But she didn't expect that Tremaine would be willing to marry Qiana!
This was really great news.
Madam Quartley's aged face, which was as wrinkled as a bean, relaxed. She said happily, "I'll go and prepare it for you. I'll make sure you'll have a grand wedding."
Later, Madam Quartley told Yuliana the news about Tremaine's marriage to Qiana.
Yuliana was stunned at first, before her heart was filled with injustice and jealousy.
She unhappily went to look for Qiana.
However, Qiana was all smiles even in the face of her cold remarks. She also swore that she would put Yuliana as her first priority after she became Tremaine's wife. In this way, Yuliana could enjoy the most respected treatment in the Quartley Palace.
Yuliana felt mollified after she heard that.
She then gave Qiana a sinister look as she said, "Qiana, you'd better remember what you said at all times, otherwise..."
She sneered.
She didn't finish her words, but it was self-evident.
A good many days had passed, and Selina couldn't take it anymore.
She urged Matthew to head for Nashaland.
"Yesseca has almost recovered. You can also go to Nashaland now to find out what's going on. After all, didn't you mention this before! It's impossible for Tremaine to dump Yesseca for no reason." she exclaimed.
Matthew wanted to wait, but at Selina's restless state he could only relent, "Okay, okay, I'll go to Nashaland tomorrow."
"You must find out what's going on." Selina affirmed.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, it was time to get off work.
The rest of the people had left except for Preslie.
She had hid herself around the corner all this while.
She was waiting for the guard at the entrance to leave their post.
For the past few days, she had been clamoring to see Tremaine, but he'd refused to see her at all. She had no choice but to come up with this plan.
She hid here all afternoon until her legs were numb.
Finally, the guard at the door moved. He scanned his surroundings for a moment, then headed for the toilet.
This guard was finally going to the toilet!
Preslie's eyes lit up.
A good opportunity!
She immediately rushed to the office and barged in with nary a knock.
The moment she pushed the door open, Tremaine looked up.
A pair of deep-set eyes that carried with it a hint of chill.
When she looked into Tremaine's eyes, her heart couldn't help but tremble.
However, she quickly suppressed the fear that was invoked in her heart.
She looked straight into his eyes and said, "Mr. Tremaine."
Tremaine frowned. "Who let you in?"
"Mr. Tremaine, I wanted to tell you about Yesseca. I've gone to look for you numerous times, but you refused to see me. I must talk with you today!" When she thought of Yesseca, her courage rose up together with the sound of her voice.
"Get out!" "Mr. Tremaine! I..."
"Guards!"
Immediately, guards entered the room.
"Take her away."
The guards swiftly went to grab Preslie, but how could she be willing to leave after she spent so much effort to get in? She struggled and cried, "Mr. Tremaine, listen to me. I have something to tell you!"
