Chapter 1724
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
And a good life wasnât something that he could give her right now.
Inside Wesleyâs car, Blair was sitting quietly in her seat, reflecting on what had happened a few
moments ago. She wondered whether she would have agreed to take Miller back if she werenât living
with Wesley.
After thinking about it for a while, she got the answerâno. There was no way she could do that.
Not that she was unforgiving; she could forgive all of his mistakes but not cheating. She wanted a
faithful husband. And even if she chose to forgive Miller and take him back, she would never forget his
betrayal. It would always remain an ugly scar in their marriage and would only lead to further tensions.
âI have to take care of a few things tonight. Iâll drop you off and leave. You will have to fix yourself
something to eat later,â Wesley told her, breaking the silence of the car

Blair broke out of her reverie and nodded.
âOkay. No problem.â
âIf something Like that happens again, just give me a call. I am going to be there.â He would drop
everything and rush to her rescue as soon as he got her call.
âI know. Thanks.â She smiled.
âYou know what? Iâll give you several guysâ numbers. If you canât reach me, call them. Any of them will
help you out.â Wesley started to recite the numbers from his memory
Blair quickly typed them and saved the numbers on her phone along with the names of their respective
owners: Damon, Curtis, and Carlos.
Wesley went on explaining a bit more about his associates.
âCurtis is the principal of a university. Among the three of them, Damon is always idle and Carlos is
always busy. That leaves you with an interesting choice. Damon is lazy too. If it is not urgent, you can
call him. If it is important, call Carlos because he likes to be prompt. Even if he doesnât have time, he
will have someone else help you.â
âOkay, sure,â Blair replied shortly. To be frank, it didnât matter who, among the three of them, was there
for her. She only wanted
Wesleyâs help.
Since wherever Wesley needed to be was urgent and he had to get back to base as soon as possible,
he stopped the car in front of their apartment building and nodded at Blair. After watching her walk
inside, he turned his car around and drove away.
It had been such a brief meetingâ¦
In Askor
Baldwin waited ten-odd days before he went to Keith to talk about
Niles. His initial plan to see Keith the day after he and Cecelia had talked had been waylaid by
unforeseen circumstances. Out of the blue, one of Keithâs comrades-in-arms had passed away; Keith
had gone to the manâs hometown to attend the funeral.
The man had been a good friend to him, so when Keith came back, he was very sad. For the next few
days, he had been moody and down.
One day, while they were having dinner, Cecelia brought up Niles. When his name was mentioned, it
reminded Baldwin of what had happened between Blair and Niles, so he remarked to Keith, âDad, Niles
seems to have been rather quiet lately.â
Keith was busy piling some food onto his plate. When he heard that, he paused and turned to Baldwin.
âIsnât that normal for him?â The old man was under the impression that Niles might be still overjoyed
with the property ownership certificate.
âNo, it isnât. He doesnât like Blair, and Blair doesnât Like him. But
