My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

He had already spent so much money on Qiana, so he didn't mind giving her a little extra.

Wesley agreed to her request.

He didn't forget to remind Qiana once again, "Remember, once you've gotten close to Tremaine, get him to give me Nashaland," Qiana calmly agreed to his request, but deep in her heart she criticized him for his greed.

He wanted Tremaine to give him control over Nashaland.

It seems he wasn't satisfied with just being mayor.

There was an incident at Agaphen City today.

A cargo ship sank.

There were countless casualties.

It just so happened that the father of one of her colleagues worked on that cargo ship and died during the incident.

That afternoon, Cassie walked over to Yesseca's counter to talk about it.

She said sadly, "It's not easy for someone poor to get married nowadays. That poor guy doesn't have any money. His girlfriend needs 300,000 dollars for them to get married. They say he only makes a few thousand dollars a month working as a security guard in our mall. His father went to work on that cargo ship to help him earn the money, but then this happened. Such a tragedy!"

Yesseca was sad as well.

She was sad because of what happened to her colleague's father and also because her own brother had died on a ship at sea.

"Why don't we help raise some money for him?" Yesseca suggested.

The dead couldn't come back to life, so the least they could do was pool their money together to help their colleague. This would at least give his deceased father some solace up in heaven. After all, his father died working on that cargo ship to make some money for his son.

"Yesseca, you're such a kind girl," Cassie continued, "I'll speak to our supervisor later and get her to inform everyone. You have no idea how depressed that man must have been when he heard about his father. A six-foot-tall man was crying his heart out,"

Yesseca sighed. "When did he find out about it?"

"While he was at work, someone called him and asked him to collect his father's body. He fell onto the ground and cried," said Cassie.

Yesseca was stunned. "Who called him?" "The government," Cassie replied. "For a cargo ship to sink to the bottom of the sea, that's no small matter. The government will definitely recover the bodies and inform their families about it."

Yesseca felt short of breath. She felt like several threads were intertwined in her head.

"Cassie, is it possible that some of those bodies might not get found and end up lost?" Yesseca's eyelashes began to tremble.

"That is possible."

"Will the government still inform their families about it?"

"Of course they would," Cassie said firmly.

"Cassie, are you sure? You're sure that the government will notify the families?! They won't miss out on any of them will they?!" Yesseca suddenly became very aggravated. Cassie was shocked.

She asked, "What's the matter with you, Yesseca?"

"Don't worry about me. Cassie, just answer my question," Yesseca looked like she was about to cry.

Cassie answered, "No matter what, the government has to inform that person's family. Even if the body couldn't be recovered, it still has to be made public. That is the government's responsibility. Why do you think they tax us so much?"

Yesseca's head was buzzing.

When Lothar died, no one called to inform her about it.

Selina was the one who told Matthew that her brother's ship had sunk and that her brother was dead.

It wasn't as Cassie said, the government didn't call her at all.

If she hadn't encountered that strange woman from last night, Yesseca might have found this suspicious, but she wouldn't have given it much thought. However, she did encounter that woman.

When she connected the things that the strange woman told her with Cassie's explanation, she felt like her heart had been squashed by a collapsing wall. Her faith that she held so strongly and firmly was shattered.

After her shift ended, Kylin came to pick Yesseca up.

Kylin told Yesseca that Selina had already been discharged from the hospital. Setina had invited Yesseca over for dinner at her house tonight, but there were too many people there right now. She knew that Yesseca would be quite shy around them and wouldn't be comfortable eating with so many people, so she told Yesseca to come over later.

Yesseca thought, "Yeah that's a good idea, it would be better to go over later,"

Besides, she didn't know how to talk to Selina about this right now.

Yesseca looked very restless during dinner.

Kylin noticed this.

He placed a pair of cutleries on her plate and asked, "Yesseca, what's wrong? You seem to be in a bad mood,"

Yesseca looked up at him.

After a while, she asked, "Kylin, if a family member of yours gets into trouble on a cargo ship, which then sank into the ocean and died, will the government attempt to recover their body and inform you about it?"

Kylin answered without hesitation, "They have to recover the body and contact the family. It's the government's responsibility,"

"Do they have to inform his relatives

if his body hasn't been recovered?" "Yeah, they'd still have to inform them. They must inform them that he is missing. However, they'd only reach out to his parents and spouse. It would be impossible to inform all ofhis relatives."

"What about friends?! If his parents aren't around anymore or if he never married, won't they inform his friends?" Yesseca suddenly raised her voice.

Kylin shook his head. "That'd be impossible. If he didn't have any parents or a spouse, they would inform his siblings. Not unless he had no family at all, then they would inform his friends."

Yesseca's head buzzed.

She had no idea what else to think about next. All she knew was that her mind was in a mess.

Clang! Clang!

The cutleries in Yesseca's hands fell onto the table.

Kylin looked at Yesseca, surprised. "What's going on with you, Yesseca?"

Yesseca stood up. "I'm going home. I'm not hungry anymore. I'm going home..."

She felt like she was in an iron cage. The cage was closing in on her, and the only way for her to escape it was to get home.

She had to get home!

That was the only place she felt safe now.

"Home, I need to go home." Yesseca then rushed out.

As she turned to leave, she didn't notice the chair behind her and tripped. Luckily, Kyi in caught her before she fell to the ground.

Kylin was very worried. "Yesseca, are you alright?"

The two of them had been enjoying a nice meal. Suddenly, Yesseca started acting strange.

"I need to go home." Yesseca was still mumbling to herself continuously.

Kylin quickly said to her, "Okay, I'm taking you home right now,"

He then drove Yesseca home.

Even though she was already on her way home, Yesseca still kept muttering to herself, "I need to go home,"

Kylin furrowed his eyebrows.

Kylin stepped out of the car after they arrived at Yesseca's apartment.

He even made a request, "Yesseca, I know this sounds very sudden, but I want to go up with you. I promise you I won't do anything excessive. I'll leave right after you've fallen asleep,"
