Take My Breath Away

Just those few words from Wesley were enough to open her floodgates. Blair had wanted to play it cool, but frustrated, she began to sob. "You coming back… has nothing to do with me. I'm not your leader; you don't need to report to me."

Deep down, her heart was stirred by the serious look on his face. He looked even more charming now.

He was so handsome that she almost forgot the scars he had left in her heart. It's said that in a love-hate relationship, even if the couple torture each other a thousand times, they would still treat each other as their first love—their one true love.

Wesley was her first love. She had been in love with the man for almost a decade.

Ignoring the curious gazes from the passers-by, Wesley pulled the woman into his arms, staring at her lovingly. "I want to have a child."

Blair was caught by surprise at his unexpected words, and her face blushed a crimson red. She pretended to not understand his words and said, "Then go to Patty or Stella. You can't possibly have a baby by staying here."

'I know Patty. But who the hell is Stella?' he wondered. But that was not the point. He said firmly, "I meant, with you. I want to have a child with you. Blair, come back home with me." He was going to show her their marriage licenses at home. A wedding was on his mind.

'Home?' That was such a beautiful word. Blair clutched at the corner of his suit, holding back her tears. She had to stay strong. "No, it's too late. Let go of me. I have a boyfriend now."

"Break up!" Wesley said firmly. If she didn't break up with whosoever she was dating, she was committing a crime. Servicemen's marriage was under special protection in this country.

"Why should I listen to you? Here, take your flowers. Don't disturb me again." She struggled out of his embrace and added, "Listen here. Without Wesley, Blair is having the happiest days of her life!" She threw the box of preserved roses back into his hands and walked away, clicking her high heels loudly.

As she turned her back towards him, his eyes quickly darkened. She was wearing a backless dress! Wesley gritted his teeth. She was not only dating another man during his absence, but was also bold enough to wear such revealing dresses.

Blair walked to her car. Wesley caught up to her and grabbed hold of her wrist. "Blair, let's talk."

"I don't want to talk, Colonel Li... Oh, sorry, Senior Colonel Li. By the way, congratulations on your promotion. Now, please let go of me. There are a lot of men queuing up to talk to me. So, if you want to have a word, please wait for your turn."

"Since you seem to

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

She nodded perfunctorily, "Yeah, how lucky…"

Nonetheless, they decided to sit in their designated seats. They found the seats in no time. The movie was about to begin.

For some unknown reason, Blair felt like someone was watching her from the dark corner of the hall. Intuitively, she looked around the theater, but found nothing suspicious.

'Am I thinking too much?' She shook off the thoughts and focused on the big screen, trying to indulge herself in the movie.

However, at that moment, the door to the theater was flung open. A group of people stormed inside.

Since the lights had been turned off, Blair couldn't see who they were, but she didn't care. However, a moment later, two men in camo fatigues sitting in front of her caught her attention.

It was then that she realized that the seats around them were all occupied.

Her heart began to race rapidly in her chest as something dawned on her. She slowly tilted her head to her left side and found Wesley sitting cross-legged next to her, emitting a graceful aura.

As if sensing her gaze, he slowly turned his head to face her, meeting her eyes. Flashing a smile, he said casually, "Hey honey, what a coincidence."

'H-honey?' Blair almost choked on her own saliva. In a huff, she retorted, "Whom are you calling honey?"

"You."

She rolled her eyes at him. Uninterested in his nonsense, she questioned, "What are you doing here?"

"Seeing a movie."

Blair's colleague heard them talking, but he couldn't hear what they were saying, so he interjected curiously, "Blair, do you know him?"

"No!" Blair denied without hesitation.

The two soldiers sitting in front of them suddenly turned around and smiled at Blair. "Hi Blair! What a coincidence!"
