Chapter 1301 The Four Children Of The Jones Family, Gary Smith (Part 76)

......

Celeste stayed at the hotel for the time being.

After agreeing to help Celeste deal with the matter, Alex arranged for Celeste to stay in the hotel. Then, he contacted a lawyer to make some legal inquiries. 

When Ernest left, he comforted Celeste and told her not to leave. Then, he told Alex to increase hotel security. This was to ensure that Celeste would not leave on her own. 

With that, Celeste managed to stay in the hotel.

Alex soon got in touch with a lawyer. Overnight, he managed to inquire about various issues regarding becoming an underaged teenager's guardian. 

That night, Ernest returned home. Before he entered the house, he saw his mother waiting for him at the door with an anxious look on her face.

There was a flash of guilt on his face. He didn't say where he was going, which probably made his mom worried. 

"Mommy, I'm back. Sorry for making you worried."

Ernest spoke first.
