......
Upon hearing this, Gary was alarmed. He felt that there was more to Celeste's words.
His eye drooped, losing all tenderness. Did this mean that Celeste had thoughts of leaving?
His heart skipped a beat as he scrutinized her.
Meanwhile, Celeste wore a calm smile.
Nothing looked strange, but he was still flustered from her earlier words.
His gut was telling him that she had intended to back out of the situation.
Was this what she wanted? Had she thought it through?
She saw the complex look in his eyes and the change of expression on his face. He looked conflicted.
Right then, she was testing what decision he would make.
Would he tell her what he was planning to do with her?
Seeing how pale he was, Celeste started to grow anxious.
It seemed that Janice's words were not baseless, and Gary wanted to break up with her.
A breakup, huh?
She forced a smile and looked down at her lap.
