Chapter 634 Wesley And The Women Who Love Him


    "Bro, I saw this bomb-ass watch, but it''s way out of my price range. Buy it for me?" Niles asked Wesley.


    He hadn''t started working yet, and when he wanted to buy something that he could not afford, he would


    ask Wesley for money instead of his parents.


    Wesley started to agree, but when he looked around the apartment, he decided otherwise.


    In the past, he didn''t have much use for the money he made. But now he needed to buy things for ir.


    He sat on the sofa and said casually, "Sorry, I don''t have it. Why don''t you hit up Dad?"


    "I did that the other day. It''s too soon. Wesley, please! It''s just 300k," Niles pleaded.


    "I told you—what part of ''I don''t have it'' don''t you understand?"


    ''What''s wrong with him? He used to buy me stuff all the time. Why turn me down now?'' Niles was


    puzzled. "If you don''t have it, what did you spend it on?" he asked.


    "I need to get an apartment." Wesley was telling the truth.


    "What? You sold your room in the Hillside Apartments? You want to buy another one?"


    "Yeah, I did. I''m nning on a longer stay, and the Hillside Apartments aren''t as close as I like."


    "I heard you also sold one of your apartments in A Country. You still don''t have enough?" Niles was


    getting more confused by the minute. ''He''s unloaded two apartments, and he stilles up short? Just


    how much is the new one he''s looking at?'' he thought.


    "Nope."


    "But you have a savings ount!"


    Thest slender thread of Wesley''s patience snapped. "No money! Get lost!" he spat. Then he hung up


    on his brother, not wanting to hear a reply.


    ''What did I do wrong? Why''s he so mad at me?'' Niles was shocked.


    His hope of buying the watch crumbled to dust. ''I really want it. How can I afford it? Maybe sell my


    apartment? No! The housing prices aren''t that good right now. It''s a buyer''s market, and I want my


    money''s worth.''


    It was the end of the year, and luckily, Wesley was able to take a few days off. He could go back to A


    Country.


    ir didn''t think it was a problem. Even when Wesley was here in Y City, she couldn''t see him very


    often. Not even once a week.


    But a few days before the Lunar New Year, she got a call from Keith. It sounded like Wesley''s grandpa


    really wanted her to celebrate New Year with them in A Country.


    ir was stunned for a bit, but she recovered quickly and said she needed to check with her own


    grandpa first.


    She did, and Gilbert didn''t like the idea. He told Keith that it just wasn''t polite. He promised she''d visit


    after the New Year.


    So the two old men decided ir''s ns just like that. She would fly overseas on the third day of the


    New Year to visit the Li family elders.


    Wesley flew back to his hometown two days before the New Year. He was so busy every day that he


    didn''t know what was going on until New Year''s celebrations were already under way.


    As soon as he knew that ir wasing the day after tomorrow, he gave her a ring. She happened


    to be holding her phone at that exact moment, pondering whether she should text him. She didn''t


    expect him to call her.


    "Hi, Wesley." Although they had been living together for a while, he almost never called her.


    "Hi, ir. When are you flying out?" he asked. ir''s heart began to race.


    "In two days."


    "Booked your flight yet?"


    "No. I was going to." Actually, she hadn''t had time to make arrangements. She just got the news


    herself.


    "Let me book it for you," Wesley offered.


    "No, I''ll do it. I''m pretty bored hanging out here." She was on holiday too. Since she was off work, she


    couldn''t help missing Wesley.


    Wesley didn''t push the issue. "All right. Once you book it, send me your flight info."


    "Why? Going to pick me up?" ir smiled.


    "Mmm hmm," he answered with augh.


    "Great!"


    For a moment, neither of them spoke. ir looked out the window and said, "Happy New Year,


    N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.


    Wesley!"


    "Thanks. Right back at you."


    It was not easy to book a flight for the holidays. The next day, ir got the first avable flight. The


    moment she booked it, she was about to send Wesley a message.


    On second thoughts, she decided to call him via video chat. He might not see the message in time


    otherwise.


    She waited for a while, but no one answered. She was pretty confused. Normally, he picked up as soon


    as possible.


    ''Maybe it''s because of the bad Wi-Fi. I''ll send him a video chat request again. If he still doesn''t answer,


    then I''ll call him, '' she thought.


    This time, the video chat went through. But to ir''s intense surprise, a girl appeared on the other end.


    She was wearing a simr uniform to Wesley''s. She was pretty with tanned skin.


    ir was at a loss for words, wondering who she was and why she was answering Wesley''s video call.


    The girl glowered at ir. "Looking for Wesley? He''s not here!" Her voice was rude.


    Finally shaking off her surprise, ir asked, "Where is he?"


    "You have something to tell him? Just tell me!" she ordered in a harsh voice. ir was taken aback.


    "Nothing serious..." she murmured.


    "Fine, then don''t bug him again. You''re just like everyone else. Let me guess. You have feelings for


    him? Newssh: so does everyone else. But you don''t like Wesley; you just like his power and his


    uniform. What if he retires from the military? Will you still like him?"


    ir went quiet. Whoever this girl was, she waspletely wrong. She was acting like his girlfriend,


    which made ir rather sad.


    She bit her lip and asked, "Who are you?"


    "Me? I''m his fiancee."


    ir smirked. "Ha! There''s no way. A secret admirer, I take it? Please ask him to call me back. Thank


    you."


    The woman flushed at ir''s words, and adopted an angry tone to cover up her embarrassment.


    "Wow! You''re a piece of work! Wesley doesn''t like you. Can''t you see that? Don''t bother him again.


    He''s busy. He doesn''t have time for girls like you."


    Of course, ir knew Wesley didn''t love her. But it hadn''te up in so long, she''d forgotten.


    But now this woman clearly told her Wesley didn''t love her. She had to wake up from her sweetest


    dreams.


    "Are you implying that you are the love of his life?" ir asked in a low voice.


    "I''m not implying anything. I''m telling you. Wesley and I grew up together, went to military school


    together and graduated together. We are going to be engaged soon. Romantic, huh?"


    This hurt ir worse than she had first thought, her face pale as a ghost. "Then who does he really


    want, you or Megan?" she pried.


    "Huh? You know Megan? He wants me. Megan went to New York to celebrate the New Year. She


    doesn''t stand a chance. You don''t either. Time to go. Wesley and I have a date. Don''t call him again.


    Otherwise, I''ll put a bullet in your head! I''m a crack shot, bitch!" Then the video call disconnected.


    ir''s heart broke as well.


    In A Country


    Wesley was helping his grandpa nt a flower, hands covered with mud. Ga Jiang came over and


    said cheerfully, "Hey, let''s grab a bite to eat. I''ve been drooling just thinking about that restaurant."
