Chapter 1565
She guessed he must’ve taken the stairs, rather than the elevator.
Expressionless, she said, “Hi, Wesley.”
Wesley threw her a quick glance.
“Your uncle asked me to check on you.”
‘Uncle Adalson is so concerned about my love life. He helps out a lot,
* she thought, though her head was heavy and all she wanted was rest.
Blair merely nodded and added, “Thanks.”
She didn’t invite him in, and he really didn’t want to do that, either.

Wesley nodded his head. Before he left, he caught a glimpse of her bright red and weary face. Her eyelids drooped. She didn’t seem all right. But he didn’t press the issue.
Watching him go back to his apartment and shut the door without giving her a second glance, Blair smiled bitterly and closed her own door
She plodded back to her bedroom and hit the hay at once. She was fast asleep in no time, thanks to the fever.
It barely seemed Like she closed her eyes when a doorbell invaded her sleep. But it was faint. She wondered if she was dreaming. She kept her eyes closed and drifted off.
Wesley stood outside her apartment and called Adalson.
“Hi Uncle
Adalson, what’s the password to Blair’s apartment?”
On the other side of the line, Adalson was stunned for a moment.
“Why?
What’s up? Is she okay?”
Wesley thought of Blair’s red face earlier and replied, “I know what I said, but something didn’t feel right. I’m ringing her doorbell, and she’s not answering.”
Adalson told him the password and reminded him, “Let me know!” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Sure, Uncle.”
In her dream, Blair felt a big hand on her forehead. She wanted to open her eyes to see who it was, but no matter how she tried, she just couldn’t open her heavy lids.
