My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1858

Hogan was fearless, "Mr. Tremaine, even if you kill me, I will still stand by what I've said!"

Tremaine's face was full of anger.

He was on the verge of ordering his soldiers to throw Hogan out.

He had to teach this old man a lesson.

Otherwise, this old man would grow even more arrogant in time!

It was one thing to tolerate Hogan's stubbornness by himself, but he couldn't bear to hash things out with Yesseca around!

Just when Tremaine was about to give the order, Yesseca suddenly said: "Mr. Welmert, if you want to say anything, then just say it."

She had already heard that the people within the presidential palace were against her and Tremaine.

At the time, she hadn't taken it personally, because it hadn't seemed like a big deal to her.

But now, she realized that things weren't as simple as she had thought they were.

That's why she wanted to hear what Mr. Welmert had to say.

"Yesseca, don't listen to his nonsense!" Tremaine said with his deep voice.

She ignored Tremaine.

She then looked at Hogan, "Mr. Welmert, please speak."

Hogan asked directly, "Miss Cowell, do you know anything about politics?"

Yesseca was stunned.

She didn't know the first thing about it.

She shook her head.

Hogan continued, "Miss Cowell, Tremaine is the president. He isn't an ordinary person. He shoulders the responsibility of protecting the countless citizens of Nashaland and it's territories. His every move must be for the sake of the country and his subjects. It is the same for his marriage. Miss Cowell, I hear that you come from an ordinary family and you have served as a maid once before, correct?"

Yesseca nodded.

This was true. There was nothing to deny here.

Hogan spoke with a hint of sarcasm, "Miss Cowell, if the citizens of Nashaland and even those from other countries were to learn that their president has married a maid, they will then start looking down on him!"

"Hogan, shut up!" Tremaine roared furiously.

"Be quiet!" Yesseca glared at Tremaine. "Let him speak!"

Tremaine kept quiet.

Hogan looked at the both of them, a hint of surprise in his gaze.

He knew that Tremaine treated Yesseca well, but never expected that she would dare to talk back to him like this. He'd expected Yesseca to be humble towards Tremaine. Unexpectedly, she dared to tell him to shut up!

Hogan was secretly impressed.

He had underestimated Yesseca. This woman wasn't as simple as he had thought.

"Miss Cowell, if Tremaine were to get married, he must marry a woman who can be of help to him. The daughter of the president of Megeland would be the most suitable candidate. Although Nashaland has been developing well over the years, we have limited land. Megeland is right next to us and has a powerful military force. If he married the daughter of the president of Megeland, we would be able to unite both countries with an alliance. Then Nashaland would become the most powerful country in the world!"

A wave of complicated emotions surged within Yesseca.

If she had ignored Hogan, she never would have known!

She had always assumed that the president would marry a woman simply because he liked her. She didn't know how complicated things actually were! "Hogan! I will only say this once. As the president, I have the freedom to marry whoever I want. Also, I already have whatever it takes to make Nashaland the number one country in the world. There is no need to ally with Megeland!"

Hogan replied, "Mr. Tremaine, I know that you are an extremely capable man. Among the many presidents we've had, only a handful of them matched up to you. However, no matter how capable you are, your abilities are limited by Nashaland's borders, so it is in our best interest to form an alliance with Megeland."

"Shut up!"

"Sir, I'm doing this for the sake of Nashaland, and for the sake of the people. Sir, I'm loyal to my country!"

Tremaine glared at Hogan and grabbed Yesseca's hand. "Upstairs, now."

Yesseca was dazed.
