All Out Of Love novel Chapter 3

"Yes, sir!"

Grace nodded, maintaining a calm composure.

"You!"

The expression on Celia's face changed abruptly, as she did not expect this man to treat her in this way.

The maids and the people working for him had nothing to do with her and she didn't want them to suffer because of her.

"If you don't want people to suffer, just do as I say!"

His voice was as cold as ice. After a while, he glanced at her once and then walked towards the door without uttering another word.

Celia didn't let go of the quilt until she was sure that the door had been closed shut and the sound of footsteps had faded away.

"Mr. Carlos may have a bad temper, but don't forget the fact that he completely ignored what you did to him and his bedroom." Please don't give him any more reasons to be angry, Miss Ling. Please just quickly change your clothes and go downstairs."

Grace completely disregarded Celia's reluctance and walked towards her calmly.

"What? You mean, this is his bedroom?"

Celia looked around in awe.

The luxurious crystal lamps, white and pink curtains, the white sofa, a heart-shaped cushion and fluffy dolls. Even the expensive ornaments were pleasantly feminine.

If that man didn't have some eccentricity, why would he choose to live in such a room that was best suited for a girl?

In any case, Grace wouldn't give her an explanation either way.

When she noticed that Celia was standing there motionless, Grace tried to take off her clothes.

"No, I'll do it myself." Celia stopped her immediately. Soon after, something struck her and she turned to look at Grace.

"Well, Would you please wait for me outside? I'll be out when I'm done changing."

Grace, however, stood there like a statue.

The woman did not blink her eyes even once.

"You can relax! I'm not going to try to run away again." Celia almost raised her left hand to make a promise.

"No one, not even I, can disobey Mr. Gu's orders!"

Celia grunted, seemingly frustrated.

In spite of her reluctance and discomfort, Celia eventually changed her clothes.

When she finally arrived at the restaurant, Carlos was not there yet.

Sitting alone at the big dining table, Celia never felt more out of place in her entire life.

Celia was in no mood to eat at all, but clearly her opinions mattered very little to Carlos. She didn't have a cellphone, in fact, she wasn't even allowed to carry a handbag anymore. She had been completely cut off from the outside world.

"Miss, please enjoy your meal."

Grace's voice brought Celia's mind back to reality.

She managed to eat a few spoonfuls when suddenly a photo shown on the TV caught her attention.

Celia dropped the chopsticks on the table and turned to face Grace.

"Where is Mr. Gu? I need to see him now! Grace, will you please take me him?"

Celia ran towards Grace and begged, grabbing her arm.

"I am sorry, miss. I can't do anything without Mr. Gu's order!"

Grace's cold, robotic demeanor was utterly exasperating.

Celia looked at the screen again, gritting her teeth in anger.

"Can you at least let him know that I need to see him? I'm not going anywhere from here until he is willing to see me."

She crossed her arms across her chest with a defiant look and sat down again.

Grace glanced at her, and shook her head before going into the living room.

After a while, there was still no word from neither Carlos nor Grace. Celia sat there and waited for them patiently.

But as hours passed and time slowly ticked away like eternity, Celia began to lose hope.

"Boss, Grace said that Miss Ling..."
