Chapter 192

Celeste brought her laptop and went with Matthias to have dinner at Zachary’s home.

After dinner, Zachary helped her review her thesis.

It was late at night when she got into the car to head home. At that moment, Adeline called.

She had originally booked tickets for the next day to take her two kids on a one–day cruise trip, but something had come up at her family’s side, and she had to go back, meaning she wouldn’t be able to take care of the kids.
