My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Chapter 1771



Although Montez was still in kindergarten, it was an elite one, so it was a step ahead of the average kindergarten.

For instance, Montez already had to sit for exams.

It was just like how primary school students had to sit for their final exams before the holidays.

Montez's results were excellent as always and he had managed to maintain his position as the top student in the kindergarten.

He went home excitedly with his honor certificate.

However, Madam Quartley didn't look too happy about it.

She was worried about Tremaine.

He was in a lot of danger. Though she'd heard of Tremaine's solution, she knew that these things weren't so easily resolved, thanks to her years of experience with Tremaine's grandfather.

Once upon a time, the Quartley family had fallen from grace because someone had gotten ahold of some dirt on them.

Madam Quartley merely let out a short laugh at Montez's honour certificate. "That's great, Montez."

Montez was bright, so he could tell that Madam Quartley wasn't really that happy. He immediately lost his gusto and walked away sadly.

She could see how disappointed he was, but she wasn't in the mood to comfort him.

She called Yuliana over.

Tremaine was almost never at home these days, and Zorion was mentally challenged. The only person she could talk to was Yuliana.

Madam Quartley knew that Yuliana was clueless about these things.

But she was feeling so anxious that she needed someone to talk to her.

Madam Quartley said, "Yuliana, why do you think Tremaine hasn't come home yet? It's been close to a month. Do you think the military court sent someone to arrest him? I've heard of a country's president being arrested and sentenced to death without any notice before. Do you think Tremaine's..."

Yuliana quickly cut her off. "Grandma, don't say such things. That president was sentenced to death because he was too incompetent. Tremaine isn't such a useless person, and the military court wouldn't dare to do something like that. After all, Nashaland isn't some weak nation. They wouldn't dare sentence a strong nation's president just like

that!"

Madam Quartley felt that Yuliana was making sense.

She let out a long sigh.

After chatting for a while more, Yuliana couldn't help saying, "Grandma, I really don't understand why Tremaine wanted to initiate that Plan X when there wasn't any need to. Even if Nashaland's military isn't as powerful as before, we can just give the oil resources to those nations that want it. There's no need to take such a huge risk."

Yuliana didn't pay much attention to these things, but it was hard to ignore when the news was everywhere. Madam Quartley had also told her some things.

In her opinion, Tremaine was putting himself at risk by initiating Plan X. Once news got out, as the president, he'd be the target of attack of several nations. Not only would he lose his position as the president, but he would also be punished by the military court.

Madam Quartley didn't appreciate Yuliana's opinion.

She glared at Yuliana. "You don't know what you're talking about. As the president, Tremaine can't just think of himself. He has to think of the whole country! If we were to give up our oil resources just because other nations wanted it, we'd be allowing them to exploit Nashaland's resources! You just don't get it."

Madam Quartley waved a hand at her.

Forget it. Why was she even talking to Yuliana about this?

It was fine to talk about other things with her, but Yuliana was completely clueless about these matters.

Montez decided to visit Yesseca with his honour certificate.

He went over to see Yesseca with his certificate.

It had been such a long time since he'd last seen Yesseca, and he really missed her.

Of course, he had another reason as well.

Montez felt that men had to maintain a heroic image in the eyes of their women.

"Yes!"

He was the top student in his kindergarten. That was the type of heroic image one wanted!

He had to tell Yesseca.

Despite them living in different

countries, he wanted Yesseca toet

remember him at all times. That way she would wait for him to grow up and marry her.

Montez wanted to surprise Yesseca.

He didn't tell Yesseca that he was coming and told his driver to send him to the mall she worked in.

He wanted to surprise her at her apartment at night, but he was afraid that Madam Quartley would notice he was missing if he didn't show up for dinner, so he snuck out during the day.

Yesseca was tidying up the shelves when she suddenly saw a handsome little boy walk into her store.

That little boy was Montez.

Yesseca's eyes lit up with surprise. "Montez!"

Although Montez was Tremaine's son, Yesseca didn't think about this often. To her, Montez was an individual separate from his father.

Montez ran up to her and threw himself into her arms. "Yesseca, I've missed you so much!"

Yesseca caressed Montez's head with a big smile on her face. "Montez, I've missed you too."

Montez took out a neatly folded

piece of paper from his pocket and showed it to Yesseca, looking rather proud of himself. "Yesseca, this is my honour certificate. I'm the top student of my year!"

Yesseca looked at it.

She was happy for Montez.

"Montez, you're brilliant. I always knew you were the smartest boy."

Montez added, "Not just the smartest but also the most handsome too."

Yessecalaughed.

Preslie walked in at this moment.

She had come to chat with Yesseca.

When she spotted Montez, she was so taken in by him.

God, what a handsome little boy.

He looked a little familiar too.

Preslie remembered seeing him at the entrance of Yessica's apartment building. Even then, she was amazed at how good looking he was.

At the time, she'd been a distance away. Seeing him up close and personal, Preslie was even more awed by his appearance.

His skin was fair and his eyes shone brightly. He was still a child, but it was easy to see that he would grow up to be an extremely handsome man. "What a beautiful child. How can there be such a good-looking child?" Preslie couldn't help saying.

She couldn't stop herself from touching his face either.

Wow.

His skin was so soft that it felt like silk.

Preslie wanted to touch him again, but Montez dodged her.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

He didn't like it when people other than Yesseca touched his face.

Montez couldn't feeling a little repulsed by Preslie. "You're quite fat, you know."

Preslie's hand froze in place.

She never would've expected a child to say something like that to her. Hurt flashed across her face.

She retracted her hand.

Although Montez was a child, he was also pretty shrewd. He could see how hurt Preslie was from his comment.

He suddenly didn't feel so repulsed by her.

Montez coughed and said, "You're a little fat, but you're cute."
