Yesseca stammered, "Lothar, does this mean you're agreeing? A-Although he is nice, I don't have feelings for him."
The star did not blink nor did it become dimmer.
Looking at the stars, she continued, "Lothar, you're confused as well, right? Selina wants me to give him a chance and try going out with him. I know she means well, and I don't want to disappoint her either. But when I think of agreeing to it, I would feel my heart beating fast. I don't understand."
She paused for a moment before sighing, "Can you visit me in my dream tonight? And show me a sign on what to do? I'm a little confused now."
As soon as she finished, she heard a vibration.
She was shocked.
It turned out that her phone was vibrating.
She received a text message.
It was Tremaine who sent it.
She felt her heart beating wildly.
All she could hear in that quiet night was her heartbeat.
Right then, she felt her mouth was dry.
Why had he texted her at this hour?
With that, she opened the message.
At first, she was feeling rather nervous. But the feeling disappeared when she read the contents.
It was in fact a message from Montez.
"Yesseca, I took my dad's phone to send you a message. I miss you so much. Did you miss me?"
Seeing the content, Yesseca laughed.
She immediately replied.
"I miss you too."
Very soon, she received a reply.
"I knew you would miss me too. I hope you're not mad at Dad. He's been acting strange today. He's old, and he gets confused easily. Don't blame him."
"I won't," she replied.
After seeing Yesseca's message, Montez paused for a moment to think. He felt a need to give her an explanation. After all, she would be his wife in the future, and his dad would be her father-in-law. It would be bad for him if their relationship was not great.
With that, he typed solemnly.
"Yesseca, I was going to take a shower that day, but I saw my Dad in the shower when I entered.
He was showering in cold water, and I saw his... I don't know why he got mad. But it might be because I saw that his mushroom was mutated, and it became quite big. He must be mad because I saw that hideous thing."
He finished typing in one breath and sent it.
After that, he deleted the message.
He might be young, but he was cautious. After all, he would get a scolding if his father saw it.
Ding!
The phone vibrated again.
Yesseca checked her messages.
After seeing the message from Montez, she felt her blood froze. Her body started heating up and turning red, just like a boiled shrimp.
My god!
So this was what happened.
He had made it so clear that even the slow-witted her would understand.
Right then, she was embarrassed and ashamed.
It was no wonder that Tremaine was that mad.
Montez was still a child, and so it was okay if he did not understand. However, she was an adult, and she even defended him without understanding the situation. Tremaine must be thinking that she was doing it on purpose. No wonder his face fell.
She was both embarrassed and speechless.
Who would have known Montez would describe it as a mutated mushroom? A mushroom was food, after all.
Yesseca put down her phone.
She did not know what to reply to when she read Montez's message, so she decided to calm herself down with a shower.
Montez waited for a long time for Yesseca's message but received none.
He sent another message.
"Yesseca, are you there?"
For a long time, there was still no reply.
Montez put down the phone in disappointment.
It seemed that Yesseca was no longer online. She was probably asleep.
Montez sneaked back into Tremaine's study with the phone.
