My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1928

Sheldon replied, "It's no trouble at all. Just doing what I should."

In truth he had been looking forward to doing something like this for her. He didn't find it troublesome at all, in fact he was very happy to do it.

Because he would be helping Preslie out.

He didn't realize how happy it would have made him until now.

"Then you'll still continue to live in Nashaland, right? You won't be going home after all?" Sheldon then asked.

"No." Preslie replied, "I'd better stay in Nashaland. Otherwise, my parents will call even more relatives over. I won't be able to stand that."

Sheldon couldn't stop smiling.

He was over the moon at this news.

Frankly speaking, things just hadn't felt the same after she'd left.

Although they lived together, they've never really crossed each other's boundaries. They both had their own rooms as well. So there really was no reason for him to feel weird about not having her around.

Preslie finally began to relax the moment they got back to Sheldon's home.

She had lived in Sheldon's place for quite some time now. In the beginning she'd felt hesitant to live here, but Sheldon's place felt like home to her now.

She had run away to her parent's house in Agaphen City last night, but it didn't feel the same there anymore.

The moment she got home, she dropped herself on the couch and switched on the television.

She relaxed on the sofa and began munching on some potato chips as she watched a romance movie.

Sheldon saw this and smiled.

He finally realized why things had felt weird before.

It's because she wasn't around anymore. It was weird not to see her relaxing on the sofa, eating snacks and occasionally laughing at something on the television.

Ever since Preslie moved in with him, his empty house had begun to feel like a home. His lonely world didn't feel so empty anymore.

Midway through the movie, an advertisement began to play. Preslie took out her phone.

She casually scrolled through her news feed when her eyes suddenly widened.

"Mr. Hawls!" Preslie called out from the living room.

Sheldon was in the study when he heard her running in.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

Preslie pointed at her phone and said, "Have you seen the news about Yesseca and Tremaine? There are several people saying that they're going to protest on the streets against their marriage!"

She had just stumbled upon the news on her phone while scrolling online. She didn't expect to see such a thing.

Sheldon's face fell. "Yes, I've seen it."

Preslie found it hard to breathe. "You have to put a stop to this. We can't let all these people go out onto the streets and protest. It will cause a lot of trouble."

Although she wasn't very educated about politics, she still knew the basics.

Sheldon frowned.

He felt the same way Preslie did about this, but then...

Sheldon said hesitantly, "Preslie, you should stay out of this. Don't worry about it."

"I can't do that!" Preslie shouted, "Yesseca is my best friend."

Suddenly Preslie stopped talking.

Because she had just discovered something wrong.

She didn't say anything. She simply stared suspiciously at Sheldon.

Sheldon felt goosebumps all over his body from being stared at by Preslie.
