Adalson cast a casual nce at his wife and asked, “What? Are you not living a happy life?”
Natalia snorted and said, “Now, sure. But before…you don’t know what it was like. ir, believe me.
Never marry a man Like Wesley. I’m not saying that he’s a bad guy. He’s not. But imagine worrying
about him when he’s gone, and wondering if the next knock on the door would be hismanding
officer notifying you he died a hero’s death. If.
“Natalia!” Adalson cut her off helplessly.
Natalia rolled her eyes at her husband.
“What? I’m serious. Keith was trying to fix ir up with Wesley this evening.” Natalia then looked at
ir and continued, “Niles is probably your best choice here. He is the life of the party. Cheerful,
attentive. He’ll make youugh every day. Wesley is clueless when ites to matters of Love. He
hasn’t got a romantic bone in his body. He’s 100% devoted to the military. Marry him and you’ll be
sorry.”
“But Wesley makes me feel safe and protected,” ir suddenly said.
“It seems that it’s toote to warn her, ‘ Natalia thought.
When they passed the Hillside Apartments, Adalson parked the car near the entrance.
“Remember your old apartment, ir? Well, I left a contract there. Can you grab it for me? It’s in the
second drawer under the TV set.”
“Didn’t you terminate the lease?” ir asked in confusion.
“I wanted to, but your cousin bought the apartment. He wants to move
Joslyn’s family in there.” Joslyn was from a poor family, and they lived in thepany dorm.
“Okay.” ir got out of the car and went into the building.
When she was out of sight, Natalia asked her husband, “Why did you Let
A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y
ir get engaged to Miller? Why not fix her up with Niles? Niles has a residency at the military hospital
and has a promising future. ir could do worse than to marry a doctor. And she’d be part of the
Leonard family-they’re Loaded.”
The Leonard family was one of the most powerful families in Askor. Many girls from well-off families
wanted to marry into the Leonard family.
“Niles and ir would never hit it off,” Adalson smiled.
Like ir said, Wesley made her feel safe. ir needed a man Like
Wesley to protect her.
When ir reached the 16th floor, the door to Wesley’s apartment was still open and Niles stood
outside the apartment.
When the elevator arrived with a tinkling sound, Niles turned his head and saw ir.
“Hi, ir! Why are you here?”
ir didn’t expect to meet anyone here. Earlier at the dinner, Wesley was the only thing on her mind,
and she was daydreaming when they talked about where they’d be staying. She thought that they
would stay in some hotel.
“I…I came to get something.” She pointed to the apartment that she used to live in.
Cecelia walked out and was surprised to see her here.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
