He made eye contact with her. But pretending not to notice her signal, he moved his eyes to hisgrandfather and began to explain what happened that day.

Snapping back to reality, Niles wanted to catch up to the two women walking ahead of him, but Wesleygrabbed him by his collar and dragged him back.

“Hey, let go. I have something to ask Blair.”

Keith shifted his sharp and observant eyes between his two grandsons.

He could sense they were hiding something. Squinting at them, he asked outright, “You know who sheis?”

Niles shook his head, but on second thoughts, he nodded.

“Not really, but Wesley does.”

Wesley instantly cast him a warning glance. Niles flinched in fear and moved his eyes away, avoidingany eye contact with his brother.

“Okay, that answers my question.” Keith slowed his pace as he was deep in thought. ‘So Wesley likesher?’ That was something new to the old man. From what he knew, Wesley never showed any interestin girls.

Megan was the only girl around him.

Seeing his grandfather’s contemplative face, Wesley had no choice but to remind him, “Don’t read toomuch into that, Grandpa. She’s engaged.”

“Oh…yeah.” Keith shook his head.

“What a shame…”

“But wait. I noticed Wesley looking at her, and then looking away before their eyes could meet, ‘ the oldman suddenly realized.

Wesley thought his family would drop it, so he sighed with relief.

However, his grandfather suddenly questioned, “Do you like her? Did you try dating her? Or is it theother way round? She Loved you but you turned her down?”

Wesley’s heart skipped a beat. He felt like a secret was discovered out of the blue. Sometimes it wasn’ta good thing to have a smart grandfather.

Wesley wanted to deny everything, but his grandfather added sternly,

“Wesley, listen. Think it over before you answer. I’ve told you many times. An honest man is a goodman. Don’t lie to me.”

Niles was trying his hardest to stifle his laughter. Nonetheless, still one or two laughs reached Wesley’sears. The officer glared at the young doctor. He would remember that. Then he turned to the old managain.

“You’ve gotta be tired. That was a long flight. I’ll explain it to you after you get some rest.”

“Alright. Keith knew he shouldn’t push Wesley too hard. Anyway, his grandson would have to confesseverything to him sooner or later

On the other hand, Blair had a hard time explaining herself to Wesley’s mother.

“Wesley…he… I’ve admired him for a long time. But that’s all. It’s nothing. Besides, I’ve got a fianceand we’ll get married after I graduate.”

Although Cecelia liked Blair, she knew she shouldn’t press the issue, since Blair was already engaged.You shouldn’t break up a couple. So she stopped asking about Wesley and Blair. Before they got intheir cars, Wacian told the Leonard family, “Grandpa Keith, my grandpa knows you’re here, so we’rehaving a dinner party. We’ve booked a room. How about we head to the restaurant now?”
