The man's voice was full of anger, sarcasm, and also a sort of indescribable emotion.
Yesseca looked at Tremaine with disbelief.
What on earth was this man talking about?
She said in a hoarse voice, "I'm not only afraid of him coming in, but anyone else as well. Tremaine, why do you have to speak such nonsense?"
"Nonsense?" Tremaine's voice was cold as a glacier, bringing in thunderstorms. "Is it nonsense that you've held that man's hand then? Since when did you start this relationship? Yesseca, you're more capable than I thought!"
Yesseca bit her lip hard.
Tremaine was going too far.
She and Kylin didn't have that sort of relationship, but even if they did, what did that have to do with Tremaine?
Yesseca's cheeks were flushed, "Kylin and I have nothing going on. He helped me earlier today, and that's why I treated him to dinner. As for why did he suddenly took my hand, I don't know anything about it. My mind was in a total mess at that time as well. Tremaine, nothing is going on between us. And even if there is, it's none of your business either! What rights do you have to scold me here?"
"Because I am..." Tremaine stopped in the middle of his sentence.
He looked at Yesseca, whose face was flushed with grievance and anger. Her eyes were full of tears, as if she was going to cry at any time.
He suddenly felt annoyed.
"There's nothing going on between you and him?" He suddenly asked after a while.
Yesseca raised her voice, which was filled with grievance and rage. "Of course, there's nothing at all!"
"Remember what you said. You'd better not lie to me." Tremaine looked at Yesseca gloomily, then left the restroom directly.
After Tremaine left, Yesseca slowly slid into a sitting position like a deflated balloon. The coldness surrounded her. The restaurant had been warm, yet everything made her feel as if she was in the North Pole.
It was so cold, so cold that she couldn't bear it.
Tears of grievance flowed out from her eyes.
What had just happened?
She had only gone out for a meal. Why had she suddenly met Tremaine? Why had he suddenly done all sorts of weird stuff to her and also speak those weird words?
How had she offended that man? What did she even do wrong?
Tremaine, how could he?
How could he?
Kylin was out looking for Yesseca, yet he couldn't find her.
He could not help but feel anxious.
Yesseca didn't have her phone with her, and he had no way at all to contact her. If he still couldn't find her, he could only call Selina and get someone to look for her.
Kylin returned along the same route.
He wanted to search the surrounding area. If he still couldn't find her, he'll give Selina a call.
At the end, he really found Yesseca outside the restaurant.
Yesseca was walking extremely slowly on the road.
Kylin pressed on his car horn in front of Yesseca, yet she seemed as if shed heard nothing.
Kylin got out of his car immediately.
"Yesseca!" He called.
Yesseca still did not give him any response.
Kyi in did not dare to grab her hand so casually again. He could only block her way. "Yesseca, what happened?"
Only then did Yesseca finally stop walking.
She raised her chin and looked up at Kylin.
Seeing the expression on her face, Kyi in's heart skipped a beat.
Yesseca's face was pale, and her eyes seemed to have lost its focus.
