Chapter 684 I Love You


"Beats me. Why don't you call Grandpa and ask him about it? But the mission is highly confidential. Grandpa probably doesn't know much about it. Prepare for the worst," Niles told Blair. Wesley could be assigned to a mission and no one would know when he'd be back. It was an occupational hazard. Niles got used to it. Maybe Blair needed to be, too.

"Okay," Blair said.

"Blair, you're so lucky to have someone like my brother. I'd marry rich, too, if I were a chick."

"It's not too late. You still have time," Blair joked.

"I've got a star to pursue in this life. I got you a birthday present too. I sent it off a few days ago. You're welcome. I'm your brother-in-law, after all. Remember that, next time my brother decides to beat me up. Bye."

"Um, bye."

Sitting in the lounge, staring at the bunny, Blair didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

'I hate you, Wesley! I hate you! I hate you!

You didn't tell me anything about being deployed elsewhere. You've been gone for two months and didn't call me even once. And now on my birthday you give me two big surprises!' Blair complained inside, touching the diamond ring in her pocket.

'But why did he tell the delivery guy he was my husband? The other day, when he drove me home, he also told my roommate he was my husband.

Is he planning on proposing?

No, probably not. That's not his style.

I could probably die of old age before he decided to propose.

Ack! This is so depressing.'

After work, Blair went to her uncle's for dinner. The Ji family threw her a birthday party.

By the time she got back to her dorm, she had two other birthday presents waiting for her, one from Niles and the other from Cecelia, both expensive. Blair gave them each a phone call to say thank you. The night wore on, but Blair still couldn't sleep. She stared at the diamond ring and the bunny. He asked her to wait for him, but for how long? Till she was so old her hair turned white and she had no teeth left? There were words engraved on the inside of the band, "I Love You."

She wondered whether Wesley had had them engraved or they came with the ring.
