Not only had Wesley planned to invite Megan along for dinner, but he also tried to pair Blair off with his own brother. 'I might have been too submissive. That's why he's keen on treading on my feelings willy-nilly. What a jerk!'
Ignoring Wesley's dissuasion, Blair unfastened her seatbelt, opened the passenger door, and jumped out of the car.
Wesley immediately ran after her. They were in the suburbs, and although there were many cars, almost all of them were private cars. It would be extremely hard for her to hail a taxi. "Don't be so stubborn. Let me drive you home," he offered.
Blair gave him a scowl. "No, thank you. I'll move out of Niles' apartment tomorrow. Let's just stay out of each other's business from now on. I swear I won't love you anymore. If I break my promise, I'll be a cheating dog."
Wesley's face darkened. He grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her to his car.
Blair tried to break free, but her body wouldn't budge. Wesley pressed her against his car and tried to calm himself down.

"No, thanks. This is your brother's apartment. I should be the one leaving. This is my choice." Blair returned to packing the rest of her belongings.
Wesley could only watch helplessly as she stuffed her clothes into her suitcase.
Blair then went to the bathroom to fetch her toiletries. Wesley took this opportunity to pull out a shopping bag from his pocket and stashed it under the clothes in her suitcase.

She then walked towards the door to the apartment with her suitcase. Wesley wore a rigid expression as he followed after her.
When Blair heard Wesley close the door behind him, her heart sank to her stomach. 'He didn't even try to make me stay, ' she thought, somewhat disappointed.
"Let me help you," Wesley said and grabbed the suitcase from her. She didn't turn him down and followed after him wordlessly as they walked to his car.
Wesley put her suitcase inside the trunk. Blair then said, "Drop me off at the Angel's Love Welfare Center on Queen's Road. Thank you."
Wesley didn't respond. Blair was sure he heard her, so she didn't repeat it.
They got inside the car and drove off as the sky began to get darker.
