My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

When Tremaine reached Yesseca's apartment complex, he suddenly thought of something.

It was very likely that Yesseca would say something to provoke him. They would probably end up getting into another fight.

He had to keep his emotions in check.

He had to make sure that he was in a good place beforehand.

He called Sheldon and asked him whether there was anything that could make him happier.

He asked Sheldon for advice on what he could to feel better.

"Aside from drugs," Tremaine added.

Though drugs were the most efficient, as the president of a country, there was no way he could do something like that.

On the other end of the line, Sheldon was confused.

Why was the President asking him such a question out of the blue?

However, as a soldier, he had to obey his orders.

Since the President was asking, Sheldon answered truthfully. "Sir, there's something called phhylamine in chocolate which can increase one's happiness levels. Frequent consumption of chocolate can make one feel happier."

"Are you sure?" Tremaine frowned.

To him, chocolate was junk food.

"Positive. Sir, I have a friend who eats a lot of chocolate whenever he's upset, and he becomes happy every time."

Tremaine considered this.

He hung up and headed to a nearby department store.

He picked out a box of chocolates, then changed his mind and got another box.

He figured that Yesseca would probably enjoy them as well.

After paying for the chocolates, Tremaine headed back to Yesseca's apartment.

After parking, he opened up one of the boxes.

There were several pieces of chocolate inside, in all kinds of cute and pretty shapes.

They all looked the same to Tremaine, however.

It was just chocolate. Why did they have to make them in so many different shapes?

Tremaine stuffed one into his mouth.

It was so sweet that he almost spat it back out.

He had never eaten something so sweet in his life!

However, he forced himself to swallow it.

This was supposed to make him feel happier so that he would not be so easily provoked by Yesseca's words and end up getting into another argument.

In the blink of an eye, Tremaine had made his way through the whole box of chocolates.

He felt like his throat was coated in pure sugar.

He felt that there was no chance of him getting into a fight with Yesseca this time.

Tremaine got out of his car and went upstairs.

When he reached the door to Yesseca's apartment, he suddenly thought of something else.

Yesseca already had a boyfriend, and he wanted to get her back.

And he wanted to get Yesseca back.

Was it possible that something had already happened between her and that man, though?

He narrowed his eyes.

After a while, he relaxed again.

It was not likely.

Although he did not have any conclusive evidence to prove this, he had a hunch that she and her so-called boyfriend had not gotten that far yet. Nothing had happened between them yet!

Tremaine knocked on her door.

Yesseca was getting ready for bed.

She had just finished talking to Kyi in over the phone.

They talked to each other before going to bed like lovers did.

After she hung up the phone, Yesseca breathed out a sigh of relief.

Because just before she ended the call, she said, "Kylin, I'll miss you."

She learned this line from watching one of her television dramas.

She figured that since she was Kyi in's girlfriend, she had to be more affectionate towards him, like every other girlfriend.

She was just thinking about her plans for the next day when she heard someone knocking on her door.

This startled her.

Having faced this multiple times before, she knew who it was.

Only one person would come knocking on her door at this hour.

It had to be Tremaine.

Yesseca suddenly found it hard to breathe.

She covered her ears.

She wanted to act like she had not heard him knocking in hopes that he would leave after a while.

Even after a long while, however, she could still hear him knocking. The sound of him knocking reverberated in her ears and heart.

She could not stand it anymore.

She hurried over to the door but did not open it.

She peered through the peephole and saw Tremaine outside.

She raised her voice and said, "Tremaine, I know it's you. I won't open the door, so you should just leave."

Yesseca's apartment was located in

an old, inexpensive area, and the

soundproofing was almost

negligible. Tremaine heard her loud and clear through the door

When Tremaine noticed that

Yesseca refused to open the door despite him knocking for so long, his

first instinct was to get mad

he

restrained himself.

He had to be gentle and patient with her!

He had to be patient with women!

He said, "Yesseca, I have something to tell you. Open the door."

"No, I won't."

"Please, open the door."

"I'm not doing that."

"Yesseca, you..." He was just about to yell at her, but then caught himself and calmed himself down.

So what if she refused to open the door? He would find a way!

No matter!

He would find a way!

Fifteen minutes later, the locksmith that Tremaine called arrived and very easily got the door open. He then strode into her apartment.

Yesseca was speechless.

She never thought that Tremaine would go so far as to get a locksmith to open her door!

She widened her eyes. "You! This is breaking and entering! I'm calling the police!"

Tremaine looked at her leisurely.

Yesseca wanted to call the police? By all means.

Yesseca was about to take out her phone when she suddenly realized something.

Calling the police probably would not help in any way.

Tremaine was the personal bodyguard to the president of Nashaland, after all.

Nashaland was one of the most

powerful countries in the world, so

the police might not even do

anything as they would not want to offend someone working for the president of Nashaland!

Yesseca took a deep breath. "Tremaine, what are you doing here so late?"

Tremaine handed her the box of chocolates and said, "This is for you."

She looked at the box of chocolates in his hand.

She felt a tug in her heart.

He had come all this way to give her this.

Yesseca clenched her fists.

She could not accept his chocolates.

She already had a boyfriend.

She rejected him. "Tremaine, take the chocolates and leave. I don't want them, because I already have a boyfriend."

It was already too late for anything to happen with

them.

If he had given her chocolates and told her that he had feelings for her while she still had a crush on him, she would have been ecstatic.

That was out of the question at this point of time, though.

She was Kylin's girlfriend.

He had missed his chance.

When Tremaine heard her remind him that she already had a boyfriend, he began to get upset again.

He recalled her kissing another man the other day.

He was just about to lose his temper again, but then he saw the box of chocolates in his hand.

He managed to control his temper once again.

Though it seemed that eating these things did not seem to help much, he did not want his effort in forcing them down to go to waste. He could not get

mad.

Tremaine gazed at Yesseca and said in his deep voice, "It doesn't matter whether or not you have a boyfriend. Yesseca, you're destined to be mine." His words caused her heart to skip a beat.
