He Gave Her Strawberries, Gave Me Hives (Ford and Sylvia) novel Chapter 83

Mia stepped out, shot Celeste a venomous glare, then walked right up to them and linked arms with Desmond on one side and Stella on the other.

‘Desmond, Stella, you’re finally here!” Mia said, deliberately ignoring Celeste as she led them inside.

Desmond glanced at Celeste and explained, “Celeste, we’re about to get married. Mia will be your little sister soon, so don’t hold things against her. Stella wasn’t comfortable staying at the estate by herself, so I asked her to come back.”

‘As long as you’re happy,” Celeste said flatly. None of this had anything to do with her anymore.

The second her documents arrived, she was gone.

Celeste entered the estate first and was immediately summoned to the study by Grandpa Hart.

Grandpa was grateful to Celeste for saving his family’s most brilliant heir.

le offered her one percent of the Hart Corporation’s shares.

Thank you for your generosity, Grandpa, but I don’t want anything. There’s just one favor I need to ask of you.”

I’m not going to marry Desmond. I’m leaving on the day of the wedding, and I hope you’ll stop him from looking for me.” Celeste said, her expression perfectly alm.

Desmond wouldn’t let her go easily, but if she could successfully join Doctors Without Borders and get out of the country, it would be much harder for him to ind her.

Grandpa Hart stared at her for a few long moments. “Are you sure about this?”

he nodded firmly.

By the time Celeste came out of the study, it was already past lunchtime.

Desmond had gone back to the office.

tella and Mia were sitting in the living room, eating fruit and gossiping.

They were laughing and chatting away, but when they saw Celeste approach, they both stopped and looked up at her in unison.

Some people have no shame, even lying to old men. I wonder what kind of tricks she pulled to suck up to Grandpa this time.” Mia said with a sneer.

Celeste didn’t even spare her a glance and continued walking toward the door. Mia immediately jumped up to block her path.

Celeste Reese, I’m talking to you! Where are your manners?”

Oh, that’s right, I forgot. Your own mother didn’t even want you. How could you possibly have any manners? Hahaha.” Mia said, quickly covering her mouth as f she’d let it slip by accident.

Stella quickly tugged on Mia’s sleeve and whispered, “Mia, stop it. Have you already forgotten what happened last time?”

“She won’t hold back when she hits you.”

Mia flew into a rage, grabbing a nearby vase and smashing it on the floor, Shards of porcelain went flying, one of them slicing open celeste’s leg.

“This is the Hart family home! Some outsider has no right to be so arrogant here. Besides, I’m not wrong. Celeste Reese is just an unwanted bastard. Mia

shouted.

Celeste had planned on ignoring her, but Mia took her silence as a sign of weakness and became even more aggressive.

“You’re just a desperate bitch! Even if you do marry into this family, you’ll still be lower than a servant!”

Celeste hesitated for a second before raising her hand and slapping Mia across the face. “Grandpa said that from now on, I am the matriarch of the Hart family. If you disrespect me, I have every right to discipline you.”

“Bitch, are you insane?! How dare you hit me in my own house!” Mia tried to strike back, but Celeste grabbed her wrist and shoved her away.
