True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2062

Celeste was growing nervous. If Heinz and Grace were starting to have doubts about the state of their relationship, it would be harder for them to keep this up.

If Heinz was not suspicious, why would he come upstairs but then not knock on their door? Why would he eavesdrop on them?

It wasn't logical.

Just now, Heinz must be too embarrassed to answer Gary's questions, so he had not said a word.

Just then, Gary smiled and said, "It's nothing. You don't have to worry. It's easy to go up against them. All we need is a little something."

Celeste frowned and asked, "What is it? What is this little something?"

He paused for a moment and hesitated as if he was worried about upsetting her.

Seeing him like that, she said grimly, "Just tell me." She would do anything to lessen Heinz and Grace's suspicion.

"Well." He cleared his throat and said in an awkward voice, "You might not be able to accept it because it isn't the best idea. But it is simple."

"Go on. Then I'll decide," Celeste said.

He nodded once and said, "All you have to do is let me kiss you. If they see that your lips are swollen when you go down, all of their doubts will dissipate. It's that simple and the only way to solve this problem."

Hearing his suggestion, Celeste turned red.

Her face flushed and started burning in embarrassment.

Her head was hung low. It seemed like she had no other choice.

Gary smiled when he saw Celeste's expression. With an understanding tone of voice, he consoled her saying, "I know this isn't going to work. It's as if I am doing it intentionally to take advantage of you, but I don't mean it. If you refuse, we could just tell them we're fine."

She remained silent with her head low and her ears red.

It would make them seem intimate with each other, hence dissipating any doubt.s But then, it would only complicate things between them.

She was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

With that, she fell into a dilemma, not knowing what to do as she continued to stare at her toes.

Gary walked to his closet, not saying another word to Celeste.

He knew she would accept the proposal eventually as they had no other option.

He knew her too well after all.

Sure enough, she stopped him as he was about to head to the closet.

She said, "Okay. Let's go with your idea."

With his back facing her, he smiled.

He couldn't help but praise himself for knowing how to make her give in.

He would never let her know that there had been no one outside the door just now.

He would never tell anyone about that.

Gary stopped and turned his head to glance at Celeste.

"Alright. Should we wait? Or should we do it now?" he spoke gravely.

It was as if they were talking about a job or some other mundane task.

She didn't look back at him as she said carefully, "Get dressed first."

"Okay." He nodded. "I'll be right back."

With that, she waited for him to come back fully clothed.

At this time, her heart was already in chaos.

Her hands were restless from the uneasiness.

She knew that they shouldn't be doing this, but she couldn't think of another solution.

Since they would still be living under the same roof, she had to endure some things. She sighed, thinking about the kindness the Jones family had shown her.

She couldn't be an ungrateful person.

She had to persist so Grace wouldn't get upset and worried forthem during her pregnancy.

Celeste took a deep breath and waited for Gary to put on his clothes.

The man behind her was not anxious at all. He slowly took off his bath towel, wiped away the water from his body, and then picked up his clothes and putthem on.
