Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Pardon Me

When everything was said and done, Yuliana’s legs were weak.

Wesley’s fingers tugged at her earlobe playfully as he asked, “Did you like that?”

Yuliana’s mind was in a clamor. Without thinking, she shook her head and leaned against his chest as her breathing grew even.

At the sight of this, Wesley chuckled and did not say anything else.

Just like that, they enjoyed the comfortable silence for a while.

Then, Wesley murmured, “Yuliana, I’m leaving Juxshire tomorrow.”

Stunned, Yuliana nudged out of his embrace and asked, “How long will you be gone?”

“A couple of days, maybe, but that’s just an estimate,” Wesley answered.

Yuliana knew the nature of his work and did not press him further, merely saying, “Be safe. I’ll be right here waiting for you.”

After that, Wesley waited until Yuliana had fallen asleep before leaving the room.

He had only just come down the stairs when he saw that Hailey was still up. She was seated on the living room couch holding a needle and thread. Apparently, she was stitching up a bunny plushie with a torn ear.

Hailey heard someone coming down the stairs and turned around. When she saw Wesley, she set her sewing task aside and stood up, then smiled as she asked, “Are you leaving now, Mr. Duncan?”

Wesley nodded. “I didn’t think you’d still be up, Hailey.”

“Well,” she began as she glanced at the plushie on the couch, “Roe really likes this bunny. He brought it out for playtime two days ago and accidentally tore its ear, and he cried his heart out. I promised him I’d fix it up for him.”

However, it had been some time since Hailey did any kind of sewing, and she had a hard time locating her sewing kit. Thankfully, she found it today and decided to stitch up the bunny plushie.

“Mr. Duncan…”

Sensing Hailey’s hesitation, Wesley prompted, “What is it, Hailey? You can tell me anything.”

Hailey knew her place. She was considerably relaxed around Yuliana and Rowan, but when it came to anyone else, she tended to proceed with caution.

That being said, Wesley was Yuliana’s friend, and he was a guest, to boot. As the housekeeper, Hailey knew she had to stick to boundaries.
