Chapter 17 Confession

Seeing her like this, Ron finally sighed. He gently put his arm around her, letting her rest in his arms.

"I know I have wronged you, but you know that the company has just settled down. My father and
mother have always liked Celia, especially my mother, who almost believes that she is her daughter-in-
law. If I go to tell her that I can't marry Celia and marry you, I can't imagine what my mother will do? Do
you understand? "

Susan resentfully snorted and said, "what merits does Celia have? She is just an orphan that no one
wants. Mo Clan is also a big family. Why does your mother like her? As for Celia Ling, who was she?
Why did she stay at the Mo Clan? Did she really think she was the daughter of a rich family? I think
probably it was she who took the initiative to seduce Carlos. Humph, I really underestimated her. She's
really good at playing tricks! "

Ron didn't say anything.

Susan seemed to be aware of something and her heart sank. She quickly put on a charming smile and
went into his arms.

"Ron, how about you take me to see your mother someday when she is in a good mood? I believe after
seeing me, your mother will definitely like me better than Celia. "

He smiled noncommittally.

"Please, honey?"

"Okay!" Ron touched her cheek and comforted her.

Hearing his response, Susan was so happy that she stood on her tiptoe and wrapped her arms around
his neck, wanting to kiss him.



With his hands around her waist, he responded faintly, but his eyes were cold.

The two seemed to be affectionate, but what they didn't know was that a figure passing by not far away
saw them and turned back.

In an instant, the woman in red rushed in front of them.

She grabbed his arm and saw his face without any signs.

"Crack!".

A heavy slap ended the short sweet time of the couple.

"I, I have to go back to school and live there today."

On the way back, Celia took a look at Carlos sitting next to her. He stared at her with his deep eyes,
making her heart beat faster.

"Well, my friend came back from abroad today, so..."

She put on a fake smile.

Carlos didn't say anything to show his agreement. Celia breathed a sigh of relief.

As the car arrived at the school gate, Celia shouted to stop the car.

"You don't have to drive in. Just stop here."

Although she didn't have any entrance guard, everybody would gossip about her when she got off this
late.

However, Carlos did not intend to stop the car. His low voice came out from his thin lips.



"Which building?"

Celia was a little embarrassed. Before she could say anything, the car was already driven into school.

Celia was still stunned when they arrived at the building where she lived.

"You told Boris last time."

Carlos said before Celia could respond.

Well

Did she tell this to Boris?

She really couldn't remember!

A few seconds later, she opened the door and got off.

"It's Monday tomorrow. Don't forget to bring your ID card. I'll see you at the gate of the Civil Affairs
Bureau."

As soon as her feet fell on the ground, she heard the man's voice again.

"Okay."

Celia responded in a low voice. However, she felt a little depressed.

She felt that she was like a docile wife in front of Carlos.

The black Maybach gradually disappeared from Celia's sight. She turned around and walked towards
the door.

As soon as she entered the door, she were grabbed by someone.



Before she could react, she fell into a strong chest.

"Save... HMM... "

Before she could shout for help, her mouth was covered by a big hand.

She smelt a familiar scent.

"Celia, it's me!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Celia calmed down gradually.

At the same time, he released his hand from her mouth.

"I'm sorry, Celia. I shouldn't have scared you."

"Ron, why are you here?" Celia Ling frowned slightly.

"How is your foot? Susan is so abominable! "

Ron said angrily.

"It's just a little sprain. Fortunately it didn't hurt the bone. It's nothing serious."

As soon as Ron mentioned Susan, Celia looked at the man in front of her and had many questions in
her mind.

For example, he had always despised Susan. But why was he so intimate with her today?

For example, he didn't even say a word for her.

"Celia, I know what you're thinking."



Looking at her in silence, he wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought. After a few
seconds of silence, he began to speak hesitantly.

"In fact, I have something to tell you."

Confess?

Celia's heart skipped a beat. She held her breath.

He took her hand gently with a sincere look on his face.

"I do have frequent contacts with Susan, just as you have seen today. We often... do something
together."

"So you and she, you two..."

Celia's mind went blank.

"No, it's not what you think."

He held her hand tightly and explained hurriedly.

"In the past, I didn't want you to know about it because I didn't want you to get hurt. But today, when I
saw your injury and your gaze at me, I knew you would misunderstand me. I considered for a while. No
matter what my starting point is, I should explain to you clearly. "

"Then, why do you suddenly get so close to Susan?"

He sighed gently, with a serious look on his face. "Nothing else deserves me to do except for the
company."



"The company? The company is safe now, isn't it? Why do you still... "

Celia asked in confusion.

"Do you remember what I told you before? Carlos invested two hundred million, and the company's
situation has improved, but I still can't feel at ease. "

"Carlos is always unfathomable. Who knows what he will do to you if he makes investment today? So I
have to take the initiative! An consortium is the best choice to befriend with!"

Ron frowned and the sadness on his face was captured by Celia.

"If you want to win over the An consortium, you have to ask Susan for help, right?"

Smiling bitterly, he raised his hand and gently caressed her face.

"Celia, you know what I'm thinking. Even if there are thousands of reasons I don't want to do it, this is
the fastest and most effective way. "

"You mean Are you going to Marry... "

"I have never thought about marrying her. What I am doing now is trying to buy as much time as
possible and make them sign the contract. If I fail at that time, I have no choice but to give up the An
consortium."

Hearing that, Celia breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, there was trouble in her heart.

Although he had told her everything and he didn't seem to deceive her on purpose, she

How should she tell him about her relationship with Carlos?

Besides, he saw I was in Carlos's arms today. Wasn't he curious?
