True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2035

Celeste's face had turned completely red. She felt awkward and embarrassed. Her face was burning and blood was running to her ears.

Beside her, Gary's keen line of sight had caught her blushing when he turned to look at her. He turned away and a gleamingly calm smile appeared on his face.

As his gaze moved, Gary gradually hid his emotions from his eyes.

He sat there for quite some time, as still as a statue. All he did was watch the barren land outside the window get covered up in a sheet of white snow.

Such a bleak winter's day described the emotions in his heart perfectly: cold yet unforgiving.

For a while, the two of them weren't saying a word. Celeste waited for a while but still couldn't understand why Gary had brought her here.

"Let's head back,” Celeste finally said something as she turned to look at Gary.

As it turned out, his gaze was on her as well.

The emotions flitting in his eyes were complicated yet surprisingly bleak.

Celeste was caught off guard by Gary's gaze.

"Let's take a walk," Gary ignored what Celeste said and prepared to get out of the car. Judging by his stance, there was no way she could refuse his forceful request.

Gary opened the car door and got out.

Meanwhile, Celeste frowned as she didn’t want to get out.

If she did, she wouldn't be able to control the memories of what happened that very night when they went hiking in the middle of the night and decided to screw around instead of sleeping.

The very thought of those crazy moments they shared made her blush.

Yet at that very moment, Celeste knew that she couldn't think of the past anymore.

The moments they shared would only shake her resolution and cause her to turn back on her decision.

Therefore, Celeste didn't follow after Gary and stayed in the car, refusing to move a muscle.

Since Gary didn't hear the sound of a car door opening, he stopped in his tracks and turned back.

Celeste was sitting in the car, her gaze lowered.

Her emotions were masked and Gary didn't know what she was thinking about, but it was likely that she was contemplating whether she should get out of the car or not.

With that, Gary walked over and helped Celeste open her car door.

Celeste stiffened. Once again, she looked up at Gary.

Gary looked expressionless, but his eyes spoke a thousand words.

"Come on and take a walk with me. Since you've already made a decision, our time together will only reduce from here onwards."

Celeste's heart tightened in pain.

The pain lingered. The intensity differed, but the pain never disappeared.

It was as if someone had set her lungs and her heart ablaze, making it difficult for her to catch her breath.

It made her very uncomfortable.

"I'm afraid there won't be any chances left," Gary said as he saw that Celeste wasn't moving, "At this point, I know that nothing I say can change a thing. However, I want you to believe that I'll really miss every single minute and second spent with you."

Gary spoke with all earnesty and seriousness.

Celeste felt sadder upon hearing those words. She pursed her lips, a hint of reluctance flashing through her eyes.

If this really was their last moment together, she didn't want to let it go so easily either.

Ultimately, Celeste decided to get out of the car and accompany Gary for a walk in the mountains.

There was no one on the top of the mountain, but the mountain path was clean and well-maintained. At the same time, it was spacious but exceptionally lonely, just like the hearts of both Celeste and Gary.

Gary didn't move away as Celeste got out of the car and stood immensely close to the car. The minute Celeste stepped out of the car, she immediately fell into Gary’s arms.

Once again, a wave of awkwardness washed over her.

Celeste's nose just so happened to brush against Gary' s chest. However, Gary was unfazed. Meanwhile, Celeste had an irresistible urge to slink back into the car to avoid such an awkward situation from happening again.

However, Gary immediately reached out and wrapped his arm around Celeste's petite body, pulling her into his warm embrace.

Suddenly, Celeste felt uncomfortable as she took in the familiar cologne lingering on Gary. It was sweet yet refreshing.

She once thought that she would forever be able to enjoy the smell of Gary's shampoo and the warmth of his embrace. But now, it seemed one couldn't promise forever too easily.

Forever was just too long. Once careless, anything could happen.

It took just one slip for everything built on forever to come crashing down. Initial sweet words were never made to last.
