They were smitten by her beauty and by her voice.
When Wesley came around backstage, he found Blair was still there and that she was being besieged by a group of young men, all talking and laughing happily
with her. Immediately, he pulled a glum face. For some reason, he didn't like seeing that.
But he didn't go over to interrupt them; instead, he walked towards a dark corner where he could hide, leaned against the column and began to smoke.
Blair was under the impression that the conversation with these young men would end in a few minutes. However, since her performance was almost at the end of the show, more and more soldiers began to leave the venue and joined the conversation with her. They wanted to know all sorts of things and some wanted to hit on her.
She tried a few times to excuse herself and take her leave, but failed.
They kept asking her a plethora of questions. She had no choice but to chat with them, wearing a helpless smile, and trying to dodge the flirting.
Half an hour later, a phone call saved her from further torture. Orion was calling her so late. 'What is it now?' she wondered.
She sighed with relief and swung her phone in front of the group, apologizing, "Sorry guys. I gotta take this. Excuse me."
Reluctantly, the enormous group of soldiers allowed her to walk out of ear-shot.
Picking up the phone, Blair walked into a corner.
"Hi, Orion. What's up?"
"Hi, Blair. Have you gone to bed? Did I wake you?" Orion's voice sounded chirpy despite the Late hour

"No. I'm still playing outside. What's up?"
"Well, I'm having a party with my friends. Would you like to come? I am not so far away from your apartment..."
Blair checked the time. It was over ten.
"Thank you so much Orion. But
I am sorry. It's really late now. How about we take a rain check on the treat?"
Orion insisted, "Come on, it's just a little past ten. This is when the night life starts anyway. By the way, I heard that you quit your job in the Jameson Group. Would you Like to come work at my company? I have positions open all the time for you. I'll even double your salary. What do you think?"
That was a really tempting offer, but Blair decided against it.

"Orion, you know that I don't have much of working experience yet. I'm not capable enough to be rewarded with such a high salary. Please don't give me special treatment just because we're friends. If your grandpa finds out, he's going to be furious and you'll have to suffer because of me." The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!
Thinking about his grandfather, Orion touched his chest to calm down.

grandpa. And come on. Look I'll pick you up now. It's okay if you don't want to play with my friends. We can talk about work.

Who's with you?"

"I've rented out a private booth in a small, friendly pub. There are three girls and four boys. They are pretty good friends of mine. I think you even know one of the girls here. She's our schoolmate." Orion and Blair had known each other for the better part of two years now. He was fully aware of the fact that she was an Oriental girl with traditional beliefs. So he told Blair that they were in a booth with some other girls to make her feel relieved and convince her to come. The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!
