True Love Waits

Chapter 659 You Have No Right

Niles sent Blair a nodding-head emoji.

Whistling a peaceful tune, he tucked his phone back into his pocket, just outside Wesley's ward.

He was about to push the door open when he saw what was going on inside through the glass window. Wesley wasn't alone-Garnet was with him.

Mouth agape, he fished out his phone, opened the camera app and raised it. But he found Wesley looking at him with his sharp eyes. 'That guy must have eyes in the back of his head!' Niles exclaimed inwardly.

Under Wesley's watchful eye, Niles covertly took a photo of him and Garnet, pretending to call someone, phone to his ear. After a few seconds, he abandoned his pretense and sent the pic to Blair. "You busy now? Check this out," he texted, indicating the pic he had just taken.

And that was when Garnet appeared at the door.

Niles clicked the "send" button, put his phone back into his pocket, and waved at her with a smile. "Hi, Garnet. Come by to visit Wesley?"

Garnet nodded. "Yeah."

"Wait. How did you... Oh, that's right! You transferred to the base in Y City, huh?" His family talked about helping Garnet get a transfer to Y City, so Niles naturally knew a bit about it.

"Mmm hmm. Your brother helped a lot." Garnet cast a grateful glance at the man in the bed.

Niles whistled at his brother, came over and flashed a goofy smile. "He's a piece of work. With his contacts and reputation, it was a piece of cake to get you deployed here. Right, Wesley?" He tried to lick his brother's boots because he was afraid of being found out.

Wesley, however, didn't buy it. With a deadpan face, he spat, "Your phone."

"Huh?" Niles panicked. 'I guess he knows. Am I that obvious?' he mused.

Garnet couldn't help giggling. "Niles, you forgot to turn off your flashlight," she reminded him kindly.
