True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1421

Celeste was stunned and looked at Gary in surprise.

Janice was also a little startled. She hurriedly shook her head and said, "Yes, I'm not Gary's girlfriend. We're just good friends."

Celeste was really shocked by what Gary said.

She twitched her lips awkwardly and didn't know what to say.

Flynt took a glance at them and turned to Celeste. "Mr. Smith, Miss Simpson, is this your first time in Edinburgh?"

"Yes, it's our first time." Janice nodded. "It's a pleasure to know you, Mr. Quartley. If you have time today, maybe you could show us around. We would really appreciate it."

"Sure, I was planning to hang out with Celeste today. But since everyone is here, let's go out together," Flynt replied.

"Why don't we invite Ava to join us? She did help a lot last night." Janice suggested.

"She has plans today," Celeste said. "She didn't come here for a vacation. She is doing some research with my other classmates." Celeste replied.

"Why don't you call and ask her," Janice said.

Helplessly, Celeste still made the call. It was as she said; Ava was busy.

"Then it will be just the four of us," Janice said.

So the four of them had breakfast and left for the road trip.

When they left the hotel, Celeste thought Gary would drive, but he didn't. Instead, he said to Flynt, "Can we all ride in your car, Mr. Quartley? I didn't rest well today; I don't think it's safe for me to drive."

"Sure," Flynt nodded immediately. "Let's go. My car is just right here."

Upon reaching his car, Flynt opened the front passenger seat door and said to Celeste, "Celeste, come."

Before Celeste even moved, Gary walked over to the front passenger seat and sat down while smiling at Flynt.

Seeing Gary's actions, Celeste was baffled.

Flynt was also a little confused. He really didn't understand what was up with Celeste's brother.

Flynt subconsciously looked at Celeste. She could only smile apologetically at him.

Flynt let it go. He smiled; it was as warm as ever.

"Whatever," Janice said to Celeste and Flynt. "Ignore him. He has a sister complex. He probably doesn't like his sister sitting with another man."

Flynt was stunned and took a serious glance at Celeste. He found that Celeste's expression was highly unusual.

Janice quickly pulled Celeste into the backseat and smiled at Flynt.

Flynt nodded lightly, got into the driver's seat, and started the engine.

Celeste truly felt a sense of awkwardness in the air.

Luckily Janice was there. She soon patted Gary's shoulder saying, "You don't need to pull such a grim face. You don't look like you're going on a trip; more like you're heading to a grave."

Gary furrowed his brows, "It's none of your business."

"You're going to make it hard for Celeste's friend to deal with your attitude," Janice whispered to Gary from his back.

Gary didn't care if his attitude bothered Flynt. "Mr. Quartley wouldn't mind." He even looked at Flynt while saying it.

Flynt was taken aback. He quickly shook his head and said, "Of course I don't mind."

Gary then didn't say anything more.

Celeste didn't say anything either.

As long as Janice was there, the atmosphere would naturally not be awkward. She even managed to continue her conversation with Flynt from the backseat, "Mr. Quartley, it seems that you have already started working, am I right?"

"Yes. I've graduated for two years now." Flynt said.

"No wonder. You look like you're a few years older than us." Janice added.

"Yes, I've graduated from postgraduate study and worked for two years. I'm indeed a few years older than Celeste." Flynt said.

"How old are you, Celeste?" Janice asked.

"20," Celeste replied.

"You're the same age as Gary?" Janice exclaimed.
