Chapter 1774
Days rolled past.
Yesseca and Kyi ins wedding was only three days away.
It was going to be held in Agaphen City.
This was specifically chosen by Yesseca.
Although many girls in Agaphen City would opt for more exotic and romantic locations, say, Maldives, Yesseca insisted on having it locally.
Because it was the place where she was born and raised.
Because her brother's and mother's souls were situated in this city.
This was Yesseca's last day of work.
She took a full month's leave which would officially start on the next day.
Before getting off work, Yesseca took inventory of the goods and handed them over to her colleague who was going to take over for her.
She received a call when she was about to leave.
It was from Montez.
"Hi, Montez," Yesseca answered the phone.
Montez's tone was sorrowful. "Yesseca, are you really getting married?" "Yes," Yesseca said gently. "Montez, I'm already an adult, and getting married is a stage I should go through. I hope you can give me your blessings, okay?"
There was silence at the other end of the line.
After a long silence, Montez said, "Yesseca, can I meet the man you're marrying?"
Yesseca's breath caught in her throat.
He continued stubbornly, "I have to see him so I can rest assured before handing you over to him."
Yesseca couldn't produce a response.
Montez's words were wise beyond his years.
Yesseca knew that she could refuse him, but she could not bear to do it.
She said, "Well, let me make a call, then. Wait for my reply."
Later on, Yesseca called Kylin.
She said that there was a child who wanted to meet him.
"I told you about him before, he's that man's son. I'm really close to him, but it's not because of his father. I just really like him..." Yesseca stuttered out.
In the end, she did not even know what she was saying.
She could only bite the bullet and say, "Kylin, it's up to you to decide whether to meet him. If you don't want to, I'll turn him down."
Although she could not bear to see Montez disappointed, she had to respect Kyi in's wishes.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
However, to her surprise, Kylin agreed
immediately.
"Yesseca, I can see how much you care about him," said Kylin. "I'll meet him."
Montez received Yesseca's reply.
He was going to meet Kylin.
Montez couldn't help feeling down.
At the same time, it felt as though it would be the most painful experience to ever go down in his personal history.
He felt that he should say something to Tremaine.
Tremaine was his father.
Now that he had to man up and experience one of the most brutal moments of his life, it was natural that he should give his father a heads-up. Montez called Tremaine.
However, it was not Tremaine, but Sheldon who picked up the phone.
At this moment, Tremaine was in a secret meeting with the leader of a huge country while Sheldon waited outside.
"Mr. Montez," greeted Sheldon.
"Uncle Sheldon, where is Daddy?" asked Montez.
"He's in a meeting."
"When will he be available to pick up my call?"
"I'm afraid it may take some time, Mr. Montez."
"Fine." Montez felt even more depressed.
He said to Sheldon, "Uncle Sheldon, once Daddy's done, tell him that I've gone to meet my rival in love."
Sheldon fell silent.
He suspected that he had heard it wrong.
Wasn't Montez still in kindergarten?
How could he have a rival in love?
Sheldon couldn't help saying, "Mr. Montez, could you please repeat that?"
He still felt that he had misheard.
Montez repeated, "Uncle Sheldon, tell Daddy that I'm going to meet my rival in love!"
Sheldon was gobsmacked.
Children nowadays were so open-minded!
Sheldon was still a virgin to this day!
Yet Montez, a kindergartener, already had a rival in love!
Montez and Kylin officially met.
He'd expected it to be an extremely tense moment, maybe even ending up in a fight, yet nothing happened.
Kylin was a gentle person who spoke to him so politely and nicely that he was almost swooning.
During their meal, Kylin piled Montez's plate with food. "Kiddo, eat more of this so that you can grow up to be tall!" Montez picked out the vegetables.
He expressed his anger over Kyi in's words. "Don't call me that. I'm a man, a manly man!"
"Pfft..."
There was a burst of laughter.
It wasn't from Kylin. Instead, it came from the people sitting at the table next to theirs.
"That kid is going to go places."
"How interesting!"
Montez's blood boiled and his face flushed.
Kylin, however, spoke to him as if they were equals. "You're right. You're a man, and a manly
one."
Because of Kylin's words, Montez felt a little better.
He continued to eat.
While eating, he observed Kylin.
He was tall.
Montez reluctantly checked it off his mental checklist.
Quite the handsome guy, too.
Another check.
He even had a good temper to boot.
Yesseca would probably not be bullied in the future.
Montez observed Kylin for a while and felt a melancholy surge in his heart. He'd asked to meet Kylin in hopes of finding fault with him so that he could talk Yesseca out of marrying him.
However, he couldn't find a single thing to complain about.
Montez picked at his food, feeling disheartened.
Yesseca probably wouldn't belong to him anymore.
She was really going to marry this man.
His heart twitched.
Suddenly, those words came to his mind again.
Love was about giving, not selfish possession.
He had thought a lot about it over the past few days, and he had made peace with it.
He was too young. It would be years
before he could marry Yesseca, while she was in the prime of her youth. It wouldn't be fair for her to waste her time waiting for him.
Therefore, he would give her his blessings!

Montez suddenly climbed onto the chair and stood on it.
It added to his height.
This way, he could look down at Kylin.
Montez said, "You better take good
care of

Comesseca, or else... or else
you get away with it!" Content

let
For many adult men, it was a humiliation being talked down to by a child. It would most definitely cause them to fly into a rage.
Kylin didn't, though.
He suddenly held his hand out. "I promise you that I'll take good care of Yesseca. If I break my promise, you can come after me."
Montez was stunned.
After a while, he reached out his own little hand.
They shook hands.
Kyi in smiled at Montez.
Montez, on the other hand, wanted to cry.
He suddenly felt terrible.
