt guilty and didn't dare to look straight into their eyes. She was always troubling others.

Ernest had a deep look in his eyes as he said to Celeste, "Don't feel burdened. Being grateful is a human trait."

Celeste nodded.

"You two can continue to chat, I'm going to call my brother," Ernest shot them a meaningful look before turning to leave.

Maria pointed towards Ernest's retreating back and asked Celeste, "Did you find anything different about him?"

"What do you mean?" Celeste was puzzled.

Maria thought for a moment and muttered, "I thought he would never contact Gary on his own. Why is he doing so?"

Celeste was stupefied and shook her head, asking, "Are you saying that they won't contact each other on their own?"

Maria nodded and sighed, "I don't know what happened. It seems like their relationship is no longer as close as before."

In truth, Maria had a feeling that the reason for this was Celeste. They both realized that they both had fallen in love with her.

Thus, this pulled their relationship apart.

"No way," Celeste shook her head and frowned, "I recall that they've both called one another before."

"Yeah," Maria agreed, "That's why I find it strange when Ernest said that he wants to give Gary a call. Why would he call him at this time, if not to tell him about your change in guardianship?"

Celeste lowered her head when Gary was mentioned. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt a little embarrassed and guilty. She didn't dare to look straight into Maria's eyes.
