Chapter 1615
Talbot and Bowman, who were standing next to Wesley, took one step forward, intending to reason with the woman, but Wesley stopped them.
Wesley kept silent, intending to ignore the woman, but she wasn’t going to let it go. She grabbed his clothes and said, “Nice uniform. You must be the commanding officer. Did you tell them not to save my husband?”
He glared at her, but she wasn’t giving up yet. She continued, “They say you were nearby when the accident happened. So close and you didn’t save him? You’re slow. If you can’t do your job well, then just quit!”
Talbot couldn’t bear it anymore.
“Shut up! Our chief saved three people! What did you do? Nothing! Just stop, okay?”
Slap! To everyone’s shock, the unstable woman slapped Talbot across the face.
And that act used up the last bit of sympathy in the crowd. People began to curse her.

“Who the hell do you think you are, lady? Calm down.”
“It wasn’t his fault. Why blame him?”
“Your hubby was probably happy to die. Anything to get away from you.”
The woman trembled in anger when she heard the reactions from the crowd.
Wesley dragged Talbot behind him and stared at the woman grimly.
“Look,
I get it. You’re hurt. I don’t know what I’d do in that situation, but you shouldn’t have hit him. You should apologize.”
“Why should I? Who the hell is he?” the woman yelled, without a single tinge of regret or shame in her voice.
“Don’t tell me what to do!”
Smack! And at that, she slapped Wesley too. Hard enough to make his head rock.
He was a man serving the country bravely and keeping its people safe.
The humiliation of getting slapped by some random woman was beyond words.
The coldness in his face deepened, mixed with fury. He balled his hands into fists. Meeting the killer look in his eyes, the woman suddenly lost her nerve to utter another word.
Several men stepped forward to grab the hysterical woman. Just then, another woman dashed over to her, and gave her a slap as well. The sound of that one reverberated even Louder than the previous two slaps.
“Ahh!” the crazy woman shrieked as she was struck. She was so shrill that many onlookers had to cover their ears. They were all shocked.
Immediately, Talbot recognized the newcomer. Excited, he tugged at
Wesley’s sleeve and said, “Chief, it’s Blair.”
Wesley gave him a sidelong glance. ‘I know. I’m not blind.*
