“Surprised to see you here! I’m flying to Ennd to rx. What about you?”
“Just some errands,” ir replied simply with her eyes on her phone.
She didn’t like Megan after she saw how she behaved around Wesley. So she wasn’t interested in
talking to her any more than she had to.
“Oh, by the way, I have something to tell you.”
Original from N?velDrama.Org.
“Yes?”
Megan said in a soft voice, “It’s about Uncle Wesley.”
“Go on.” ir closed the game she was ying and opened the Weibo app, absentmindedly scrolling
through the updates.
“I heard you proposed to him but he turned you down.”
ir’s face changed.
“Who told you that?” She stared at Megan in disbelief, mouth frozen in an “0.” As far as she knew,
Wesley had shut down any conversation around this. He wouldn’t even let his men talk about it.
“Uncle Wesley told me,” Megan said matter-of-factly. The truth was, she had overheard Talbot and
Bowman talking in Wesley’s apartment, and put two and two together.
ir’s heart felt like it was being squeezed by a hand of ice. Was it
Wesley? She could imagine how Megan Laughed when he told her. She felt sad, angry and really
embarrassed at the moment.

Megan just ignored her reactions, and continued in that crazy, cheerful tone, “ir, to tell you the truth,
I’m Wesley’s girlfriend now, and we’re living together. Too bad you moved. We could have been
neighbors.”
She stole a nce at ir’s pale face before continuing, “I know why he told me, at least, I think I do.
He wanted me to know you weren’t dating. He’s been crushing on me for a long time. He doesn’t think
of me as a niece, but we’re not rted anyway. It’s just that I’m still young, and I’ll always have a
special ce in his heart. Of course, he didn’t Lay this out. He’s not good at expressing his feelings.
You know him. I figured it out by Listening to him…”
Megan paused. ir tried to process her words. Indeed, Wesley wasn’t the type of man to confess his
love to others.
“He said that he was nice to you when you were neighbors because you’re
Lieutenant General Jenkins’ niece. He had to show respect to his superior,” Megan added.
Her secret exposed, ir could hardly keep herposure. She wanted to end the conversation as
soon as possible.
“Megan, why are you telling me all this? I’m engaged. I have nothing to do with Wesley anymore. I
don’t want to hear anything about him.”
“Well, okay. I wish you could just stay in Ennd, ir. Without you around, no one would get in the
way. Then Wesley and I could get married, and he wouldn’t have to be confused.”
“Confused? Get in the way?’ ir frowned at her words.
“How did I get in the way?” ir felt Megan was being ridiculous. Ever since she started her studies in
Ennd, she hadn’t called Wesley at all.
They met once when the Jenkins family and Leonard family had a dinner together. But it was Wesley
who talked to her first. She had tried her best to keep her distance.
“Anyway, I like Uncle Wesley too. Please don’t call him anymore,”
