True Love Waits

Chapter 551 I Can Stand The Heat

Wesley fixed his eyes on Blair and sneered, "You think I'm bullying Talbot? Are you trying to protect him from me?" "Talbot cooked for us, cleaned the house and washed the dishes. Are you not moved at all?" Blair asked in return. Wesley was about to say something when the room went dark. The electricity had gone off.

"What happened?" Blair asked as she unlocked her phone.

Wesley stood up from the sofa, fished out his phone and opened the flashlight application. "You sit here. I'll go take a look."

"Okay." Blair had her phone light on to light Wesley's path.

The two of them lived in the same housing estate, so their main power switches had been installed likewise. He found it soon enough, and after checking it, he didn't find anything wrong.

At that moment, they received a text message from the State Grid. It said, "Dear resident, sorry to inform you..." It turned out that all the apartments in the housing estate were out of power and they were not sure when it would come back on.

Blair was at a loss for words. It was summer!

"I'll go buy some candles," Wesley offered.

When he arrived at the door to change his shoes, he saw Talbot and Blair chatting under the flashlight. He immediately changed his mind. "Blair, you are more familiar with the housing estate. You go buy the candles."

Blair agreed without hesitation.

She walked towards the door, but when she turned back to look at the dark apartment, she figured it was an excellent opportunity to bond with Wesley. She didn't want to miss this chance, so she told Talbot, "Talbot, will you go buy the candles? I'm scared of the dark."

Talbot nodded. Blair told him the location of the grocery store cheerfully. When he was about to leave, he turned back to look at his superior and his dream girl. 'Something is not right,' he thought.
