Chapter 1714

“But we haven’t made any mistakes recently,” he continued.

Lenard was also confused by Wesley’s behavior.

“Beats me,” he replied with a shrug.

“I caught a glimpse of his face as we walked out of his office. Seemed like he was in a bad mood. Did

we unknowingly piss him off somehow? Or was he perhaps just taking out his anger on us?”

“Of course we pissed him off! Our chief isn’t the kind of man who would

” Bowman chimed in without make things difficult for us for no reason second thoughts. But like the

other two soldiers, he too couldn’t think of anything they did that would have offended Wesley so much.

A soldier who had been keeping quiet suddenly opened his mouth.

“Ah! I know it!” he exclaimed as if he just discovered life’s greatest secrets.

“What is it?” The others all turned to look at him with their eyebrows raised.

“He must have been dumped!”

“Meh!” The soldier was met with blank stares and a variety of disdainful Looks. The other soldiers then

brushed him off and went back to carrying out their punishments.

‘Wesley? Dumped? He didn’t even have a girlfriend. How could he have gotten dumped?’ they thought

to themselves.

Before long, they soon found out why Wesley punished them. The following day, Talbot happened to

see Blair’s Latest update in her

Moments while browsing through his phone during Lunch break. She posted a picture showing several

fancy-looking mung bean cakes and mooncakes— the cakes that they had eaten. The caption read,

“Looks yummy, huh?

After countless failures, I’ve finally made the perfect pastries!”

‘No wonder Wesley was so angry. We ate the desserts that his beloved girl had made for him.”

Talbot eagerly showed the update to the others. They all Looked at each other, at a loss for words.

Back inside Wesley’s office, he stared at the remaining mooncake, two mung bean cakes and half a

bottle of milkshake. He pursed his lip in annoyance. ‘What a pity, ‘ he thought.

Blair had worked hard to make these pastries for him, but most of them ended up getting eaten by

others.

He took a mung bean cake and put it inside his mouth, chewing slowly.

He had to admit that it was delicious and that the sweetness wasn’t too overpowering.

Sweet food can really lift up people’s moods, even Wesley’s. Tasting the cake alleviated his bad mood

somehow. He then finished up the remaining desserts quickly.

Not only that, he drank the strawberry milkshake in one big gulp.

Although it was a Little stale, it hadn’t gone bad at all. After that, he set aside the Lunch boxes and left

the office. He then drove to the

Hillside Apartments to pack his stuff.
