My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 2024

How could she explain it to Montez?

Yesseca's head was aching.

Matthew said, "Don't forget Madam Quartley. As an elder, she certainly doesn't want her great grandson to have a stepmother. You have to make Madam Quartley accept you with an open heart."

The veins on Yesseca's forehead were popping.

Make Madam Quartley accept herself...

Yesseca felt like landing on the moon was a more feasible task.

She wanted to say something back to Matthew, but after thinking about it, she refrained.

If she told him that, it would just make Matthew even more worried.

She just agreed to it and said, "Okay, Matthew. I will think about how to deal with it."

"And Qiana," Matthew said. "Yesseca, this woman wants to be with Tremaine really badly. I am afraid that she might do something underhanded, so you must be careful."

When Matthew had met Qiana that day, he'd silently observed her.

Qiana had seemed very gentle and nice, but when she spoke, her eyes had moved around a lot.

That woman hid a lot of her thoughts

Of course, Matthew couldn't distinguish whether or not Qiana was a tricky or cruel person with just a few sentences, so he could only warn Yesseca.

Hearing Matthew's words, Yesseca didn't think much about it.

After all, it was normal for Qiana to want to be with Tremaine.

She was Montez's mother after all.

Who wanted their own child to have a stepmother?

On the day of their wedding, Qiana had come pleading to her and told her about her intentions straightforwardly.

"Yesseca, if you have any troubles, call me immediately. But I believe you can solve these things on your own." Matthew said, "You must always remember the biggest advantage you have."

"Biggest advantage?" Yesseca muttered.

"It's Tremaine's love for you." Matthew said, "That's your biggest advantage."

It was precisely because of this advantage of hers that Matthew could relax and allow Yesseca to learn how to solve the problems she would face in the future.

The recent problem between Yesseca and Tremaine also reminded Matthew that he and Selina couldn't lay down the bricks for single step in Yesseca's journey in life. Yesseca had to figure out how to settle her own issues, or else she might have to face a lot more problems alone in future.

"I understand." Yesseca said. "Thank you, Matthew."

Two hours later, Tremaine returned to the bedroom.

When he entered, he used all his strength to hug her tightly, almost to the point of suffocating her.

Yesseca's face turned all red.

She said with difficulty, "Tremaine, let me go."

"Let me hug you."

Yesseca squeezed out the words from her throat, "I do want to let you hug me, but if you go on like this, I'll be hugged to death."

Tremaine was speechless.

Hethen released Yesseca.

"Yesseca, I'm sorry. Yuliana will have to continue staying in Quartley Palace. I'm sorry but I can't do anything about this." In Tremaine's tone there was a hint of guilt.

It was because of his incompetence.

He couldn't stand up for Yesseca because Zorion had kept pleading with him. Zorion had told him how much he loved Yuliana, and that he wouldn't be able to live if Yuliana left. His cries made Tremaine reluctant to make a move.

It wasn't because he didn't want to kick Yuliana out.

He just couldn't bear to see his brother acting like that.

Yesseca had already predicted that Tremaine wouldn't be able to drive Yuliana away.

Although Tremaine seemed cold, he wasn't a ruthless person. He valued his family very much.

Even if he rarely communicated with Zorion, it was obvious that Tremaine cared about his brother very much.

"Yesseca, if it was anyone else who pleaded, even if my grandmother was pressuring me, I could ignore it. But for him, I can't." Tremaine said to Yesseca in a low voice, "Because I owe him."

Tremaine felt guilty towards Zorion, but he had restrained himself and never showed it so that others couldn't tell.

Zorion originally wanted to leave Tremaine's place after he was married, but Tremaine insisted on living together with his brother. He knew that his brother's mind wasn't capable, and he was afraid that Zorion might get bullied if he lived alone.

There was also Yuliana. He hated Yuliana with a passion. Yuliana had done several things that made her intolerable for Tremaine, yet for Zorion, he'd chosen to shoulder it.

It was not until Yuliana completely crossed Tremaine's limit that he wanted to kick her out.

However, seeing Zorion pleading with him like that, Tremaine couldn't bear to.

He knew that he had let Yesseca down.

Tremaine felt guilty towards Yesseca.

It was also the first time Yesseca had seen a man feeling this dejected for her.

He had always been calling her a silly goose, and always seemed so high and mighty. From what Yesseca remembered, this was probably the first time she'd seen him looking so ashamed.

For some reason, Yesseca felt a little distressed for him.

She felt like Tremaine must be going through a lot right now.

He was feeling guilty towards his own brother, and also for herself.

He was most likely having a tough time.

Yesseca didn't want to see Tremaine being sad.

Tremaine was always calling her a silly goose, and he was always so domineering. She'd always wondered what would it be like if he wasn't acting like he was the best thing that had happened since sliced bread.

Now, she finally saw it.

At that very moment, she hoped that Tremaine would soon be back to how he was always was.

She would rather Tremaine be arrogant and proud than to see him being that way.

After thinking for a moment, Yesseca suddenly started laughing out loud.

She continued laughing, leaving Tremaine dumbfounded.

He never imagined that Yesseca would laugh in such a situation.
