My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1959

Hogan, however, wasn't an ordinary person himself.

He composed himself and said, "I haven't seen you in such a long time, but you still talk to me like you always do."

Tremaine laughed.

Hogan ordered his servants to pour some earl grey tea for Tremaine.

Both of them sat on the bench while Sheldon stood at the side.

"Mr. President, why have you come here?" Hogan asked.

After asking this, he then added without waiting for Tremaine's response, "Mr. President, you should know that I am no longer employed to serve at the presidential office. I find my days very leisurely now. Everyday, I find myself enjoying a cup of tea and a nice walk. It's so boring."

Tremaine snorted to himself.

Hogan, this old geezer.

He was well aware that Tremaine had come all this way to personally invite him back to the presidential office. Yet he could still say such things.

Tremaine said, "Mr. Welmert, I understand you are enjoying your retirement. I had no intention of ever disturbing you. It's just that Yesseca and I are about to be married. I have come today to invite you to our wedding. After all, you have been my mentor for so many years. How could I not invite you to my wedding?"

He didn't say anything else. He was going to let Hogan decide.

Upon hearing this, Hogan became serious.

He then let out a long sigh.

Hogan was well aware that the tides had changed, and the people of Nashaland were now on board with their marriage, he had nothing to say about that anymore.

All he could now was simply accept their marriage.

It was fortunate that most of Nashaland had accepted their marriage. It wasn't that he had never considered this possible. It was because, at the time, having Tremaine marry a commoner would have caused a major uproar which would put the country in an unstable state.

"Mr. President, are you really going to marry Yesseca?" Hogan asked.

"I've already took it this far, do you still believe this to be fake?" Tremaine asked.

Hogan shook his head and said, "Mr. President, even though the people of Nashaland now approve of your marriage with Yesseca, I'm afraid I will still have to play the devil's advocate here. Things won't go smoothly for very long in your life. Mr. President, your actions have been very unwise. You will always be walking on thin ice from now on. Yes, marrying a commoner does make your marriage a very compelling one, but then..."

"Mr. President, excuse me for saying this, but the possibility of someone using your marriage against you is very likely. Which is why, your marriage to her will be a major weakness for the rest of your political career. I highly suggest you rethink your marriage!"

Tremaine understood what Hogan was telling him.

All he could do was wait for Hogan to tell him this and simply extend his invitation once more.

Tremaine replied, "Mr. Welmert, I understand what you're saying, but I won't give up on marrying her. I've decided to be with her for the rest of my life. Of course, if you're that worried about me, you can come back to the presidential office to assist me. I believe with your help, Mr. Welmert, my political career will be a very stable one."

Hogan was quiet.

He had just realized that he had fallen into Tremaine's trap.

Hogan shook his head and sighed.

It was often said, 'the older you get, the wiser you become'. He didn't think this saying was true at all right at this moment.

After thinking about it, Hogan decided not to beat around the bush with Tremaine anymore and decided to stop lecturing him.

After all, he wanted to continue being of service at the presidential office again.

Although he was quite old, he was still physically strong and had so much more to contribute to Nashaland. He wasn't keen on living the rest of life simply sipping on tea and taking walks everyday.

Besides, he already knew why Tremaine had come to see him.

Since Tremaine was willing to put his dignity aside to personally invite him back, he would be happy to do so.
