Chapter Twenty-Six VIII
"You look dashing, son," his mother emotionally said as she stare at Lander.
Lander took a deep breath as he was fixing his tie in front of the mirror. He can't just sit while waiting for the time to pass so he decided to start preparing for the dinner date even though he was a bit early to start doing so.
"I hope Celestine will like what I prepared for her," he said as he finished fixing his tie.
"I know she will, son." She gives Lander an assuring smile before holding her son's hand to gently squeeze it.
Lander is obviously nervous. He'd been walking back and forth inside of his room talking to the coordinator about the preparations. And his mother was happy to see the tension in her son because it only means that he treasure Celestine and was afraid of disappointing her.

It took her a few minutes before finally absorbing Lander's sudden question. As much as she wanted to answer the question, she refused not to. "Let's just talk about something else. Vincent and I just had an argument and I'm still in the state where just by hearing his name my blood is starting to boil," she excused, glancing to Lander, giving him a faint smile before focusing again her eyes to the road.

Her head is resting on his chest, listening to every beat of his heart—it was calm, as well as his every breathing."I love feeling your skin against mine," he whispered.

It was not too revealing like how Vincent pictured it to be so she rolled her eyes."Nope, it's not revealing it's perfectly fine," she said, spraying an expensive perfume all over her body. She was surprised to see her things that she left in the hotel properly arranged in Vincent's room after they had their breakfast.
