It certainly wasn't easy to get everything prepared in time too.
However, because of Yesseca's erratic behaviour, Tremaine had to rush things. He was even prepared to tell her everything before he was ready to.
Because he didn't like her acting this way.
He didn't like how she was so cold to him and how she pretended to not even know him.
Although he should have told her sooner, he couldn't do it today.
He had to be at the Shiryu Palace today.
This time, it wasn't a day trip. Instead, he would be staying there for a month.
He then decided he would tell her how he felt about her after he came back.
"Yesseca," Tremaine said. "I'll be away for a whole month."
Astonishment streaked through Yesseca's gaze.
Tremaine would be away for a month.
The look of surprise on her face soon vanished. She then let out a long sigh of relief.
Tremaine would be away for a month.
This was good.
A month is a very long time.
Long enough to forget about him.
She figured that after a month, she wouldn't harbor any more feelings for Tremaine. She and Kyi in would grow much closer in that time.
"Sir, was there something you wanted to purchase?" Yesseca asked again.
Tremaine was quiet.
His eyes narrowed. "Not only are you a fool, but a broken recorder as well."
Yesseca felt hurt by his comment.
She was stupid.
She really was stupid!
How could she be so stupid as to fall in love with Tremaine?
This womanizer, this pervert who peeked at women while they were changing their clothes.
Even without knowing all that, she was still stupid for liking him.
It was just as Cassie had said. He was divorced and had a child with him.
Why else would she have fallen in love with a man who broke his vows instead of a gentle, modest, and unmarried young man like Kylin?
It was because she was stupid.
She was an absolute idiot.
"Sir, was there something you wanted to buy?" Yesseca asked again.
Tremaine remained silent.
He looked at her, dejected. "Yesseca, I'll come see you in a month's time. Until then, please take good care of yourself. If you're in any danger, call me immediately."
The danger he was referring to was the face that Yesseca had seen by her window.
He hadn't found out anything yet.
The person responsible was so elusive and well prepared that his intelligence network couldn't find anything even until now.
Although he said that, he had already taken extra measures to ensure her safety.
He had already assigned people to keep watch over her apartment.
These men would keep watch on her 24-7 and ensure that no form of harm came near to her.
As he had to be in the Shiryu Palace for an entire month, he won't be able to access the security camera feed. That’s why he assigned his men to keep an eye on her to ensure that there weren't any unwelcome surprises.
Yesseca was baffled when she heard him say this.
Danger.
What danger could she be in?
Maybe she was in danger because of Tremaine.
Now that he would be away, she wouldn't be in danger anymore.
Yesseca muttered to herself, "I'll be fine,"
With him gone, she would definitely be fine.
In the past two days, Yesseca had spoken to him so coldly. Despite all that, Tremaine felt that Yesseca's reply this time was humane at the very least.
He felt relieved.
It was nice to see her act normally again.
He then moved closer.
He reached out and pinched her cheeks.
Yesseca had a very slender figure, but she had exceptionally chubby cheeks. Tremaine couldn't resist the urge to pinch them every time he saw her.
