Chapter 1739
Sheldon breathed out a huge sigh of relief.
Thank goodness Tremaine was attracted to women.
Everyone had desires. If a man wasn't interested in women, then that meant they were interested in men. If Tremaine wasn't interested in women, then he must be interested in men and that would put him in danger!
Tremaine felt that something was wrong.
Why was he discussing such things with Sheldon?
Tremaine then said coldly. "Sheldon, why am I even telling you all of this?!"
Sheldon was quiet.
He was rendered speechless.
Well, Tremaine was the one who called him in and asked him about women in the first place. Next thing they knew, they were talking about this! "Get out," Tremaine ordered.
"Yes, Mr. President!" Sheldon saluted briskly and turned around to leave the room.
But then Tremaine stopped him.
Tremaine then asked him about the spy. "Have you found the spy yet?"
Sheldon hung his head. "Not yet, sir."
After a brief pause, Sheldon continued, "Sir, why don't we put a stop to this investigation? It's been a very long time since we've begun the search. There might not have been a spy all along."
Tremaine sneered.
He stressed every word, "Keep searching."
Sheldon's eyes flashed with a strange light.
He responded, "Yes, Mr. President."
Five days passed in a blink of an eye.
Several things happened during those five days.
The first was that Kyi in had gone to the United States.
A relative from his mother's family was getting married. Kylin had flown over to attend the wedding.
During those five days, Yesseca received a delivery every single day.
They were large bouquets of roses.
They were delivered promptly to her workplace every time, each bouquet was prepared with delicate red roses and sprinkled with sprakly dewdrops. Yesseca had no idea who was sending them to
her.
But if she had to guess, it would be...
Kylin.
Aside from Kylin, no one else would send her roses.
Yesseca also visited the Perry family homd several times in those five days.
The dust had settled between her and Selina and their relationship had gone back to normal.
After clearing things up, there weren't any more misunderstandings between them.
However, there was still something that Selina hadn't told Yesseca yet.
That Lothar and Reid only knew each other because Reid had bribed Lothar.
She hoped to preserve Yesseca's impression of Lothar as her perfect brother.
Selina and Yesseca went to visit Lothar's grave.
Yesseca looked at Lothar's picture on the gravestone and said, "Brother, I know everything that's happened now. I understand why you did those things. From now on, I will treat Selina as though she's a part of our family. I no longer have any doubts or worries."
After Yesseca was done talking, Selina said, "Lothar, I'll make a promise to you. Regardless of things in the past, present, or future, Yesseca is my sister. When you left, I promised you that I would take care of her. Now I will continue that promise I made to you. So long as I am alive, I will take care of Yesseca in your stead."
There was a silence.
After she said that, Selina and Yesseca looked at each other and smiled.
When they left together, they held each other's hands tightly.
Yesseca muttered, "Selina, I think my brother is very happy up in heaven to see us like this."
Selina looked up into the sky.
The sky was clear and blue.
Selina smiled warmly. "You're right. He's definitely happy."
"Selina, let's always be like this from now on. Well always be happy together." Yesseca looked earnestly at Selina.
Selina nodded and answered cheerfully, "Of course. Things will be good from now on!"Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
On the sixth day, Tremaine came to see Yesseca.
He had sent her roses everyday for the past five days.
Sending a woman roses was one of the things men would do to court their women.
He wanted to see if Yesseca was moved by his generosity.
While Tremaine was out looking for Yesseca, something happened at the Quartley Palace.
Zorion had suddenly fallen ill.
He was seriously ill this time.
Ever since he moved to Quartley Palace, Zorion had vomited several times. At first, they'd thought it was just him not being used to the weather and from all the travelling he went through.
The doctor said that he had been infected with a dangerous virus and had to be quarantined. He was not to be in close contact with anyone.
The mortality rate was very high among those who had been infected, and the doctor couldn't guarantee if they could save Zorion. Because of this sudden news, Tremaine turned around and went back despite already travelling halfway towards Agaphen city. He drove his car at full speed the entire way home.
When he arrived at the Quartley Palace, Madam Quartley ran at him, imploring him to send for more doctors with tears streaming down her
cheeks.
She said through her sobbing, "The doctor said that Zorion was infected with the WT.virus and that he might not survive. Tremaine, you must find a better doctor. The ones who have seen him must be incompetent. Zorion has always been healthy. There must be a way to save him!"
Tremaine immediately went to speak to the doctor.
The doctor said that Zorion had been infected with the WT virus. When it was first discovered, the virus was rapidly circulating around the world, but then disappeared suddenly. It had since reappeared recently.
Zorion had to be brought to a hospital in Nashaland immediately to be safely quarantined. The doctor was not optimistic about his survival and couldn't guarantee anything.
Tremaine immediately called Sheldon.
He ordered Sheldon to bring the most experienced doctor in the entire world to help.
The following day, Sheldon brought the doctor over.
The doctor examined Zorion and gave them the same diagnosis as the previous doctor. However, this doctor said that there was a higher chance for Zorion to survive.
The entire Quartley family breathed a sigh of relief.
So long as there was a big enough of a chance, that meant there was hope!
Although the virus was highly contagious, the doctor still suggested that they send someone who was close to Zorion to take care of him while he was in quarantine.
Naturally the first person they thought of was Yuliana.
She was his wife after all.
Yuliana's face fell when she heard that they wanted her to take care of Zorion.
Zorion was currently infected with
the WT virus, which was very
contagious, Currently there was no known medicine to cure people with, which means that taking care of Zorion would definitely get her infected as well!
How dare they even ask her to take on such a risk!
She quickly reasoned, "Madam Quartley, its not that I don't want to
take care of Zorion, it's just that my body is already very weak as it is won't be able to properly take care of him if I am sick as well. In fact, when he gets better, and if were to remain ill and die, Zorion himself might die from a broken heart."
Madam Quartley believed her and found this
sensible.
Although the doctor had suggested for someone who was close to Zorion to take care of him, this was a very dangerous and infectious virus. It was
very risky, of course Yuliana was reluctant to do it.
Although Madam Quartley loved her grandson, she didn't want her granddaughter-in-law to face such dangerous risks.
She then asked, "You're right, it's better if you don't go in case you get infected."
