My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Madam Quartley nodded in appreciation when she heard Yuliana's words. "You are so considerate, Yuliana." "How can I not be?" Yuliana said with a hollow smile, "Zorion is my husband, I must be considerate to him."

Although Madam Quartley was happy, she reminded Yuliana. "It's a good thing that you're considerate, but you shouldn't be dressed like this to look for Tremaine. Even relatives should avoid arousing suspicion!"

Yuliana pretended to realize this and she patted herself on the head and said, "How silly of me, I was too excited. I'll be sure to be careful next time!"

If Yuliana had talked about Zorion in the past, Tremaine would have been patient, but he was not in the mood for it today.

With some cold air in the car, he became more clear headed.

But somehow, his thoughts became muddled again.

Yesseca once again entered his mind.

She looked at him with hatred.

She said that she despised him.

He could not get rid of the image in his head.

"Creak!"

Tremaine abruptly stepped on the brakes and stopped the car.

After a while, he turned in the direction of Agaphen City. He then stopped after five minutes.

He opened the door and got out of the car.

The icy wind gave Tremaine chills.

He stood out there in the cold for a while.

He then got back into the car.

He rerouted his direction and headed towards Nashaland.

The next day soon arrived.

Yesseca hadn't gotten a wink of sleep all night.

She decided to go to Essie again.

When she went downstairs, she saw Kylin.

She knew that Kylin was here to pick her up.

Yesseca got into his car.

"Send me to the office, please," Yesseca said.

Kylin looked at Yesseca with concern. "Yesseca, do you want to take a day off? If you want to rest, you don't have to go to work.."

"No need, I'm going to clock in," Yesseca said.

Kylin drove to Yesseca's workplace.

When he arrived, Kylin stopped the car and said to Yesseca in a serious tone, "Yesseca, what exactly are we?"

Yesseca was stunned.

She did not know how to answer this.

She was initially with Kylin mostly because of his relationship with Selina.

But now, Selina's position in her heart had changed. Where did that leave her and Kylin?

It was as though something was being tugged in her mind.

"We're a couple." Yesseca did not respond, and Kylin answered in her stead.

At the same time, Kylin stared into Yesseca's eyes, as if he wanted to receive an affirmation from her.

Yesseca licked her dry lips.

No matter how she felt about Selina now, Yesseca was already Kyi in's girlfriend. And all things considered, Kylin was a good man. Yesseca nodded.

A smile appeared on Kylin's lips. He said in a softer voice, "Since we are a couple, we should share the same burdens. That's my duty as your boyfriend."

After a pause, Kyi in said, "Yesseca, I've noticed that you've been behaving strangely recently. I've been waiting for you to tell me the truth, but since you don't want to, I'll respect your privacy. But you can tell me about it in the future, it's my responsibility as your boyfriend to carry your burdens with you."

Yesseca's mouth felt parched.

If it was something else, she could tell Kyi in, but this was a different issue. He was Selina's cousin.

"I'll tell you when I have the opportunity," Yesseca replied quietly. "I'm off to work." Fortunately, Kylin did not force her.

He only took a deep look at Yesseca. "This is the first time I'm seeing you as if you've put on a mask. Your smile doesn't seem real, and you look like you're feeling all kinds of complicated emotions. I hope that you can return to how you were before."

Yesseca hesitated for a moment before nodding.

"I will. Things will return back to normal."

After getting off the car, Yesseca received a call

from Matthew.

Before Matthew could speak, she already opened her mouth to say, "I'm going to work. Let's talk about it later."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.

After a while, Matthew's deep voice came from the speakers, "Okay, Yesseca, I'll come see you tonight."

After hanging up the call from Matthew, Yesseca was distracted for a moment until someone patted her on the shoulder. "Yesseca."

The person who patted her on the shoulder was Preslie.

Yesseca replied, "Preslie, you're here."

"That's right." Preslie held Yesseca's hand. "Let's go in together."

Yesseca pulled her hand out of Preslie's. "Can help me apply for a leave? I don't want to go to work today."

Preslie was stunned for a moment. "Aren't you already here? Why don't you want to work?"

Yesseca shook her head. "There's something I need to do."

Kylin had come to pick her up, and she didn't want him to know too much. That was why she'd turned

up at work.

Preslie said, "Are you sure

everything's okay?" "Yes,

everything's fine." "Well, I'll ask for a

leave for you." Preslie had always been a simple minded person, and she didn't press any further

"Thank you."

After bidding farewell, Yesseca got into a taxi.

Coincidentally, the driver was the same guy Yesseca had met yesterday.

The driver recognized Yesseca.

He asked in surprise, "Why are you going there again? You're always there."

Yesseca didn't say anything.

The driver continued to ramble on, talking about how there were so many dangerous places that people should not go to.

Yesseca asked, "Do you think ghosts are scarier, or do you think people are scarier?"

The driver was taken aback.

After a while, he said, "Why would you ask a question like that? There are no ghosts around. If there were, ghosts would be scarier than people." Yesseca shook her head. "No, people are more terrifying." "How could people be terrifying?" asked the driver.

Yesseca said softly, "The human heart can be frightening."

Yesseca saw that mountain again.

She walked to the top of the mountain, step by step. She with her thoughts all the way

Just as she was about to enter, a black shadow flashed in front of her eyes.

Yesseca saw the silhouette and stopped breathing.

The shadowy figure turned out to be actually Lothar.

"Lother!" Yesseca shouted.

The shadow soon disappeared into the woods.

Yesseca ran over and shouted as she ran, "Lothar!"

No one responded to her.

It seemed like the shadow was just an illusion.

However, Yesseca was certain.

What she saw was not an illusion, but reality!

"Lothar!" Yesseca continued to shout, when all of a sudden, she fell.

It was an old well.

It seemed to be an old well built by hunters to catch animals on the mountain.
