True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2143

Gary was still a little moved when he heard those things being said without him present.

Grace was even more surprised that her daughter would have such an understanding view.

All of a sudden, Grace was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time.

Seeing that Grace wasn't speaking at all, Sylvia supposed that she was in agreement with herself, or at least with part of it.

"Celeste didn't grow up in the same environment as you did," Grace finally still spoke, "So you all should be more forgiving towards her."

"Mom." Sylvia looked up and said in a low tone, "Is it okay to let Gary suffer like that then?"

"Gary is the initiator of everything after all." Grace did not try to favor her son. "He has to take at least half of the responsibility on this matter."

"However, I think she should fight alongside with him. She knew that he got tricked, yet she still chose to leave just like that. Isn't it too much?" "Sylvia," said Grace in a much more serious tone.

"You're a girl as well."

Grace wanted to remind her daughter that as a girl, she should view the matter in the other person's perspective.

"It's specifically because I'm also a girl myself, and that's why I think she isn't putting in enough effort for his sake," Sylvia said gently, "To be frank, I just think that this shows that Gary loves her more than she does."

Perhaps it was ironic that the one who loved the other more was always the person who'd get hurt the most.

That was why she could not bear to see her brother looking so sorrowful.

"Eat up," Grace said, "Some things are not as simple as it seems from the surface."

"If Celeste was here, I would've also told her all these." Sylvia finished her sentence and continued eating in silence.

Gary, who was at the stairs, was pursing his lips. He wanted to go downstairs initially, yet he remained there on the stairs after listening to their conversation. He hesitated for a bit and turned back into his room.

The ones involved would always be blinded from the facts, and the bystanders could always see the fact so clearly.

Perhaps Sylvia could see it so clearly. In the relationship, it was himself that was the most in love.

However, Celeste didn't believe him.

Gary felt deeply remorseful because of that. He felt that it was his own responsibility and that he didn't make Celeste feel secured enough when she was by his side.

He kept her in fear all the time.

He returned to his room and stayed there for a while. He waited for Sylvia to go back to her room and then he went over.

He knocked on the door first and heard Sylvia's voice. "Who is it?"

"It's me," Gary said in a deep voice.

"Gary?"

The door opened as he heard her puzzled tone.

Sylvia looked at Gary in surprise. When she saw his bloodshot eyes, she was stunned. "Are you looking for me?"

"Can I come in?" Gary raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, you can." Sylvia turned over and walked back in.

Gary followed her in and closed the door behind.

He looked around the room and found that his

sister seemed to be studying hard.

"Do you still have to study on Spring Festival Eve?" "Yes." Sylvia nodded and sat back down on her desk. She said, "From now on, I'll strive hard to be a top scorer and catch up with Sebastian."

"Sylvia." Gary's heart ached for his sister. "In fact, you don't have to work that hard."
