As Megan walked away, so did Blair’s mind. It began to roam about far and wide and then she could hardly focus on the posts she was browsing on Weibo.
“So Wesley really loves Megan…I should have known!’ She didn’t know why, but the thought pained her heart, even though she had her suspicions a while back.
On boarding the plane, Blair had bumped into Megan once again when she was walking towards the economy class, located in the back of the plane. Megan was adjusting herself in the first-class cabin. She was surprised to see Blair and asked with a smile, “Blair, are you in first class too? What a coincidence, huh? Uncle Wesley booked a first-class ticket fortoo. Are we sitting together?”
Wesley had booked a first-class ticket for Blair when she had first flown to England to begin her studies there. Now she realized it wasn’t any special treatment he had given her. He had done the sfor Megan.
