Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1386 Wendy’s Wariness

Wendy paced back and forth in her room. When she saw that her phone was silent, she felt fairly anxious. She had the urge to barge into Colton's room a few times, but she managed to keep her wits about her.

She should not go over at that moment because she could see that the person her brother needed was Beryl, not her.

While she was still worrying, she noticed movements on her phone. She hastily unlocked her phone and saw that it was a reply from Beryl, opening it in elation.

'Come out.'

Huh.

She rolled her eyes silently, then reluctantly opened the door. Soon, she saw Beryl's accursed face. "I asked you a question, but you made me come out here in the middle of the night instead of answering?" she questioned in confusion and could not help but raise her voice. When she noticed the drunk Colton, she lowered her volume even though she knew the room was soundproof.

Beryl turned up the corners of his mouth ever so slightly as he looked at Wendy with a half-smile. "I'm bringing you out for some food, and I'll also tell you about your brother. Are you coming?"


He was worried that she could not sleep because of her anxiety. That was why he wanted to bring her out for some good food. It might help her relieve her emotions.

"Well, since you so kindly offered, it would be rude for me to decline." A look of pleased surprise flashed across Wendy's face. However, it was so quick that no one noticed it. She pretended to look conflicted when she replied.

Beryl smiled. Choosing not to expose her, he stood at the door and waited.

She quickly got ready, not daring to let him wait too long. If she did, he would start nagging her again.

"Let's go." She patted him on the shoulder. Before he could turn around to look at her, she jogged up to the elevator. He shook his head in exasperation, then followed her in strides.

The night was silent and desolate.

"Your brother isn't in a good mood today. He's blaming himself."

When Beryl saw Wendy hesitating to speak, he smiled lightly, then started talking about Colton. Hearing that, she immediately perked up her ears to listen.

"It's because of Nicole. He originally thought she was at her happiest when she was with him, but unexpectedly, when he went to see her today, she looked even happier without him."

At that, he seemed deep in thought, but it also looked like he was giving Wendy time to let it sink in. After a pause, he continued. "So, he's blaming himself. When Nicole was with him, she was involved in various plots every day. Perhaps Zachary could give her a better life."

He did not say a word of his guesses. After all, they were merely assumptions, so they could not count.
