Chapter 718 Are You Sure You Want To Offend Me


    Niles couldn''t believe what Wesley had just asked him. "Hello? I have to work too, you know. I''ll bete


    if I send her off first," he protested.


    "Figure it out yourself," the elder brother nonchntly replied.


    "Fine. All right." Niles had no other choice but toply with Wesley''s demand.


    "Second, you have to update me with how she is, every day."


    "But I''m not a spy," Niles retorted. But he knew Wesley wouldn''t take no for an answer. "Okay, fine. I''ll


    update you every day," he replied in defeat.


    "That''s all I''m asking you. Promise me you won''t forget."


    "Yeah, yeah. Those are just two things. I won''t forget," Niles promised. "Hey, Wesley, you have red


    marks on your neck. What''s wrong?" Niles'' eyes widened in surprise.


    Wesley cast a warning nce at him. His eyes were sharp and fierce. Before leaving the office, he


    gave Niles a few reminders. "Her work starts at 8 in the morning. Her shift ends at 6 in the afternoon.


    Keep that in mind, yeah?"


    "Don''t change the topic. What is wrong with your neck? Were you bitten by mosquitoes?" Niles knew


    well enough they were love bites. He rarely got the chance to make fun of the soldier and he was not


    letting this chance pass. He knew his brother was never a good liar.


    Wesley stopped in his tracks and turned around to face his younger brother. "So, I had a romantic night


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    with my wife. What''s wrong with that? Are you jealous? Go find a girlfriend so you could do the same,"


    he said matter-of-factly.


    "Okay, get out. Now! Our conversation is over," Niles spat. ''Now I''m questioning the reason he came


    back. It might not be because of ir''s leg injury. I think he just wanted to have sex with her, '' he


    thought.


    ''It looks like they''re in a good ce right now. Soon enough, I''ll be an uncle. I really hope it''s a boy so


    he could give Wesley a living hell.''


    ir was used to being away from Wesley most of the time. She woke up the next morning knowing he


    was gone before she even opened her eyes.


    After she ate her breakfast, she went to snoop around their ce hoping to find her morning-after pills.


    That was when she remembered Wesley''s warning fromst night. "If you take the pills again, I''ll keep


    you from getting out of our house. You won''t be getting out until we get a baby."


    ir was frozen in her tracks. She stopped looking for the pills. She knew Wesley was not bluffing. She


    didn''t want to get grounded. It was more terrifying than when she was younger.


    Suddenly, her phone started to ring. It was a call from Niles. "Good morning, Niles. What''s up?"


    "G''morning, ir. I''ve been waiting for you for more than ten minutes now. Can youe downstairs


    now? Are you done? You''ll bete for work if we don''t leave now." Wesley told Niles he could only wait


    for ir downstairs. He would wait for ir toe downstairs in the morning, and in the evening, he''d


    have to wait downstairs as well until the lights in their apartment were turned on.


    "Huh? Why are you waiting for me?" ir was confused. Wesley didn''t tell her about their new daily


    setup.


    "It''s because of your dear husband. He said you got an injured leg and that you wouldn''t be able to


    drive. Now that he''d left, I''ll be driving you to work. I''ll also be picking you up after work," he exined.


    She was deeply moved. Wesley may have left, but he still made sure she was taken care of. He must


    really care for her to ask Niles to help her. "Okay, I''m heading down now."


    "Can you walk on your own? How about I go up and carry you down?" Niles offered.


    "I''m okay. I''ll be taking the elevator."


    "Okay then." Niles didn''t want to go upstairs after all. He only offered to carry her as courtesy. Although,


    it wasn''t the case that he did not want to carry ir. He was just worried his brother would find out he


    went up. Then he''d be in so much trouble.


    Two days passed and ir noticed her leg was so much better. She didn''t want to bother Niles


    anymore, so she asked him not to drive her to work or pick her up after work anymore.


    "Well, you still need to visit the hospital tomorrow. You need to have your dressing freshened up. If the


    wound has healed, you can go to work on your own."


    "Thank you so much, Niles. You''ve been a great help these past few days."


    "No worries, ir. You can count on me whenever Wesley is not around. I''m his brother, after all."


    ir looked out the car window, her heart full. She would always remember what Wesley had done for


    her.


    Time passed by quickly, and it had already been a month since Wesley left.


    ir''s leg had long healed. She had been quite busy recently.


    There was a party in the evening. She intended to skip the party the moment it was announced. She


    was really tired and was looking forward to getting some rest after work. She was too drained to


    socialize and enjoy the party.


    Orion, however, came to her in person and told her it was necessary she attended the party. A bunch of


    influential and powerful people would be there. It would be a great chance for ir to widen her


    ir was forced into saying yes. As a result, she''d be Orion''s date for the evening.


    ir didn''t realize the party was thrown by the ZL Group until they arrived at the venue. It was filled by


    well-known celebrities.


    James was the CEO of ZL Group. He''d be there for sure. This wasn''t the first time ir had met him,


    but the first time after Colleen had told her what kind of person he was.


    ''He looks so gentle and affable, but deep down, he is cruel and scheming, '' she thought to herself.


    Orion was busy mingling, so ir was also busy tranting for him.


    She then saw Curtis, Colleen, and Damon with his wife. Megan and Niles were also with them.


    Niles waved at her when he saw her. Although, he didn''t approach her. He could tell she was working


    and he didn''t want to interfere.


    ir smiled and nodded at him in response.


    When ir looked away, Niles took some photos of her and sent his brother a message. "Bro, I''m at


    the party held by the ZL Group. ir is here too. She is so stunning! Want her photos?"


    "Of course!" Wesley replied in record time.


    "But you know, I''m kind of living on a shoestring right now," Niles replied.


    Wesley sent him a voice message. "Are you sure you want to y this game with me right now?"


    Niles got annoyed, but he didn''t dare to disobey his brother. Despite his unwillingness, he sent the


    photos of ir to Wesley.


    Wesley got up to his feet at once. He went to a quiet corner where he sat down and lit a cigarette. He


    smoked silently, enjoying his wife''s photos.


    ir was wearing a ck strapless evening gown, a shiny ne and light makeup with red lipstick.


    Her brown hair was tied back in a simple ponytail.


    In the first photo, she was holding a ss of red wine while talking to a woman. Her face was adorned


    by her beautiful smile.


    In the second photo, she was drinking wine, her head slightly raised, revealing her neck.


    Wesley had to admit Niles took great photos. He felt good looking at them.


    He kept on enjoying the photos. In the next one, ir was chatting with a group of people. He was


    about to move on when he saw a hand out of ce.


    Wesley zoomed in the photo. A frown formed on his face. The hand was ced on ir''s waist, too big


    to be a woman''s.


    Wesley''s hand shook a little. The photo he was looking at snapped back to its normal size. He was


    unable to tell whose hand it was by just looking at the picture.


    He found no other trace of the said hand in other photos, so he called Niles. "Where is she?" He did not


    beat around the bush.


    Niles knew who Wesley was referring to. He scanned the area but didn''t find ir. "Huh? This is


    strange. She was just right here."


    "Go find her!" Wesley ordered.


    "Okay, okay. Is everything alright?"


    Wesley remained silent on the other end of the line. "Don''t hang up."


    "Okay, sure." Niles went to look for her everywhere, but he still couldn''t find ir. Both she and Orion


    were nowhere to be found.


    He walked past a corner, and there he heard a familiar voice. "Of course."


    Niles remained quiet as he extended his neck to see where the voice wasing from. He saw a man


    pressing ir against the wall by a window.


    It was pretty dark, and Niles was unable to make out ir''s face. The two looked quite intimate.


    Before he could even say anything, Wesley asked, "Have you found her?"


    "Umm, yeah. She seems to be in big trouble."
