Chapter 612 Why Are You Here


    ir gestured with her hands as she spoke. "No, you are wrong. I don''t think Wesley has feelings for


    me. He takes care of me for my uncle''s sake. I often see that he''s been fooling around with Megan."


    She took a pause and asked, "Hey Joslyn, do all men like fooling around with more than one woman?"


    "Maybe! Men are unpredictable, dear. You are such a beauty, Bless. Men like beauties. Megan is not


    as pretty as you. But she knows how to pretend to be weak and helpless in front of Wesley. Men are


    unable to resist these types of girls. Hey, I have a great idea. Why don''t you learn a few tactics from her


    and show Wesley your weakness and feminine side?" Joslyn suggested naughtily. Ever since Wesley


    had turned down ir''s proposal, she had acted as if she wasn''t interested in anyone or anything.


    But whenever they talked about Wesley, she would feel a strange mix of emotions. She would feel


    angry, happy and sad, all at the same time.


    Joslyn strongly believed that ir should adopt some tactics when it came to dealing with Wesley. She


    needed to learn to discover ways to attract him by her beauty and tantrums.


    "Show my weakness and femininity?" ir propped herself up on one elbow and drank another ss


    of beer as she continued, "I wanted to, but he is such a blockhead when ites to matters of love. He


    is always so slow in getting my point. Sometimes, I felt so mad at him that I wanted to beat him blue


    and ck." She gave Joslyn a bitter smile.


    "Why don''t you try to seduce him? It could help you know if he''s really not into you!" Joslyn was totally


    drunk and made a bold suggestion under the influence of the huge amounts of alcohol that she had


    consumed.


    ir rolled her eyes. "I did that too! But it didn''t work. Last time, when Wesley, his mom and I went


    shopping together, he bought me a shade of lipstick and a bottle of perfume. For a moment, I thought


    he had feelings for me. I was so happy and desperate for him that I was ready to getid. I strongly feel


    that an upright and honest man like him will not abandon a woman with whom he has slept, right? But


    before we got intimate together, we had a fight again. Well, it was not really a fight, but we disagreed


    and argued. At that time, I thought he didn''t like me, and recalled Megan''s words. That girl very openly


    told me that he had a thing for her."


    Joslyn looked at her with a perplexed expression. She embraced her warmly, and her heart ached for


    her best friend. "I really feel bad for you. Why can''t you just get over Wesley and move on? When you


    went to Ennd and got engaged to Miller, I thought it was all over between you and Wesley. I didn''t


    expect that you would get involved with him again aftering back from abroad. And now both of you


    are living together!"


    ir nodded her head gently. "Yeah, you''re right! I should get over him but I just can''t do it. It seems


    impossible for me to get over him and move on in life. Every time I think of forgetting Wesley, memories


    resurface which do not let me forget him. When I thought I was going to die in the torrential flood, he


    came to my rescue like a superhero. At that time, I realized that I had never forgotten about him. Even


    though he hurt me badly, I felt I deserved it. He bluntly told me he didn''t like me, yet I went ahead and


    proposed to him in front of so many soldiers. I found many excuses to hate him, but I just can''t remove


    him from my life." Tears rolled down ir''s cheeks as she began to sob lightly.


    Joslyn patted her back softly, trying tofort her. ir continued, "I really don''t know what to do. I


    have told myself countless times to stop loving him, but I just can''t. I can''t stop my feelings for him. I


    can''t think of a life without him." Heartbroken and distraught, she innocently asked Joslyn the question


    that bothered her the most. "Joslyn, will Wesley fall in love with me someday? Will he ever fall in love


    with me?"


    Unable to control her feelings and afraid of the answer, ir burst out crying.


    "ir, please don''t cry. If you want, I''ll go to Wesley and ask him directly if he has feelings for you. If he


    has feelings for you, then both of you can be together. But, if he doesn''t, you need to give up on him.


    You need to let him go and move ahead. I''ll go tomorrow. Or better. We don''t need to wait till tomorrow.


    Let''s do it right now. Do you have his WeChat ount? I''ll send him a friend request now." Joslyn was


    too nervous and didn''t have the courage to call and question him, so she decided to send him a


    WeChat message.


    Sobbing softly, ir fished out her phone and gave it to Joslyn. Joslyn found Wesley''s WeChat ount


    and sent him a friend request with her own phone. She also sent him a message: Hi, I''m ir''s friend,


    Joslyn Zhu.


    She held her phone for a long time, but there was no response from Wesley. "It''s perfectly normal. He''s


    busy and has little time to y on his phone. It might take him three days to find the message," ir


    exined.


    Joslyn thought of Hartwell''s work and sighed. She put her phone back. "Just like your cousin. How


    pitiful that we fall for men like them!"


    In the parking lot of Orchid Private Club, a Hummer stopped abruptly.


    A tall man got out of the car. He locked the doors and walked towards the club.


    At the entrance, he saw a man in a ck overcoat getting out of a ck minivan. Their eyes met.


    "Wesley? Why are you here?" Hartwell asked with surprise.


    Wesley stood straight and saluted Hartwell. "I''m here to pick up someone."


    Hartwell looked at the club. Suddenly he had a bad feeling. "Whom are you going to pick up?"


    Wesley paused for a while, and answered honestly, "ir."


    ''What? He promised me that he wouldn''t bug her anymore!'' Hartwell thought angrily after Wesley gave


    the name. "Oh really? What a coincidence! I''m here to pick her up too," he said impatiently.


    ''Oh! So ir called Hartwell! Then, I guess I''d better leave, '' Wesley thought.


    Just when Wesley was going to speak and take leave, Hartwell sighed and said, "Let''s get inside first


    and check out what is going on there."


    Wesley shook his head. He felt it was better to leave. "I''m leaving now." Now that he knew Hartwell had


    Hartwell was confused at his denial. "Why? Do you have any urgent business?"


    This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "No." Wesley was not a man who would lie. He told the truth.


    "Thene with me." Saying that, Hartwell took the lead and entered the club. Wesley hesitated for a


    while but soon started to follow him.


    The hall manager led the way and pushed the door to Room 616 open for them. When the people


    inside saw that two men walked in and that one of them was in a military uniform, they went silent.


    Wesley''s gaze swept over the room. It stopped at the woman in Joslyn''s arms. ir didn''t see him as


    her eyes were closed. She was sipping her beer casually with her back towards him.


    When Joslyn saw them, she nudged ir and asked, "Why did theye together?"


    "Who?" ir asked in surprise. She was wondering why her friends had stopped singing. She took a


    few moments to realize how the room had suddenly gone silent.


    "Hartwell and Wesley!"


    ir still didn''t get Joslyn''s point. She shook her head and murmured, "Who knows? Maybe for work.


    Wait! Wesley? Joslyn, am I seeing things? I can see Wesley here."


    Joslyn rubbed her eyes. "I see him too. That means we are not see things. They are really here!"


    Her eyes were fixed as she saw Hartwell greeting the other guys along the way. The two men who had


    gotten into the room a few moments ago were now walking towards her and ir.


    Wesley nodded at Joslyn gesturing to say "Hi," and then stared at ir, saying nothing. The two just


    looked at each other. Their gazes were so strongly engrossed in each other as if the others around


    didn''t exist at all.


    Although Hartwell wasn''t happy that Wesley and ir met behind his back, he still asked her, "So ir,


    whose car are you riding in?"


    ir sat up and blinked her innocent eyes, her head in a mess. "Hartwell, Colonel Li, what a


    coincidence!"


    "It''s not a coincidence! I''m here to pick you up," Wesley said with a serious expression on his firmly set


    face. He was always so straightforward. There was not a moment when his expression would show his


    feelings.


    ir, Joslyn and Hartwell almost burst outughing. ''Is he always so serious? Even before his family?''


    they wondered.


    ir tried her best to hold back herughter. She didn''t want Hartwell to misunderstand her rtionship


    with Wesley, so she said in a t tone, "Thanks for your kindness, Colonel Li. I think I''ll go with


    Hartwell."


    Hartwell, however, felt something wasn''t right. Heid her lies bare for all to see. "Enough, ir! Do


    you think I''m an idiot? Do you think you can fool me?" he snapped.
