Yesseca felt her knees giving out.
Her head was hazy. Before she knew it, she was on the bed, and a striking pain hit her.
She couldn't help but grab the bedsheet with her hand.
Night fell.
An hour later, she couldn't hold on any longer.
She felt sore, and it was like a train had railed her.
Right then, she was about to cry.
Suddenly, there was an urgent knock on the door.
Hope flashed across Yesseca's eyes.
She thought that Tremaine would finally stop.
But it was all just her wishful thinking.
He ignored the knock at the door.
Soon, a male voice sounded from behind the door.
"Your Excellency, please open the door. I know you're in there. I have something urgent to speak to you about." It was Hogen's voice.
There had never been a moment when Yesseca was so happy to hear him.
However, Tremaine's face darkened.
"D*mn Hogan!" he cursed inside.
He wanted to ignore Hogan and continue what they were doing.
Yesseca couldn't help but say, "Mr. Welmert is looking for you. Hurry and get up."
"I don't care about that old man."
She was rendered speechless.
She looked at him pitifully. "You might not care about him, but what about me? I will pass out if you don't stop."
Her body was about to explode.
Tremaine did not know what to say.
Only then did he remember that she might not be able to keep up with his stamina. Although it was not her first time, it had been some time between then and now.
Just then, he cooled himself off, suppressing his desire.
Then, he got up.
Yesseca finally let out a sigh of relief.
Pain coursed through her entire body, and no part of her body felt like hers.
Tremaine covered Yesseca with a down jacket and looked at her with lust in his eyes. "Rest up. I'll be back after I see what Hogan wants."
Tremaine went out of the bedroom.
He didn't look well.
At the same time, Hogan's expression was also not good.
As soon as Tremaine came out, Hogan said, "Your Excellency, why were you with her again?"
Tremaine raised his eyebrows and said, "I have always been with her. What do you mean why?"
Hogan didn't know what to say.
He hoped that Tremaine would know what was more important now.
Just as he was about to leave, Tremaine stopped him.
Hogan turned around.
He said, "Your Excellency, do you have anything else to say?"
Tremaine glanced at him and said, "Mr. Welmert, I have to remind you of one thing. This is the last of you knocking on my door. If I see you do it again, I would break whichever hand you used to knock on my door."
Hogan raised his head and said fearlessly, "Your Excellency, I might have disturbed you, but I came with good intentions. I'm only doing it for Nashaland and its people. Can't you see my loyalty?"
Tremaine did not know what to say.
His head began to ache faintly.
Instead, he waved his hand and said, "Leave now!"
After Hogan left, Tremaine sat on the sofa, deep in thought.
Spencer would arrive the next day.
Hogan must be right about Spence's purpose... to bring up his marriage with Navidia.
He was not slow. After spending a few days with her, he knew of her feelings for him. But he had always feigned ignorance. He didn't expect that not only would she not get his hint, but she'd also asked her father to visit him.
It was obvious that they wanted to bring it to the table.
If Spencer brought it up and he refused it, it would mean humiliation to Spencer. The two countries would become enemies.
So the only way was not to let Spencer bring it up.
Tremaine's eyes turned cold, flashing with aloofness. No one could tell what he was thinking.
