Chapter 1772
He was, of course, telling the truth.
He really did find Preslie pretty adorable.
Preslie dim eyes suddenly lit up again. "Really?"
Montez nodded. "You look like a cartoon character. You're adorable."
He smiled and squinted his eyes.
He said she was adorable!
He loved sweet cherries.
Preslie said happily, "You're such a sweet talker."
She then leaned down and kissed Montez on the cheek.
Montez was caught by surprise.
He quickly used his sleeve to wipe his cheek.
He regretted calling her adorable!
Aside from Yesseca, no other woman was allowed to kiss him!
Montez reprimanded Preslie, saying, "You're not allowed to kiss me. Only Yesseca can kiss me on the face, and no one else has the right to!"
Preslie was lost for words.
She couldn't help being amused by him.
Something occurred to her.
Preslie said to Yesseca, "Yesseca, he's so goodlooking and charming. You should make him a flower boy at your wedding."
Montez's eyes widened. "What did you just say?!"
"You can be Yesseca's flower boy. She's getting married at the end of this month," Preslie said with a smile.
Montez's mind went blank.
Yesseca was getting married!
How could this be?
Didn't she say that she would wait for him to grow up?!
Wasn't she going to marry him once he was all grown up?!
She was getting married at this time?!
Montez stared at Yesseca. "Yesseca, you're getting married?!"
Yesseca noticed how odd Montez looked, but she didn't think much about it. She squatted down and said gently, "That's right, Montez, I'm getting married. There's no need for you to be a flower boy, though. You have your own life to live."
Preslie didn't know that Montez was Tremaine's son, but she did. There was no way she would ask Tremaine's son to be the flower boy at her wedding.
Montez felt like a bomb had exploded in his mind. It hurt.
For a moment, he felt a rush of anger.
His Yesseca was getting married!
She was going to marry another man!
This was too much!
Yesseca was his!
Montez glared at Yesseca. "Yesseca, you're liar!"
After that, Montez turned around and ran away.
Tears rolled down his cheeks as he ran off.
Yesseca had promised to wait for him and marry him, but here she was, getting ready to marry some other man!
"What..." Preslie was stunned.
What was going on?!
She didn't understand.
Yesseca didn't understand either.
She still chased after him immediately.
"Montez, Montez, stop!" Yesseca called out after him.
Montez ignored her.
Instead, he picked up the pace.From NôvelDrama.Org.
Yesseca chased after him all the way to the entrance of the mall. She caught him before he managed to get into the car, her chest heaving as she tried to catch her breath. "Montez, what's wrong? Why'd you just run off like that?"
She didn't understand why Montez was so angry.
Montez eyes had turned red. "Yesseca, why are you getting married?"
She replied, "Everyone has to get married someday, and so will you, Montez. You'll get married when you're old enough."
"But... but..." Montez's face turned red, but he still shouted, "You're supposed to marry me! You said you'd wait for me to grow up and marry you!" Yesseca was speechless.
She knew she shouldn't laugh when Montez was so angry and upset, but she couldn't help it.
But she couldn't help it.
Yesseca burst out in laughter.
Montez became even angrier at her
laughter. "Why are you laughing?
Yesseca, how can you be so callous about our relationship? Not only you being callous about our
el
relationship, but you're also marrying some other man! I'm going to die of frustration!"
Yesseca tried her best to rein in her laughter but to no avail. She could only try her best to suppress her smile as she rubbed Montez's head. "Montez, you're..." She couldn't find the right words to say.
She could only say, "Montez, you're
still a child. You're like a younger brother to me, so how can we get
married? We're not even from the et
same generation. In fact, I'm old enough to be your mother. By the time you grow up, I'll be old enough that my son would probably have a child of his own."
Montez's eyes grew even redder.
It wasn't until this day that he realised something.
It turned out that all of this was just a figment of his imagination.
Yesseca had never been interested in him at all!
He was such a fool!
Montez pushed Yesseca away forcefully. "Yesseca, I'm really angry. I'm so angry I could explode!"
After that, Montez got into the car and slammed the door shut.
Yesseca was just about to pull the door open when the car sped off.
Yesseca was taken aback.
She dialed Montez's number.
He rejected her call.
She called again.
He rejected her again.
She tried another time.
He continued to reject her.
It was followed by a text message, though. "Yesseca, stop calling me. I'm really, really angry.
I'm also really, really sad. So sad I could die."
Yesseca read the message speechlessly.
She felt both helpless and amused by his childish message.
She replied to his text message.
"Montez, don't be angry. I'll treat you to some hamburgers next time."
He didn't reply to her message.
Yesseca turned around and headed back into the mall.
She didn't think much about Montez's words nor how weirdly he'd acted.
To her, he was just acting like the child that he was.
Montez probably saw her as a really close friend.
Children could be very possessive when it came to their friends.
Now that she was about to get married, Montez probably felt like his good friend was being taken away from him, which was why he'd gotten so mad. All that talk about marrying her when he was older was nothing more than a joke as well.
Yesseca returned to her shop.
Preslie's lips twitched when she saw Yesseca. "Yesseca, I didn't know you were into younger men with sister complexes."
Yesseca knew that Preslie was teasing her.
She glared at Preslie. "Stop that. I'm old enough to be Montez's mother."
Preslie continued teasing her. "Well, I suppose he has a mother complex, then.
Yesseca looked at her wordlessly.
Preslie only stopped Yesseca when she pretended to hit her.
She said seriously, "That child must really care about you, otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten so mad over you getting married. He must think of you
as one of his closest people, and now you're being taken away from him."
It was the same as what Yesseca had thought.
She sighed. "I'll comfort him when I have the time."
Preslie said, "Why don't you give his mother a call so that she can comfort him?"
