Grandpa will find out. He won’t buythe house then!’ he thought.
“Wait! What?” Blair couldn’t believe her ears.
Niles tried to recover from his fumble.
“Oh, I mean…I’m really busy now. I’ll call her when I’m done working. Okay?”

After sconsideration, Niles said, “The easiest way is for you to get together with Wesley. Then we’ll both be happy. What do you think?”
‘Oops, I was wrong. It’s not that Blair doesn’t want to be with Wesley, but the other way round, ‘ he thought.
Blair cast a casual glance at Wesley and answered, “No, no. I’m not your brother’s type. He’s trying to foiston you.”
Wesley stopped walking and stared at her with a frown.
“On me? You’re kidding! Know what? My brother may be all serious on the outside, but he’s really passionate and gentle. Don’t give up! I believe in you. Keep at it, and you can really be my sister-in- law,”
Niles answered.

“Blair, am I hearing things?” Niles asked with the utmost care.

“Wesley… Um…you’re a handsguy. You and Blair are a perfect match. You’re meant to be together. Uh…ha-ha… I still have work to do. Bye!” Before Wesley could say another word, Niles hung up the phone.
Wesley stared at Blair’s phone and recalled what Niles said. ‘So he sawstroking her hand at the hospital?”
He was about to give the phone back to Blair when he met her teasing eyes. Now he was sure that Niles said something about that.
His tanned face seemed to have blushed. Blair widened her eyes and tried to see if she was seeing things. Wesley gave her phone back and walked forward quickly.
“Niles always makes up stories. Just ignore him,” he said, trying to hide his shyness.
Blair tittered under her breath. Judging from Wesley’s reaction, she was sure that what Niles said was true. She wondered when that happened, when Wesley stroked her hand.
