What kind of a question was that? Blair didn’t realize Wesley’s emotional change. But it was reasonable that he would be worried about her since it was already quite late. So she assured him, “Yes. He helpeda lot in England. We’re good friends. Wesley, please don’t worry. I’ll try to be back inside the apartment before midnight.”

‘It won’t take too long to talk about job, ‘ she thought.

Pressing his lips into a thin line, Wesley remained silent and turned around to walk on.

Blair noticed how Wesley walked on without saying a word. She sensed a brewing headache and wondered, ‘Is he seriously givingthe silent treatment?”

They reached a crossroad; if they went right, they would reach the parking lot. The other led to the front gate. Wesley stopped in his tracks, hesitating for a few seconds. He gestured to the path that would bring them to the entrance.

“I’ll walk you to the gate,” he said.

“Sure,” Blair agreed as she let out a sigh of relief. He finally said something.

On their way to the front gate, Blair phoned Adalson.

“Uncle Adalson, I have something to do and I’m leaving now. Yes, he’s withnow. Okay.

Bye.”

Wesley escorted Blair on the way out. With him by her side, she got through the gate’s heavy security without any difficulty. As soon as they got out of the base, a gust of cold wind hit her face.

It was dark outside, with only a few street lamps on. Blair jumped a few times to keep herself warm. She turned to Wesley and told him, “You can go back to your office. I’ll just wait for Orion here. I won’t go anywhere.”

He put a cigarette between his lips and took out the lighter from his pocket.

“Keep your distance from me, please.”

Blair’s lips twitched. Nonetheless, she took a few steps back and watched him light his cigarette.

“You… Are you a heavy smoker?” She’d seen him smoke more than a few times before.

He blew out a cloud of smoke opposite Blair’s direction. He made sure his secondhand smoke would not reach the girl.

“Not really.” He only smoked heavily whenever he was annoyed.

“Not really?’ Blair was not buying it. She tried her best not to nag but she still ended up reminding him, “Don’t smoke too much. It’s bad for your health.”

Wesley turned to look at her. He was puzzled by the girl’s sudden concern for him. ‘Is she worried about me?

The way Wesley was looking at her made Blair uneasy. She was trying to make out what was going on behind his eyes. A few seconds passed and Blair finally started speaking again.

“Well, it was not my intention to meddle with your business,” she said quietly.

“I purely meant what I said. Smoking kills, you know?”

Wesley pulled his gaze away from Blair and huffed another puff.

Blair sighed. She gave up trying to read Wesley’s thoughts. Wesley seemed off to her. She just couldn’t quite put her finger on it.
