Chapter 1576

Out of habit, he vigilantly walked around her apartment to check if there were any safety problems.

After confirming that everything was safe, he walked towards the door and said, “Get some rest. I

should jet.”

Blair suddenly called out, “Wait.”

He Laced up his boots before turning around to look at her.

Blair strolled over, stood in front of Wesley and Looked up at him. He frowned in confusion. Suddenly,

she put her hands on his strong waist, stood on tiptoe, and quickly planted a kiss on his lips.

“Thanks for your help.”

Last time, she kissed the corner of his lips, but this time, her kiss fell fully on his lips. She was getting

bolder.

Blair was wallowing in the smugness when Wesley suddenly leaned forward. She was startled and

instinctively took a step back. ‘What does he want to do? Will he kill me just because I kissed him?’ she

wondered.

“Blair.”

“Yes?” Was this the first time he said her name? It sounded so great!

“I don’t love you. ears.

His cold and straightforward words rang in her

Blair grinned, a hint of unnoticeable bitterness Lingering on her Lips.

“I know.” She was the one crushing on him, not the other way round. In a relationship, whoever falls in

love first hurts more. Blair was well aware of that.

It only proved that Wesley was a good man. He didn’t Love her, so he turned her down from the start.

Quickly. It was better than stringing her along.

Wesley felt a headache coming on. She was quite stubborn so he decided to be blunt. He explained

further, “I’m only 24. I don’t have time for love. I don’t need it. My job is to serve my country and its

people.

That’s it. That’s what I was born to do.”

“Wesley,” she suddenly called out, interrupting him.

“What 2″

“You’re a grown-up. You can marry and have kids and still be a soldier.

Plenty of military types do that. And I’m not asking you to marry me now. Let’s just date. I promise I

won’t bother you when you’re working.” Blair didn’t know where she got the confidence to say things

like that. She knew it was now or never. She probably wouldn’t be that bold a second time.

Wesley gave her a long look.

“No, it’s not in the cards, okay? Don’t kiss me again. Keep your hands—and your lips-to yourself, and

we can still be friends.”

“Friends…” She hesitated for a second.

“I can’t just be your friend.

I love you.”
