‘Oh, poor Niles
Blair felt so sorry for the guy. He had to be completely confused.
But Wesley was partly responsible for this. What he said to Cecelia just made things worse.
The three of them continued shopping in the plaza.
On the other side, Niles looked at his phone, confusion written all over his face. He couldn’t make sense of this. He wondered why Wesley and Blair hadn’t explained anything to his mom.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore he could compose himself from Cecelia’s tantrum, his phone rang again. This tit was Keith.

“Hi Grandpa! What’s up? Everything going okay?”
Ignoring his unctuous words, Keith asked in a stern voice, “You busy now? I have something to tell you.”
“Yeah, I’m busy. Busy getting my ass chewed by my mom. Busy keeping my anger in check.” That was true. He was indeed feeling angry and gloomy.
Keith cut to the chase.
“Leave Blair to your brother. I’ll make it up to you sother way.” After scareful analysis, the old man was certain that Wesley had feelings for Blair.
Niles was Lively and outgoing. His EQ was higher than his brother’s. If the two brothers fell in love with the sgirl, Wesley would lose.
It wasn’t easy for Wesley to have a thing for someone, but now Niles took Blair away from him. Keith felt sad for his elder grandson.
‘Make it up to me?’ Niles’ eyes Lit up. ‘Leave Blair to my brother? Of course no problem. I’m not her boyfriend in the first place.’ However, he pretended to be sad and retorted, “I get what you mean. But…
That’s not fair. I don’t have a girlfriend either. I…” He deliberately paused with a sob.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeith sighed helplessly.
“I know how you feel. I know it’s not fair.
But Niles, you know your brother. He’s an idiot about love. I tried to set him up, but his bad temper frightened his dates away…” The old man let out a heavy sigh again.
Niles played along and replied in a sorrowful voice, “Yeah, Grandpa, I know my brother. Fine, if he loves Blair too, then I’ll give up on her.
After all, I only have one brother.”
Keith was stunned for a moment when he heard Niles promise so quickly
He was suspicious. Although the Leonard family always kicked him around, Niles was actually a very cunning guy. The boy’s voice sounded a little sad, but Keith could see right through him. He didn’t sound sad enough. Nonetheless, he replied, “Well, I’m glad you like your brother so much.”
Niles had an idea. After a pause, he said, “I’m still sad, Grandpa.
Could you try and be more upbeat? Okay, never mind. You’re not good at that. So if I give up Blair, what’s in it for me?”
