Sheldon did not know what had happened either.
He'd said that Preslie was overthinking things, and Yesseca was definitely still on good terms with Tremaine. He asked Preslie not to worry too much.
Therefore, Preslie had not thought further for the time being.
But now...
Since she finished work early, Preslie did not go to bed. Instead, she went to Quartley Palace.
However, when she arrived at the Quartley Palace and asked the soldiers, she learned that Yesseca was no longer in the Quartley Palace.
Preslie was stunned.
What?
Yesseca was no longer at Quartley Palace?
Preslie asked the soldiers immediately about what happened.
The soldier knew Preslie. Knowing that Preslie was Yesseca's good friend and that Preslie was working at the President's Office, he explained what had happened.
The soldier said that Yesseca had been expelled from Nashaland by His Excellency.
When Preslie heard this, she was completely taken aback.
After a while, she came back to her senses.
She shouted, "What's going on? How could Yesseca be expelled from Nashaland? What happened?"
The soldier was shocked by Preslie's tone.
He immediately said, "Miss Fernandez, keep your voice down. I told you this because you were concerned, but please don't be so loud."
Preslie lowered her voice but still clenched her fists. "I've lowered my voice. Tell me what happened."
The soldier was not sure either.
He said, "I don't know the details. Anyway, a man came to look for Miss Cowell. His Excellency was angry so he expelled her from Nashaland."
Preslie's head was buzzing.
She said, "When did this happen?"
"About a week ago or so," said the soldier.
Preslie was even more confused.
More than a week?
That was the exact time when she'd started not being able to get through to Yesseca's phone!
She was not aware of this because she had been too busy with the restructuring. She was only made aware of it now!
Preslie went home as fast as she could.
Sheldon was asleep.
Sheldon had been very busy since the work at the President's office increased.
He often accompanied Tremaine to deal with the work until two or three o'clock in the morning, and then he came to work at eight o'clock in the morning. Although Sheldon was strong, he could not take it. The first thing he would do when he got home was sleep.
While he was asleep, he heard a loud banging sound.
This woke him up.
Sheldon thought he was hallucinating and was about to continue sleeping when he heard a loud noise again.
It seemed to be coming from the door.
Sheldon got out of bed in a daze and noticed Preslie.
"Mr. Hawls, His Excellency," Preslie said this and began shouting. She turned away and ran.
Sheldon was shocked.
He was confused.
What was going on?
Why had she run away in a flash?
Sheldon scratched his head. Was he hallucinating because he was too sleepy?
Did no one knock on the door? Had Preslie not been there? Perhaps everything was just an illusion...
Just as Sheldon was about to turn around and return to bed to continue his sleep, his gaze suddenly swept across...
His blood froze.
Sheldon knew that it was not an illusion.
He knew why Preslie had run.
Because of his pants.
When he slept, he wore a pair of shorts, which was the knee-high type.
Because he had been busy for days, he had lost weight.
The moment he got out of bed, his pants had slipped down...
It was at the position where it should not be.
