True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 1351

Gary raised his eyebrows as he looked at her in confusion as her whole face was blushing. He then called out in a low and hoarse voice, "Celeste?"

How was he supposed to carry her if she kept on stopping him from doing so?

Celeste was both annoyed and embarrassed, and she felt really shy.

She felt that it wasn't appropriate for him to hold her while she was nude.

She became even more anxious that her face turned red. That only made Gary even more attracted to her.

"Stop dawdling around. You've been wasting more than 20 minutes."

As Gary said that, he took Celeste's hand and held it with his other hand. Then, he reached below her arms and lifted her up almost effortlessly. With one swift move, he managed to place her gently into the bathtub.

The warm water made Celeste feel much more comfortable in an instant.

She wanted to sit up, but it hurt so much that she couldn't bear it.

"Ouch!"

She gasped hard and frowned, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed at herself.

Celeste felt that she was really useless. She actually couldn't even bathe on her own and needed him to help her. How embarrassing was this?

She was both ashamed and mad about the thought that she was so frail.

"You don't have to force yourself," Gary assured her, "Come, hold on to me."

He had already stretched out his strong arms, indicating Celeste to grab onto him.

Celeste saw that he had already changed his clothes, yet she was still in such a awkward state. This made her even more flustered.

With just a moment of hesitation, Gary had already wrapped his hands around her and helped her sit up. His actions were extremely gentle as he was afraid that he would hurt Celeste. She felt so much comfortable as her whole body was immersed in the warmth of the water.

However, Gary's newly changed clothes became wet again.

"Your clothes got wet," Celeste said apologetically.

"Just let it be," Gary looked at her with a funny look on his face. He squatted in front of the bathtub and looked at her with his deep gaze, "Celeste, you can't bathe yourself. Let me help you." Celeste was dumbstruck for a bit before she started blushing again.

She felt awkward and lowered her head out of shame.

"You're mine now. Why are you still so embarrassed with me helping you bathe?" Gary said as he started bathing her.

Celeste really didn't want to move at all, because it was extremely painful every single time she tried to move. It was so unfair. Why did men seem unaffected by the pain and so energetic? On the other hand, she was in so much pain that she could not even take a bath on her own.

Celeste's head was hung in dejection. Although she was upset, she still nodded, "Sorry to trouble you."

"What are you talking about?" Gary sighed helplessly, "It's my honour to help you bathe."

It was really a great opportunity for him to be able to take advantage of her in such a way.

With that, Celeste didn't speak anymore.

Gary scooped some warm water for her. Since she had taken a shower before, he didn't need to scrub her back. He just had to give her a rough rinse and allow the warmth of the water to soothe her pain.

"I can't stay in the bath for too long," Celeste sighed, "I read that girls shouldn't stay in the tub for too long after doing it. I'm afraid."

"I know," Gary could probably guess what she was worried about, "You're afraid of getting an infection. I'll help sanitize after you're done bathing. Don't worry, this water is clean. Taking a bath will make you fee much more comfortable, and it will relieve your exhaustion."

Celeste breathed a sigh of relief. She was fine as long as she would not get infected. However, it was true that she felt more comfortable after taking a bath.

Celeste didn't say anything else.

When Gary helped her wash her private parts, she instantly grew nervous. She was so scared that she didn't dare to move an inch.

Gary stiffened a bit. He then looked at her and noticed that she was being tense. He narrowed his eyes.

Celeste's face was as red as a tomato.

Such a sight left Gary thinking that she looked so seductive.

At this moment, he also recalled the passionate and enjoyable moments from earlier on. He gulped, and his voice became more hoarse and sexy. "Stay still, you should get some sleep after bathing."

His voice sounded lazy. Celeste had a bad feeling that he would pounce on her again once she accidentally made a wrong move.

She was terrified just at the thought of it.

Meanwhile, Gary waited on patiently.

It was very quiet.

Both of them were getting a little embarrassed.

Only then did Celeste relax herself a little, so that it would be easier for him to help her bathe.

A smile appeared on Gary's handsome face. He looked very gentle as he helped her.

However, Celeste was still tense and did not look at Gary.

The whole bath felt like a complete torture to Celeste. This was the first time in her life for her to feel like that.

All of a sudden, Gary suddenly touched a part of her body which he shouldn't have. Celeste yelped as she shot a glance at him, stunned.

"Don't."

Gary looked at her and coaxed her gently and patiently, "Don't worry, I'm just helping you wash up. I won't do anything to you."

"Really?" She blushed and was not sure whether she should believe him or not.

Gary secretly sighed. If he didn't have enough self control, this girl probably would lose faith in him from then on.

In fact, he really did nothing else. After washing her up, Gary wrapped her body up in a bath towel and carried her back.

Celeste wanted to cover her head with the quilts, but Gary stopped her from doing so and explained, "Your hair isn't dry yet. You can hide under the quilts after drying your hair." As he spoke, he took a hairdryer to help her dry her hair.

The rumbling sound masked the awkwardness between them. Celeste didn't say a word, and she felt sleepier as the hot air blew around her.

She closed her eyes and felt his big palm brushing through her hair. His touch was so gentle. She sighed as she realised that this proud guy was really capable in doing anything. She just found out that he had changed the bed sheets before helping her to dry her hair. She was really surprised by all his actions.

Perhaps, some people weren't really what they seemed to be like. Maybe they were better than expected.

Soon after, her hair was completely dry. Gary then put away the hairdryer.

The room fell silent once again.

Gary looked down at her and said, "I'm going to get changed. I'll help you change later."

Celeste watched him leave. A few minutes later, he came back after changing, a silk nightgown in his hand.

Celeste had seen the nightgown when she was flipping through her clothes back then. She didn't wear it because it was sleeveless and a little too short for her.

She didn't expect him to bring it to her.

"Can I change into something else?" Celeste requested.

"It's more comfortable to sleep in this, and it's tiring if you wear too much," Gary didn't intend to change it for her, "And you should get some rest for now. This will do."

"It's a little too short," Celeste protested.

"You'll be covered with the quilts, and it's not too short either," He persuaded her, "Even if it is, I won't get to see it either."

Celeste had no choice but to put it on.

However, it seemed that it was truly a mistake for her to put this on. When she was sleeping, she felt Gary's hands going back and forth around her thighs, and it disturbed her so much that she couldn't seem to fall asleep at all.

At that time, it seemed to be only midnight. She had been sleeping for just a few hours and couldn't sleep anymore after feeling his touch on her body.
