"Why did you bring Celeste here?" Gary asked gravely as soon as he saw Alex. "Where is she?"
"She's inside. Don't worry. From the sounds of it, Miss Celeste has the situation under control." Knowing that Celeste's meeting with Cindy was no trivial matter, he had secretly informed Gary about it. He did not expect Gary to arrive in two shakes.
Despite Alex's reassuring words, Gary was worried. He continued to frown.
He walked toward the door immediately.
"Master Gary, wait a minute," Alex called out.
Gary stopped in front of the door, hesitating.
At that moment, he heard Celeste's voice. "Do you think you can avoid seeing it by closing your eyes? Let me tell you, the answer is no. Even if you close your eyes, you can't alter the fact that you've become extremely hideous. The more you refuse to accept it, the more likely this image will be engraved in your memory. Moreover, you'll only get older, uglier, and more despicable."
