"Miss Fernandez." Sheldon explained, "It's not easy for anyone to go and see him. If just everyone could simply walk in and talk to him, then he would end up talking to so many people, he'd never get anything done!"
Preslie was quiet.
Sheldon sounded very strict, which made her nervous.
She lowered her voice and said, "I... I know I'm no one important, but I'm doing this for Yesseca's sake. I'm afraid that she'll be devastated from this."
Previously, Yesseca had come to see her and said that she was going to leave Nashaland and return home to Agaphen City. She thought that Yesseca had already made up her mind. But then Tremaine had gone to see Yesseca and brought her back. She could tell that Yesseca had been very happy to see him.
Preslie knew that Yesseca still cared for Tremaine.
If Tremaine married Princess Navidia, Yesseca would definitely die of depression.
Sheldon's heart softened when he saw how pitiful
Preslie looked.
He lowered his voice and said gently. "Well, nothing has been decided yet. You don't have to worry about it. Go back to work. Don't get distracted by these kinds of things."
Preslie's mouth opened.
She wanted to say something but didn't.
Sheldon looked so kind and gentle. She was afraid that Sheldon would be upset if she said something stupid, so she thought about it and decided to keep quiet.
Yesseca slept until the afternoon.
She couldn't fall asleep at first. It was still daytime after all, but she soon fell asleep in a daze. When she was asleep, Yesseca had another dream, but it was a very messy one. When she woke up, she had forgotten all about it.
Yesseca got up to have lunch.
After lunch, she thought of everything she had read online.
Yesseca felt her heart tightening.
She'd always assumed that Tremaine wanted to marry her because he wanted to and no one else cared about it. Now she knew how much pressure Tremaine had to endure just to marry her.
He was a good man.
She suddenly thought about him in her mind.
His body was surrounded with layers of golden circles in her mind.
Tremaine was shining brightly like a godly figure she had once seen on a television show.
Yesseca stood up.
No, Tremaine was facing so much pressure because of her, she had to do something. She wouldn't be a heartless person, nor could she do anything grand. Thinking about it, Yesseca decided to prepare dinner for Tremaine.
Although Madam Quartley and Yuliana had tossed her soup away yesterday, she would make it again.
This time, she wouldn't just prepare some soup for him, she would also prepare some proper food for him.
To show her sincerity, Yesseca went to the supermarket by herself.
She wasn't just going to cook it herself, she would personally pick out the ingredients as well.
At the supermarket, Yesseca was picking out some vegetables in the produce section when she suddenly heard two women talking beside her.
"Princess Navidia is so beautiful. She's gorgeous.
I saw her waving her hand in the car. She's a real beauty."
"I wonder if the president will finally fall in love with Princess Navidia today."
"Haha, our president is so handsome, even Princess Navidia would be tempted by him."
"That's true. I hope that her visit can help bring our two countries together successfully. I'm looking forward to the day when Nashaland becomes the number one country in the world."
As the women continued chattering, Yesseca was silent.
Her hand was frozen in place.
Her brain was slowly piecing together what she had just heard.
Princess Navidia.
Was the princess of Megeland here in Nashaland?
After some time, Yesseca placed the vegetables in her bag.
Since she was here, she was here.
Yesseca then returned to Quartley Palace.
