Matthew smiled. He said with his magnetic voice, "Alright, let's wait and see."
At this time, several young women made their way to the Quartley Palace, they were all around the same age as Yesseca.
Once they had entered the palace, they all went straight to Yesseca's bedroom.
They informed her that they were instructed by Tremaine to accompany her.
"Yesseca, the president has informed us that you were feeling lonely, he has instructed us to accompany you."
"What do you like to do, Yesseca? Tell us. We'll accompany you."
"Do you like watching movies, Yesseca? We could watch some together."
"Yesseca, why don't I paint your nails for you? I don't think you've ever had a pedicure before. I'll give you one, I guarantee your nails will look beautiful."
"Do you know how to bake, Yesseca? Why don't I teach you how to make some desserts? I'm quite well known for how good my desserts are with a lot of people. I'll teach you everything I know."
The sudden appearance of all these women caused Yessica's head to buzz.
She had read the news about this morning from her mobile phone.
The news articles explained that several groups of people in Nashaland were protesting in streets against Tremaine's decision to marry a commoner.
It felt like her head had exploded when she read this.
She knew that the commoner stated in the article was her.
Just as she was about to call Tremaine to ask him about what was going on, several girls suddenly entered her room.
After being introduced to these girls, Yesseca didn't get the chance to make her phone call.
She made several attempts to interrupt the girls, but failed at every chance.
The girls pulled Yesseca away and gave her a pedicure, taught her how to make some desserts and did her hair.
Yesseca felt her head spin. Because these women kept distracting her, she was unable to call Tremaine.
Meanwhile, at the Quartley Palace.
Tremaine's eyes were concentrating on something.
"Mr. President, the final stop for the protestors will be outside the gate to the presidential office." Sheldon carefully observed Tremaine as he said this.
Early that morning, several groups of people had begun to gather and conduct their protest.
The entire list of staff at the presidential office were running about in a panic, but Tremaine remained as calm as ever.
Aside from asking two simple questions, he hadn't said anything else.
The first question was where the crowd had gone.
And the second, was where the crowd was heading towards.
After Sheldon answered his questions, Tremaine then said, "When they arrive at the gates, tell them that I will speak to them, and start the live broadcast."
"Yes, Mr. President."
"I object to you marrying that commoner!"
"Please retract your decision and marry Navidia, the princess of Megeland!"
"For the sake of all of Nashaland, please retract your decision!"
There were waves upon waves of slogans being sung out on the streets of Nashaland, and there were countless onlookers on the sides of the road. Everyone was talking about it.
"Why does our president want to marry a commoner? None of the previous presidents ever did. Shouldn't he be using his position to enter into a political marriage instead?"
"Yeah, our president has always been wise. He's making such a silly decision!"
"The princess of Megeland would make a good wife for him. Didn't the princess come to visit him in person? Even the president of Megeland came to see him. This proves that Megeland intends to form an alliance with Nashaland. Why didn't the president agree to it?"
"What kind of person is that commoner like? She was able to charm our president. She sounds amazing!"
Among the crowd there was a young woman who looked terribly dejected as the she listened to the chorus of slogans and the myriad of discussions on the streets.
