Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1505

Seth's eyebrows twitched as he held his breath. Something wasn't quite right. His boss had been in an awful mood lately!

"Yes, sir."

Seth mumbled, almost whispering. He didn't dare talk too loudly. Wyatt didn't even lift his eyes.

Seth titled his head. Wyatt's indifference was somewhat shocking. What did that mean? Why wasn't Wyatt angry?

After what seemed like a century, Seth finally continued, "What about the case?"

They didn't have any actual evidence, after all. Even if they did continue with it, it wouldn't make too much of a difference!

Wyatt finally lifted his cold gaze. A thought seemed to strike Seth as he hurriedly added.

"He won't be getting a promotion, at least, not any sooner! That Jake Lamer, he's actually a pretty bright guy. He's solved many cases, but he's just a little stubborn and inflexible when it comes to socializing, that's why he's made a few enemies along the way!"

Wyatt tapped his fingers lightly as he narrowed his dark eyes, "Withdraw it, then."

"What?"

Seth's eye widened as he couldn't believe his ears. After everything they've done? And they were just going to withdraw it? That was it?

"Do you know Tom and Jerry, Seth?"

Wyatt lowered his head and continued signing the documents after posing his question.

Seth was a clever man indeed. His eyes continued to widen as he realized what Wyatt was doing. He was playing with them. They dragged him in, made his life h*ll, and they were going to let him go. They'd give him this misperception of peace and freedom, and when he was finally used to his temporary liberty, they'd pull him back in and devastate him. It would be a miserable death indeed!

Wyatt had always been straightforward! Seth never expected someone like him to pull such a trick from his sleeve!

What did that petty officer do to enrage him so much? Was it really all for that woman?

Of course, Seth could only wonder. He dared not ask. "Then," he remained professional, "What's our next step?"

"Three men make a tiger."

"Oh?"

"Again?" Seth blurted out.

Was that what he meant?

The little officer's private life was pretty clean and virtuous. Was Wyatt really going to mess that up for him too?

Wyatt raised his eyes again. A trace of discontent flashed before them. "Yes," Wyatt snorted, dissatisfied with Seth's response.

Seth suppressed his astonishment as much as he possibly could. Was Wyatt really going to play it like that?

It was so troublesome. Should Seth just find Wyatt another woman?

Finding Wyatt another woman would seriously be less problematic than what they were about to do!

Things soon came to an end. Waverly didn't expect that woman to withdraw the complaint herself — her family claimed that she had PTSD, which, in other words, meant that she was mentally abnormal. That was why they decided to just let it go!

The whole thing was just a good-for-nothing! However, she must admit that it was for the best!

Jake Lamer also received his reinstatement letter. Despite that, this incident had already done damage to his career.

Waverly never envisioned the situation to develop in such an odd manner. The climax she anticipated never came. From the beginning till the very end, Wyatt hadn't disclosed his identity, either. Waverly stared at Jake Lamer's reinstatement notice as the thoughts raced through her mind.

Were they really giving up so easily? Had she thought too much?

Nevertheless, Jake seemed satisfied with how everything turned out. After completing his reinstatement procedures, he took Waverly shopping for the whole day. They even ate a bunch of delicacies, too.

The peace and harmony returned to their lives quickly.

Waverly continued her typical life before all the chaos. She worked, she dated. Everything felt so normal and mundane, but something was off. Something was missing. Wyatt was missing. She didn't know why, but the man's absence made her...empty.

Another weekend came in the blink of an eye. Waverly got a call from Jake, which was quite uncommon, and the two of them planned on going on a movie date that night.

Hardships and struggles came with their relationship, but that didn't stop their feelings from heating up.

They didn't start out as vigorously. They weren't together 24/7. Waverly didn't know why, but they weren't as possessive or affectionate as most new couples were. They were like old couples. It was as if they had been together all their lives. They went on dates like old friends, but the sparks of love were still present between them. It was a little complicated, she couldn't really explain it, but the joy outweighed the pain, so why complain?

The two of them got some noodles for dinner before heading to the movie theater, holding hands.

"Let's eat some sunflower seeds instead of popcorn this time!"

Jake turned his head and his heart melted when he saw his lovely girlfriend behind him, "Of course. We can even buy both. You can eat whatever you want! "

"You'll regret spoiling me like that! There are five flavors of popcorn and another five for the seeds! What if I wanted them all?"

Jake chuckled, "I can even get a truckload of food for you if your little belly can take it!" He then reached out and rubbed her tiny hands.

"Waverly, you don't have to compromise for my sake. I won't fall asleep watching romance films, you know!"
