"I was careless. Next time, I won't make any desserts for Montez," Yesseca said guiltily.
A streak of light flashed across Tremaine's eyes.
Yesseca's words were equivalent to a tacit admission.
His mood suddenly turned complicated.
Moments later, Tremaine changed the topic. "I'm going to the office. As for Montez, you don't need to visit him. Grandma's not happy about it."
Yesseca's heart jolted.
Madam Quartley was upset about it?
However, it was also normal.
Although what she did was unintentional, Montez had suffered from diarrhea, after all...
Yesseca bit her lip and said nothing.
Tremaine added, "I'll come back early tonight and have dinner with you."
"Oh, okay." Yesseca nodded absent-mindedly.
She was still thinking about Montez.
Tremaine went out of the bedroom first.
He found Madam Quartley.
He told Madam Quartley that Montez may have gotten diarrhea because of the ingredients Yesseca used. He told Madam Quartley that Yesseca specifically used children's milk powder to make Montez's cookies and used dairy milk to make the servant's batch.
There was probably something wrong with the children's milk, which was why Montez fell sick.
Tremaine emphasized that Yesseca knew nothing about this and told Madam Quartley that she wouldn't be making any desserts for Montez in the future.
These words, of course, were spoken by Tremaine to deal with his grandma.
After all, the same thing had happened to Montez twice and he should give Madam Quartley an explanation.
But how could Madam Quartley believe in Tremaine's words.
She insisted on looking for Yesseca, but Tremaine stopped her.
Tremaine said, "Grandma, I have investigated this matter thoroughly. Let's drop it. I don't want to cause any more trouble."
Madam Quartley's face turned cold. "Tremaine, do you mean to turn a blind eye to that woman hurting your son?" "She didn't harm Montez." Tremaine said, "I told you it was because of the ingredients, and it won't happen again."
Madam Quartley felt that Tremaine was obviously protecting Yesseca.
Something wrong with the ingredients?
There was no problem with the other ingredients, only Montez's batch of cookies had a problem.
How could there be such a coincidence?
Madam Quartley didn't believe it!
"Tremaine." Madam Quartley looked at Tremaine and said word by word, "I won't lecture you. I just want to tell you that Montez is your own son! Don't ignore your own son for a woman!"
"Grandma, I understand." Tremaine said in a deep voice, "No one can replace Montez in my heart. Don't worry."
Tremaine originally wanted to go directly to the President's Office, but after thinking about it, he went to Yesseca.
Yesseca had completely woke up from her sleep. She was sitting on her bed in a daze.
Seeing Tremaine coming into the room, Yesseca asked, "Aren't you going to the office?"
Tremaine sat next to Yesseca, his gaze fixed on her. "Yesseca, have you been feeling emotional recently?"
Yesseca was dazed.
Feeling emotional?
No...?
She was very happy every day and even baked happily. Other than knowing that Montez got sick, she had been fine all this while.
Yesseca shook her head and honestly replied, "No."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
Tremaine lowered his voice as he said, "Has Qiana's arrival made you unhappy or frustrated?"
Yesseca was dumbfounded.
