Under the Light of the desk lamp, Wesley was like a parent helping his child with homework. Whenever he saw a mistake, he pointed it out and made sure she corrected it.
A half hour later, Blair finally finished translating all the documents. She stretched as she asked casually, “So what other languages do you know?”
As she began to clear the desk, he replied, “English, French, German,
Korean, Russian, Spanish and Arabic. But I’ve only earned high-level certificates for English, French and German. As for the rest, I know enough to get by.”

‘He’s a friggin’ genius. He knows martial arts and eight Languages.
There’s nothing he can’t do, ‘ she marveled in her mind.
Wesley gave her a long look.
“I’m not planning on retiring anytsoon.” Or anytLater, for that matter. He was dedicated to his career.
Seeing his serious look, Blair shut her mouth.
They went back to their own bedrooms. It was then that Blair noticed a message from Joslyn. She’d sent it an hour ago.
“Bless, your cousin booked a room for me. Room 616 at Orchid Private Club. 7 p.m. tomorrow.
Be there or be square.”
Blair suddenly remembered that it was Joslyn’s birthday the next day.
She quickly sent back a text to her.
“I saw the message just now. So, who else will attend your party tomorrow evening?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Only a few old friends and classmates. Hartwell will takeout and celebrate my birthday at noon, because he can’t make it in the evening.
We can enjoy ourselves without any disturbance in Room 616 tomorrow.”
Joslyn hadn’t slept yet. It was clear that she was extremely excited from the detailed message she sent back.
Hartwell was always as busy as Wesley. That was the reason why Joslyn couldn’t see her husband every day. Yet he always made it up for his absence in different ways.
“No problem then. I’ll be off work at 5:30 p.m. I can reach there before 7.”
Joslyn sent her the emoji with a flying kiss.
“Sleep tight. Don’t stay awake overnight.”
“Will do so. Good night then. See you tomorrow!”
After sending the message, Blair put away her phone. She turned off the light and closed her eyes as soon as her head hit the pillow.
