Chapter 1580
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âGot it,â Blair nodded, but her expression showed that she was not convinced. âHe didnât want to cook
for me, and even found a lame excuse. â
Wesley could tell that she didnât buy his explanation, but decided not to push the issue. He went to the
kitchen to see if he could help
Talbot, but the cook drove him out too.
Seeing that Blair was watching TV, Wesley came over and sat next to her, pulling out his phone to play
a game.
Within two minutes, his phone started ringing. Blair couldnât help but turn her head to look at him,
wondering, âItâs late. I wonder who that is. A coworker or a friend?
Wesley stood up and walked toward the balcony, phone to his ear. Blair heard him say, âHi, Megan.â
âMegan? Who? Sounds Like a girlâs name. Is that his girlfriend?
Is she the girl I met at his apartment the other night? Hmmm⦠I wonderâ¦*
Thinking of this, Blair put on her slippers and ran toward the kitchen to get some answers. In the
kitchen, Talbot had already finished prep, and was about to start cooking in earnest.
âTalbot!â Blair said cheerfully.
âHi, Miss Blair. Dinnerâs not ready yet.â Talbot turned to look at her and saw that she closed the door to
the kitchen.
A N G E L A âs L I B R A R Y
âDonât call me Miss Blair. Itâs just Blair
âALL right, Blair!â Talbot gave her a shy smile.
âSoâ¦umâ¦whoâs Megan?â Afraid that Wesley would hear her, Blair whispered it in his ear.
âJust a girl. Why do you ask?â Talbot shrugged.
âNothing. Iâm just curious.â Blair tried her best to make herself sound indifferent.
While cooking, Talbot answered honestly, âSheâs a foster kid. Carlos and our chief are her guardians.
Theyâve been really nice to her.
Almost everyone in the city knows that much. Didnât you?â
âNo.â Blair shook her head; she knew nothing about the upper-class world.
Wesley said something about Carlos the other day. After she had come back, she had searched for
Carlosâ information online, but found nothing. It was her classmate who told her who Carlos was.
âSheâs in high school and pretty cute. Our chief and Carlos adore her.â
âHmm.â âSo theyâre not related. Sheâs in high school. I think I met her, then, â Blair thought to herself.
âWesley adores her.â Blair was green with envy.
Talbot picked up a slice of stewed beef and reached out his hand.
âTry it. I found this at a delicatessen.â
