True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1519

"Celeste, is there not even the slightest chance for you and Gary to be back together?" Maria inquired when they returned to Celeste's room.

Celeste grabbed a few snacks, turned around, glanced at Maria, and handed them to her. Then she nodded in firm assurance.

"Yes. I don't intend to start over with him again. This isn't a joke. I've already thought it over."

Maria frowned, feeling puzzled, "But when I observed you, you still seem to care about him a lot. Can't you give him another chance?"

"Maria, I broke up with him because I know that we won't turn out well together. It's true that I still care about him. I broke up with him not because I don't love him, but rather, as a result of my personal reasons. I love him, but we can't be together."

"If you love each other, the both of you shouldn't have broken up in the first place," Maria stated seriously, "I can feel that he loves you as well. Just look at him. He has changed a lot."

"Maria, why don't you get it?" Celeste explained, "I don't fully understand him. Throughout the four years, I hardly talked to him and had occasional video calls. I don't truly understand him. Do you know what I mean?"

"I only understand the Gary in front of the screen. I know nothing about his habits, his personality, his everything. I don't know what type of friends he has, what classes he signed up for, the food he likes and dislikes. I don't know anything about him."

"On the contrary, the same applies to me. He doesn't know me either. He only knows the side that I choose to present myself in front of the screen. He knows nothing about what I like or what I dislike."

"So the two of us had a lot of conflicts for more than a month. My limits and my opinions didn't matter to him."

"Even with Janice, he did not seem to care."

"I told him that Janice had feelings for him, but he brushed it off with a smile. He doesn't seem to care about flirting with other girls. Instead, I seem to be too meddlesome."

Maria was stunned, "Although I don't know why the both of you broke up, I believe that you must have your reasons. Maybe it's true that Gary did do something wrong, but aren't you being too stubborn, Celeste?

Boys can't let go of their self- pride at times. Shouldn't you cut him some slack? Don't be too persistent. If he didn't go too far, I hope that you two can start all over again."

Celeste shook her head, sighed, and asked softly in return, "If I have to tolerate him every time he goes too far beyond my boundaries as he thinks that it isn't important, would that still be considered my limit?"

"That's true." Maria was stunned by the question.

"Maria, I'm serious. I'm concerned about him because I still love him. I do love him very much, but we're not meant to be. A break- up is inevitable. Even if I forgive him now and the two of us get back together, our next break-up may end up in a worse outcome. In that case, we'll have to break up again and again. Why bother? It's better for us to part now and not hold each other back."

"But it's such a pity." Maria was worried, "After all, you two are so close."

Although Maria pursued her studies in England, she had a traditional mindset when it came to relationships, so she was inevitably worried.

Celeste's entire body stiffened when she heard that. She wasn't the kind of girl who would casually date. She hadn't thought of getting together with someone else after her breakup with

Gary.

She didn't want to always be on needle ends and lose herself. That was all.

"Intimacy is probably one of the biggest problems between us. What I want and what he wants are two completely different things." Celeste mocked, "Do you know? We spent most of our time in bed during our two months of summer vacation. Do you think such a relationship would turn out well? This isn't a relationship between couples. We're better off as friends with benefits."

Maria was taken aback as she was reminded of the fact that she and Liam were the same.

Most of the time they met, they went straight to bed without any other thoughts.

Maria understood that Celeste's worry made sense, but that was exactly how Maria and Liam got along with each other.

In fact, when she compared her relationship to Gary and Celeste's, it seemed that there wasn't much of a difference.

Thinking about it, how much did she truly understand Liam?

On the other hand, how much did Liam understand her?

They didn't have many things in common that could keep them together. As soon as they met, they would wiggle around in the small bedroom space.

It was all they had. Those feelings were built up upon intercourse, but was there a genuine emotional connection?

Had they ever understood each other?

When their passion faded, would they still be together?

Right then, as Celeste brought that matter up, Maria's heart sank to the pit of her stomach. She began to worry.
