"A lot of people said that. Everyone doubted our chief''s sexual preference after he turned down ir''s proposal. We all thought he was gay. But, look at what the man''s doing now? Tsk, tsk, the girl''s scared by his passionate kiss," one of the men remarked, smiling mischievously.


    "The girl he''s embracing right now is ir, for your information. She was trapped by the sh floods which came in South Mountain. You know, our chief rushed to save her himself."


    "Hey I heard that story too. They said that our chief risked his life and jumped into the rushing river current to rescue a woman. Once he had carried the woman to a safe ce, he himself was washed away by the flood. So was the woman ir too?"


    "What''s our chief thinking? He loves ir. We all can see that. But she had proposed to him once in a high-profile manner, and he said no at that time. Why? You know, if I were ir, I wouldn''t even give him a single nce now, not to say let him kiss me."


    "You only say that because you have no idea how much ir loves our chief."


    "Tsk, tsk, listen to you! Do you think you are an expert at love?"


    Lenard touched his chin and concluded amidst their fervent discussions, "Our chief is the typical breed of man: aloof on the outside, but soft as a squishy brain on the inside."


    This group of gossiping men were Wesley''s subordinates. They hade there to find Wesley and ask him to join a get-together. They hadn''t expected to witness such a romantic and thrilling scene.


    Wesley treated them like good friends in private, so they all knew everything about Wesley''s estates in Y City, including this apartment. They also knew that it belonged to his brother.


    Before Wesley had left the toon, he had told his men that his family hade, and he was going to go to his brother''s apartment that night. That was why Lenard and the other soldiers hade to this apartment to wait for him to show up.


    They thought that they''d hidden themselves well and wouldn''t be found easily. But suddenly, Wesley opened his eyes and let go of the woman in his arms. He tilted his head to look in a direction, a dangerous look in his eyes. In the dark, Talbot felt like Wesley''s eyes were staring right at him, merciless and cruel. If he were to take them as robbers, god help them!


    He held his breath and hissed to the others, "Don''t move. Chief has discovered us!"


    "Normally, our leader should''ve discovered us the moment he stepped out of the car, but he''s a few minuteste this time. Seems like he''s overly tempted by the beautiful girl," a soldier whispered in a husky voice.


    When ir finally opened her eyes, she saw Wesley staring in some direction. She followed his gaze and f


    d child." She sighed, "He saw how much I had to suffer to give birth. I told him many times I wanted a daughter, because daughters are always warm and considerate.


    Then he told me that I would have two warm and considerate daughters-inw in the future, so why do I have to give birth to a daughter and suffer pain myself?"


    After a pause, she looked at ir and continued, "You know, there are always problems between a mother-inw and a daughter-inw. I''m worried that the young aren''t usually willing to live with the elders, or we may have difficultiesmunicating with the young."


    ir nodded in understanding. Indeed, the rtionship between a mother-inw and a daughter-inw could be sensitive sometimes. It was social phenomenon that urred more than often. "But you''re a nice person. I think you''ll surely get along with your future daughter-inw. There won''t be a problem in your case," sheforted the anxious mother.


    On hearing her words, Cecelia was thrilled. She turned her body around and looked at ir. "You said the same things as my husband. He always says that my personality is like a child. I''m good with people, so I won''t have problems getting along with anyone. If I treat my daughter-inw like my own daughter, she will surely treat me as a real mother. ir, is that what you think too?"


    ir suddenly felt baffled. Why was she asking her that? She wondered if she should take this opportunity to exin her rtionship with Niles. But then she decided against it. She''d better off finding a more suitable opportunity to tell the happy mother. If Cecelia knew the truth now, she might end up having a sleepless night. So she nodded, "Yes, I think so too. People should have mutual respect towards each other. Heart to heart, that''s the basic rule."
