Mrs. Leonard, you've kept your private life very private indeed. If it weren't for Doctor Niles, we probably would have never known."

“How Lucky of you, Mrs. Leonard”

The Look in the eyes of the people began to change. After all, Blair's husband was the youngest senior colonel with a bright future ahead of him, Some of them even thought if they should curry favor with her.

Blair's smile froze. ‘I just found out that I'm Wesley's wife today, same you guys, ' she thought and secretly rolled her eyes

Faking a smile, she told them, “You are flattering me. I still have some work to finish, so I'll be leaving now. You guys have fun."

“Sure, Mrs. Leonard. Goodbye!"

“Mrs. Leonard, allow me to walk you out."

“Mrs. Leonard, do you know me? We work in the same company. I'm an assistant manager. If you have trouble in the future, please feel free to call me."

“Mrs. Leonard..."

Blair felt mentally exhausted dealing with these people. She could only say "Thank you" repeatedly

She felt as if her face had gone numb from wearing that fake smile the whole time. Even Niles felt annoyed at one point.

After Blair told Orion that she was leaving, she and Niles left the party as soon as they could. Niles rubbed his ears and sighed, "They all want to butter my brother up. I shouldn't have told them that you are my sister-in-law. I'm sorry, Blair."

Blair cast him a casual glance and said, "I guess I'm the most pathetic woman in the world. Many people knew that Wesley and I are married, but

I didn't know anything."

“Maybe...Wesley had his own reasons for doing that." Niles tried to comfort her.

“His own reasons?"

“Yeah.”

‘What reasons could those be? Marriage is no small thing, yet he had it done without my knowledge and consent. He didn't even respect me enough to tell about it!"

Niles drove Blair back to the Eastern Coastal Apartments. The marriage was the only thing lingering in her mind. After she got out of his car, she waved her hand at him before heading into the apartment building

“Hey, you didn't even say goodbye," Niles shouted from inside the car

Blair turned her head and asked in confusion, “Pardon?”

“Nothing. Niles felt helpless.

“I'd better leave her alone, * he thought.

Blair nodded and kept moving forward.

She clearly remembered the date on the marriage license. It was just a few days after they had their first time.
