“I'm not a kid. Your trick won't work on me," she said in a playful voice.
Wesley bit his tongue and winked at her as he took the empty bowl to the kitchen.
In the evening, the two of them lay in bed together, Blair's head on his arm. Wesley was playing on his phone when suddenly Blair called out, "Wesley!"
“Hmm?" He cast a glance at her and then looked back at his phone screen.
“Why are you not mad at me?" she asked.
Wesley locked his phone and put it aside. He kissed her on the lips and then asked, “Why should I be mad at you?"
"Niles and I..." she stammered.
“He wouldn't dare," he simply said.
Besides, Wesley knew his brother very well. Niles only ever regarded
Blair as his sister-in-law.
If she had known that Wesley wouldn't fall for it, Blair wouldn't have made a fool of herself.
Suddenly, Wesley's phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and then looked at the woman next to him.
"Sweetie, I need to take this call on the balcony."
Blair's heart sank. ‘Why does he have to answer that phone call on the balcony?' “Is it something serious?" she asked.
After a pause, Wesley stammered, "It's no big deal. Just Megan calling..." Since Blair disliked Megan, he guessed that she might not want to hear him talking to her. So he decided to leave the bedroom to answer the phone.
Blair released him and said in a calm voice, "Okay."
From experience, she knew that Megan was trying to create more trouble.
Wesley went to the balcony and answered the phone.
“Hello?”
After Listening to her, he furrowed his brows and said, “But I thought you were gonna stay there for a while. Why are you back already?”
He then cast a glance at Blair, who was lying in bed and looking straight at him. When he heard Megan's request from the other end of the line, he thought for a moment and finally turned her down.
"I can't come to the airport now. I'll arrange someone else to pick you up.”
After a while, he answered, "No, I'm not busy with work. I'm keeping
Blair company." He never Lied.
“Okay. Bye."
