My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Ruth stood in front of the lotus pond for a long time without moving.

As the lotus pond was in a remote area, only a few people who know where it was would drop by. Other than Yesseca, who had been following Ruth all along, there weren't anyone near them. Yesseca stood at one side, looked at Ruth, and felt that things weren't right.

What was Ruth doing?

Why was she standing by the lotus pond?

A thought suddenly came to her mind.

Could it be that Ruth had discovered her, so she stood there deliberately to confuse her?

Yesseca felt that it might be possible.

She thought about it and decided to walk out of her hiding place.

Since Ruth had discovered her, she would straightforwardly show her cards.

As soon as she took a step forward, her eyes widened in disbelief.

She saw Ruth jumping into the lotus pond!

Yesseca quickly rushed over. However, Ruth was already deep in the pond.

And she seemed to be sinking.

Yesseca immediately screamed, "Is there anyone here? Someone, please save her! Help!"

Tremaine was walking towards the villa where Zorion lived.

Halfway there, he thought he heard a shout.

The voice was very weak, as if it came from somewhere far away.

If it was any other passerby, they might not pick out the voice. But Tremaine had special training, and he could pick out even the faintest sound.

He concentrated on the voice.

Soon, he figured out where it was coming from.

He ran towards that direction.

Yesseca saw that Ruth had sunk very deep into the pond. Only her head was visible.

The bed of the pond was muddy and had the texture of quicksand. As Ruth reached the bottom of the pond, she sunk deeper and deeper.

And what's more, Ruth didn't seem to be calling for help or possess any intentions of surviving. She merely let herself sink deeper. Yesseca shouted for a long time, but no one came.

She wanted to run and look for help, but she was afraid that Ruth wouldn't last until she came back.

In the end, there was no other way. Yesseca gritted her teeth and jumped into the pond.

She had to rescue Ruth and drag her out of the pond.

Otherwise, Ruth would die.

Tremaine arrived just in time to see Yesseca jumping into the pond.

He rushed over in an instant.

Yesseca jumped down into the lotus pond and strenuously walked towards Ruth.

But the mud seemed to be sucking onto her leg tightly.

Very soon, Yesseca couldn't move her legs.

And she felt that her body was sinking.

Yesseca's head buzzed.

Sh*t! She was here to save lives. Yesseca hoped that she wouldn't perish here as well.

She was on the verge of tears.

She murmured, "Lothar, please help me. Please look after me."

Suddenly, a pair of arms grabbed onto her.

Yesseca's eyes widened in astonishment.

She jerked her head back.

The person who'd appeared in front of her was not Lothar, but Tremaine!

Tremaine's face was dark. "Are you stupid? Do you think you can just jump in here like it's a swimming pool? Don't you want to live?" Yesseca didn't know what to say for a moment.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

She had no time to explain and immediately pointed towards Ruth. "Mr. Quartley, save her quickly!"

Yesseca didn't know how Tremaine did it.

When she jumped into the pond, she could not even save herself. But Tremaine had saved her and then went back in to rescue Ruth. Yesseca was fine. She was merely caked in mud. However, Ruth was barely breathing when she was dragged out of the pond. Tremaine asked for a doctor to see to Ruth immediately.

As for Yesseca, she went to the nearest bathroom to clean herself up.

As she was bathing, her mind flashed back to the scene when Tremaine was saving her.

There were butterflies in her stomach.

Though the usually clean man had been covered in dirty mud, he had still looked dashing like a hero. He

was even brave enough to e

danger to save someone's life.

into

Thinking of this. Yesseca couldn't help but smile.

She had always thought that Tremaine had a handsome appearance, but at that moment she found that he was not only charming, but as amazing as a superhero! Yesseca's lips curled up even more.

But soon, her smile froze.

Wait, she was only thinking about how powerful and charming Tremaine was. How could she forget about the more important matter?

Why did Ruth jump into the lotus pond?

From what Yesseca saw, it was obvious that Ruth was trying to end things!

But why?

There was no need for such a beautiful young girl to seek death.

And why had Ruth looked for Yesseca before doing so?

Yesseca's mind was confused, and her thoughts were all jumbled up.

After finishing her shower, Yesseca changed into clean clothes and walked out of the bathroom.

As soon as she came out, she saw a small figure guarding the door.

It was Montez.

When Montez saw Yesseca, he took her hand and said, "Yesseca, are you you

alright? I was so scared for Why you jump into the lotus pond? It's dangerous there."

Yesseca decided not to let Montez know much about what happened.

She made up an excuse, "I fell into it by accident."

Montez said solemnly, "Yesseca, you have to be more careful the next time. It's too dangerous."

Yesseca nodded. "I will be careful."

"Yesseca, did Dad save you?" Montez asked again.

"That's right." Yesseca's eyes flashed with admiration. "Montez this is the first time I've seen how powerful your father is. He saved two people on his own. He's like a here!"

"Of course, Dad is the most powerful man." Montez was also proud.

But soon, he changed his mind, "Yesseca, my father is great, but he's no greater than me. If it was me, I could save not only two but three people!"

As Montez finished speaking, a cold voice

sounded.

"Then try and save them."

Tremaine had appeared in their vicinity at some point.

Montez was embarrassed that his own father had seen through his bragging.

He scratched the back of his head. "Dad."

Yesseca cast her gaze towards Tremaine.

Tremaine had also washed up and changed into a clean set of clothes.

Although Tremaine was good looking as ever, Yesseca somehow felt that his muddy self when he'd jumped into the pond to rescue them was more heroic.

He had been handsome beyond imagination!

"You said I'm like a hero?" His maic voice suddenly sounded above Yesseca's head.

Yesseca was at a loss for words.

Montez immediately said excitedly. "Yeah, Dad, I said you are powerful just like Ultraman!"

Yesseca let out a sigh of relief.

It turned out that Tremaine was asking Montez the question.

She was overthinking things.

But the next second...

"I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to Yesseca."

His deep gaze was fixed on Yesseca's face.

Yesseca felt dizzy.

It seems that Tremaine had heard what she said.

Yesseca could only let out a dry laugh. "Yes, Mr. Quartley, you were really amazing just now. You saved two people! What a heroic gesture!"
