My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 2074

Perhaps there were other reasons.

For example, Yesseca wanted there to be a witness.

A witness to prove that she wasn't alone when she'd gone to the market and that she'd bought the meat at the market. The witness would prove that the problem didn't lie with her, but with the meat itself.

All sorts of thoughts raced through Tremaine's mind, and his head ached.

At the same time, Preslie made a call to Yesseca.

She wanted to tell Yesseca that Tremaine had questioned her.

But no one answered the phone.

Preslie went to look for Sheldon and reproached him for telling Tremaine that Yesseca had gone to the market. Tremaine was upset because of this.

Sheldon was confused.

That day, while in the car, he'd just mentioned this to Tremaine in passing, thinking that it was something amusing. He hadn't expected Tremaine to actually question Preslie about it. It seemed that Tremaine was upset.

Sheldon said doubtfully, "Mr. Tremaine's upset? What's there to be upset about?"

He felt that it was more likely that Tremaine would find this amusing. At most, he'd make fun of Yesseca for it, but there was no need for him to be upset.

Preslie said, "Because he feels that Yesseca's an embarrassment to him. Think about it. She's the president's wife- to- be. It's not befitting of her status to go to the market."

Sheldon was puzzled.

He said, "I can guarantee you that Mr. Tremaine isn't like that. He won't be embarrassed by Yesseca going to the market."

"No way. I think that's exactly what he thinks." Preslie recalled how Tremaine had obviously been displeased when questioning her. If he didn't think that Yesseca was an embarrassment, what was it, then?

Sheldon did not know whether to laugh or cry at Preslie's affirmative tone.

He said, "Preslie, which one of us has known Mr. Tremaine longer? Don't tell me you think that you know him better than I do. I'm telling you that that's impossible, and I'm sure of it!"

Preslie started to waver in the face of Sheldon's firm attitude.

She asked, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure," Sheldon said. "If I knew that Mr. Tremaine would get mad if he were to know about this, I wouldn't even have told him."

Preslie said nothing.

She mumbled, "If he's not mad, then why'd he question me? Why did he look so upset?"

Sheldon felt that Preslie must have been overthinking things.

He said, "He was probably just asking out of curiosity. You know how much he loves Yesseca and wants to know everything about her. As for being upset, you know that Mr. Tremaine only smiles when it comes to Yesseca."

That was why Preslie thought Tremaine was unhappy.

Preslie fell silent.

Sheldon's words made sense. After listening to him, Preslie felt that it was very likely that she was just overthinking matters.

Tremaine met up with the driver that had taken Yesseca to the market the day before.
