True Love Waits

Chapter 714 Have A Craving For A Smoke

Wesley only had a few days of vacation to enjoy and now he was being summoned again.

Knowing that he couldn't decline this task, Wesley had no choice but to accept it. He straightened up and saluted the old leader. "Yes, sir. Thank you for your trust. I'll make sure to carry out the task successfully!"

"Good. Go back and pack your luggage. You need to set out this afternoon."

"Yes, sir!"

After coming out from the old leader's office, Wesley absentmindedly walked to a corner and took out his lighter. He groped his pockets for a cigarette, but he couldn't find one.

It dawned on him that he had quit smoking for some time now because he wanted to have a baby with Blair. Now that he was assigned with a task again and would be leaving home, he had to put his plan aside. That meant that a cigarette was in order.

He hurried back to the apartment, hoping to see Blair there. Or if possible, he wanted to have sex with her one more time before he set out.

However, the apartment was quiet. She was probably at work.

Dejected, he walked towards his bedroom to pack his luggage. When he walked through the living room, he happened to notice a glass and a box of medicine on the table.

He grabbed the box and took a closer look. To his astonishment, it was a box of birth control pills.

Upon realizing what they were, he quickly opened the box and checked it. A few pills were missing. Blair must have taken them.

In an instant, his face darkened. He desperately wanted to have a baby with Blair, but she had been secretly taking birth control pills.

Drowning in a mixture of anger and sadness, he gripped the box tightly, crumpling it, and then tossed it into the bin.

Meanwhile, Blair was handling the work that Rebecca had left behind, when suddenly she got a call from Wesley. "Come downstairs. I'm in front of your company building," he said. Blair was perplexed. What was he doing there at this hour? "What's going on? Did something happen?"

"Yes."

Blair immediately hung up the phone and went downstairs.

She easily spotted the black Hummer and Wesley smoking a cigarette in the distance.

'Didn't he say that he would quit smoking? Why is he smoking now?' she wondered in confusion as she walked towards him.

Wesley put out the cigarette and threw it into the bin. When she was standing in front of him, he went straight to the point. "I'm being deployed to the border area of the country this afternoon."

'The border area?' "Hmm." Blair gave a slight nod, betraying no emotion on her face.

Wesley looked her in the eye and added, "I'll be gone for three to six months. It depends."
