"Stop!"
Tremaine suddenly said.
Sheldon immediately stepped on the brake.
He looked at Tremaine with a questioning gaze.
"I want to take another look at her," Tremaine said in a low voice.
In the end, he still could not bear to leave just like that. He wanted to see her one more time.
"Alright." Sheldon turned the car around.
Soon, the scene before their eyes shocked them.
Preslie and Yesseca, who were sitting just now, had already collapsed onto the table. Three men, who looked like gangsters, were surrounding them.
One of the men reached his hand towards Preslie.
Sheldon suddenly stepped on the accelerator and the car rushed over immediately.
When the car stopped, Sheldon and Tremaine immediately ran down at the same time.
When they saw Tremaine and Sheldon get down from the car and rush towards them, they knew that something was wrong. They left Yesseca and Preslie behind and quickly ran off.
As Sheldon was about to chase after them, Tremaine stopped him.
Now that both of them were so drunk, it was not the time to chase after the men, but to inspect what they had just drunk.
Tremaine glanced at the empty bottles on the table.
If it was just beer, they would not be this drunk.
"Bring them to the car and take them to the hospital." After saying that, Tremaine picked up Yesseca.
She was as light as before and she felt weightless in Tremaine's arms.
A familiar smell was detected by Tremaine and his eyes suddenly turned red.
It was Yesseca's unique scent.
The sweet scent of a girl.
He hadn't smelled it for a long time.
On the other side, Sheldon picked up Preslie.
They hadn't seen each other in a short period of time, yet Preslie seemed to have gained some weight. It was rather difficult to carry her.
However...
Sheldon felt that it was nice to hold Preslie again. He did not want to let go.
They then drove to the hospital.
Yesseca's head rested on Tremaine's lap. Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes were closed and her long black hair fell on her pale face. She seemed intoxicated.
Tremaine's gaze had been fixed on Yesseca the entire time.
His eyes were filled with infatuation.
It had been a long time since he was able to stare at Yesseca so closely.
This was the face he had been longing for.
While looking at her from a distance, his heart was already beating rapidly. Now that they were so close, it beat even harder.
After a while, Tremaine suddenly reached out his hand.
He touched Yesseca's face.
It felt as smooth as silk.
Tremaine couldn't help touching every inch of Yesseca's face with his hands. Her delicate eyebrows, straight nose, and pink lips.
He did not have any evil thoughts when touching her. He just wanted to touch her.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
Yesseca and Preslie were examined.
There was nothing particularly wrong with the results.
Their beer contained high alcohol content, that was why they were drunk.
"Mr Tremaine, now...," Sheldon looked at Tremaine with a questioning look.
Tremaine pursed his thin lips and said, "Send them home."
"Okay."
Yesseca was sent home first.
Preslie's mother lowered her voice. "Mr. Hawls, Preslie has never had a boyfriend and she's still a virgin. If you're willing to..." she snickered. "As an elder, I will approve it," she said.
Sheldon was even more embarrassed.
He understood what Celine meant.
However, he was a true gentleman and would not take advantage of others.
"Mrs. Fernandez, where is Preslie's bed? Let me put her there," said Sheldon.
The expectation in Celine's eyes turned into disappointment.
Since Sheldon had said so, it seemed that he had no intention of doing anything to Preslie.
She could only take Sheldon to Preslie's bedroom.
Twenty minutes later, Sheldon arrived at Yesseca's house.
He was going to go enter Yesseca's house, but he didn't after thinking about it.
He then sent a text message to Tremaine.
"Mr Tremaine, I'm downstairs."
Tremaine quickly saw the text message.
He then let go of Yesseca.
He covered Yesseca with the blanket and then adjusted the position of the pillow for her so that she could sleep more comfortably. Then, he saw a photo at the corner of the pillow.
Tremaine took out the photo.
Tremaine knew the person in it.
It was Yesseca's elder brother.
He was someone Yesseca cared about a lot.
Unfortunately, he had passed away some time ago.
However, Yesseca had missed him very much.
Looking at Lothar in the photo, Tremaine felt guilty.
He said in a low voice, "I am sorry I could not take care of your sister. I have disappointed her."
