She'd patted Ruth on the shoulder and asked her to continue having fun with Zorion, and told her that it was better if they got closer.
Ruth did not understand what Yuliana meant back then. She'd only understood after Yuliana had told Ruth about her plan.
She wanted Zorion to fall in love with Ruth.
Then, she could go to Tremaine and cry in front of him, and she might even have the opportunity to get closer to him. It was normal that men would pity girls when they cried, and she could seize the opportunity once Tremaine pitied her a little.
Ruth was scared out of her wits when she heard about the plan, and she tried her best to talk Yuliana out of it. But Yuliana wouldn't listen at all, and she'd even went to Tremaine that very night.
Realizing that she'd failed to persuade Yuliana, Ruth's heart sank.
"Well, it's very late. You should go to sleep first." Yuliana was about to stand up.
"Madam Yuliana!" Ruth said, "Master Zorion is so deeply in love with you, he's never fall in love with me. Madam Yuliana, you should just give up!"
Yuliana looked at Ruth and suddenly smirked. "Ruth, do you know why I like you so much? Because you have some self-consciousness. Of course, I know that idiot wouldn't fall for you, but as long as he is willing to get closer to you, then I could have a reason to cry in front of Tremaine."
"Madam Yuliana, but.."
Yuliana waved her hands. "Okay, you don't have to say anything more. Don't worry, this matter wouldn't affect you at all. I've already decided, so don't bother me about this again!"
After that, Yuliana went away.
Ruth felt her body had went numb in an instance.
How could Yuliana even think of such a stupid idea?
But she did not dare to go against Yuliana either.
What should she do? What could she possibly do?
Tremaine rushed all the way to Yesseca's neighborhood.
When he got off the car, he immediately rushed to Yesseca's place.
"Knock knock!"
Tremaine knocked on the door loudly.
In the room, Yesseca was still questioning Montez about what he had seen. Due to Yesseca being too agitated, Montez was so frightened that he couldn't even utter a single word.
The more he stayed silent, the more agitated Yesseca became, and Montez was almost tearing up.
Hearing the knock on the door, Montez felt like his savior had finally appeared.
He knew that it was Tremaine.
He immediately strode towards the door and opened it.
It was indeed Tremaine standing right at the door.
Montez almost burst into tears that moment he saw Tremaine.
At that very moment, his father was no big devil nor a bad person, but his savior.
"Daddy!" Montez rushed into Tremaine's arms. "Please hurry up and save Yesseca. She has been possessed by a ghost."
Montez could've just ran out of the house before Tremaine showed up.
However, he was still very worried for Yesseca.
So he could only hold his fear back and stay in the room.
On the other side, Yesseca also ran over to them.
Her hair was all messy and her eyes were wide open. "Montez, tell me what you've seen. Tell me quickly. Didn't you say that you saw a face outside the window..."
Montez's lips were trembling.
Tremaine pulled Montez behind him.
Tremaine stood in front of Yesseca and held her shoulders. "Yesseca, calm down!"
Yesseca couldn't calm down at all. How could she calm down now?
Right then, she only had a single thought in her mind. It was that she wasn't hallucinating at all, her brother was still alive.
Yesseca screamed out loud, "Montez, tell me. Is my brother still here? Did you see him earlier?"
