True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2009

A surge of bitterness filled Celeste's heart when she saw Gary stuttering. But she held back her emotions, not wanting to seem overly jealous.

"You don't have to make allowances for me. All I want to know is how it happened and perhaps an explanation from your side," She took a deep breath. Finally, she was relieved that she said what she wanted to say.

Celeste had thought long and hard just a while ago. She wanted to run away from all this but realized it was going to do her no good. Hiding and running away was not the solution to the problem at hand.

After sorting out her emotions in the bathroom, she was much calmer now.

Hence, Celeste decided to talk to him about it.

Otherwise, this matter would keep occupying her mind and she would never feel at ease.

Rather than being kept in the dark, she would like to know the full story to make a clear judgment.

Currently, Celeste had yet to hear Gary's explanation, so what she knew and what she heard was only one side of the picture.

If she made a decision based on that alone, it would be unfair to him.

Celeste was still in her right mind.

She did not want to end their relationship on impulse. She wanted to face it calmly instead.

Upon hearing her question, Gary was beyond shocked.

He was conflicted as he looked at her. Somehow, he was embarrassed and hesitant because he was the one at fault here.

Gary bit his lips before saying, "I was in a bad mood when we broke up because you'd been ignoring me. I felt like a walking zombie every day. That's why I went to the bar one day to drink my sorrows away. But somehow, Janice brought me to a hotel. I didn't know how it all happened, and I was so shocked when I woke up."

"Janice told me we had s*x, but I have no recollection of it at all. That's all. I'm not lying. Come to think of it, I don't even feel that I slept with her at all."

"I know it's hard for you to believe me, or you would even say I am a coward for saying such things."

"But I really have no idea what happened between us."

"Are you saying that although you'd been so drunk that you have no idea whether you slept with Janice or not, she became pregnant?" Celeste was still calm when she asked so, but not on the inside.

She could feel her heart aching.

She was very, very jealous, and she didn't know how to face Gary now.

She felt a great wrench of sadness.

Hearing it from Gary himself made her feel so sad.

"Yes," Gary nodded solemnly, and his expression was extremely awkward.

After all, he felt guilty for hurting her.

"Tell me the details then," Celeste's voice was barely above a whisper. However, she looked firm as she said, "I want to know everything."
