Keith furrowed his brows. ‘Blair and Niles?’ “That’s not right,” he muttered as he turned to leave.
Back in his bedroom, Keith couldn’t stop thinking about it. He tried closing his eyes, but sleep wouldn’t come. Eventually, he decided to call Wesley.
By then, Wesley had just finished his work. Surprised to receive a call from his grandpa in the dead of the night, he asked, “Grandpa, why are you still up? Something happen?”
“Is Blair living in Niles‘ apartment?” Keith asked, cutting straight to the point.

“Yeah. She has just broken up with her fiance and needed a place to stay.”

Wesley didn’t think he needed to explain anything.
But that was exactly why his family had gotten things so twisted
Keith hung up after hearing Wesley’s reply. That night, he didn’t sleep a wink.
He had never seen Wesley with anyone but Megan. Now that he had a thing for Blair, how could she be with Niles?

He could tell that Wesley liked Blair. But he couldn’t figure out why she was with Niles. He felt bad for his older grandson.
Early the next morning, Keith called Wesley again.
“Wesley, I have got the cure for your blues. The granddaughter of a friend of mine has just completed her studies abroad. I’ve seen her picture. Beautiful. She has huge… eyes. I think you’ll like her. Why not cback hand meet her? A restaurant would be a better place than the army base.”

Wesley felt a headache coming on.
“Grandpa, you toldthat a man should be ambitious and driven, not confused by love.”
“That’s true. I told you that when you were a teen. How old are you now? 26! And still single. It’s tto get a girlfriend.”
Wesley felt his grandpa was bossy. He seemed to have an answer for everything, and had to be right.
