True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 1283

Celeste was stunned. She wanted to say no, but when she tried to tell him, her voice was a little hoarse, "I..."

"Celeste, no wonder you wanted to go to London suddenly. It turns out that it's not because of Ernest or me, but it's because of Liam. I seem to have forgotten that Liam and Cindy are from the entertainment industry. It's normal for you to know each other."

"No," Celeste tried to deny.

"You don't have to explain anything to me," Gary interrupted her lividly, "I need to congratulate you on becoming Liam's girlfriend."

If words could hurt, then Celeste was really hurt by what Gary said.

"Gary," Celeste herself was shocked by the news. Before she had time to think about what to do, Gary's explosive remarks in the early morning had made her head hurt even more.

Gary had flipped through his phone early in the morning and discovered the explosive news. It was on the front page.

Of course, he knew Liam's impact on the entertainment industry.

Even though the photo did not show Celeste clearly and only showed her back, Gary could tell with a single glance that it was Celeste.

His heart was in a mess.

All the assurance he had exploded at that moment. All of a sudden, he couldn't control himself and shouted at Celeste.

On the other end of the line, Gary's breathing was unstable. After shouting, his chest heaved and he couldn't help but cough.

When Celeste heard his cough, she was also dumbfounded. Despite being hurt, she couldn't help but worry again.

She waited until he finished coughing before asking, "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

"Isn't that the case?" Gary replied distantly.

"Of course not," Celeste tried to reason with him, "I know Liam, but I didn't do anything with him. I'm not his girlfriend. I'm only sixteen."

She wasn't?

Gary was stunned, but when he thought of the photos the reporters took showing Liam holding Celeste in his arms, he couldn't help but be angered. It felt like he was suffocating.

"So what if you're sixteen? Do you regret not being able to spend your nights with Liam since you're only sixteen? You can't wait to reach the age of eighteen, don't you?"

He couldn't hold back anymore and said those unpleasant words in a huff.

This insulted Celeste.

"Gary Smith," With teary eyes, she shouted into her phone, "You are being unreasonable."

"I'm being unreasonable?" Gary snickered, "Liam is so polite, unlike me, right? You're trying to be his girlfriend, aren't you?"

"I don't want to talk to you anymore," Celeste shot back, "I'm so disappointed in you."

After that, she hung up the phone.

When Gary saw that she had hung up, he was even angrier. The fury he was feeling just couldn't go away.

He was really going to go mad.

After Celeste hung up the phone, she immediately got up to wash up. She sorted herself out and prepared to call Liam. Before she could make a call, he had called her.

"Celeste, you shouldn't go to your language school today." "Is it because of the news?" Celeste asked straightforwardly.

"You saw it?" Liam didn't expect Celeste to see the news this early.

"Yes, I did," Celeste's tone was livid. No one could tell what she was feeling.

Liam pondered for a while and sighed, "Sorry, I've brought you so much trouble."

Celeste was slightly surprised. She didn't expect Liam to apologize. In fact, she was actually quite annoyed. Such a situation was a double-edged sword, and the tides could turn on her any moment now. She didn't want to be a target of the media because she only wanted to live a simple life.

"It's alright."

Out of courtesy, Celeste didn't blame him much.

"Celeste, you can't go to school anymore," Liam was afraid that he wouldn't be taken seriously, so he repeated himself, "You can probably go a few days later."

"I know," Celeste also had some experience. When she was with Cindy, she had also been photographed by accident. She said to Liam, "I'll change my hairstyle. I won't wear my previous clothes either." "That's good," Hearing that, a smile appeared on Liam's face as he heaved in relief, "Not bad."

"This is just a small storm, it'll be over soon right?"

"My team has been doing their best to settle this. Maybe a hotter topic will emerge and attract public attention away," Liam said, "In short, I will inform you when there's an update." "Alright," Celeste felt a bit helpless, but she also knew that she couldn't do much. All she could do was wait.

"Call me any time," After saying that, Liam hung up.

Celeste recomposed herself and opened the door quickly. She saw Maria, who was in a hurry, running out of her room with her hair disheveled and her phone in her hand.

As soon as she saw Celeste, Maria immediately took out her phone. She showed it to Celeste and stammered, "Ce- Celeste, l- look, photo... The sinews... you, you and Liam were mistaken as a couple."

It was not easy to finish what she wanted to say.

Celeste was afraid that Maria would misunderstand her, so she quickly explained, "I saw it, and yes, it is a misunderstanding. Liam just called me and told me not to go to school in case the paparazzi replaces me and makes a whole new fuss out of it."

Maria was stunned after hearing that Liam had called Celeste and said, "It's so early, yet you've already seen it."

"Yes," Celeste nodded, "So today, I'm going to replace a place and do a makeover."

"A makeover?"

"Yes. I'll buy some new clothes too and change my hairstyle completely."

"Agreed," Maria nodded repeatedly, "You should change your appearance. Those people can easily replace you using just a photograph of your back."

"Yes, I'm worried too," Celeste looked at Maria worriedly. A while later, she said softly, "Maria, please don't misunderstand us."

"Misunderstand?" Maria was stunned before shaking her head, "Misunderstand the relationship between you and Liam?"

"I'm just worried that you would misunderstand," Celeste explained, "I really have nothing to do with him. I just met him yesterday."

"I know," Maria quickly waved her hand and said with an assuring smile, "You don't have to be so nervous. I have a brain, and I'm not stupid. Don't worry, I believe you."

"That's good to hear," Celeste was really worried that Maria would misunderstand them. Even Gary was so angry that he had misunderstood her. If

Maria had the wrong idea about them, it would be even worse.

"Don't think too much. I'll go to the hairstylist with you," Maria comforted her, "In this situation, we can only wait and see. Fortunately, you live in London, not back in Northern City. If you were there, it would be a little problematic."

The two of them were discussing their plans in the corridor when the door to Ernest's room opened.

He stood at the door and shot the two girls a look before saying, "It seems that you have read the news and made some plans."

"You saw it too?" Maria looked at Ernest and asked, "Do you have any suggestions?"

Ernest looked at Celeste, his gaze sweeping across her face.

The expression on Celeste's face was full of worry.

"First of all, we all know it's a misunderstanding," Ernest started.

"Of course, we all know," Maria nodded.

"But those blind fans don't," Ernest was rational and speculated, "Liam has always had some irrational fans. And as far as I know, there are a lot of them." "So? "We can't risk Celeste getting found out," Ernest answered.

"That's obvious," Maria agreed, "If she was found out, those fans wouldn't listen to her even if it is a misunderstanding. They may really fly to London to teach her a lesson." "So to be Liam's girlfriend, you have to have a strong heart and stronger background. Otherwise, you will only be torn apart by his fans," Ernest suggested meaningfully. Maria pursed her lips and her expression was a little stiff.

She knew Ernest was right.

"That's about Liam. We have to solve Celeste's problem now," Maria changed the subject and didn't answer him.

Ernest shrugged, "That's why I'm not going to school today. I'll accompany you guys to the hairstylist and help you guys get a makeover."

"Do you also agree with Celeste's idea?"

"What else can we do?" Ernest asked in reply.

Maria smiled happily and said, "Then let's have breakfast and go to the hairstylist. Today, let's take a break together."

Before the three of them went downstairs, Celeste received a phone call from Liam again.

"Celeste, Ms. White is in London. I'll ask someone to pick you up. You should get ready and come over to meet Ms. White."

"My aunt?" Celeste was surprised.

"Yes, that's right."
