My Heart only Beats for You

"Why do I have to leave, but you get to stay?" Montez asked.

"I'm going to apply the medicine on her." Tremaine replied curtly.

Montez wasn't convinced. "Daddy, I can do that myself. Give me the medicine."

"You!" Tremaine glared at Montez, he looked furious.

Montez stubbornly glared back in silence.

He felt deeply insulted.

Montez's neck turned red. "I can do it! I can do it!"

"Stop acting like a fool and get out!" Tremaine said sternly.

Montez was scared of Tremain and quickly ran out of the room.

Only Tremaine and Yesseca were left inside.

Yesseca felt flustered, but at the same time not.

She was stunned by what Tremaine had said earlier, but then realized what he meant. This was his way of showing that he cared about her, he probably couldn't say it outright. Then again she was probably overthinking things.

But even after telling herself that, when she saw Tremaine, her heart started beating faster.

In order to ease the tension in her heart, Yesseca coughed and asked, "Why did you tell Montez to leave? You could have let him stay and watch."

Yesseca did feel that Tremaine was much too strict with Montez sometimes.

Like just now. There was no need for him to get so upset because Montez wouldn't leave.

Tremaine looked at Montez and said gently, "Montez adores you way too much. He'd be very sad to see you in pain after I've applied the medicine on your wound."

She held her breath.

Seeing Tremaine's indifferent expression, she realized that she had misjudged him.

Tremaine said that he chased Montez away because he would have made a fool of himself in front of her.

That wasn't the case at all.

He was afraid that Montez would feel uncomfortable.

"Why didn't you just tell him that? Why cause such a misunderstanding?" Yesseca felt compelled to ask him these questions.
