Yesseca was silent.
She wanted to tell Cassie that it was not the case, but Cassie did not allow her to interrupt.
"I took a close look at his face. He's very handsome, and even I felt tempted, but that's not enough. Yesseca, he's a divorced man with a child, and you're not suited to be a stepmother. The Whitlock boy is more compatible with you. Honestly, you should choose him. I'm so much older than you, and I have seen more of this world than you..."
Yesseca was about to faint from Cassie's words.
When Cassie stopped for a moment, Yesseca took this opportunity and replied hastily, "Cassie, it's really not what you think, there's nothing going on between us."
"Then why did he come here, he wasn't here to buy clothes!"
"He was looking for me to..." Yesseca felt as though her words were stuck in her throat.
Wait, why did Tremaine look for her?
After a customer came in, Cassie walked away. It was as though she'd just woken up from a dream.
Yesseca was puzzled.
Why had Tremaine come by to look for her today, was it just to take her out for a meal?
That did not seem right.
She was the one who had paid for lunch, because Tremaine had not had cash on him.
Perhaps he'd wanted to ask her to pay for the meal.
Even so, Yesseca also felt that something was fishy.
Why would Tremaine want to get a free meal when he was so rich?
In a daze, the phone suddenly rang.
The call was from Selina.
That day, Kylin and Selina had discussed the issue of holding Yesseca's hand. Selina had thought that Kylin was overreacting and told him that he should take more initiative. After listening to Matthew's explanation, Selina realized that she was wrong.
She thought about it again and realized that Kylin might have been too abrupt.
She had to say something to Yesseca to ensure her that Kylin was not a pervert.
"Hello," greeted Yesseca.
"Hi, Yesseca, what are you doing now?"
"I'm working."
"How have you been at work lately?"
"Very good," Yesseca said with a smile.
Upon hearing Yesseca's voice on the phone, she seemed to be in a good mood. Selina felt relieved. "Yesseca, Kylin has been feeling very guilty these past two days, but do you know why?"
Yesseca was taken aback. "Guilty?"
"Yes, I heard that it was because he held your hand, which made you unhappy," said Selina softly.
Yesseca was speechless.
She was also a little embarrassed.
It was because she wasn't aware that Selina knew about this.
"I... I..." Yesseca didn't know how to respond.
"Yesseca, Kylin told me that he was very sorry. He was impulsive that day, but he is not a man who is casual with these things. Let me reassure you, he did not mean to do it," explained Selina.
As Selina spoke, Yesseca became even more embarrassed.
In fact, she had not paid much attention to what happened that day. She was not stupid, and she knew that Kylin was not the kind of man who would take advantage of a woman. Yesseca did not expect Selina to call her just to explain this.
Yesseca said, "It's okay, Selina. It's just a small matter. I'm not mad at him."
