Patty realized that Blair had a ready tongue. Part of her still thought that the girl was lying. She wasn't ready to give up on her Wayne yet."Wayne, did you ever love me? Were you ever attracted to me? Even a little?" she asked.
"No, never." The brutal answer didn't come from her dream man, but Blair."Isn't that obvious? Did you even have to ask?"
Patty ignored her and looked at Wesley."Wayne?"
He stared back at her and then finally spoke."I'm Wesley, Blair's Wesley. I've always loved her. Only her. And it will stay that way." "You're so heartless!" Clutching her aching heart, Patty looked at him, devastated.
"You couldn't be more wrong. He is the most soft-hearted man in the world. He is only merciless to criminals and outlaws. If he is being cruel to you, that just means that you are one of them." Blair sized Patty up as she spoke.
The woman's face was waxy and sallow, and her eyes were dull, making her look like a user.
She did do drugs. Wesley knew it.
Just then, police sirens were heard approaching. Patty panicked. She gave Wesley an incredulous look and asked, "Did you call the police?"
"Yes, " he admitted.
Patty's family had sent her away so that the police wouldn't find her. But soon after she had appeared in the parking lot, Wesley had secretly sent a message to the police from his phone.
She crunched down on the ground, covering her head with her hands, crushed and defeated. Now, she truly started to believe that Wayne didn't love her. He never did. He couldn't care less about her.
In less than a minute, the police arrived. Two policemen stepped out of the car and cuffed Patty, who now had no room to resist.
Before getting into the police car, Patty looked back at Wesley expectantly and asked, "Wayne, could you at least say that you love me? I want to hear it, even if it's just a lie."
That was the last thing Blair wanted to hear. But she had no cause for worry. Without any hesitation, Wesley turned to her, put an arm around her waist and said, "Let's go home."
Blair nodded in surprise.
'He is ruthless, as always, even more than when he had turned down my proposal in front of all those men, ' she thought with
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again. But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
What Patty had said came rushing back to her. Blair had decided to give up on Wesley, and those words were nothing but meaningless promises Wayne had made to Patty. She knew that. But, she felt her stomach churn in jealousy nevertheless.
Blair had no idea what her next step should be. She had had a plan; but with Wesley in the picture now, her mind was a tumult. Her heart raced and betrayed her every time he was near.
She was bothered.
At last, she decided to put all these annoying thoughts aside and stood up to brush her teeth and get ready for bed.
Before Wesley reached his apartment complex, he got a phone call. He answered it promptly."Hello?"
"Senior Colonel Li, Patty said she wouldn't say a word until you got here, and that she would tell us everything if you came."
Wesley was quiet for a second. Then, he turned the car around."I'm on my way."
As Malcolm's granddaughter, Patty knew a lot about the gang. If he could get her to talk, it would be worth it.
When he got there, Patty was being confined in a solitary cell.
She remained expressionless when she saw him walk in."Are you Wayne or Wesley?" she asked, her voice hoarse.
Wesley sat opposite her."Does it matter?"
"Of course, it matters. Wayne is the man I love. Wesley is my enemy." She hated Wesley, because that man didn't love her. He cared about some woman named Blair and even joined in bullying her.
"I'm here now. Start talking, " said Wesley.
