?Chapter 958:
Wesley kept his eyes on her as she climbed the stairs. Once she was gone from view, he looked down at his body, sighing.
An hour passed before they both emerged from the estate.
Elena had changed into a fitted ck tracksuit.
The moment Wesleyid eyes on her, his face darkened. “You’re really going out in that?”
Even though the outfit covered every inch of her, the way it hugged her figure made every curve stand out.
The base was packed with men, and Wesley, being a man himself, understood their mindset all too well. A man with blood in his veins was almost always a recipe for trouble. Elena was already someone who attracted attention without trying, and now, dressed like that… Wesley’s brow furrowed. “Go change into something less fitted.”
Elena rolled her eyes, tied her hair into a ponytail, and headed straight for the door without replying.
Wesley let out a frustrated breath but followed her anyway.
Elena’s workout routine was straightforward—run ten kilometers to get her body moving.
There was a designated training field at the base, and that was where they were headed.
After a few minutes of warm-up, Elena began her run, fully focused on her pace. No matter what she was doing, she always gave it everything she had.
Wesley lingered near the edge of the track, silently watching her from a distance.
The sky still held traces of daylight, and her lean silhouette stood out against the backdrop of the field. Several men had already turned to look at her.
N and Lucinda happened to walk by and caught sight of Elena mid-run.
Lucinda sneered, “Look at her, pretending she’s here to exercise. She’s just desperate for attention. So shameless.”
N’s expression twisted with subtle contempt. But the moment her eyesnded on Wesley, her priorities shifted instantly. She no longer cared about Elena and immediately began walking in Wesley’s direction.
Lucinda, still caught up in judging Elena, quickly trailed behind when she noticed N had moved.

Wesley sat on a bench near the track, eyes locked on Elena. Then, someone stepped into his view, blocking his line of sight. His face tightened, cold and indifferent.
N tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and gave him a warm, rehearsed smile. “Mr. Spencer, what a pleasant surprise running into you again!”
Wesley didn’t respond right away. His lips pressed into a t line, and his eyes were sharp with disinterest.
N pretended not to notice his displeasure. “I’ve just epted a position as the new medical officer for the research unit. Starting tomorrow, I’ll be reporting there. If anything ever feels off, you know you cane find me.”
Wesley couldn’t care less about her job cement. She could go wherever she wanted, as long as she didn’t cross paths with him again. But N didn’t walk away. She stayed put, her gaze fixed on him with obvious yearning.
Wesley’s patience finally wore thin. His voice turned sharp as he said, “Move. You’re in my way.”
N’s cheerful expression cracked, her smile fading as her face stiffened.
Lucinda, never one to miss a chance to stir trouble, interjected, “Let it go, N. He’s not worth it. Telling you to move like that—what a jerk.”
