True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1689

Celeste was startled as she subconsciously reached out her hand, only to see Gary's handsome face.

He was looking at her with his sharp and intimidating gaze.

Celeste felt helpless as she said, "Cindy sent me an insulting text message, and I didn't hold back."

"I saw it," Gary replied.

Dumbfounded, Celeste asked in surprise, "Did you actually see that?"

Gary nodded and said, "Yes, I saw it clearly with my own eyes. It's good that you called her out, but then I can tell from your gaze that you actually do care, don't you?"

Celeste's heart tightened, but she still nodded in full honesty. "Although I don't want to admit it, I had to say that her words were somehow making sense. It's true that I am relying on you and the Jones family's protection."

"What's wrong with you relying on me when you're mine?" Gary asked back with a smile, "She can't expect you to rely on someone else other than me,

can she?"

Celeste nodded. "You are right."

"Of course I am right. I'm not here to let you judge whether I'm right or not. I just want you to know deep down in your heart that we are sharing an equal relationship. You are relying on me, and at the same time, I'm relying on you too," Gary said in a low yet determined tone.

Celeste was a little surprised. "Are you saying that you actually rely on me too?"

Celeste thought about it carefully for a while, yet she still couldn't tell what Gary was relying on her for.

"Of course I do. We need each other, and no one can ever comfort me on the spiritual level like you do. Isn't this enough? You should know that nothing can top the spiritual level's support!" Gary sounded even more serious.

Celeste was actually touched by his comforting words.

She quickly adjusted her emotions and pulled herself together. She smiled at Gary and said, "That's enough. You don't have to comfort me. I'm not as weak as you think. It's just that, at that moment, I kind of agreed with what she said, and that made me a little emotional. However, I know I shouldn't let her manipulate my feelings with her words, as that is exactly what she wants to see."

"It seems like my girl knows everything. If that's the case, then don't fall for her tricks," Gary said.

"Don't you worry. I won't be used by her," Celeste replied.

"You will get a new phone number tonight, so stop using this number. Cindy won't be able to find you even if she wants to," Gary said.

"Sure, I'll change my number." Celeste also agreed that she should stop using the number if she wanted to avoid troubles like that in the future. She had to make sure that Cindy wouldn't find out about her new number too.

Noticing that Celeste was trying her best to adjust her emotions, Gary's heart ached for her. He reached out his hand to rub gently on her hair.

He also made up his mind to teach Cindy and Sinclair a lesson that time, so that they would behave and Celeste would have nothing to worry about in the future.

He would never allow Celeste to be harassed by those two shameless people again and again.

That afternoon.

Alex gave Celeste the new phone number and said, "This is from Mr. Ernest."

"That was fast," Gary said with a smile. He then took the card for Celeste and helped her install it.

Seeing that they were so close with each other, Alex left the room with a smile.

Celeste was finally at ease after changing her phone number.

She could finally stop answering Cindy's calls.

Soon, they got off work and went home.
