Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 331

Chapter 331 I Could Not Be More Thankful

Jasper, who was about the same age as Rowan, was the neighbor’s child. The two children often played together. They had a good relationship, and he was Rowan’s best friend.

Hannah White, Jasper’s mother, was a housewife, while Jasper’s father, Donald White, was always busy with work and couldn’t spend much time at home. However, he would always take time to play with Jasper as soon as he got home.

Yuliana sometimes accompanied Rowan to play with Jasper on weekends. When Donald came back from work, he would carry Jasper happily, and Jasper would giggle at him while Rowan was watching them quietly at the side.

She didn’t know how to describe Rowan’s expression at that time. In fact, Rowan, a three-year-old child, didn’t understand many things, but he was very sensitive and could feel that he was different from others. He just didn’t know how to express himself.

Yuliana fell silent for a moment.

After he thought for a while, an idea popped into Rowan’s mind. He buried himself in Yuliana’s arms and asked, “Mommy, how about Mr. Duncan? I want a Daddy like Mr. Duncan.”

Yuliana came back to her senses, pinched his cheek, and said with a faint smile, “Mr. Duncan is not your daddy. They’re different.”

Rowan buried his head in Yuliana’s arms and said, “I like Mr. Duncan.”

Yuliana knew that the concept of a father to Rowan was an illusory and unimaginable existence, and Wesley was someone who existed in his life. Rowan’s favorite man in the past two years was Wesley.

She looked down at the sullen little guy in her arms and asked, “Do you miss Mr. Duncan?”

Rowan nodded. “Yes, Mommy. I want to call Mr. Duncan.)

Yuliana adjusted her posture, held him in her arms, and then tidied the hair on his forehead, saying, “It’s too late today. Mr. Duncan is taking a rest. Go to bed first, and you can call Mr. Duncan after waking up, okay?”

Rowan obediently replied, “Okay.”

Yuliana gently patted Rowan’s back, watching him close his eyes and breathe evenly. After he fell asleep soundly in her arms, she carefully moved him to the bed.

When she came out of Rowan’s room, her phone rang.

She looked at her phone and couldn’t help smiling. Then, she answered it directly.

“Just now, Roe said he wants to call you. I didn’t expect you to call me first,” Yuliana said to the person on the other side of the phone.

“Roe is still up?” Wesley asked.

“He just fell asleep.” Yuliana paused and asked, “Why did you call me at this time? Are you back?”

Wesley replied, “I just got off the plane.”

“Is everything going well?” Yuliana asked.

“Not bad. There were some ups and downs, and it took me two days to settle it. But I’ve settled everything.” said Wesley.

“That’s good.” Yuliana pushed the door and entered the room. She couldn’t help but yawn.

Wesley heard her yawn and asked, “Are you tired?”

Yuliana said, “I took Roe out for a whole day today. I’m a little tired.”

Kids were always energetic when it came to playing. However, it would be challenging for the people who accompanied them. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

She felt even more tired than working.

Wesley said, “Then I’ll hang up now. Have a good rest. I’ll see you and Roe some other day.”

Yuliana replied, “Okay, then. Bye.”

With that, Yuliana hung up the phone. She came out of the bathroom and directly threw herself on the bed.

Wesley stared at the dimmed phone screen for two seconds, put it away, and strode to the exit passageway of the international arrival hall. Outside the airport, a black business car was waiting.

He opened the door and got in the car. The man who was driving turned around and greeted, “Mr. Duncan.” Wesley hummed faintly in response and then ordered, “Send me to Kaiser Club first.”

“Sure, Mr. Duncan.”

Kaiser Club was an entertainment clubhouse owned by Yahir.

As soon as Wesley got off the plane, Christopher called and asked him to meet at Kaiser Club.

When Wesley arrived at Kaiser Club, it was already past midnight.

However, the night was still young in Kaiser Club.

Wesley pushed the door open and went in The smoke lingered in the air, and the smell of tobacco and wine mixed together was intense and disgusting Three or five women dressed sexily stood in an open space, singing and dancing, and several lecherous men were touching them.

He looked around and saw Christopher sitting on the couch in the corner.

Wesley didn’t go over immediately. He stood there and stared at Christopher for a while.

In fact, he hadn’t seen Christopher for nearly a year. The last time he met Christopher was in July or August last year, and the two of them didn’t have a great conversation. Therefore, he stopped going to prison since then. Even if something happened, Wesley would just ask his men to pass on his words to Christopher.

Obviously, Christopher had changed a lot compared to last year.

During the few seconds of Wesley’s silent observation, Christopher soon caught Wesley peeping at him and quickly fixed his cold eyes on the latter.

They looked at each other across the air for two seconds, and then Wesley walked over.

“Mr. Duncan is here. Please have a seat.”

Yahir was the one speaking.

Yahir was sitting next to Christopher. There was a single empty couch on the other side, and a round table was in the middle of the three single couches. There were several bottles of wine and glasses on the table, and cigarette boxes were next to them. Several cigarette butts were already in the ashtray. Christopher was wearing a dark-colored floral shirt with a pair of black trousers. He crossed his legs and leaned lazily on the couch. The piercing gaze he had when he looked at Wesley just now had disappeared. Instead, his expression was cold.

Yahir first poured a glass of wine for Wesley, then stood up and said with a smile, “You guys can talk. I’ll go over there to serve Mr. Yantz.”

It was noisy in the private room, but the corner that they were in was quiet. It was as if every sound had been isolated out of that area.

Christopher picked up the cigarette box on the table and shook it twice. A cigarette popped out, and he handed it to Wesley.

Wesley didn’t take it and said, “I’ve quit smoking.”

The corner of Christopher’s lips curled imperceptibly. He then took out a cigarette and bit it between his thin lips. He puffed and slowly exhaled smoke, saying. “Have you made any progress going abroad this time?” Wesley replied, “I found some leads, but it will take some time to get the result.”

“More time?” Christopher looked at him through the smoke. “I’ve given you three years.”

Wesley picked up his glass and took a sip of wine. “I’m not just doing your business. When I accepted your mission, I told you it would be hard, and I was not confident that I could accomplish it.”

Christopher flicked the cigarette ash and smiled as he asked, “Are you not confident that you could accomplish it, or are you distracted?”

Wesley’s expression remained unchanged. He raised his eyes at Christopher and said calmly, “Mr. Solace, if you are not satisfied with my work, I can stop it now and return all the money to you.”

Hearing this, Christopher jested, “Mr. Duncan, I’m just kidding. Why did you take it seriously? Besides, you’ve been treating Roe like your son for the past few years. I couldn’t be more thankful.”
