Yesseca didn't believe it. Not a single word.
The man with the crew cut had almost said it, but another man had kicked him, which was the only reason why he did not tell the truth.
Yesseca felt like Matthew noticed this change.
Beneath his kind and handsome facade lurked a devil.
Yesseca suddenly remembered that Lothar had been beaten half to death by Matthew's brother and thrown into the sea.
At that time, she still didn't believe it.
Matthew was a good person, and she thought that his brother would definitely be someone good as well. How could he have done such a thing?
She wouldn't believe it until Matthew admitted it.
Now, however, she came to a realization.
Could it be that Matthew's brother and Matthew were the same? They appeared to be kind people, but in reality they were in fact deplorable individuals.
Yesseca shuddered.
A glint flashed across Matthew's eyes.
"Yesseca, listen to me. I have been looking for Essie because I am afraid that she might be up to something bad. She knows how to do dark magic, and if she ended up doing something bad in the midst of confusion, there would be an irreparable outcome. I've been searching for her for a long time, and every attempt has failed." Matthew paused. "Later, I asked my men to follow you in order to get hold of Essie. They fired their guns in order to capture. That's the truth, Yesseca, I am so sorry for what happened."
Matthew's words completely went over Yesseca's head.
Yesseca couldn't even remember what Matthew had told her.
Matthew also knew that it would be useless to talk to Yesseca at this time.
He could only say, "I'll take you home first. You're in mild shock, you need to get some rest."
Finally, they arrived at Yesseca's home.
Before getting off the car, Matthew said to Yesseca, "Lothar was Selina's best friend, and you're also the person that she cares about the most."
Instead of answering him, Yesseca said, "Will you hurt Essie? Can you promise me that you won't hurt her?"
Matthew promised, "I swear that I will never hurt Essie!"
He just wanted to see Essie and ask her what she was planning to do. He had no intention of hurting her.
After all, if it weren't for Essie, Selina would have died.
"Okay then, keep your promise." After saying that, Yesseca got out of the car.
Sheldon felt very confused.
After all the things that had happened, Tremaine asked Sheldon to drive him around.
This was where that horrible woman who scolded Tremaine lived.
Sheldon thought Tremaine was going to find the woman, but wasn't expecting Tremaine to stay seated in his car.
Sheldon was at a loss for words.
At first, he was silent, but in the end, he couldn't hold back.
He asked, "Aren't you planning to go upstairs? Why are you sitting in the car?"
Tremaine glanced at Sheldon.
His glance sent shivers down his spine.
Sheldon kept his mouth shut.
Time passed by. Just when Sheldon thought Tremaine would be sitting in the car permanently, Tremaine asked, "Do you think I'm someone who overthinks things?"
Sheldon did not reply.
He never thought Tremaine of all people would ask such a question.
Sheldon replied, "Of course not, sir. You're a logical man, why would you say that about yourself?"
Tremaine snorted. "There is no difference between the two."
Sheldon did not reply.
When he didn't know how to continue the conversation, Tremaine, with tiredness etched into his brows, said, "let's go back."
Sheldon remained silent.
Did Tremaine ask him to drive here just so he could sit there in silence?
