True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2048

Celeste was still very confused and everything felt surreal to her. She hadn't caught up to what was happening just yet.

She didn't expect Gary to come looking for her, and to have guessed so accurately at that.

She had always known that Gary was a skilled hacker. It was easy for him to track her phone and locate her.

Celeste guessed that it should not be a surprise that he would show up.

However, she was still caught off guard by it. Based on their current relationship, she never expected Gary to want to know where she was.

She sighed internally. She was still excited to see him, but it was quickly followed by sadness.

Their relationship was coming to an end.

She couldn't get over this at all.

"He's a really great guy." Florina quipped as she watched Gary walk away. Then, she said admiringly, "He's a good boyfriend too. He doesn't want to be separated from you even for a second. I'm glad to see you two so close with each other."

Celeste paused as she Lasted her gaze downwards and sipped on her milk tea.

She was quiet because she didn't know how or where to begin.

Perhaps it was the silence that tipped Florina off that something was amiss. "Why? Aren't you guys close?"

Celeste froze for a second before she shook her head.

Their relationship wasn't bad, but there were some issues that they couldn't overcome.

Celeste felt that it was impossible for her to properly explain everything, so she just shook her head and smiled.

Florina knew that Celeste wasn't a woman of many words unless one was close to her.

They hadn't met for years, nor were they close back then. Hence, there were still some things they couldn't talk about.

"That means you have a good relationship with each other, no?" Florina smiled. "Come on Celeste, some men need to be coaxed like a little baby. We girls gotta be smart, or else men will get bored of us."

Celeste was taken aback by what Florina said. After everything she had experienced, she did think that what Florina said was reasonable.

Perhaps she had been too boring.

Back then, Gary had at least thought of Janice as interesting.

That was why they were close and he was attracted to her. Plus, Janice was a really nice person back then. She had only turned out this way because she couldn't get the person she wanted.

People would sometimes be confused about their emotions, and they would go to extremes over them.

However, Janice was also how Celeste found out about how much Gary loved her, and she had actually brought them closer.

Their current breakup was only because Celeste couldn't get over what happened.

But of course, she couldn't tell anyone about this.

"You're right." Celeste finally spoke. Ever since Gary came and left, she hadn't said much. She seemed distant, and no one knew what she was thinking. "Women should be more interesting and smart. However, we should still make sure that there are some things we're ignorant about."

"Ignorant?" Florina was intrigued before bursting into laughter. "Are you speaking from experience?"

"Even though we're not very old, we are fairly experienced. You got into university, and I've lived overseas. We do have our fair share of unique experiences indeed."

"Well, you're right." Florina smiled. "I figured you might get together with Gary, but I didn't think it'd last this long. Gary is indifferent and aloof, sometimes even vicious, unlike his brother, Ernest. Now, that's a gentleman through and through."

Celeste was surprised at the mention of Ernest. The current Ernest wasn't who he once was, and he wasn't as gentle as he used to be. His words were sometimes said brashly, but Celeste did not tell Florina that.

"He has a girlfriend too." Celeste smiled. "Don't make your assumptions known, if not you'll make it hard on all of us, including me."

Florina was shocked before she nodded. "I understand what you mean. I'm only telling you this anyway. However, I do have a question. Do you think you're up for it?"

"Ask away," Celeste said.
