Chapter 447 Monday morning , just as Celeste arrived at the office building downstairs , she bumped into Kieran , who was also arriving for work . Kieran smiled as he said , " Morning . " Celeste responded , " Morning . " As soon as she spoke , she caught sight of Caleb nearby . Seeing him made her pause slightly . Kieran noticed Caleb as well and frowned in displeasure . Caleb didn''t pay much attention to Kieran and walked straight over to Celeste . " I got home early yesterday morning .


    We haven''t seen each other in a while , so I thought I''de by and say hello . " Caleb really hade just to see her . Her attitude had been clear all along , so he didn''t want to make her ufortable or annoy her . He added , " Go ahead with your work . Don''t mind me . I''ll leave in a bit . " There was honestly nothing more Celeste felt needed to be said between them . His sudden appearance had left her at a bit of a loss for words . Since he said that , she didn''t stand on ceremony .


    She nodded and turned to head upstairs . Kieran nced at Caleb before following behind Celeste . Caleb watched her retreating figure . After a long moment , he turned and returned to his car . There was a bouquet of flowers in the car . He had originally nned to give them to Celeste , but given the way things looked now , if he actually brought them out , she''d probably be even more put off and want to avoid him . Thinking that , Caleb gave a helplessugh .


    In the elevator , Kieran stood beside Celeste and pressed the button . Seeing how he was silently watching her , Celeste looked up and asked , " What is it ? " Kieran shook his head . " Nothing . " But he couldn''t hold it in and finally asked , " About Mr. Jennings … Does he often ask to meet with you ? " Celeste replied , " No. " Caleb''s work was quite demanding , and he didn''t have many breaks . Even if he wanted to see her , he didn''t have the time .


    Earlier , Celeste had clearly turned Caleb down , and Kieran had secretly felt relieved . Still , he couldn''t help worrying that if Caleb stepped up his pursuit , Celeste might eventually give in . That thought suddenly made him think of Beck . As far as he knew , Beck also liked Celeste . But he hadn''t shown up for quite a while , and like himself , had never really pursued her seriously . ( 1 ) Why was that ? Did he give up ? 1/2 Chapter 447  Then a new thought struck Kieran .


    Could it be that Beck knew Celeste''s husband ? ( 1 Still hesitating , Kieran finally asked , " I''m a bit curious … " " Hm ? " Celeste responded . Kieran said , " Mr. Jennings is a pretty good guy , but you don''t seem interested in him . Why is that ? " What he really wanted to know was whether there was something specific she disliked about Caleb or if she had any limits when it came to rtionships and marriage . If she did , he''d make sure to avoid triggering them himself in the future .


    3 To Celeste , Kieran wasn''t the gossipy type . Since this was the first time he had asked her a personal question , she didn''t feel annoyed by it and answered directly . " I haven''t officially divorced yet . How could I consider him ? Besides , I''m sure I don''t have any romantic interest in Mr. Jennings . " 2 Kieran had thought she was already divorced . Hearing this , he froze . " You … You''re not officially divorced yet ? " Celeste shook her head and said , " Not yet .


    " Just as she finished speaking , the elevator arrived . Celeste stepped out and headed straight to her office . Kieran stood there watching her figure retreat , momentarily nking out . Then something suddenly clicked . Could it be that the reason Beck never made a move on Celeste wasn''t because he gave up ? But because he knew she wasn''t officially divorced ? Or … Was it because Beck knew who her husband was ? 2/2
