My Heart only Beats for You

Yesseca's mind was a mess.

She'd never expected Tremaine would catch the WT virus.

He always looked so fit and healthy, it wasn't possible for him to catch the virus.

"Yesseca? Yesseca? Why aren't you saying anything?" Montez shouted over the phone.

Yesseca then snapped back to reality.

She responded, sounding confused, "Givea moment. I'll call you later." Yesseca quickly hung up the phone.

She wondered if she had misheard.

Or maybe she remembered it wrong.

Maybe the WT virus wasn't as deadly as she remembered, maybe it was more like the common flu.

She had to find out.

Just as Yesseca was about to search for information on her smartphone, Preslie showed up.

She had brought a bag of fruits for Yesseca.

"Yesseca, have sfruits. These are really tasty," Preslie said with a smile.

Yesseca looked at her with her face growing pale. "Preslie, do you know anything about the WT virus?" Preslie suddenly looked serious. "I do. It kills people. An elderly lady in my neighborhood got infected with the virus. It was very well known around the world a few years ago but then suddenly disappeared. I heard that it recently resurfaced. Many people have been infected with it. It's been reported than there are more than a dozen deaths in Agaphen city alone." Upon hearing this, Yesseca's heart sank.

It seemed that she had remembered correctly.

It was a deadly virus that could cause death.

Yesseca's began breathing rapidly.

Oh no. She had to see Tremaine.

She didn't understand why she had to see Tremaine the very moment she heard that he had been infected with the WT virus. She didn't have tto think about it either. All she knew was that she had to see Tremaine right away.

Yesseca immediately said, "Please request for stoff for me. I have to leave right now." After saying that, Yesseca ran off in a hurry.

Preslie was speechless.

Yesseca ran out of the mall and called Montez. She told him that she was coming to Nashaland.

Montez was elated to hear that. He was so happy he felt like he was flying in the sky.

He thought that Yesseca was coming to Nashaland to see him.

Montez immediately said, "Yesseca, I'll get the car to pick you up. You wait at home. I'll get the car to pick you up." Yesseca agreed immediately.

If she wanted to travel to Nashaland, she'd have to wait for the bus. Since Montez would get his family's driver to pick her up, it would be much faster.

Yesseca had gone home.

She then waited.

She was very uncomfortable having to wait. She paced around her room.

Her mind was in an absolute mess.

How was it possible for Tremaine to have caught the WT virus? All sorts of things were running in her mind.

The virus was life-threatening! Tremaine was going to die! When she thought about this, she felt as though her heart was being strangled by two large hands. She found it hard to breathe.

She spent the next two hours feeling this way.

Soon, Montez called her again.

The car that he had called to pick her up was waiting outside her apartment building.

Yesseca immediately ran downstairs.

She spotted a military jeep.

It had the Nashaland emblem on it.

Yesseca was stunned.

What was a military jeep doing here? But then she realized that Tremaine was the personal bodyguard of the President of Nashaland. He must have sconnections with their military. It wasn't surprising for him to have sent a military jeep over. Yesseca immediately got into the jeep.

It sped all the way to Nashaland.

Most people would have to sail from Agaphen City to Nashaland by ship, but military vehicles could directly cross the border, so this saved a lot of time.

In a blink of an eye, they had arrived in Nashaland.

The military jeep brought Yesseca to a white palace-like building.

It was wide and solid but also looked elegant and imposing.

Yesseca got off the jeep and noticed several heavily armed men guarding the entrance.

She then spotted Montez.

No one knew where Montez had cfrom. He threw himself into Yesseca's arms. "Yesseca, you cto see me! I'm so happy." Yesseca didn't have tto talk to Montez.

She asked him, "Montez, which hospital is your daddy in? I need to see your daddy." Montez was stunned.

Why was Yesseca asking about his daddy the moment she arrived? And her face...

Her face was pale.

Montez's heart was pounding hard.

Although he was young, he was very smart. He could tell that something was off.

Was the WT virus just like the common flu or was it a very serious illness? Why else was Yesseca so worried that she immediately asked to see his father the moment she arrived? Montez stared at Yesseca, "Yesseca, is the WT virus like the flu or is it deadly? Is my daddy in danger?" Yesseca figured it was best not to tell Montez the truth.

She didn't want him to worry.

But she wasn't a very good liar, and Montez was very smart.

She then decided to just tell him the truth.

Montez's face turned pale.

Although he had always called his father a grumpy monster and a big bad man, when he heard that his father was in danger, his life flashed before his eyes.

"I'll ask the butler. I'll ask the butler which hospital my daddy is in," Montez said as he rushed off.

He then ran into the majestic building.

Yesseca had wanted to follow him, but was quickly stopped by a guard who was dressed in a military uniform with a spear in his hand. Yesseca had no choice but to wait outside anxiously.

The butler was startled.

Montez had suddenly rushed in looking very pale and asked him which hospital his father was in.

The butler didn't want to tell him.

Montez then grabbed his arm and said, "Tell me! Please tell me!" Montez cried as he screamed at the butler.

The butler gave in and told him.

Montez then rushed back outside.

The butler watched him run off in silence.

He was still shaken from how hysteric Montez was.

The butler thought to himself, "Well, Montez and Zorion are very close. Montez must be hysteric to learn that his uncle had been infected with a deadly disease." The military jeep rushed Yesseca and Montez to the hospital.

Montez was crying the entire way there.

He grabbed Yesseca's hand. "Yesseca, tell me, is my dad going to die? I'm so scared, I'm so very scared." Yesseca's heart was in pain seeing how upset Montez was.

She didn't know either.

She only knew that this virus had a very high mortality rate.

Seeing that Yesseca wasn't responding, Montez grew even more upset.

He cried out, "That grumpy monster was going to live for a hundred years. There was no way he was going to die. My daddy, the grumpy monster can't die from this." Yesseca's heart hurt so badly to see Montez cry so badly.

She held Montez and comforted him. "Montez, nothing's going to happen to your daddy. That grumpy monster will live for a thousand years. Your daddy will be ok." Montez stared at Yesseca with tears in his large eyes. Yesseca was silent.

She wanted to give herself a slap in the face.
