True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 1399

Celeste was hurt and shed a little bit of blood, so it was natural that she needed some sanitary pads.

Just now at the clinic, the doctor gave her a piece to use for the time being. She came to Edinburgh quite urgently, so she did not bring any with her and planned to buy them after she arrived here. However, she did not expect that she would get hurt like this before her menstruation came.

She felt really awkward when the doctor had to examine her.

Currently, Celeste felt very uncomfortable. Every single step she took was painful and unbearable. She was in extreme discomfort, and the piercing pain felt like she was being constantly cut by a knife.

The hurt and grievance she felt gushed into her heart, making her feel even more upset.

When the doctor examined her, she immediately knew that Celeste's boyfriend had been too rough with her. Right there and then, the doctor had advised Celeste to break up.

From the doctor's point of view, this boyfriend of hers was a jerk. If a man was not gentle to a woman, it meant that he did not love her.

Indeed.

Celeste also felt that Gary did not love her anymore. He only wanted to possess her and did not have any other feelings for her.

However, there were some moments where she felt like he truly cherished and cared for her.

Perhaps she was longing for warmth, so even a little bit of attention would make her feel very warm and satisfied.

However, this time, she was hurt really badly.

She told the doctor that they had already broken up for good after this.

The doctor wanted to make a police report, but she stopped her.

This was a matter between the two of them. Celeste could break up with him, but she would not let the police take him away.

If that happened, how could she bring herself to face Uncle Jones and Aunt Grace? They were so kind to her, so she couldn't allow their son to be detained by the police. She might turn him into a criminal, who will be labelled as an abuser for the rest of his life. She did not want to ruin his reputation nor his life.

Hence, Celeste only told the doctor that it was their first time doing it. Hence, Gary had no idea how to go about things.

After being stunned for some time, the doctor eventually chose to respect her decision.

"I'll go buy it. Wait for me in the car," Gary said gently, "Don't go anywhere."

Well, where else could she go?

Celeste could not move on her own. She did not want to risk her safety to look for a cab. Hence, she agreed, "I won't leave. Please go and buy it."

What she needed was a moment of quiet and rest.

Gary was not sure if she was lying as he stared at her intently. He noticed that her face was still extremely pale, and the corners of her eyes were still damp because of the tears she shed just moments ago. She looked very weak and sickly.

He was the culprit behind this. For the first time, he realised that he had been behaving like a beast. He blamed himself and felt really sorry for her.

Yet, he couldn't help it. When Celeste was lying down in front of him, he couldn't control himself.

He couldn't stand the fact that he did not have a place in her heart.

This was his way of doing things. Even if he was being unreasonable, he wanted Celeste to himself no matter what.

Subconsciously, Celeste belonged to him. She would belong to him no matter what for the rest of her life.

Gary could not let her go.

He drove Celeste to find a sundry shop.

When he arrived at a rather good convenience store, he parked the car and went in to buy Celeste some sanitary pads.

After entering, the shopkeeper asked Gary, "Sir, may I know what you are looking for?"

He said, "Sanitary pads,"

Then the shopkeeper continued to ask him, "Sir, what type of pads do you need? Is it for day use, or overnight use? What size does your girlfriend normally use?"

Gary paused for a moment after hearing all the questions.

He looked at the shopkeeper with a dazed look on his face and said, "Sorry, let me ask her about it." "Okay," The shopkeeper smiled at him in a friendly way, seemingly complimenting him for buying sanitary pads for his girlfriend.

Gary felt even more embarrassed. He walked out and went to the side of the car.

Celeste's eyes flashed with disappointment when she saw that Gary had returned empty- handed. True, Gary was always so full of himself. How could he possibly suppress his pride to buy sanitary pads for her?

If he returned empty-handed, she would feel really disappointed.

Enduring the pain, Celeste opened the car door and wanted to get out.

Gary quickly took a step forward. Before she managed to get out of the car, he looked at her and asked, "Why do you want to leave? Do you need to use the toilet?"

"I'll go and buy them myself," Celeste muttered and completely ignored Gary. She planned to go and buy them herself.

"I will buy them," Gary quickly stopped her, "Don't get out of the car."

Celeste paused for a while and she did not look at him. She answered, "Forget it. If you don't feel like buying them, I can buy them myself."
