Chapter 2013 The Four Children of the Jones Family, Gary Smith (Part 788)

......

Gary really couldn't hold it in any longer. He wanted to say something and make Janice regret her choice of words.

But then, he knew he shouldn't do anything to make Celeste even angrier with him. He was already at fault in this.

Once again, he swallowed back those words and fell silent. 

Celeste said over the phone, "How are you so sure about this when you don't have anything left to bargain with? Could it be that you still think you can hold something against us?"

"Gary made a promise with me," Janice said, "Gary promised to be my boyfriend in two months time."

Celeste's only response was a twitch of her lips, as though she was not at all affected by this. 

She believed that Gary only made this promise with Janice because of Lowell.

"If he promised to be your boyfriend, why does he have to wait until two months later?" Celeste questioned sharply.
