My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 2028

Sheldon refused to let Preslie clean the streets.

He said, "Preslie, I can't let a woman help me with my work. Please put it down, or else I won't drink the juice."

Preslie had no choice but to put down the vacuum cleaner.

Ever since she was aware that Sheldon had to clean up the streets, she had proposed to help him many times, but he had always rejected her. Since there was no place to sit, Sheldon had to stand by roadside to drink the juice.

The juice that Preslie made was delicious. It was cold and sweet. Sheldon felt like all the heat was gone after drinking it.

As Sheldon drank her juice, he looked absolutely stunning in Preslie's eyes.

Preslie had always thought that people who ate by the roadside looked a little shallow, but Sheldon didn't look like it at all!

He still looked attractive!

Even though he was so tanned and thin, his charisma was still enchanting.

Preslie was obsessed.

She'd never realized that the scene of Sheldon eating alone by the roadside could be so pleasing to the eyes.

In that moment, the sky was dark. There were stars in sky with a gentle breeze blowing in the wind. Every little detail added to the artistic setting.

She would remember this special day for many years to come.

She would remember that there had been a day when Sheldon was not a prestigious colonel in Nashaland's army, but a cleaner.

He stood there, drinking the juice she'd made for him.

All while Preslie was standing at his side.

The scene felt extremely warm and inviting.

Sheldon finished drinking the juice moments after.

He passed the cup to Preslie and said, "Preslie, thank you for this. It's a little late now, you should go back and rest."

Preslie didn't want to go back.

She wanted to accompany him.

However, what excuse could she use?

She couldn't find one.

If she were Sheldon's girlfriend, she could tell him that she wanted to accompany him and go back together after he had finished his work. Alas, she was not.

They were just regular friends.

She had already given him the juice she made, and Preslie was too embarrassed to bring up the notion that she wanted to accompany him. She said reluctantly, "Alright, Mr. Hawls. I shall leave now. You should head home early too."

"Okay, you too. Go back and sleep early."

Preslie really wanted to tell Sheldon that she wanted to stay with him. However, she didn't have the courage to say it, so all she could do was leave. What she didn't know, was that Sheldon had his eyes on her even after she left.

Sheldon's heart was pounding as he was watching her figure retreating.

When Sheldon was at his lowest point, Preslie had insisted on visiting him every single day. She even brought him meals, drinks, and

refreshments. Sheldon thought she was a devastatingly kind girl.

A really, really great girl.

It wasn't until Preslie was completely gone that

Sheldon reluctantly stopped looking in the direction where she had left.

It was a brand new day.

Preslie had gone to Quartley Palace to look for Yesseca.

Tremaine knew she was coming, so he said to Yesseca, "Preslie came to find you. Why don't the both of you go shopping together? Don't women like shopping?" After that, Tremaine gave Yesseca a credit card and said, "Just buy anything you like."

Yesseca was shocked.

Then, she said, "Alright. I'll go shopping with Preslie later. Are you leaving for work at the President's Office?"

"Yes," Tremaine eyes flickered as he felt awash with guilt.

He wasn't going to the President's Office.

Tremaine had asked them to go shopping so that Yesseca had an excuse to not be with him. He had things to do after she left.

"Then I'll be leaving now." Yesseca waved at Tremaine.

"Wait," Tremaine stopped Yesseca. "There's one more thing you forgot to do."

Yesseca looked at Tremaine in confusion.

She didn't know what to do.

Tremaine pointed at his face and said, "You can't leave unless you kiss me goodbye."

Yesseca was stunned.

She had been struggling with Tremaine for so long, but when she came back, he had changed a lot. He had become more romantic.

He'd suggested a shopping trip for them when Preslie came over and even offered up his credit card to her.

When she was about to leave, Tremaine even wanted a goodbye kiss.

Yesseca walked up to Tremaine, tiptoed, and kissed Tremaine's face.

Yesseca's heart was filled with sweetness as she kissed him.

She felt like it was an incredibly romantic scene, just like what she saw in the movies.

The female protagonist kissing the male lead on her tiptoes.

Yesseca began anticipating more goodbye kisses with Tremaine in the future.

She would kiss him like this every day before Tremaine went to work at the President's Office...

However, the idea only existed in Yesseca's mind for a second.

Tremaine had done something.

When she was kissing him, he touched Yesseca's body fervently. Then, he said in a raspy voice, "I'll wreck you tonight."

Yesseca was speechless.

She opened her eyes wide and looked at Tremaine in shock.

How could he be so shameless!

How could he say something like that so openly?

Yesseca did not know what to do with him.

Oh my God! How could he be perfect like a male lead from a movie but say such vulgar things at the same time?

Yesseca kicked Tremaine and said, "You bastard!"

After that, Yesseca quickly ran away.

Yesseca went to the front door of Quartley Palace to meet up with Preslie.

As soon as Preslie saw Yesseca, Preslie hugged her tightly.

She said, "Yesseca, thank God you finally returned to Nashaland. It's good that you've finally made up with Tremaine. Otherwise, I would be so lonely

here."

Qu

As time went by, Yesseca joked, "What if I leave Nashaland and return to Agaphen City? Won't you come back with me, Preslie? I thought if you came along with me to Nashaland, you would also go back with me if I left."

Preslie's throat went dry.

She really did have that idea in mind.

Like when Yesseca told her that she was leaving Nashaland without returning again.

She had every intention to leave with Yesseca.

After all, Yesseca was her best friend.

where he wanted to follow her

she went, and the both of them would have each othercas a companion.

However, she had suppressed the idea.

It was being held down by a simple reason.

It was because Preslie had seen Sheldon cleaning the streets on a hot sunny day, and his body was drenched in sweat.
