My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

"Tremaine, did you bring your son's biological mother to Quartley Palace?"

Tremaine's face changed slightly.

He didn't answer, but he didn't need to. Kyi in understood from Tremaine's face that Yesseca was right. Tremaine's son's biological mother was really at Quartley Palace! Kylin became even more agitated.

"Nothing's wrong with that, but you need to pay more attention to Yesseca's feelings! Do you know badly she's been affected by this? Do you know that she called me in tears?"

"She feels that you've been distant with her ever since your son's mother came to Quartley Palace. Can't you see how much pain she's in, Tremaine? She even told me that she was afraid she'd do something outrageous if things were to go on like this! Isn't it obvious how much stress she's under?!"

"Since you insisted on being with her, you have to be responsible for her! How could you allow her to be so unhappy, Tremaine?"

Tremaine felt like his head was buzzing.

He suddenly took a step forward and grabbed Kylin by the collar. "Are you telling the truth?"

Kylin raised his voice and said, "Did you think I came to Nashaland just to pull a prank on you?"

Tremaine felt his head buzz again.

Before this, everything was based on his own speculation. All the thoughts that'd run through his mind the night before had all been mere guesswork. At this moment, Kyi in's words were telling him that his speculations were the truth. Qiana's arrival made Yesseca upset.

He had just never noticed it.

He'd asked Yesseca about it many times, but she'd said that she was fine. She even said that it was good to have Qiana around so that Montez could be with his mother.

It turned out that Yesseca was deceiving him.

Yesseca had actually been so upset by Qiana's arrival that she'd called Kylin to cry and complain about her unhappiness. She'd even gone to the extent of doing something outrageous.

Tremaine felt like his heart was sinking endlessly.

Kylin suddenly shoved Tremaine away from him and said, "Tremaine, can I see Yesseca now?! She needs someone to talk to her and get her through this, or she's really going to do something crazy!" Tremaine's expression darkened.

After a moment, he said lowly, "I'll handle it. There's no need for an outsider like you to worry about Yesseca's matters."

After that, Tremaine walked back into Quartley Palace, completely ignoring Kylin's shouts.

Kylin wanted to follow him into Quartley Palace, but he was stopped by the soldiers at the door.

There was nothing Kylin could do when he was faced with soldiers.

Tremaine pushed open the door of Yesseca's bedroom.

Yesseca was sitting on the bed.

When she saw him, she immediately turned away from him, leaving him to face her back.

Tremaine did not speak or move.

He stood there and watched her like he was a statue.

In the end, it was Yesseca who could no longer hold back.

She turned back and glared at him. "Just say what you want to say! Don't stand there and watch me like some creep!" "Yesseca, why didn't you tell me that you were upset about Qiana's arrival?" Tremaine finally opened his mouth. "You were upset about her, even to the extent of hating her, but you never told me. Why?"

If Yesseca had been willing to tell him, he wouldn't have kept Qiana here against Yesseca's wishes.

However, Yesseca had never mentioned it. Instead, she'd done something terrible.

Yesseca's eyes widened. "Tremaine, are you here to slander me again? I've told you countless times that I don't mind Qiana's arrival! I felt a little uncomfortable initially, but I'm fine with it now! Do you think that I poisoned Montez because of my hatred for Qiana? When have you ever allowed your imagination to run free like this? You shouldn't be a president, you know. You should be a novelist!"

Tremaine watched her. Her gaze was so clear and innocent. She didn't look like she was lying at all.

But the fact was that she was indeed lying.

Kylin had already come here.

He couldn't have made those things up. If it weren't for Yesseca telling Kylin about all those negative things, he wouldn't have panicked and come all the way to Quartley Palace.

He could tell that Kylin cared deeply for Yesseca.

If not for the fact that he was truly concerned, Kylin wouldn't have shown up at Quartley Palace to affect Tremaine and Yesseca's relationship.

Although Tremaine didn't like Kylin, he had to admit that Kylin was a true gentleman.

Since he'd agreed to allow Tremaine to take Yesseca away, he would do everything he could to let her go. He wouldn't go around causing trouble or sowing discord between them. Something had to be seriously wrong for Kylin to show up like this! And it was because Kylin felt that something was wrong with Yesseca's mental state that he'd come here. He was afraid that Yesseca would do something outrageous, as she'd mentioned over the phone.

At this moment, Tremaine felt that Yesseca was nothing more than a stranger to him.

She was clearly lying, but she could make herself look like she was telling the truth. She looked like she was truly fine with Qiana's arrival.

Why was it that he'd never known that Yesseca was such a good liar?

Or was the truth that he'd never really known her?

"Yesseca, why are you lying to me?" Tremaine forced out.

Yesseca's heart turned cold with Tremaine's every word.

Tremaine still felt that she was lying.

She hadn't harmed Montez, yet Tremaine felt that she did.

Everything that she said was a lie to him.

There was no trust between them.

No, she trusted Tremaine, but he didn't trust her.

It was all because of her stupidity.

She'd thought that Tremaine loved her deeply, that he would believe her no matter what, but it was all just her imagination!

How laughable. How pathetic!

Yesseca didn't want to explain herself anymore. She didn't have the strength to.

She said "Tremaine, you can think whatever you want. If you think I'm lying to you, then I'm lying to you. I don't want to explain myself anymore!"

"Yesseca, I never expected you to do

something like this," Tremaine

forced out through gritted teeth. "I've always thought of you as a kind woman, yet you've done something as horrible as poisoning someone, even putting an innocent child's life at risk!"

Yesseca's face turned red from anger.
