Blair Looked around. This was a military hospital with heavy security, and almost no one was on this floor. At the moment, only the three of them stood in front of the elevator. ‘Who is this guy? And why did he callthat?’ Blair wondered, shocked.
She then heard Wesley tell the young man off.
“Dude! You okay? How are your eyes? How about your brain? Need a doctor?”
Confused by his words, Niles looked at the unhappy man and rubbed his eyes.
“No. What are you talking about?”

Ignoring the bad-tempered man, Niles turned to look at the dazed girl, and greeted her with a big smile, “Hi Blair. I’m Niles Lenoard,

Wesley’s younger brother. Actually, we met once at my university. You were the excellent English interpreter at the seminar…”
With his reminder, Blair finally remembered who he was. Surprise written all over her face, and she said excitedly, “Oh, it was you! I remember you made a speech as the student representative!”
It turned out that he was Wesley’s brother. If she’d known that earlier, she would’ve been friendlier.
The two greeted each other enthusiastically, as if they were old friends who hadn’t been together for a long time.
Nodding vigorously, Niles said, “Yeah, that was me. Hey, your face still Looks pale. You should maybe stay another couple days? I guess you’ve already been discharged.” The elevator arrived on their floor again. Niles naturally followed them in.
As Blair walked inside, she replied, “Thanks, but I’m good. What I need now is rest, and I can do that at home.”
Wesley had been listening to the two without a word. But his face had darkened considerably as they talked.
They didn’t spend long in the elevator. As soon as they walked out of the inpatient department, a rush of hot air blew over their faces. The sun was hung high in the blue sky.
Wesley continued walking forward. Blair was about to follow him but

“I think my brother’s bringing the car around. Just wait here. It’s too hot to walk.”
Niles was being so considerate. Blair was moved. Too bad Wesley couldn’t be like that.
Hearing him, Wesley turned around to look at his brother. He changed his mind and threw his car keys to the young doctor.
“You can get the car.”
Niles reflexively cupped his hands to catch the car keys. Shocked, he asked, “Why me?”
“Because I’m older. Just do it
Niles was speechless. He refused in a low voice, “No way.”
Wesley cast him a sharp look, and it was enough to make the young doctor cower in fear.
