Chapter 1627
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âChief, weâreâ¦taking a break. Itâs break time now,â another soldier said. He meant to say that they had
the freedom to talk and do whatever they wanted during break time.
Wesley coldly ran his eyes over the soldiers. He ordered them, âTwo hundred push-ups now, all of you.
Never mention her name again. If I hear you again, do three hundred. After that, itâs seven hundred!â
The younger soldiers started Looking worried. They wanted to beg for mercy, but decided against it-
theyâd probably get worse. Left with no choice, they lined up in a row, dropped to the floor to assume
the correct form, and began to do the push-ups.
They had just counted to thirteen when Wesley suddenly took off his army cap, put it aside and joined
them in their punishment .
Seeing their leader punishing himself as well, the soldiers all stopped complaining. They focused on
finishing the two hundred push-ups theyâd been given.
Blair, far away in England, knew nothing about all these episodes happened in Alorith. She was now
feeling extremely gloomy after a phone call from her maternal grandpaâGilbert Jenkins. She had
planned to pick up some part-time jobs in England during the holidays. But her grandpa had already
booked a flight ticket for her, haranguing her until she agreed to come back home.
On the second day of the New Year, Blairâs plane touched down in the city airport in the afternoon.
Wacian came to pick her up. Blair had told Miller her ETA beforehand. But her fiance wasnât around
now. He had returned to his hometown to visit his relatives during the festival.
Blair spotted Wacian in the crowd. He held a bouquet of lilies in his hand. When they reached each
other, Blair greeted him happily.
âHi
Wacian!â
Wacian handed the bouquet to her and then took the suitcase from her hand, saying, âWelcome home!â
âThanks.â She breathed in the fragrance of the lilies, delighted.
Her cousin scanned her from head to toe and praised, âWow, youâre even hotter than before you left.
You hairâs much longer, too. Working too much to get a haircut?â

Blair Laughed.
âYouâre wrong. I was lazy. I had tons of fun.â
Wacian laughed too as he walked forward. He slightly tapped her forehead.
âI know you Like to slack off. Lucky youâre so smart.
Otherwise you wouldâve flunked everything.â
They bantered with each other as they walked towards the exit of the airport. Suddenly, a tall figure
caught their eyes.
A man in green camouflage walked in their direction, holding a phone to his ear.
The world is big, but sometimes it can be small.
Blair had just arrived, and now she bumped into a man she hadnât seen for six months.
Of course, she wouldnât be as naive as before. She knew Wesley didnât come to the airport for her.
Only Joslyn, Miller and her family knew that she was coming back that day. He couldnât have that info.
The next second, the man on the phone seemed to notice her too.
