My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Chapter 2013



Preslie said immediately, "I'll go to Mr. Tremaine right now."

Preslie knocked on the door of Tremaine's office.

There was no reply.

She knocked on the door a few more times.

Still, she got no reply.

She mustered up her courage and pushed the door open slightly.

She saw Tremaine working behind his large desk.

"Mr. Tremaine," Preslie said faintly.

There was no response from the man.

Tremaine was still working with his head lowered.

"Mr. Tremaine!" Preslie raised her volume.

This time, Tremaine finally responded.

He looked up to see Preslie's cautious face.

Tremaine's expression darkened immediately.

Because Preslie hadn't gotten his permission before entering.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

It was also because she was Yesseca's good friend.

He knew he shouldn't base his attitude on his feelings.

However, Tremaine wasn't too comfortable to see Preslie.

Seeing Preslie had reminded him of Yesseca again.

Preslie was Yesseca's friend. Her good friend.

Yesseca was a heartless woman, so how could Preslie be any better than her?

A hint of coldness appeared in Tremaine's eyes.

He decided to kick Preslie out of the President's Office.

This woman could no longer work here.

Preslie also noticed the rage on Tremaine's face.

But she still plucked up her courage and said, "Mr. Tremaine, forgive me for being rude. I did that for a reason! I came here to plead for Mr. Hawls!" Tremaine was surprised.

Preslie said, "Mr. Hawls was locked up previously with the reason of being a traitor to Nashaland. Sir, Mr. Hawls is not that type of person. He's worked all his life to serve this country and the people, and he's so loyal to you. How would he ever do that?"

It was as if Preslie was trying to prove her words as she continued, "Mr. Tremaine, I've been staying with Mr. Hawls for so long, and I know his character. He's a man who would give his life for Nashaland. Such a man would never betray Nashaland. This must be a misunderstanding!" Tremaine stared right at Preslie, "Are you pleading for mercy for Sheldon?"

Preslie immediately said, "Mr. Tremaine, I am pleading for mercy for Mr. Hawls. But I am pleading because what I am saying is a fact. If Mr. Hawls had really betrayed Nashaland, I would even chop my head off!"

Preslie had the confidence to say so because Sheldon was not that type of person!

"Mr. Tremaine, please send the military to reinvestigate Mr. Hawls case to prove him innocent!" Preslie increased her volume.

The coldness in Tremaine's eyes gradually dissipated.

He had already sensed before that Sheldon and Preslie had an ambiguous relationship.

But after all, it was his subordinates' private matter. Furthermore, he'd never had a good feeling about Preslie, which was why he'd just ignored it. Tremaine hadn't expected that Preslie would come to plead for Sheldon.

Tremaine suddenly lowered his voice. "Preslie, I will reinvestigate the case now. If Sheldon really betrayed Nashaland, are you willing to chop your head off then? Are you willing to vouch for Sheldon with your life?"

"I am willing to!" Preslie said without any hesitation.

Her voice was loud and clear.

Tremaine's gaze wavered.

Just moments ago, he had almost decided he should kick Preslie out.

But now, it seemed that there was no need for him to do so.

Although Preslie was Yesseca's good friend, they weren't the same type of people.

When something happened to him, Yesseca had turned a blind eye to it and even turned straight to other methods of support.

But Preslie didn't care even if Tremaine was mad, and she would even give up her life as a guarantee for Sheldon.

The differences between the two women were obvious.

Tremaine sounded a little tired. "You can leave now. I'll reinvestigate Sheldon's case."

Preslie was delighted upon hearing that.

She immediately expressed her gratitude to Tremaine.

But it was obvious that Tremaine didn't like hearing those flattering words.

He glanced at Preslie coldly. "One more word, and I'll cut off your tongue."

Preslie immediately shut up.

Tremaine's eyes were like a sharp blade, and they could cut her tongue off.

She immediately said, "Mr. Tremaine, I'll leave now, then."

After that, she hurried out of the President's Office.

Because Tremaine had finally agreed to investigate the matter, Preslie was overjoyed.

But at the same time, she thought of one thing.

It was Yesseca's matter.

Preslie patted her head hard.

Oh no!

What was wrong with her?

She was so focused with Sheldon's matter that she'd totally forgotten about Yesseca!

In the President Office earlier, she should have talked to Tremaine about Yesseca.

Preslie then mustered her courage to go to the President Office again.

But Tremaine was no longer at the President's office.

Presliethen called Yesseca.

She told Yesseca that Tremaine had already returned.

If ther was a chance, she would talk to Tremaine about Yesseca's matters.

But when Yesseca heard that, her reaction was intense.

She said that if Preslie told Tremaine anything, she would no longer be friends with her anymore.

After Tremaine had dumped her, Yesseca felt that she had already lost all her pride.

If Preslie went to Tremaine again,

Yesseca thought that Tremaine might misunderstand and think she asked Preslie to do so. He would probably think that she still wanted a chance to get back together with him. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Yesseca absolutely wouldn't let Tremaine form such a conclusion.

It was the same as throwing her own pride away.

Hearing Yesseca's words, Preslie was stunned at once.

Yesseca had never said such harsh words to her before.

She said, "Yesseca, don't be angry. I won't bring it up again."

Preslie figured that Yesseca would rethink her decision after calming down a little, and that she would be able to bring up the matter again at a later time. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

In Nashaland's prison.

Tremaine met Sheldon.

He had gone from a dignified senior official to a prisoner, yet Sheldon didn't seem at all down nor weary.

He sat there, his prisoner's jumpsuit unable to conceal his perfect posture.

Tremaine stood behind Sheldon and said nothing.

His eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

Sheldon was his most trusted subordinate.

He was also his sworn brother.

Yet Sheldon had betrayed him, and he had been lying to him all that while.

Originally, Tremaine didn't want to meet Sheldon at all.

If it wasn't because Preslie came to him earlier, he wouldn't have come.

Sheldon also noticed the noise from behind him. He turned around and was shocked.

"Mr. Tremaine!" Sheldon immediately stood up and saluted Tremaine.

Tremaine sneered. "Sheldon, do you think that you have the right to salute me now?"

There was a flash of embarrassment on Sheldon's face.

He knew that he had no rights to.

Sheldon lowered his head, "Mr. Tremaine, it was all my fault. Even if you kill me, I will not have any complaints."

"Really?" Tremaine suddenly took

out a gun, pointing it right at Sheldon's forehead. "Sheldon, are

you sure that you would not have even a word of complaint? Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
