My Heart only Beats for You

"Miss Fernandez, where do you plan on sleeping tonight?" Sheldon asked.

Preslie was quiet.

She opened her eyes wide and stammered, "Mr. Hawls, shouldn't | be sleeping on a bed?"

Oh yes, right, a bed.

Sheldon was speechless.

Why did he ask such a silly question?

Sheldon decided to open up a vacant guestroom for Preslie to sleep in it. However, as soon as he opened the

door, he realized that the room was very dirty and messy. He opened the door to another empty guestroom

which was just as dirty. Sheldon felt embarrassed.

He quickly said, "Miss Fernandez, I'll help you clean up."

"I shouldn't trouble him with this," Preslie thought to herself.

She quickly replied, "No Mr. Hawls, | shouldn't trouble you with this. You should go to bed. I'll clean this up

myself."

Sheldon forced out a smile and said, "Good joke, but no. It's very dirty."

"I'm serious. You're a bachelor after all, and well, this is what a bachelors hoften looks like." Preslie said.

Truth was, there was something she was too embarrassed to say.

Her own room was dirty, it didn't look very different from Sheldon's.

Sheldon looked at Preslie and didn't say anything.

Preslie said, "Mr. Hawls, please get srest. It's already so late. | didn't mean to be a bother to you."

Sheldon didn't leave right away.

He stood at the door and was about to say something.

But then, his mind went blank.

Why was Sheldon standing at the door?

A man and a woman, all alone in the middle of the night. This was a situation that would very easily lead to a

serious misunderstanding.

Was Sheldon preparing to do something to her?

She wasn't that worried about this. She guessed that Sheldon didn't have those kinds of thoughts about her after

all.

As Preslie took guesses as to why he was still here, Sheldon finally opened his mouth and asked, "Miss

Fernandez, | actually meant to ask..." After a brief pause, Sheldon continued, "How did you blow up the house?"

Preslie was quiet.

She suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.

Sheldon was standing there because he had wanted to ask her this question. The incident was still fresh in his

mind.

She scratched her head. "I... | was stupid."

Sheldon shook his head and sighed before returning to his bedroom.

She was so stupid that she blew up her own house.

Tremaine was tossing and turning around on his bed.

After leaving Yesseca's bedroom, he felt terribly oppressed.

He had to relieve his pent up urge!

After thinking for stime, Tremaine returned to Yesseca's bedroom.

Yesseca had already turned off the lights in her room.

But she was still awake.

When she heard her bedroom doors swing open, Yesseca immediately closed her eyes.

She knew it was Tremaine.

His footsteps stopped in front of her bed.

Yesseca's eyelashes trembled slightly.

She thought to herself, "What is Tremaine doing in my room at midnight?"

Could it be that he still refused to change his mind and had now wanted to take her...

Yesseca decided that if Tremaine were to do anything to her, she would kick him in his groin and stop him from

doing anything to her. Yesseca suddenly felt a numb feeling on her face.

It felt like a feather was gently brushing against her face. It was strangely comfortable.

Yesseca held her breath.

Was Tremaine kissing her?

It must be a very gentle kiss, otherwise it wouldn't feel so soft and gentle on her cheek.

A short while later, Tremaine stood back up.

He was staring at Yesseca's face.

A smile appeared on his face.

"Well, I've finally calmed down my urges."

"Let's see if this stupid goose will annoyagain next time!"

Tremaine turned around and left her bedroom.

Hearing him walk away, Yesseca opened her eyes.

Her eyes shone brightly.

Tremaine had entered her bedroom not because he wanted to do something to her. He cto kiss her secretly.

And he must have been afraid of waking her up, that's why he kissed her so gently...

Yesseca felt extremely guilty right then.

She felt that she had been too harsh with him tonight. She shouldn't have spoken to him like that.

Her guilt kept growing and growing.

She felt so bad that she wanted to get out of her bed and apologize to Tremaine.

But she didn't.

She decided to be nice to him

tomorrow. If Tremaine wanted to do

with her, she woulddet

him. She would never speak so

harshly to him again.

Tremaine loved her so much that he had snuck into her room to kiss her in the middle of the night. She shouldn't

be so mean to him.

She passed the night with the guilt in her heart.

The very next day, Yesseca woke up early.

She went to the washroom to wash herself up.

Yesseca was stunned when she saw herself in the mirror.

She rubbed her eyes, afraid that she had seen something that wasn't there.

However, after rubbing her eyes, it was very obvious.

Yesseca saw three large words written on her face.

Silly headed goose.

There was also a doodle of a goose drawn on her right cheek.

Yesseca was quiet.

"Tremaine!!!" The entire washroom shook from how loud Yesseca screamed. "You bastard!"

Tremaine sneezed.

Navidia looked at Tremaine with concern. "Mr.

Quartley, do you have a cold?"

Tremaine waved his hand at her, "No."

They then continued their climb up the mountain.

Tremaine and Navidia were accompanied by

Hogan and a few other attendants.

The mountain they were climbing today was called Mt. Eternal. It was the highest mountain range in Nashaland.

Plenty of tourists would climb up this mountain when they visited Nashaland.

Ten minutes later, they arrived at the top of the mountain

Navidia stood at the peak of the mountain. She could see all of Nashaland. It was a spectacular sight.

She couldn't help but say, "Nashaland is so beautiful."

Tremaine didn't say anything.

Navidia glanced at him and said, "Mr. Quartley, I'd love to stay in such a beautiful country like this forever."

Tremaine understood what Navidia meant by that, but still kept quiet.

Hogan however, immediately stepped forward and said, "Princess Navidia, our president also hopes that you'd

continue to stay here." Hearing this, Navidia's eyes glimmered brightly.

Tremaine then opened his mouth,

"Mr. Welmert feels very strongly about that, more than | do. After all, he values you very much." After pausing for

a moment, Tremaine looked at Hogan intently, "Mr. Welmert was just wondering what your ladyship meant by

that, | suppose?"

When Hogan heard this, he assumed that Tremaine was just messing around.

But he couldn't say anything about it in front of Navidia, so he simply smiled awkwardly.

Navidia was baffled.

She looked at Tremaine and said, "Mr. Quartley, I'm not sure | understand what you mean by that."

Tremaine replied lightly, "You don't need to understand, Princess Navidia. Come, let's head down the mountain."

Navidia felt somewhat reluctant.

She looked down and spotted a village at the foot of the mountain.

She asked, "Is that a village at the foot of the mountain?"

Hogan explained: "Yes, Princess Navidia. This is where the borders between Nashaland and Megeland meet. «

Below is a village where svillagers live."
