True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 1409

Celeste pouted. It was all because of him.

"You were so absent-minded just now that you even forgot to breathe. Now you are distracted once again. Do you want me to continue performing mouth- to- mouth resuscitation on you?"

"No, I don't," She immediately retorted, "I wasn't distracted at all."

"Then come and eat," Gary said.

Celeste did not move.

Gary paused and he suddenly bent down to pick her up.

"Let go of me," She was startled. He really liked doing things his way without getting consent from others.

"You aren't walking because of the pain. You just want me to hold you, don't you?"

"No," Celeste was no longer in any pain, but Gary did not seem to believe her, "I can walk on my own."

"Forget it. What if it hurts again?" He picked her up and said gently.

Celeste looked up slightly at Gary who was in front of her.

Coincidentally, their eyes met.

Her emotions rippled through her heart. She felt flustered for some reason, as if someone had caught them in the act red-handed.

Gary had never been so cowardly before in his entire life. Similarly, he had never really allowed someone to step over his whole heart. Celeste was the only one.

He looked at her reddened cheeks and her stubbornness that overflowed as she pouted in dissatisfaction. His eyes narrowed, and the emotions he tried so hard to suppress came rushing back to him once more.

D*mn it, he would get out of control whenever he met Celeste.

Gary did not regret studying alone without her at all. He was afraid that if he could not control himself back then, he would have done something forbidden.

However, this was not what Celeste believed. She believed that he had no feelings for her, and that whatever Gary was doing was only a product of his instincts.

If there was no attraction between them, where did the feelings they have for each other come from?

Gary sighed slightly. It looked like it was impossible for them to not quarrel with each other in the near future. At the very least, this looked like this would be the case for a long time.

As of then, he wasn't sure if he could hold himself back from throwing a temper.

He could only try and be patient as he grew up with her.

After putting down Celeste on the sofa, Gary sat down as well and said, "Here's some hot milk, but it's already warm now. Do you want me to heat it up again?"

"There's no need to," Celeste shook her head.

"Can you drink cold milk?" He raised an eyebrow at her.

"It's warm," Celeste took the cup of milk and felt the temperature. It was still warm. She added, "It's not cold."

"There's a microwave in the hotel, you can heat it up," As Gary spoke, he opened another box. There was a seafood pizza sitting inside.

He touched it and found that the pizza had already cooled down. Hence, he got up to heat it up.

Gary opened the small hatch to the microwave and walked back. Then, he opened all the boxed food and checked the temperature of the food.

Celeste watched as he tidied up all the stuff calmly. His hands were slender yet agile. She couldn't help but sigh.

It seemed that his hands were really powerful. Not only could they make her lose her mind, they could also comfort her and even serve her food.

She drank the milk one mouthful at a time until she finished all the milk, and her stomach became a little more comfortable.

The milk she drank stained the area around her red lips. It formed a little white wreath around her mouth, making her look as though she had grown an adorable white beard.

When Gary came back with the pizza, he saw Celeste staring at him. Her big watery eyes coupled with her little milky beard made her look very cute.

He narrowed his eyes, put down the pizza, and sat next to her.

They were very close to each other.

Celeste shifted slightly and leaned back a little.

However, Gary followed her movements and forcefully sat closer to her.

Celeste had no choice but to keep moving backwards. She kept moving until she was leaning completely against the sofa and there was no way to retreat.

"There's milk on your mouth," Gary said.

Celeste looked at him awkwardly and wanted to reach for the tissue, but he said, "I'll wipe it for you."

She bit her lips and blinked at him. She was a little suspicious of his motives, so she really wanted to refuse his advances.

Then, she stuck out her tongue and licked the area around her lower lip, trying to clean up all the milk stains.

However, this action seemed to be quite seductive from Gary's point of view.

His voice was hoarse as he ordered, "Close your eyes."

Celeste was startled.

Gary cupped her face and lowered his face towards her, licking away the stains on her mouth with his tongue.

Celeste was so frightened that she closed her eyes.

However, her heart was beating wildly.

When Gary saw her close her eyes, the corners of his lips lifted slightly as a smile flitted across his eyes.

It seemed that he was really being too anxious before.

Celeste liked him like this.
