Chapter 754 I''m With Uncle Wesley
Cecelia smiled and said, "Okay, I see. I''m relieved to hear that."
Wesley came back home at night around 9 p.m. As soon as he came in, he saw the unexpected visitor
sitting in the living room. Mother and son stared at each other for a minute, before he broke the silence
in the end. "What are you doing here? Do you need something?"
"Yes." Cecelia nodded her head. "I came to see how far you two are with my grandson!"
Wesley''s lips twitched. ''Grandson? ir''s not even pregnant yet.'' He figured Cecelia wanted a
grandson so desperately that she had lost her mind.
He hung his overcoat on the coat rack and said, "Niles is dating a girl. Go to him if you want a
grandson."
Cecelia scoffed, "Who knows if he''s serious with the girl? I don''t trust him. You and ir are my hope."
Her determined eyes were suggesting that she wasn''t going to give in. In fact, she made it sound like
she wouldn''t leave their apartment unless they gave her a grandson. Wesley averted the topic and
asked, "Where is my wife?"
"She''s taking a bath." Suddenly, her eyes widened with excitement. "She just went in. Go, go and join
her now," she urged.
Wesley was rendered speechless. What a "thoughtful" mother!
Cecelia spent the following days with them in their apartment. She showed no signs of leaving and no
one asked her to leave either.
From the looks of it, she had a great time supervising the two kids every day and making sure that they
went to bed on time.
Every night she would lean against the door of their bedroom and if she didn''t hear a sound, she would
knock just to check up on what they were doing. Tonight was the same.
ir had a face mask on while she was chatting with Joslyn on the phone and Wesley was working on
hisptop.
When Cecelia didn''t hear the kind of noise she expected, she started banging on the door at once.
"Wesley!"
Puzzled, Wesley rushed to the door in his pajamas afraid that something bad had happened. Cecelia
peeked inside and said to him, "Where is your wife?"
He sighed and took a step backwards to let his mother see ir.
The moment ir looked at the door and met with Cecelia''s eyes, thetter waved at her awkwardly.
Cecelia pulled Wesley close and muttered, "Stop wasting time and go to bed now. Don''t forget your
mission. A baby! Are you feeling tired? Maybe I need to get you some Chinese medicines to give you
more stamina and power..."
Exasperated, the soldier brought the palm of his hand to his face and sighed, "Mom, please stop
whatever it is you think you''re doing. Shouldn''t you be taking care of Dad? Without you at home, Dad
and Grandpa must be very bored. You should go back and take care of them."
Cecelia understood clearly that her son was running out of patience. "I won''t bug you anymore. Just try
your best, okay? You can do this!" With that, she turned around and disappeared into her room.
Wesley shook his head in disbelief.
After living with Cecelia for a few more days, ir couldn''t keep up with her anymore and neither could
Wesley. Luckily, he found an excuse to take ir to Z Country for a trip again, leaving Cecelia with no
choice but to go back home.
After they came back from their trip in Z Country, one day, Wesley received a call from Megan saying
that she was in trouble. However, when Wesley asked her what had happened, she didn''t give him any
details; instead, she insisted that hee see her as soon as possible.
This time, however, without even asking for ir''s opinion, Wesley took the initiative to turn Megan
down straightaway. "No, just tell me what it is on the phone. I''m busy." Wesley was, in fact, cooking his
beloved wife a nice meal. He wouldn''t leave ir alone to see another woman unless it was a life-and-
death situation.
Eventually, after a long pause of silence, Megan hung up the call. The beeping sound that came after
was Wesley''s cue to realize what had happened and he put his phone away.
ir was leaning against the doorframe of the kitchen and eating an apple as she gave Wesley a
knowing eyeful. "Is she in danger again? Aren''t you going to help her?"
Wesley shook his head, as if unconcerned. "She didn''t tell me what happened. I don''t have the time to
try and figure out what''s on her mind." Wesley was well aware of how ir felt about Megan. Taking his
previous experience into ount, he thought it would be best for him to keep a distance from Megan.
ir enjoyed the rest of the delicious apple joyfully. She raised the half-eaten apple to his lips. "You
can take a bite from my apple. This is your reward," she joked.
"Thanks." Wesley put down the knife and nodded as he moved away from the counter. Then suddenly,
he pulled her by the waist and kissed her lips. It was slow and soft,forting in ways that words
would never be.
After a long kiss, ir red at him, panting. "I asked you to bite the apple. Not me!" She pouted her
lips at him.
"I was just tasting the apple." He leaned in and licked her lips.
ir gasped in shock. The color infused cheeks dimpled with the blossoming smile and her eyes shone
in a way that only deep happiness could bring. "What are you doing? You shameless oaf!"
"What did you say to me? Say it again?" Wesley stopped cutting vegetables again and squinted his
eyes at her, like a predator eyeing its prey.
ir wasted no time. She made a face at him, sticking out her tongue and ran out of the kitchen.
"Nope. I didn''t say anything. Please don''t let me distract you from cooking."
Wesley giggled as he watched her flee and continued to wash the freshly diced vegetables.
One day, ir received a text from Megan. "Hi, ir. Do you know what Wesley is doing now?"
ir rolled her eyes at the text, clearly annoyed by Megan. The girl just wouldn''t stop trying to stir up
trouble.
ir obviously knew what Wesley was doing. He told her that he was going to be busy with the
retirement application before he went out, which would mean that he would be in the military base
today.
ir, however, had no intentions of ying nice with Megan. "Get lost!" she texted back.
A minuteter, Megan sent her a picture of her holding hands with a man. "I''m with Uncle Wesley. I was
feeling ufortable so he''s taking me to a hotel," she wrote.
The picture didn''t show the man''s face, but ir could see that he was dressed in a green uniform.
Judging by the background, the picture seemed to have been taken inside a building. The decoration
suggested that it was a hotel.
ir remembered that Wesley was wearing the same green uniform when he went out this morning.
Before ir could text back, Megan sent another message. "We''re entering a hotel room now. Room
301 on the seventh floor, Elton International Hotel. I''ll let you knowter how your man betrays you."
ir''s brain stuttered for a moment and every part of her went on pause while her thoughts caught up.
She immediately called Wesley''s phone. "Sorry, the number you''ve dialed is not in service..." His phone
was switched off.
ir paced back and forth in the study. Her brain formted no thoughts other than to register that she
was shocked.
It wasn''t that she didn''t trust Wesley, but Megan and Patty were both special cases. Wesley would
surely refuse any indecent suggestion from Megan, but that girl was so good at acting that she couldn''t
be trusted at all. The mere thought of Megan flirting with Wesley made ir feel ufortable.
''Maybe I can just go and take a look. It will help stop my worries, '' she thought.
She put on her overcoat, changed into her shoes and left the apartment in a jiffy. She hailed a cab and
went straight to Elton International Hotel.
Before long, ir found herself standing in front of Room 301. She took a deep breath and called
Wesley''s phone once again.
This time, however, the call went through on the first go. "Wesley?"
The noise from the other end made it difficult for her to hear clearly.
She raised her voice and called out, "Wesley? Where are you now?"
"Mrs. Li? Chief left his phone here. He got out of the car to talk with an acquaintance. Do you need to
talk to him now?" A man''s voice came from the other end. It sounded like one of Wesley''s
subordinates.
At longst, she heaved a sigh of relief. "So, where is he now?"
"We just finished an urgent task. We''re heading back downtown now."
''Heading back downtown?
Oh, crap!''
Suddenly, ir realized that this must be one of Megan''s tricks and she quickly turned around to leave.
However, before she knew it, the door to Room 301 flung open and someone grabbed hold of her neck
and covered her mouth before dragging her inside the room.
ir dropped her phone on the floor, but the man kicked it inside. There was another man inside the

room with them. He picked up her phone and disconnected the call at once. Standing with his back to
ir, the man secretly did something on her phone before closing the door.
