Chapter 1688

Blair sighed, feeling unlucky. Just as she was about to pick up her phone, Wesley reacted faster than a

bullet and picked it up for her.

However, as if he didn’t hold it well, the phone slipped off his hand once again and dropped onto the

floor this time. Now, it was really broken. The screen was cracked.

Blair and Cecelia didn’t know what to say now. Just what the hell was going on?

Wesley didn’t even apologize this time. Instead, he promised her,

“Oops. It is broken. Don’t worry. I’ll buy you a new one.”

The two women were lost for words.

Cecelia had a feeling that her son had dropped the phone on purpose, but she wasn’t sure of it. She

also didn’t want to make the situation any weirder, so she stayed silent.

After the breakfast, Blair cleaned the table and tidied her room. By the time she was done, it was a

quarter past ten o’clock.

The three of them left the apartment. Wesley was going to drive them to the shopping mall. Blair

wanted to sit in the back seat with Cecelia, but Wesley suddenly stopped her.

“Don’t you want a new phone? Sit up front. And keep your eyes peeled for a phone store.”

“Okay.” It sounded reasonably fair, so Blair didn’t think much about it and hopped into the passenger

seat.

However, instead of following her instructions, Wesley ignored all phone stores that came their way and

drove straight towards Shining

International Plaza.

Blair was worried. Without a phone, she couldn’t use the money that

Joslyn had wired her via WeChat Pay. She wanted to find a cell phone store and buy a new phone first

before going shopping. She had a very small amount of cash on her.

She tried to tell Wesley in a low voice that she wanted to buy a new phone first. But the man

interrupted her, “Go on and do the shopping first. You’ve asked for a leave from work right? There won’t

be anything urgent.”

“But…” Blair lowered her voice even further.

“I don’t have much cash with me. I need to use WeChat Pay. Just Let me buy a new phone first.

Don’t worry. I’m not going to let you pay for it.”

Wesley cast her a sidelong glance, a bit unhappy with her words.

‘Worry? Why would I worry about buying her a new phone? Am I such a mean guy in her eyes?”

Blair didn’t understand what the look in his eyes meant. But seeing that he was unrelenting, she had no

choice but to shut up for the time being.

Cecelia had been sitting in the back seat, voice-messaging Niles and her friends. She wasn’t paying

the slightest attention to the two in the front seats. After a few moments, Wesley broke the silence and

told her, “Just buy whatever you want and I’ll pay for it now. After you’ve bought a phone, you can

return the money to me.”

Hearing his advice, Blair finally heaved a sigh of relief and nodded,

“Alright. Sounds good.” She had to follow his idea now.
