Celeste nodded honestly and said, "Sometimes I seem to be acting awkward indeed."
"Well," Gary laughed pleasantly, "As expected, the thirty million dollars wasn't spent in vain."
Celeste glanced at him. His handsome face had a hint of joy on it. Celeste felt that Gary liked to tease her.
She smiled as well and retorted, "However, no matter how awkward I am, I'm still a little better than you. Gary, you're a very, very awkward boy." "Hey!" Gary gasped. However, he wasn't angry. He only shifted forward and saw his face reflected in the phone. Celeste could see his eyes right in front of her.
She was shocked and stepped back subconsciously. She held the mobile phone a little further away.
"Celeste," Gary's voice wafted over, "Since you know that I'm awkward, then I won't tease you anymore. I want to tell you something."
"Yes?" She was a little surprised and didn't know what he was going to say next.
When she saw him staring at the screen, she suddenly felt a little nervous.
"Don't change your family name," Gary said, "At least not now."
Celeste was shocked again, and something flashed through her mind. She murmured, "You know about this too?"
"Yes," Gary said in a low and hoarse voice as if he was right beside her.
Celeste nodded. She lowered her eyes and spoke her mind, "I don't want to change my family name to Jones."
"Oh?" Gary was surprised and asked, "Why?"
"That's because your surname is Smith," Celeste looked up and instantly looked into Gary's eyes.
His eyes were so inky that she couldn't see through them.
Celeste's heart seemed to have skipped a beat and she could only look at him blankly.
After a moment of surprise, Gary curled his lips and let out a joyful smile.
He understood what Celeste meant, and he knew that Celeste had been thinking about him in all aspects.
There was some progress.
Gary couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Celeste felt a little awkward as he stared at her. She felt that Gary was intentionally trying to make her angry.
"As for your family name, let's change it together in the future," He finally stopped smiling and said seriously, "It's not the right time now."
Celeste was surprised and asked, "Do you mean that you're going to change your family name to Jones in the future?"
Gary did not speak. His gaze was surging with emotion.
Celeste was still worried and urged, "Why aren't you saying something? Do you really mean that?"
"What about you? Do you want me to change my name to Gary Jones?" He asked with a faint smile.
Celeste nodded seriously, "Although I don't know what happened, I think you should change your family name. You used to share the same family name with your mother, but I heard from Aunt Smith that your biological grandfather is a Yarbrough, so I don't think it's necessary for you to retain your surname as Smith."
There was really no need to do that.
However, even though it was so easy to have the surname Jones, he still didn't want to change it immediately.
"Let's talk about this later," Gary replied.
"Aunt Smith said she would help me find who my biological parents are. Let's talk about this when she finds out," Similarly, Celeste had some personal plans for the future.
However, it was fortunate that she knew how to reflect on her life.
"By the way, did my mother give you some pocket money?" Gary almost forgot the most important question.
