True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 1238
"Alright fine, go ahead," Heinz was also helpless. "I just want to take a look. What's the big deal?"
"Don't even think of peeking."
"Alright." Even though he felt aggrieved, he didn't want to go against his wife.
She was always right.
Grace went down in a matter of moments, but Celeste had yet to arrive.
She hurried into the kitchen and asked them to prepare some beverages and desserts.
When everything was finally dealt with, she called Gary.
However, his phone was still switched off.
She was taken aback. Why did he switch off his phone?
Did Celeste come because his phone was switched off?
She was not certain where Gary went. Therefore, Grace gave Alice a call.
The call was connected instantly.
"Grace?"
"Alice, is Gary with you?"
"No, he isn't."
"Are you at home or at the office?"
"I'm at home. Baby Winter is not feeling too well today. I took her to the doctors."
"What's wrong with baby Winter?" When Grace heard that her niece was not feeling well, she also became worried.
"She doesn't have much appetite, and she has a mild cough. I took her to perform a blood test."
"Is she alright?"
"The doctor said it's not something serious. It's just an allergic cough."
"Oh, that's good."
Alice had two children now. The eldest was a son, and the younger one was a daughter, and her relationship with Jensen had become very stable.
This was the best ending.
Grace was also very pleased.
"Did something happen to Gary?" Alice was also a little worried about Gary. "What's going on?"
"He's preparing to go abroad. He didn't attend school today, and a female classmate of his came looking for him. I couldn't reach him." "Going abroad? A female classmate?" Alice was dumbfounded. "Grace, does Gary have a girlfriend?"
"How I wish to be the case." Grace said, "But I don't think it's possible. Most girls wouldn't be able to stand his temper."
"Nonsense, Grace." Alice chuckled. "Gary has such a handsome face. Nowadays, girls are all attracted to good-looking guys; they wouldn't care about anything else. Sure he likes to act a little arrogant, but young girls like guys who act cool."
"Are you sure?" Grace asked without confidence.
"Think about it. Heinz also had a bad temper in the past, and he didn't treat you very well either. But look how things ended up? He dotes on you so much." Alice enlightened her sister, " Don't worry too much. I'll go and ask Jensen and see if he can replace him."
"All right."
As soon as she hung up, she heard the butler's voice at the door. "Miss White, please come in."
"Thank you."
She had arrived.
Grace suddenly felt anxious. What if this girl was her future daughter-in-law?
Who was to say she wouldn't be?
Just as she was deep in thought, someone had already entered the house.
The butler led a young girl into the living room. The girl was tall, slender, and she had a height of at least 168 centimeters. Furthermore, she looked very innocent.
She was wearing a white hoodie and had a backpack on her back; it made her look young and beautiful.
As soon as she came in, Celeste saw a lady standing in the hall with a slight smile, and she was immediately surprised by her beautiful appearance.
She smiled gently in return as well.
"Miss White, this is Master Gary's mother, Mrs. Jones."
"Nice to meet you, auntie." Celeste immediately introduced herself, "I'm Celeste, Gary and Ernest's classmate."
"Celeste, have a seat." Grace greeted her enthusiastically. "Welcome."
"Thank you, auntie." Celeste sat on the sofa.
Grace sat down and looked at Celeste with a smile, thinking that this girl was really gorgeous.
She had an elegant long neck, and her skin was fair and smooth. Her clothes were simple but cute.
Meanwhile, the servants served the beverages and desserts.
"Auntie, there's no need to give me such a warm welcome. I'll leave after I have a chat with Gary." Celeste felt rather embarrassed when she saw the snacks being served. "Don't worry, dine with us before you leave," said Grace. "Come, eat some fruit first."
"Thank you, auntie," However, Celeste didn't eat the fruits. Instead, she asked, "Auntie, you couldn't get in touch with Gary either, could you?"
"He turned his phone off. I have no idea where he went in such an early morning. No matter. He'll be back soon."
"Alright." Celeste nodded. When she saw Grace's gentle smile, she felt a sense of warmth. Perhaps she could tell her her worries? Perhaps his mother could persuade him?
Therefore, Celeste mustered all her courage and said to Grace, "Auntie, the reason I came is to convince Gary to go to the United States with Ernest and me. Now, Ernest is going to England, and my initial plan was to go to the United States. However, I found out that Gary forced Ernest to go to England. So, I was hoping to persuade him to follow us and study in the United States. This way, all of us can take care of each other."
Hearing Celeste's words, Grace was stupefied for a moment and found it a little hard to believe. "Did you say that Ernest didn't plan to go to England of his free will?"
Celeste was also taken aback by the question and explained quickly, "Ernest is willing to go to England now. It's just that I initially heard that they would go to the United States together, and I also feel it is better this way. After all, we are just sixteen, and it's better if we have each other's back. Moreover, they are twins, so it's better if they are not separated."
"Celeste, this is the first time I'm hearing this. So it's Gary's idea to be separated from his brother. I am truly shaken to my core. Do you have any idea why this would happen?"
Celeste was also puzzled. "I don't know why, but I truly hope that we can go to the United States together."
"So you hope that they could study in the United States with you?" Grace made a hasty assumption. "Initially, you and Gary were supposed to go to the United States, and Ernest was going to England, but then you realized that he was not doing this of his own free will."
"That's right." "Okay, I'll ask them myself. I also wish that they could accompany each other since I will not be by their side. It's a foreign country, after all; it's definitely better if they could go together." "Yes, auntie. I agree." Celeste smiled and said, "So you've agreed to help me persuade Gary?"
"Why don't you persuade Ernest?" Grace asked, "I think it is better to persuade him to go to the United States."
"I tried, but he said that he wanted to go to England. I feel that Gary was the first one to make this choice. Thus I want to persuade him to ask Ernest to come along."
"Did they fight?" Grace was flabbergasted once again.
"I don't know. I don't think so." Celeste shook her head.
"Alright. Don't worry. Let's wait for Gary to come home first."
"Okay, auntie."
After waiting for about half an hour, Gary returned.
He rushed home. He saw Celeste and his mother seated on the sofa having a casual conversation when he swung open the door.
Gary's eyes narrowed, and an imperceptible hint of panic flashed across his eyes.
