True Love Waits novel Chapter 763

Wesley called Carlos and asked him about Blair. All Carlos said was, "Blair wanted to leave you. I only offered her a little help." His words stabbed Wesley right in the heart.

Carlos was right. If Blair didn't want to leave him, she would have told Wesley that Carlos had offered to help her leave.

But she hadn't. Her departure had come without warning.

Wesley went to England for advanced studies in business. But he quit not long after.

He found himself not interested in business at all. Instead, he chose to take up the position as the leader of a newly-established organization of the country.

Although he was busy, Wesley never gave up on looking for Blair. He had asked his people to search for her everywhere, including foreign countries.

Something really strange was going on. It was like she had fallen off the map.

In A Country

Two women were shopping in the mall, walking hand in hand. One of the salespeople in the store looked at them with admiration and said, "Looks like the two of you are very close. Are you sisters?"

The two women looked at each other and said in unison, "Yes, we are."

The saleslady then looked at Cecelia and asked, "You are the elder sister, and she is the younger one. Am I right?"

"That's right." Cecelia was delighted by her comments and ended up buying many things from her store.

A rich lady passing by happened to hear their conversation and left the store without greeting Cecelia. She went back home in a hurry and called her friends one after another. "Hey, did you hear? The Li family is in a lot of trouble."

"What happened?"

"Baldwin has a mistress. And his wife has accepted it. I saw Cecelia and the mistress shopping together. They called themselves sisters. The mistress is young and pretty, and it looks like she is pregnant! Her belly is not that big yet, but I could tell from the way she was walking."

"Huh? You've got to be kidding! Baldwin is such an upright man. Besides, he spoils Cecelia so much and everybody knows that he loves her. How's it possible for him to have a mistress?"

The rich lady blew on her nails and retorted, "Come on! No matter how much he loves Cecelia, she is still an old woman now. The mistress is young. She looks like she's still in her twenties. Men like young girls, you know."

"Hmm...you're right."

The rumor that Baldwin had a mistress spread throughout the upper-class community in A Country. If it were some other man in Baldwin's place, people would not have found it strange. But the men of the Li family were all upright and honest. This was unbelievable news. The rumors hit the headlines.

Even Wesley, who was in Z Country, saw the gossips about it on his phone. But he chose to let it run its course.

He called Niles one day. Before he hung up, Niles added, "Mom has recently made friends with a woman. They are close. They go shopping together every day. Mom seldom stays at home anymore."

"Let Dad and Mom solve the issue themselves. You stay out of their matters," Wesley advised. He didn't believe that his father would have a mistress.

"I don't plan on intervening. But Mom is so nice to her new bestie. What if the woman really is Dad's mistress? What if he asks us to call this woman 'Mom'? She is younger than us!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Wesley spat.

"Fine! I trust in Dad too."

"Has she contacted you recently?" Wesley asked.

"Nope." Niles knew that he was referring to Blair, and he was telling the truth. She never contacted him. He was the one who contacted Blair.

Wesley hung up without saying another word.

On Niles' birthday, Wesley called to wish him a happy birthday. But Niles had other stories to tell him. "Mom's bestie gave me a watch for my birthday. I love it!"

'The bestie again?' Wesley frowned. "Who is this woman?"

"Don't worry. Dad had her investigated. There is nothing suspicious about her." If there was something suspicious about Blair, then Wesley would not have been able to get their marriage licenses.

Wesley hung up. He didn't give much thought to his mom's new bestie.

Half a month later, Niles called him. It took him two days to get through. "Wesley, Mom's bestie is pregnant!"
