Chapter 1716

“This is one of Carlos’ apartments, but he has never lived here once.

It’s almost as good as new. The developer of the Eastern Coastal

Apartments works for him. Carlos promised to give me a fifty percent discount,” he told Blair. Carlos

had initially offered to give Wesley the apartment as a gift, but Wesley turned it down. Left with no

choice, Carlos offered to give him a fifty percent discount instead.

The apartment was valued at about 26 million dollars, so now, Wesley only needed to pay just a little

over 10 million dollars.

‘He wants to buy the apartment just because it’s close to my workplace!‘ Blair opened her mouth, but

didn’t know what to say. ‘Why is he going out of his way to do this for me? The apartment would still

cost at least 10 million dollars even with the fifty percent discount.

Does this mean he actually has feelings for me?”

“Wesley…” Her voice was soft and carried a hint of affection.

Wesley looked her in the eye.

Tears welled up in Blair’s eyes.

“If you don’t like me, then you should stop taking care of me.”

It had been a long time since Wesley said that he didn’t like her. He pursed his Lips and said, “My mom

Likes you. A lot. So I need to Like you too. She’ll be happy to see you live in a safe and comfortable

place.” ‘As long as Mom is happy, I’m happy too, ‘ he thought.

But as soon as he said the words, he realized how Lame of an excuse it was.

The softness on Blair’s expression instantly vanished and turned into a scowl. ‘So he’s being nice to

me only because his mom Likes me? Nothing else? If I didn’t know any better, I’d probably just think

he’s a mama’s boy.

Ugh! I feel so tired!’ She forced a smile and waved at him.

“Good night.”

Without saying another word, she turned around and walked back into her bedroom.

Wesley silently watched as she closed the door behind her, and then entered his own bedroom.

Lying in bed, Blair turned and rolled. She forced her eyes closed, but sleep still wouldn’t come. She

wasn’t really in the mood to read a book either, so she just lay there, awake. When it was already past

midnight, she suddenly sat up. She stared at the package of perfume and lipstick on the nightstand and

then got out of bed.

“I wonder if Wesley is already asleep, ‘ she thought.

She picked up the perfume and lipstick and left her bedroom. Standing outside Wesley’s bedroom, she

knocked on the door once, but there was no response.

She knocked again. Still nothing.

‘Is he asleep? Or maybe I should just knock on the door harder?’ she mused.

After a short pause, she knocked on the door for the third time. This time, the door opened.

Wesley was not asleep; he was just taking a shower. ‘Did he just finish showering? Or was he still in

the middle of it when I knocked?’ she wondered. He had a towel wrapped around his waist, and his hair

was still dripping wet.

Blair was suddenly dumbstruck. This was the second time that she had seen Wesley wearing nothing

but a towel. She had previously told herself that she would be a cheating dog if she still held any sort of

attraction towards him.
