Tremaine went back to the bedroom again.
Yesseca was already asleep.
But he was still not satisfied.
Just as he wanted to touch her again, he paused, focusing on a spot on her body.
On her fair skin, there were some bruises.
His whole body froze.
And suddenly he felt guilty.
He had acted too rashly and bruised her. It was no wonder she had been asking him to stop.
Just then, he suppressed his desire.
If he continued this, she might be worn out.
But it was not easy for him to hold back.
Therefore, he stood up and went into the shower.
After the cold shower, he realized that he would make her feel chilly if he hugged her.
He got out of bed.
He did a series of warm-up exercises.
When he was warmer, Tremaine got back in and hugged Yesseca.
However, his lust overtook him once again.
He thought of sleeping in the other room, but he was reluctant to leave her. He tossed and turned until the wee hours of morning before falling asleep from exhaustion.
The next day soon arrived.
Yesseca woke up.
She had had a dream the night before.
It was about Tremaine.
He had turned into a huge truck, chasing her and running over her.
She kept running, but she couldn't outrun him.
Eventually, he caught up with her.
He did it over and over again. He didn't even notice she was on the verge of death as she cried in pain.
Even now, when she was awake, she felt sore all over.
Yesseca rubbed her eyes.
She knew the soreness on her body was not a dream but reality. After all, she and Tremaine had been intimate for over an hour. And if it weren't for Hogan, who came knocking on the door, he would not have stopped.
However...
She paused.
Where did he go?
She fell asleep as soon as he went out the night before. Now that she was up, she wondered if he had gone to work or he had not returned to the bedroom.
In the end, she chose to believe the latter.
According to how well she knew him, Tremaine would have come back and continued the torture. Therefore, Yesseca thought that he did not return after leaving.
But why didn't he come back? Did Hogan say something to him again?
Yesseca bit her lip.
She thought it was quite possible.
Hogan must be exerting pressure on Tremaine again.
A strange emotion rippled in her heart.
Although he said nothing, it must be difficult for him. She was a woman, and she didn't know political affairs. Therefore, she couldn't do anything for him. Just then, she had an idea to go grocery shopping.
The only thing she could do was to fix dinner for him that night.
Preslie woke up that morning.
She had had a rough night as she'd fallen asleep quite late. She was still blurry about her surroundings when she opened the door, wanting to go to the bathroom.
The moment she opened the door, she saw Sheldon in a suit.
He was about to leave.
Their eyes met.
Suddenly, she was uncertain if she was dreaming or not.
Nervous, she looked at him, "Was it true that the president of Megeland is visiting Nashaland to propose marriage between the two countries?"
There was a flash of hesitation in Sheldon's eyes.
He didn't want to tell Preslie about this.
With her way of thinking, he was almost sure that another misunderstanding would happen. Seeing her pitiful eyes, he gave in.
Finally, he said yes.
After that, he left promptly.
He was afraid that she would ask more questions.
His simple reply made her swallow her words.
It was over.
Now that the princess's father had come to force a marriage, what would become of Yesseca?
Right then, Preslie scratched her head.
She decided to tell Yesseca about this piece of information.
When she was about to call her, she received a call from Yesseca.
"You don't have to go to work today, am I right?
Would you go to the supermarket with me to get some stuff?" Yesseca said.
Hearing her words, Preslie swallowed and decided not to tell Yesseca now.
They were going to meet later, and it would be better to tell Yesseca about it face to face.
If she told Yesseca now, Yesseca would be in a bad mood. The later, the better, she assumed.
"Alright." With that, Preslie agreed.
Half an hour later, Yesseca and Preslie met up.
Yesseca selected some ingredients, telling Preslie about her intentions to cook for Tremaine that night.
Preslie did not answer.
It was like something was weighing on her mind.
Yesseca asked, "Why do I feel that something is wrong with you today?"
