True Love Waits

Chapter 660 I Just Want To Keep You Company

Wesley wasn't in patient clothing. He was wearing a green army T-shirt, camouflage pants and black boots-military fatigues.

His sudden appearance reminded Blair of Garnet. She was so jealous she didn't want to talk to him. However, he saved her again, so she couldn't just ignore him. "Hi, Colonel Li," she said. 'Whenever she's mad at me, she calls me Colonel Li, 'Wesley thought.

He thought that she was acting really weird. 'She said she loved me, but she shared a hug with Orion. Now she's mad at me.

What did I do this time?'

Wesley stood beside her bed and stared at her bandage-wrapped feet and fingers. Seven digits total were covered with bandages, leaving only three fingers on her left hand free. 'So she typed those messages with only three fingers?' Wesley felt both amused and heartbroken.

"It was my fault you were kidnapped," he said apologetically. Blair was totally innocent. He felt bad that she was hurt because of him.

'Why's he being so formal?' Blair bit her lower lip and said in a low voice, "It was not your fault, but those thugs'."

"All of them are behind bars now." He made sure they paid for their crimes. They had gotten back double whatever they had done to Blair.

"Good to know." Then she remembered she wasn't talking to him, so she clammed up.

Although she was not a chatterbox like Niles, she could hold her own in conversation.

"Get some rest." Wesley guessed she was still weak and didn't have the strength to talk, so he prepared to leave.

"Wesley!" Blair called out and raised her head abruptly.

Wesley paused and turned to look at her. "Could you stay? At least for a little bit?" she pleaded.
