After all, he had hurt her so many times during the past few years. He didn't blame her for turning him down.

He only hoped that she would feel better and forget about the miserable past after getting the chance to turn him down just the way he had done to her.

Staring at the shining diamond ring on her finger, Blair stammered in a guilty voice, “Wesley, I-"

He interrupted her, “You turned me down this time. But I won't give up.

I'll keep proposing to you until you say yes." If she didn't say yes soon, their wedding would have to be postponed. He didn't want this to happen.

He had promised her that he would throw a wedding after coming back from Dreles, and he meant to keep that promise. He would make her say yes willingly.

Wesley took her to where Joslyn was standing, wide-mouthed. She patted the back of Blair's hand lightly and said, “Are you an idiot? You have been in love with him since you were seventeen. Now, you are twenty-seven! It's been ten years. You've long been looking forward to marrying this man. Why did you turn him down? Are you mad?"

Joslyn wished she could open up Blair's skull and Look what her brain was made of.

Wesley held Blair's hand and told Joslyn, “She just got back at me for turning her down Last time. And now, we are even. When I propose to her next time, she will say yes." He turned to Blair.

“You will, won't you?"

Staring into his eyes, Blair couldn't help but nod.

"Yes, I will."

If he was willing to propose to her again, she would definitely agree.

Talbot brought a bunch of roses which had been prepared by Wesley earlier.

“Chief, here you are.”

Wesley received it from him and gave it to Blair.

“These are for you. I haven't bought you any flowers in a long time. I'm sorry."

Blair didn't know how to respond. She regretted her promise to Carlos from two days ago.

Wesley drove Joslyn home first and then drove back to their apartment.

Back home, Blair looked at the flowers in her hands, deep in thought.

Wesley kissed her forehead.

"Blair, I'm sorry. I won't make you suffer anymore."

He swore to himself that he would protect her with his own life.

Blair said nothing; she felt lost.

Before long, Wesley left the apartment because he still had tons of work to finish. Sitting in their apartment alone, she felt a deep regret.
