Even though Ruth was reluctant to see her leave, she didn't say anything.
After all, it was impossible for her to keep Yesseca here.
Yesseca was had broken up with Tremaine, and there was no longer a reason for her to stay in Nashaland anymore.
Even so, Ruth still felt a little sad.
Though Ruth had never mentioned a word about how living with Yesseca was like, she had been glad to have Yesseca in her home.
Ever since she left Quartley Palace, she had had nothing.
Without any friends, she could only work in her family's restaurant. After work, she always went back home alone and ate alone.
She was very lonely.
Yesseca's arrival had added a touch of color to Ruth's black and white world.
However, it didn't take long for Yesseca to leave.
"Yesseca, will ever you come back?" asked Ruth.
There was a flash in Yesseca's eyes.
Would she come back?
Probably not.
Although her friends, Ruth and Preslie were still here, she really didn't want to come back to a country that had given her so much heartbreak.
Nashaland was a land of sorrow for her.
Yesseca said, "Ruth, I may not be back, but you can come to Agaphen City and visit me anytime. My country is really great, I'll be waiting for you to come."
Ruth nodded fully. "I will. I'll come over and pay you a visit."
Yesseca stepped away from Ruth.
She broke into a smile.
It was time to say goodbye. She wanted to be as happy as possible.
"It's a promise then, Ruth. I'm leaving."
Ruth nodded again.
She waved to Yesseca and said, "Goodbye, Yesseca."
Yesseca turned around and left.
However, after taking a few steps, she was suddenly stopped by Ruth.
Ruth said, "Yesseca, is there no way for you and Tremaine to get back together?"
"Yes." Yesseca replied without any hesitation. "We have no future together."
Since Tremaine dumped her, what possibility could there be between them?
From now on, they would only see each other as strangers.
Ruth's gaze trembled.
Some words were better not to be said.
Emotions were like this. They couldn't be controlled.
Ruth couldn't help but say what was on her mind.
She said, "Yesseca, I always saw the love that you shared with Mr. Tremaine as a fairytale come true. It's not only me, but also many other girls. Yours was a love that overcame boundaries."
Ruth had hoped deeply that Yesseca and Tremaine would stay in love forever.
At least, the dreams of her and so many other girls would not have shattered.
Hearing what Ruth had said, Yesseca felt extremely dejected.
However, she still pretended as if she was fine. She said faintly, "Ruth, you said that it was just a dream. Dreams aren't reality, aren't they?"
Ruth was stunned.
After Yesseca left, Ruth continued working.
She was a little shaken up.
While serving the dishes to the customers, Ruth suddenly felt sick.
For some reason, she felt like throwing up.
She couldn't stop it from gushing out.
"Blurgh!"
Ruth had vomited.
Fortunately, there was a trash can beside the dining table, and Ruth vomited into it.
Seeing Ruth vomit after serving the dishes, the customers were very unhappy. They immediately called the owner to come over.
Ruth's cousin, Olivia, came over.
Olivia apologized to her customers and promised that the customers would receive a refund.
