Chapter 1974
Preslie looked at her and said anxiously, "Yesseca, hurry up. The ceremony has started!"
Someone should have come to collect Yesseca to lead her to the aisle by now. If they had, she would have been married by now.
But because of the sudden emergency that was going on in the hotel, no one came for her. Preslie didn't know what had happened and was going to bring her herself.
Yesseca still wasn't moving.
Everything Qiana said was still echoing in her mind.
Preslie stamped her feet and said, "Yesseca, you aren't actually listening to this woman's nonsense, are you? I'm telling you, she's just a fanatic. She doesn't want you to marry Tremaine, because she wants to marry him herself. Don't listen to her nonsense!"
She then tugged at Yesseca again, "Yesseca, hurry up!"
Preslie put in much more effort this time. Yesseca nearly fell down when Preslie pulled her. Luckily, she managed to stabilize her body in time. Yesseca's eyelashes trembled. "Preslie, she's... she's Montez's birth mother."
Preslie was quiet.
Her eyes widened in shock.
Sheldon rushed into the room.
He didn't notice how quiet and strange Yesseca was right now.
Sheldon walked over to Yesseca and whispered, "Miss Cowell, the wedding is delayed. I'll be taking you back for now."
In order to prevent Yesseca from panicking, he had purposefully omitted the fact that Tremaine was missing.
Yesseca's eyelashes trembled harder.
Was this the reason their wedding was being delayed?
Was it because of Qiana?
Now that Tremaine had learned that Qiana was Montez's birth mother, he must be hesitating. He didn't want to marry her anymore.
She bit her lip and nodded.
She then came back to her senses and looked around.
Noticing that Sheldon was going to take her away, she panicked and asked, "Why are you taking me away now? We haven't gotten married yet!" Even though the woman in her dressing room was Montez's birth mother, they still had a wedding to complete.
Sheldon looked at Preslie.
He looked at her to signal her to keep quiet.
Preslie felt her heart jump.
She had never seen Sheldon so anxious and stern before.
Preslie had a gut feeling.
It seemed that something had happened.
She shut her mouth right away.
Later, Sheldon took Yesseca to the car and ordered the driver to send her back to the Quartley Palace. Preslie didn't get into the car with her. She wanted to ask Sheldon about what had happened.
As the car drove away, she yelled out, "Mr. Hawls, what has happened?!"
But he didn't answer her.
Preslie said anxiously, "Is it because of that woman? Although she is Montez's birth mother, since Tremaine wants to marry Yesseca, that means he has no feelings for that woman! Come on, get rid of her so that Yesseca and Tremaine can get married!"
Sheldon was slightly alarmed to hear this.
He asked, "What woman? Montez's birth mother?"
Preslie was quiet.
Sheldon had no idea about this?
Preslie was about to say something when a group of soldiers approached him. They were being led by a man in military uniform.
The man looked to be about 40 years old and his muscles looked very powerful.
Sheldon was just about to greet them when the soldiers stepped forward and handcuffed him.
Sheldon was shocked.
Normally Sheldon was a very skilled man, it was basically impossible for anyone to apprehend him easily. It was because he was acquainted with the people who had arrived, that was why he was caught off guard. He had been arrested so easily!
Sheldon then realized what had happened to him.
He said sternly, "Reuben! What are you doing?!"
The person who handcuffed Sheldon had come from the same training academy that he had attended. They had always been good friends, which was why Sheldon had lowered his guard.
Looking at Sheldon's blank expression, Captain Reuben, who was smiling, said coldly, "Sheldon, you are under suspicion of colluding with the rebels. I am now formally arresting you in accordance with the laws of Nashaland!"
Sheldon's pupils dilated.
Just as he was about to say something, Reuben gagged his mouth. "If there is anything you want to say to defend yourself, say it in court!"
At the Quartley Palace.
Yesseca was sitting on her bed in a daze.
Everything Montez and Qiana had said was still buzzing around in her mind.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
It felt like there were two tiny people on her shoulders, screaming into her ears.
One of them was Qiana, and the other was Montez. They were talking nonstop into Yesseca's ears, causing her eardrums to buzz.
A servant then rushed in, saying that Preslie was looking for Yesseca.
Yesseca held her breath.
She then said, "Let her in."
Preslie came running in.
She ran in very quickly.
She cried when she saw Yesseca. She said, "Yesseca, please save him! Plesae save Mr. Hawls!"
Yesseca was shocked.
She looked very confused. "Preslie, what's wrong with Sheldon?"
Preslie's eyes were red. "Mr. Hawls was arrested! They claimed that he was colluding with the rebels and are taking him to a military tribunal."
Yesseca was even more shocked.
Sheldon? Colluding with the rebels?
How... how was this possible?
She had spent a lot of time with Sheldon. She could see that Sheldon was a very righteous man and was very loyal to Tremaine. How could such a man collude with rebels?"
Yesseca quickly said, "Preslie, this must have been a misunderstanding."
Preslie said, "Qh Yesseca, there
must have been a
misunderstanding. I know Mr.
Hawls, he would never collude with
rebels. But they are claiming he has! We have to tell the president about this, he'll know what to do. He'll find out the truth behind this matter and save Mr. Hawls!"
Yesseca bit her lip.
She hadn't contacted Tremaine since she had been taken away from the hotel.
Ending the wedding must have been Tremaine's doing after all.
She couldn't go looking for him now.
She was waiting for him to give her an explanation as well.
But now...
Yesseca let out a long sigh.
Forget it, for Sheldon's sake, she would have to contact him right away.
Yesseca took out her phone and dialed Tremaine's number, but his phone had been switched off.
Yesseca had no idea what to do.
Apart from contacting Tremaine, she had no idea who else to call.
Tremaine's cell phone was switched off. She started to panic even more now.
Preslie asked, "Yesseca, what should we do now?"
Yesseca thought about it for a moment then proceeded to comfort her. "Don't worry Preslie. Tremaine's cell phone is turned off right now, but he'll be back eventually. Besides, Sheldon isn't an ordinary man. Even though he's been convicted, he will be judged in court. That will take some time. We'll wait patiently for Tremaine to return for now."
This was all they could do for now.
