Chapter 1408
"I''m just grabbing the paper towel," Gary''s voice rang softly in Celeste''s ear, "You ced them on
the bed."
Oh, so that was the case.
As expected, he reached out and grabbed a paper towel. He ced one hand on her right and
lowered his head to look at Celeste.
Celeste looked at his stern and determined handsome face with her big eyes.
Gary admitted that he was genuinely just grabbing a paper towel because it was ced in an
inconvenient spot. He was afraid that he would hurt Celeste, so he could only reach out in such a
way to take it.
However, he didn''t expect his actions to change the atmosphere.
Her frightened expression was reflected in his eyes, and her cheeks were pink like blossoms in
spring.
Her long eyshes were trembling slightly, which made her look frail..
When he touched her, Gary couldn''t bear it anymore. He just wanted to hold her in his arms forever
and never let anyone see her again.
He lowered his head slightly and stroked her face gently.
Celeste did not dare to speak.
She smelled the faint aroma of the medication on his slender fingers. She felt that the smell was
about to seep into her pores and make her senses explode.
Gary''s deep eyes were locked onto Celeste''s, not missing a single change of her expression.
She forgot to breathe.
Then, Celeste''s face turned even redder.
Gary lowered his head even further. As he exhaled, his breathnded on Celeste''s face. He noticed
that she had not taken a breath.
He couldn''t help grinning, "If you don''t breathe, do you want me to end up doing CPR for you?"
Meanwhile, Celeste''s mind was in a state of chaos.
She waspletely confused.
She didn''t know what he was talking about.
That was because she was suffering the whole time. Every inch of her soul felt like it was no longer
hers.
Celeste had long lost her sense of reason. After more than half an hour of torture, she had long
been hollowed out. She was still holding her breath even then.
"Open your mouth," Gary''s finger traced the outline of her lips as he muttered, "If you don''t open
your mouth to take in some air, you''ll faint."
Gary saw that her face had grown even redder. It was definitely not just a blush. The redness was
caused by herck of oxygen.
However, his hand was still stroking her chin and lips.
There was only one thought in Celeste''s mind. Gary actually touched her chin with his finger that
had been stained with the medication, and he did it on purpose.
Just when she thought she was about to suffocate, everything went ck in front of her eyes and
there was a hot sensation on her lips. She felt air entering her body. In an instant, her mind felt
clearer and she was able to think.
She took in a deep breath subconsciously. She breathed in with all her might, sucking in oxygen.
s, the oxygen given was insufficient.
She could only takerge mouthfuls of it.
Gary''s eyes were sharp. He held her tightly, giving her more oxygen.
It was not until a long timeter when Celeste came back to her senses and realized how awkward
it was.
She had actually wrapped her arms around Gary''s neck and her legs were wrapped around Gary''s
waist. When she realized it, there was a moment of silence hanging between them.
She immediately withdrew her hand and curled back her feet.
However, Gary stopped her.
He lowered his voice to ask her, "What should I do? I''m saving you, but you try to take me instead."
His tone was deep and low, and his dark eyes were filled with a faint smile and a tint of
selfconfidence.
It was as if the confident and egotistical Gary had returned.
He was no longer despondent.
Celeste was embarrassed that she didn''t know what to say. She could only watch as her emotions
slowly revealed themselves, which made her feel so embarrassed.
She threw caution to the wind and withdrew her legs.
Nevertheless, Gary still put them back to their original position with a cold smirk, "It was you who
started it."
Celeste retorted, "I didn''t. You were the one who seduced me."
Hahaha.
She was quite honest.
He admitted that he indeed tried to do that.
It seemed that he needed to adjust his thought process. If he didn''te up with a n, this
adorable woman would slip away from his fingers.
Of course, Gary wouldn''t allow that to happen.
As he looked at Celeste, his icy gaze became absolutely bewitching. With a slight smile, he lowered
his head and kissed her once again.
Celeste was shocked. She reached out and tried to push him away.
"Don''t move. I feel dizzy," He suddenly said.
Celeste paused for a moment, only to hear Gary continue, "You just sucked all my oxygen away. I''m
dizzy now, so it''s your turn to save me."N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
A low voice rang in her ear, and warm breathing appeared at the corner of her lips. Celeste felt as if
something had exploded in her mind and snatched away all shred of rationale she had. By the time
she had woken up, Gary had already deepened the kiss with her.
Her heart was beating wildly, as if she had a heart attack. It thumped loudly against her chest.
What was even more embarrassing was that she could not find any strength to push him away.
A long time passed.
She felt a pain in her lower abdomen, which made her frown.
Gary immediately sensed it. He looked at her and asked, "What''s wrong?"
"I-1..." Celeste blushed and stuttered softly, "I think my menstruation period hase."
Judging by her calctions, it was almost the time of the month.
Gary was startled. He lowered his head and looked over. A regretful expression shed across his
handsome face as he softly said, "It is indeed your period."
Celeste stood up and ran to the bathroom.
She looked embarrassed.
She felt that she had been blinded by something. She was so close to him that she almost did
something that could only be done between lovers.
What the hell was she doing?
Gary watched Celeste as she left. Something shed across his eyes. He then put away the
medicine, straightened out the bed sheets and sat down quietly.
Celeste stayed in the bathroom for about three minutes before she came out.
The atmosphere was even more awkward between them.
After the quarrel, the breakup and theck of oxygen, she had aplicated feeling now.
Celeste took a nce at Gary.
He was calm. When she came out and did not dare to look at him, he was still quiteposed as
he looked at Celeste.
This time, Gary was still rational.
He got up and went to the bathroom.
He stayed in the bathroom for about ten minutes.
Celeste didn''t know what he was doing. Suddenly, she heard a muffled groan from the bathroom.
She was startled and thought that something was wrong with him. She quickly ran over and shouted
anxiously at the door, "Gary, what''s wrong?"
There was no sounding from inside.
Celeste didn''t understand and didn''t know if something had happened to him. The groan sounded
abnormal.
She immediately pushed the door open.
The scene in front of her stunned her.
Gary was leaning against the sink with a hand full of paper towels.
She immediately turned away as the scene was too obscene for her, stammering, "Ho-how could
you do this?"
Gary was embarrassed as well. He nced at her with narrowed eyes and said, "What else can I
do? Can you help me?"
Celeste''s face turned even redder, "I thought you fell in the bathroom. Who knows what happened
when you didn''t respond at all?"
Gary casually threw the tissue into the toilet bowl and washed his hands.
His hand looked like it belonged to a model''s. It was very slender, with distinct joints and bony
fingers.
He slowly ran his hands under the tap water, washing them thoroughly.
Celeste stood in silence. Seeing him wash his hands just like that made her forget to leave.
It wasn''t until Gary turned and looked at her that Celeste realized that she seemed to have forgotten
something.
She left quickly and went back to the bed. She didn''t know if it was because she had been tortured
by him so much that she couldn''t feel the pain at the moment.
When her menstruation came, she heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed that her previous calctions were right. Previously, when they were together, he took
measures to ensure that she was not pregnant. Thank God forthat.
By the time Gary came out, everything had returned to normal.
Celeste nced at him and noticed that there was still a little bit of redness on his face. It was
probably because he had been inside for a long time that his face had turned red.
She was embarrassed to see such a scene.
She couldn''t help but curl her lips. She really didn''t know how he got along with her in the past. He
was at an age when he was the most impulsive. Without a girlfriend to live together, did he always
do this all the time?
Would he not be able to hold himself back even after returning to Boston?
The more Celeste thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Why was she thinking about
this?
This was Gary''s problem. No matter what, it was his own business. It had nothing to do with her
anymore.
"Yes, it doesn''t matter now." She mused.
However, when she thought that it was not a big deal, her heart grew heavy.
Gary went to open the takeaway boxes and said to Celeste, "Come over and eat."
Celeste did not move. It was as if she was immersed in her own world.
Gary frowned and walked over. He crouched down and looked at Celeste.
She was startled by his sudden approach. Turning her head sideways to look at him, she asked,
"What''s the matter?"
Gary''s handsome face was right in front of her. She could even see his smooth skin clearly. His
pores were very fine and his longshes were thick. They were as long as a small brush, and even
more beautiful than a woman''s.
She suddenly shifted her eyes away and did not dare to look at him anymore.
"I said it was time to eat. Didn''t you hear me?" Gary straightened his body slightly and said in a gruff
and hoarse voice, "Why do you always get distracted?"
