Tremaine asked Yesseca what she was laughing at, and Yesseca told him what happened with Preslie's family.
Her eyes were filled with excitement. "Preslie finally got what she wanted from her parents. Her parents have never liked her and never seen her as a human. However, now they treat her lovingly. Preslie will have better days at home in the future."
Tremaine didn't care about Preslie's treatment at home.
But seeing that Yesseca was so happy, he was happy as well.
Tremaine put his arm around Yesseca's waist and whispered, "Anyway, as long as you are happy, that's good."
Yesseca's lips curled into a smile. "Thank you. It's all thanks to you."
If Tremaine hadn't helped her, she couldn't have helped Preslie to get what she wanted.
Tremaine looked at Yesseca with a faint smile. "You are my woman. I would do anything for you."
The smile on Yesseca's face deepened.
After a moment, she suddenly asked, "Has anyone been against our relationship in the President's Office recently? Have the people from Megeland left?"
She had long wanted to ask these questions, but she had never dared to.
On this day, Yesseca was so happy about what had happened that she plucked up the courage to ask.
Tremaine's eyes suddenly darkened.
Navidia and Spencer had left earlier that day, just after Hogan resigned.
However, Tremaine didn't think it was over.
He had the feeling that a huge storm was waiting for him.
Hogan's resignation was an omen.
However, he was ready to face the storm.
Perhaps the matter between him and Yesseca could only be settled after he faced the biggest storm.
Tremaine tightened his arms around Yesseca's waist and said, "They are gone. No one else will object. You don't have to think too much about it."
Tremaine stopped and looked at Yesseca meaningfully. "Yesseca, you are not desperate to marry me, are you? Do you want me to hold a wedding right now as you are afraid that there will be someone who will oppose our marriage?"
Yesseca was at a loss for words.
The beautiful atmosphere instantly fell to freezing point.
Yesseca pushed Tremaine's hand away from her waist.
She stood up. "You are the desperate one! You are the one who's afraid of having your marriage being opposed!"
After saying that, Yesseca left angrily.
Tremaine was left speechless.
He was confused.
Did he say something wrong again?
He was just joking with Yesseca because the atmosphere was great. He'd wanted to make the atmosphere better, but why did Yesseca suddenly get angry?
Tremaine didn't understand.
After thinking for a moment, Tremaine called Matthew.
He told Matthew what had just happened.
Hearing this, Matthew burst into laughter.
He said helplessly, "Tremaine, saying a woman is desperate is just trying to start a fight."
Tremaine replied, "So what you mean is I shouldn't be making fun of women in the future."
"It's not that you can't joke." Matthew explained, "You just can't joke on such a scale."
"What scale?" Tremaine couldn't understand. "Was I too harsh?"
Matthew was speechless.
He wanted to explain in detail to Tremaine but suddenly felt that there was no need for that.
Everyone was different.
There was no need for him to use his own standards to ask Tremaine to do some things.
Besides, although Tremaine's joke had made Yesseca a little angry, her anger would soon be gone.
From a different perspective, this sort of anger could also be treated as a trifling affair between a man and a woman.
Matthew changed his words, "If you think it was no big deal, then it doesn't matter. As long as you comfort her later, she will soon calm down."
