“How did you know?"
Curtis smiled, "Your wife told my wife about that. She mentioned that you were going to pay the down payment for a sea-view house."
Blair exchanged a glance with Wesley, and nodded. She did tell Colleen about their plan to buy a sea-view house, but she didn't expect them to give her one.
It was an expensive gift.
Blair didn't think that Wesley would accept it. However, after hearing
Curtis’ explanation, Wesley grabbed the keys and handed them to Blair
“Keep them."
"But..." ‘This is just too much. How can I accept it?' Blair thought, baffled.
He patted her hand to reassure her.
“They tricked a large fortune out of me when they got married. Damon took one of my precious weapons, which is out of production now. It's more valuable than the car he gave you."
If that was the case, Blair thought it might be okay to accept their gifts. She nodded and took the keys from Wesley
Next came the CEO. Carlos asked casually, "So, you're not going back to work in Alorith?"
“We plan on settling down here, in Askor," Wesley said. He and Blair had discussed it earlier. They wanted to stay by their parents’ side and raise their kid here, alongside them.
Carlos nodded understandingly. He took out a folder, put it on the rotary table and gave the table a twirl. When the folder was in front of Blair, he said to Wesley, "Your wife is a translator, isn't she? I have set up a translation company in Askor." He then Looked at Blair
“You will be the legal representative. Take it."
Wesley fell silent again, for much Longer this time. Everyone Looked at him mischievously, waiting for his reaction. Finally, he broke the silence and spoke.
“You guys are doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
"Yes." Carlos smirked
Wesley turned to Blair.
"Honey, return all the gifts." He then scanned his friends and added, "I will buy my wife everything she wants. I can afford them. Do you have to make me look bad?"
And they all seemed to know what his wife wanted and Liked! He sulked at the thought.
Blair put all the keys and the folder on the table.
Damon teased, "Blair, you're such an obedient wife. But, don't listen to him this time."
Blair shook her head.
"To be honest, I think that your gifts are all way too expensive. I agree with Wesley; we should return them to you."
