My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1709

She wanted to see her brother, even if it was just a shell of what he used to be.

Even if her brother had no soul to recognize her.

"You want to see your brother?" Essie sneered. "Find a way to get Selina to consume the contents of the bottle. I can guarantee you'll be able to see your brother then. He will no longer be a body without a soul, he would return to a living breathing human."

As she spoke, Essie put her lips close to Yesseca's ear and said, "Don't you want your brother to stand beside you again? To have him accompany you when you eat and talk to you like before?"

Yesseca's breathing became more rapid.

Essie's words were too tempting to her.

She couldn't resist.

She could only clench her hands. Her nails dug into her flesh, and after a a few beats, her mind cleared. "I can't do this. I can't harm Selina like this."

"You even call her your sister!" Essie's voice sank. "She's not your sister. She killed your brother,

Yesseca. Selina is a murderer!"

Yesseca stared blankly at Essie.

Essie glared at Yesseca. "Whether it's Matthew or Selina, they're all lying to you. They killed Lothar and took his heart. Right now, I just want them to return what they have to its rightful owner. The reason Selina is treating you so well is because she feels guilty. She isn't fit to be your sister, and she isn't fit to be friends with your brother."

She pointed at herself and said, "I am your brother's one true friend. I'm the only one who was ever truly good to your brother, do you understand?"

Yesseca felt like there were countless thoughts in her mind, tearing her apart.

She couldn't say a word. She could only look at Essie.

Essie returned the small bottle to Yesseca and stuffed it back into Yesseca's chest pocket. "Remember to find a way to get Selina to take this. Sprinkle it in her water or in her meals. The powder is colorless and tasteless, so she won't notice it."

"Also, don't raise Selina's suspicions. Matthew is looking for me now. I'm guessing they must have discovered something, so you must be careful. Yesseca, remember what I've told you."

Yesseca opened her mouth, and her throat was extremely parched. "What will happen to her?"

Essie sneered, "Nothing's going to happen. I'm just returning things to the original owner. Her heart belongs to Lothar. All she would be doing is returning that heart to him."

Essie sent Yesseca to the foot of the mountain.

Yesseca had went up to the mountain to return the bottle to Essie, but now, the bottle was returned to her.

Before Yesseca left, Essie said to her, "Remember to give it to Selina. You'll be able to see your brother then."

Emotions surged in Yesseca's heart.

She suddenly murmured, "I don't want to hurt her, not even a single bit. She treats me very well."

Essie saw how stubborn Yesseca was and couldn't help but turn cold. "Remember, she's only treating you this well because she's guilty for the death of Lothar. She has taken something that belongs to your brother!"

Yesseca returned to her workplace before lunch.

Preslie took Yesseca to have lunch together and said, "I've already applied for a leave for you.

There are people to take care of your store. You can have lunch and head home to rest."

Yesseca shook her head. "I'm not going back."

Preslie thought about what she said for a moment and spoke, "If you're not going back, come with me to work. I'm feeling bored."

Yesseca nodded in agreement.

As Preslie ate, she made an order for one serving of chitterlings.
