Chapter 1559
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
After a short while, she returned carrying a tray with the hot soup on it. Since Wesleyâs seat was
nearest to the place where the soup was being served, Blair had to pass him on her way back to the
table.
Just when she was walking by him, a boy, who was fighting playfully with his friend, accidentally
stepped on a banana peel and fell towards
Blair.
âShit!â the boy cried as he collapsed onto her.

âAah!â Blair screamed as the hot soup spilled all over her bare arm.
The bowl and the tray thudded onto the floor.
The loud noise attracted everyoneâs attention.
Someone had grabbed her arm in time. She Looked back and saw that it was Wesley.
If it werenât for him, the entire bowl of soup would have spilled all over the upper part of her body. And
probably all over her face too.
Thanks to Wesley, only one third of the hot soup spilled onto her arm.
In an instant, Blairâs arm was scalded. It turned red and swelled, and her face went pate.
Wesley let go of her arm, and quickly unscrewed the Lid from the bottle of water Talbot had drunk from.
He took her arm again and pulled her to the nearest trash can, dumping water onto her arm to cool the
burn
The student who bumped into Blair was scalded by the hot soup too. Some of the soup had splashed
on his chest and legs. Worse, it was summer and he was dressed in shorts and a T-shirt. So he was
now groaning in pain on the floor.
Many students around were still in a daze as everything happened so quickly. Luckily, Talbot and the
other soldiers reacted quickly and took charge of the situation. Some of them handed their bottles of
water to Wesley one by one, while the others began to comfort Blair
âDoes it hurt?â
âBlair, are you okay? Oh, my God. Your arm is so red nowâ¦â
The noise of the crowd snapped Joslyn back to her senses. She shot to her feet and ran to Blairâs side.
âBless, you okay? Letâs see your wound,â she said worriedly.
Face still pale, Blair shook her head, though tears were threatening to fall from her eyes. She gritted
her teeth and reassured her friend in a weak voice, âDonât worry. Iâm okay.â
Wesley knitted his brows and cast her a sidelong glance, wondering if she was pretending to be strong.
But her face was already white as a sheet. And strangely, her pained expression made his heart ache a
little bitâ¦
Students ringed around the boy on the floor; some came forward to help him to his feet. He pulled up
his T-shirt to check his scalds. His chest was just a little red, and compared to Blairâs wound, it wasnât
worth mentioning.
Wesley had gone through all the water bottles he had been given. He still felt it wasnât enough. So he
grabbed her hand and led her towards the nearest sink in the cafeteria, while giving Talbot orders.
âTalbot!
Go buy some aloe vera cream.â
âYes, Chief!â Talbot responded and turned on his heels to carry out his orders.
