Chapter 1625

Adalson grabbed his brush, dipped it in the black ink and continued his calligraphy. Without looking at

them, he said, “Leave Blair alone.

You’ll be here on the third day of the New Year, right? I’ll ask your grandpa to talk Blair into coming

back, and we’ll have a reunion dinner then.”

Now Hartwell really wanted to open an investigation. His father never hid anything from him. Hartwell

became even more curious why she’d run off and get engaged to that guy. It didn’t sound Like she

knew him well.

“Okay, got it. I only came back to grab a file. I should get going now. Dad wants to talk to you, Wesley.”

Wesley nodded to Hartwell and watched him Leave the study.

Adalson put down his brush again.

“I asked you to come here because I’m interested in the goings on in a nearby city. I need two men

from your team. They’ll be stationed in that city for two years…”

They began to talk about work. They didn’t even go off on a tangent into personal matters.

Adalson acted as if he knew nothing about what was between Blair and

Wesley. Even after Wesley turned down Blair’s proposal, he didn’t ask

Wesley a thing about it.

They talked for quite a while. When Wesley turned around to leave,

Adalson called out to stop him.

“Wesley. You have a bright future in the military. Work harder. Try to move up in rank in two years.”

Adalson was clear about one thing. It wasn’t that Wesley had no feelings for Blair. The main reason

that Wesley had turned her down was because he was already married-to the country. The ambitious

young man wasn’t satisfied with his current situation. He wanted to hit the battlefield and protect his

country.

Adalson also understood Blair rushed her engagement because she was angry at Wesley. It wasn’t a

rational decision.

Anyway, he couldn’t get involved. Together or not, it was up to them.

Wesley stood straight and saluted Adalson. With a resolute and confident look in his eyes, he

answered loudly, “Yes, sir! I won’t fail you.”

Wesley hopped in his car after leaving the Jenkins family’s house. But he didn’t start the engine. He

whipped his phone out and tapped on a

WeChat dialog box. He scrolled down the chat log to find messages from six months ago. The last

message was Blair asking him to book the flight ticket.

He then tapped on her WeChat Moments. He found a new post from yesterday. It was all in English.

Wesley read it carefully. She wrote,

“Someone says, if you dream of a person you haven’t seen in a long time, then he’s erasing you from

his memory. Someone says, if you dream of the same person three times, it means that everything

between you and that person is ending. I saw the guy in my dream. Did he forget me?

And I dreamed of him three times. So it’s over, right?”

He saw that Talbot left a comment a few minutes ago.

“What do you mean?” he wrote.
