True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1710

Heinz successfully dissolved Gary's embarrassment. Meanwhile, the youngsters on the table all exchanged glee looks and smirked. They were pretty amazed at Heinz's quick thinking and caught the double meaning behind Heinz's words.

Heinz had said that about Liam because he knew that he and Maria were sleeping together every night. As such, Liam would need to take some health tonics to boost his energy and hormone secretion.

As for Ernest, he was the only person in the house who was still single. As such, Heinz guessed that Ernest must be feeling frustrated about lacking a partner.

As such, Ernest needed something to soothe his nerves.

After what Heinz had said, everyone felt embarrassed. Maria did not dare to speak up anymore.

On the other hand, Gary shot Heinz a discreet glance when everyone wasn't noticing.

Heinz looked up silently and winked at his son. He looked very proud, as if he wanted Gary to acknowledge that he had saved Gary from divulging the truth.

Gary glared at Heinz. Without another word, he lowered his head and began to drink his soup.

Meanwhile, Celeste stayed quiet.

After the meal, Celeste found an opportunity to pass on a few words to the butler, Pedro in private.

"Mr. Butler."

When Pedro turned around and saw Celeste, he asked suspiciously, "Oh, hello Miss Celeste. Why are you in the kitchen? If there's anything you need, just tell me. Don't be shy. You didn't have to come all the way in here."

"I need to entrust you with something. Please promise me that you won't let anyone else know about this," Celeste whispered after she found that no one was close by.

"Why are you being so mysterious? Tell me, what is it? I promise to keep it a secret," Pedro lowered his voice. He was very quick to get the memo.

"Gary's body needs some patching up these few days. Can you prepare more tonics such as the soup you made for him today?" Celeste looked at the butler eagerly. She hoped that the butler would help her out.

"Is Master Gary okay? Master Heinz told me to do the exact same thing as well. Did something happen to Master Gary? Is he okay?" Pedro asked in surprise.

Celeste's heart tightened at that. When she heard that Heinz already had everything planned, she heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed that Uncle Heinz was very concerned about Gary's health as well. He had already been five steps ahead of her.

"It's nothing to worry about. Just do as Uncle Heinz says. Please remember to keep this to yourself. If Aunt Smith finds out, she'll get worried. It won't be good for the babies in her belly," Celeste hurriedly said.

Pedro nodded firmly and replied, "Okay, I understand. Don't worry."

"Since Uncle Heinz has given you the orders, I can be rest assured. Just continue to give him more tonics. Alright, I'll take my leave now," Celeste grinned.

"Alright, Miss Celeste," Pedro walked her out of the kitchen.

Gary had been watching them from a distance. When he noticed Celeste exiting the kitchen, he yelled, "Celeste, why were you in the kitchen?"

Celeste panicked, unable to answer.

Pedro was a tactile man. He answered Gary without missing a beat, "Miss Celeste asked me to cut you some fruits. She's worried that the soup will make you queasy."

Celeste was taken aback, but she quickly nodded to cover it up, "That's right, thank you again. Please get the fruits out as fast as you can."

"Alright. I'll be done in a moment," Pedro smiled warmly.

Only then did Celeste walk towards Gary and met his gaze.

Gary eyed Celeste cautiously and did not notice anything out of the ordinary. He put an arm around her shoulder and suggested, "Come on, let's go for a short stroll. I need a short walk so the food can be digested."

"You want to go for a walk? Aren't you tired?" Celeste asked.

"No, I feel fine," Gary replied.

"I'm worried that you'll feel unwell," Celeste thought that it was better for Gary to rest as much as possible these few days before moving around too much. She was worried that his blood sugar would suddenly plummet and that he would faint.

Even though Gary didn't find anything telling in Celeste's expression, he couldn't help but carefully glance at her a few more times as he said, "You're saying that as if I've suddenly turned weak."

Celeste smiled awkwardly and replied, "No, I didn't mean that. Alright then, I'll go for a walk with you."

After that, Celeste took Gary's arm in hers. They did not look like a young couple holding hands. Instead, it looked like Celeste was trying to support Gary's weight as though he was a frail old man.

"Celeste, why are you..." Gary trailed off. He wanted to ask if Celeste knew about what he did for Cindy.

However, he thought that it was too abrupt of a question. Hence, he decided not to.
