True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1415

Janice was very sad and scared.

Gary's entire body stiffened. He did not move, nor did he push Janice away. There was only a hint of distress on his angular face.

Celeste could tell that he was also upset. He should not have left her behind.

Though, Celeste felt the same as well.

If she had not been so fussy or narrow-minded and allowed Janice to tag along, Janice probably wouldn't have been in trouble.

Celeste couldn't help but feel miserable at the thought of that.

Janice was still hugging Gary and crying. She looked very sad and afraid. It seemed that this time, the brave Janice was also completely frightened.

After a long while, Gary finally comforted Janice softly, "Alright, stop crying."

However, Janice's tears just couldn't stop.

Gary reached out and wrapped his arms gently around and patted her back.

This action made Janice burst into tears as she felt very much wronged.

When Celeste saw him gently patting Janice's back, a trace of disappointment flashed through her heart.

She knew that she was being very narrow-minded, but she just felt very upset and she couldn't control herself.

She couldn't tolerate his gentleness towards any girl other than her.

Gary continued to pat her gently. He muttered to her in an even more tender voice, "If it's really uncomfortable, then just cry."

"I was scared to death," Janice couldn't help but bawl her eyes out. She sobbed uncontrollably and muttered, "They said that they wanted to be my boyfriend. I refused, so they dragged me away forcefully. I tried screaming for help, but no one heard me. I thought I would never see you again. I was really scared to death."

Gary frowned. A while later, he pursed his lips and comforted her, "Alright, everything's fine now."

"I'm afraid," Janice's hand slipped down Gary's neck and wrapped around his waist. She forcefully clung onto him, as though he was her only salvation. She refused to let go.

Gary did not pull his hand back, nor did he exert any strength. He just embraced Janice gently.

Anyone who saw this would think that they were a couple.

Celeste's long eyelashes trembled slightly. She always felt that they were the perfect match, while she was the third wheel in their relationship.

She heaved a sigh of relief after looking at them. Thankfully, nothing had really happened to Janice. If not, Celeste felt that she'd never be at peace with herself.

Furthermore, if something happened to Janice, Gary would definitely blame her.

Fortunately, everything was alright.

She was really grateful to Ava, who really helped out this time round.

Celeste walked over and thanked Ava sincerely, "Thank you, Ava."

Ava looked at Celeste, then at Janice and Gary. Her eyes were filled with worry. She pointed at Gary and gestured at Celeste.

Ava was from Finland, but she was smart and observant. At first glance, she immediately understood what the problem here was.

Celeste shook her head at her. She didn't want to disturb them, but she also wanted to know what had happened. Hence, she changed the topic,

"What happened?"

Ava picked up a broken cell phone from the coffee table in the lobby and said to Celeste, "Nothing happened. When I went over with the hotel staff, those thugs ran away. Nothing was lost, apart from the cell phone. It was broken during the commotion."

"I'm glad she’s fine," Celeste commented gingerly, "Nothing else matters more."

"Yes," Ava nodded and agreed, "They seem to prefer women like you and her. When they saw her alone, they couldn't help but catcall her. Now that I think about it, it could've been really dangerous. I have already told her not to go out if she's alone."

"Thank you," Celeste thanked her sincerely.

Ava looked at her, then at Janice and Gary. She smiled and said, "Well, women's tears are really their biggest weapon. Men are too easily tempted once they see women cry."

Celeste was unable to give her a reply.

Ava had once chosen to study zoology. She had once told her about the attraction between males and females back in the dormitory.

If a male wanted to attract the attention of a female, he had to first be physically strong.

Meanwhile, if a female wanted to attract a male, she had to be physically attractive and needed to share similar likes with the male.

Humans, on the other hand, were on top of the food chain. If men were attracted to women and were together for quite some time, it would be because women were sufficiently independent enough. At the same time, these women would need to be tender and beautiful in accordance with the social standard for women.

It was quite difficult to grasp the thin line between these two.

Celeste was very confused at the time, but when she saw Gary and Janice like this, she couldn't help but sigh.

She felt that Janice and Gary were the same type of people.
