Celeste blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.
She looked at Gary in embarrassment.
Gary looked at her blushing face and smiled. He leaned closer to her and said, "You got her pretty good. That's my girl."
Celeste became even shyer.
She was really pissed off at the way Mrs. Wells spoke to Leah.
She didn't expect Gary to hear what she said. She smiled sheepishly. "I was mad at the way she yelled at Celeste. She's the one who asked for trouble but she's blaming it on others. How infuriating."
"It's fine, honestly." Gary did not mind it at all.
'TH treat all of you to a meal." Leah cut in with a nonchalant tone. "Celeste was truly bada*s just now. Thank you both."
Leah was quite touched.
Celeste helped stop Mrs. Wells from hitting her.

In fact, both brothers understood the meaning of Leah's words.
Ernest also understood that Leah had let go of her earlier misgivings about Celeste.
Leah had finally managed to put aside the fact that Ernest once had feelings for Celeste.
Ernest secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't expect Leah to let it go so easily.
Gary noticed that Ernest was silent and that Celeste was blushing. Furthermore, Leah was grinning brightly, so he said, "What do you mean by in the future? We're already in-laws."
"Right, you're right, Gary. We are." Leah chuckled in response.
The atmosphere was very lively.
They went to the police station to give their statements.
Of course, Grace and Heinz soon found out about this matter.
They immediately called Ernest and told him to bring Leah home with him.
