Yesseca said honestly, "Didn't I tell you that I have a sister and brother-in-law who are quite well off? They hired him."
Tremaine squinted.
Her older sister and brother-in-law. Yesseca did mention them before, but he didn't pay much attention to them...
Tremaine gathered his thoughts.
He carefully observed Yesseca.
Although there was still a faint sign of sadness in her eyes, he could tell that this was far from over.
"You should get some rest." Tremaine said.
Yesseca knew that Tremaine was going to leave.
She nodded. "Okay."
As soon as Tremaine turned around to leave, Yesseca slapped her forehead.
Tremaine turned around when he heard her slap herself.
"It seems that I can't leave. You're going to hurt yourself when I do."
Yesseca was quiet.
She looked at Tremaine speechless, "No, no, I just remembered that I have to go to work today. I didn't request for leave..."
Realizing that Yesseca was still working, Tremaine felt more at ease.
Since she wanted to go to work, she must be feeling a lot better.
"I'll take you there," Tremaine said.
Now that she was much closer to Tremaine, Yesseca didn't have to be so formal. She nodded and said, "Thank you."
The car sped towards the shopping mall.
"Thank you for dropping me off." Yesseca opened the door and was about to leave when she suddenly stopped. "Oh right, you have to apologize to that psychologist. You can't just do that to him."
Tremaine's face darkened. His deep stare seemed to have pierced into her heart. "You've brought this up several times now. Yesseca, do you like him?"
Yesseca was quiet.
She said helplessly, "How is that possible? He's bald. I don't like bald people."
She didn't seem to be flustered. She only wanted to dissuade Tremaine's suspicions.
Tremaine narrowed his eyes. "Is that true."
"Of course it is."
He smiled briefly. "Take care of yourself."
As Yesseca walked into the mall and walked out of sight, Tremaine looked at his rear-view mirror.
Yes, his hair was thick and healthy.
Just now, when she'd mentioned the psychologist, Yesseca was worried about what he must have thought of everything that happened. She couldn't afford to have another big problem. She had to ask Matthew for his address, so she could personally apologize to him.
After all, if it wasn't for her, the psychologist wouldn't have suffered such an unexpected injury.
Hold on!
Suddenly, it felt like a bolt of lightning had struck her brain.
She remembered something!
She had felt like something was wrong earlier at her home, but she couldn't figure out what it was at that time. But now, she remembered.
"Tremaine accused me of being alone with a man in my own home and said I owed him an explanation!"
Why did she have to explain anything to him?
That wasn't right!
Not to mention that there wasn't anything going between her and the psychologist. Even if there was something, she had no obligation to explain it to him. He had no right to question her.
Yesseca just couldn't figure it out.
An hour later, a luxury car arrived at Yesseca's house.
