My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



Perhaps it was because they were discussing Lothar, but Yesseca had suddenly gotten over her reluctance to talk to Tremaine. Tremaine threw a glance at Yesseca and said, "What happened to your brother?"

Yesseca lowered her head and her eyelashes were quivering. "My brother was a sailor. When he entered the entertainment industry, he knew that it was too complicated and difficult to succeed. Without sufficient connections and background, he couldn't stand out. In addition, Selina cured me and we didn't need a large sum of money. So, my brother went to be a sailor after that. He was planning on using his salary to start a small business for the both of us, but then, who would have thought..."

Yesseca was choked with sobs. Swallowing hard, she continued, "Who would have thought that the first time he went out to the sea, he died."

At this point, Yesseca took a piece of tissue paper and wiped her tears. She then smiled and said, "Alright, lunch is over. We agreed that you wouldn't disturb me anymore."

It was really strange that she had spoken so much

to Tremaine.

After that, Tremaine also stood up. "Yesseca, you..."

Before he could finish, Yesseca interrupted him. "Don't talk to me anymore. I have to go to work. Goodbye."

After finishing her sentence, she walked towards the entrance of the restaurant.

It happened that someone threw a banana skin in the restaurant, and before the waiter had time to clean it up, Yesseca slid and fell after stepping on it.

Just in front of Yesseca, a waiter was carrying a bowl of lamb stew.

It was boiling hot.

The waiter wasn't quick-witted either. When he saw Yesseca falling, he was stunned. He stood there foolishly with the pot of lamb in his hand, waiting for Yesseca to fall onto him.

Just as Yesseca was about to collide with the waiter, Tremaine grabbed her and she fell into his arms.

Although neither of them hit the pot of stew, Tremaine's arm came into contact with it, scalding him.

Tremaine shot a glance at Yesseca in his arms

and asked, "Are you all right?"

Yesseca was stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses.

She immediately broke free from Tremaine's arms.

"I'm fine." Her face was a little red.

At this time, the waiter finally came to his senses. He looked at Tremaine's red hand and was shocked. He said in a panic, "Sir, I'm sorry, I... I..." The waiter was too terrified to say anything.

Following the waiter's gaze, Yesseca noticed Tremaine's scalded hand.

She was startled. "What happened to you?"

"Nothing, let's go." Upon hearing the stuttering apology from the waiter, Tremaine felt angry.

Upon seeing that Tremaine was striding out, Yesseca quickly followed him.

She was in a complicated mood. "Mr. Quartley, wait for me, wait for me."

Out of the restaurant, Tremaine stopped and said, "Go back to work. I'm leaving."

Yesseca looked at Tremaine's injured hand and said, "How could you leave justlike this? You have to tend to the wound on your hand."

However, Tremaine didn't care. "It's not a big deal." On the other hand, Yesseca did not think that it was not a big deal. Tremaine's hand was red and swollen, it hurt her to look at it.

"No, we need to go to the hospital," Yesseca insisted.

Tremaine looked at Yesseca with a faint smile. "Didn't you just say I should not disturb you? Now that I want to leave, you won't let me go." Yesseca was speechless.

She raised her voice. "It's not the same!"

"I'm fine." Tremaine looked serious. "You can go back to work. I'll handle it myself."

After saying that, Tremaine turned and left.

"Mr. Quartley, wait!" Yesseca ran over and stopped in front of Tremaine.

"I said that I'm fine, you can go back to work," said Tremaine.

Yesseca looked at Tremaine with her eyes wide open and suddenly realized that she couldn't understand him anymore.

Tremaine had done something horrible to her in the restaurant, so she'd thought that Tremaine was a bad guy.

However, Tremaine had just saved her, and his hands had been injured, but he still insisted that he was fine. He behaved like a good man.

Was Tremaine a good person or a bad one? Yesseca was puzzled.

She looked at Tremaine confusedly, "Mr. Quartley, I don't think I can understand you."

Tremaine's eyes were deep. "Of

course you can't understand me. You call me Mr. Quartley, which proves that we are not familiar with each other. You would be able to understand me if you changed the way that you address me and we became closer."

Yesseca was tongue-tied.

Looking at her perplexed face, Tremaine found it amusing.

He smiled slightly and asked, "Has anyone called you a fool?"

Yesseca shook her head.

"Remember, now someone has."

"Who is it?"

"Me."

Yesseca was speechless yet again.

"Wait," Tremaine blurted out of the blue.

A few meters away from him, there was a shop. Tremaine went over and bought some walnuts for Yesseca. "Have some of these at work."

At that moment, Yesseca did not understand.

"It's good for your brain."

As he spoke, Yesseca was silent.

When Tremaine disappeared from Yesseca's sight, she understood.

Good for her brain?

Why did she need something that was good for her brain?

Was she stupid?

Nevertheless, Yesseca carried the bag of walnuts back to the store.

The walnuts had already been

peeled, making it very con

eat. With that, Yesseca stood in front of the cashier and ate the walnuts.

As she was eating, she wondered if Tremaine was a good or bad person.

Before, she hated him, but now, he did not appear to be as bad as she'd thought.

Yesseca sighed helplessly.

She felt that she had no principles. How could she be so indecisive?

Initially, she'd thought that she would always be at loggerheads with Tremaine, but she was rebelling bravely now!

Yesseca thought to herself, she wasn't born in an era where she had to fight. With that, she would have become a rebel very easily.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Yesseca, you're having walnuts," said Cassie.

Yesseca handed over the walnuts in her hand. "Have some."

Cassie looked at them unpleasantly. "No, they're so dry, why do you like to eat them?"

"I don't like eating them either, but they're good for my brain," said Yesseca.

Cassie was surprised.

"You're right, I think your brain needs them," replied Cassie.

Yesseca looked at Cassie and said, "Cassie, do you think that I'm a fool?"

It seemed that it was not only Tremaine who thought that she was stupid.

Cassie looked at Yesseca, "Yesecca, the man who brought the child the last time, was the man from earlier at the store."

Yesseca nodded.

Cassie said, "Why are you still in touch with him? He brought the child to your workplace that day, and then he came to see you today. Yesseca, tell me, is there something going on between the both of you? Don't do something stupid!"
