True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1897

"I see him," Gary said in a deep voice. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. "It's the winter season. There are ten minutes left for the classes."

Celeste nodded. "I can't believe you still remember the school hours. You have really good memory."

"Don't tell me you've forgotten?" Gary rubbed affectionately on her head. "I remember you also skipped a grade. Although you're not as smart as me, you're still smart enough."

"I didn't forget." Celeste laughed sheepishly. "I know I'm not as smart as you, but then, can't you make it sound nicer?"

"Well, I can't help it when I'm this confident about myself." Gary quirked his eyebrows.

Celeste was at a loss for words.

"Keep an eye on Kendrix. He will definitely give Sylvia the notes after her class," Gary said.

"How are you so sure? I don't think he'll rush for this," Celeste said.

"He's running out of time. Sylvia needs the notes, and since Kendrix is playing out his plan, he knows better than to drag it on," Gary said, "Otherwise, he wouldn't have offered to fulfil any wish from Sylvia."

Celeste finally understood. "Is he waiting for Sylvia to take the first step in this and confess her feelings?"

"It's still too early for that. He wants to secure a chance of meeting Sylvia again after she graduates," Gary said, "I admire him for pouring in so much effort. He's a man who would keep his words."

"At least he's considering the best for Sylvia's studies and not want to affect her studies," Celeste said, "I think he's a responsible man. He thinks of her studies first and made her see the light of her future."

Celeste believed that Kendrix would only be breaking Sylvia's heart if he directly rejected her feelings.

Instead, he gave Sylvia hope by fulfilling her a wish, by the condition of her excelling in her studies. If she liked him, she would do as told.

He was quite a decent person, and it was a great plan.

Time passed by and soon, classes were over.

Celeste sat up straight immediately and focused on the screen. After noticing that Kendrix had walked out from an office with a slightly heavier bag than before, she immediately asked, "Why do I feel like the notes are thicker now?"

Gary also moved closer. His sharp gaze stared intently at the scene. After which, he nodded. "It is indeed a little thicker than before."

"Could it be that he also added some revision materials for Sylvia?" Celeste asked.

Gary nodded. "You're right."

"Could you see what was inside the bag?" Celeste asked.

"I'm guessing a set of past year questions. We bought materials like this back then. I saw the cover through the bag, and it seemed like it." Gary leaned back in his seat as he fixed his gaze on the screen.

He couldn't wait to see Kendrix going to look for Sylvia, as it would be such an interesting scene that would be hard to com by.

However, Kendrix walked to a classroom, and instead of Sylvia, he looked for someone else.

It was a tall boy. He was seen talking to the boy before handing the notes over to to the boy. Kendrix then walked away.

"It's not Sylvia," Celeste gasped. "He handed the notes to someone else." Gary frowned. His sharp gaze was still on the screen, being deep in his thoughts.

Celeste then said, "He's looking inside the bag. Wait, he walked into the classroom."

Gary also leaned forward. He gently rubbed the space between his eyebrows with his slender fingers.

About a minute later, Sylvia walked out of the classroom in a hurry, as if she was chasing after someone.

The scenes were changing until they finally saw Sylvia catching up with Kendrix.

Gary smiled. "I didn't take Kendrix to be so pretentious. He got someone else to pass it to Sylvia."

Celeste was also surprised. "He was already outside of the classroom, yet he asked a random student to hand the notes to her instead of giving it to her himself. What was he thinking?"

"He's obviously putting on airs." Gary smiled.

Through the screen, they saw that Sylvia was talking to Kendrix with a smile on her face.

Kendrix was staring at her with a calm expression.

He was still in his sportswear, which looked thin, showing off his big build figure.

Sylvia's smile grew wider throughout their conversation. She said something more to Kendrix before walking away.

Kendrix seemed to be startled for a while as he watched her left. He suddenly came to realization and looked up at the surveillance camera. His gaze was as sharp as a hawk's, and it was intimidating.

Both Gary and Celeste gasped at that.

"He looked at the surveillance camera. Did he notice something?" Celeste couldn't hold back and exclaimed, "Is he suspecting something?"

"Perhaps it's just out of habit," Gary said in a deep tone, "I don't think he suspects us. It should be out of habit."

Celeste sounded impressed. "That's still smart of him. No wonder he's a police officer. He's so good at detecting things."

Kendrix stared at the surveillance camera for some moments before walking away.
