Chapter 1963
As for him, he would marry Yesseca when he had grown up.
Yesseca was shocked...
Montez's mother.
Yesseca had never thought about this, because she had never seen her before. But the moment Montez mentioned her, she began to think about it.
Yesseca felt her heart twist inside.
Montez's mother.
She must have been Tremaine's previous girlfriend.
What kind of woman was she?
She must have been very beautiful.
Yesseca felt her heart twisting tighter and tighter.
After some time, she managed to calm herself down.
She then said, "Montez, you should go to bed. I'll be going now. We'll talk some more tomorrow."
"Oh." Montez replied.
Yesseca quickly left his room.
Her eyes were downcast, she looked very disturbed.
The mind of a person was a very strange and complex thing.
Even though certain things or people definitely existed, if you didn't think about them or talk about them often, they would be completely forgotten.
But the moment they were mentioned again, it would feel like a fishbone was stuck in your thoat.
Tremaine waited for quite some time before Yesseca finally returned to their room.
When Yesseca had left the room earlier, she looked very confident. But when she came back, she suddenly looked terribly demoralized.
Tremaine looked at her with a faint smile and said, "What's the matter? I thought you said you knew exactly what to do? Seems like you weren't able to talk to him."
Yesseca glared at Tremaine.
She had something she needed to ask him.
She wanted to ask him about Montez's birth mother.
But then she thought about it.
There wasn't a need to ask about her.
Because ever since she had met Tremaine, she had never once seen that woman.
She assumed that Tremaine had divorced his ex-wife for many years now and had never maintained contact.
If she asked him this, it would do nothing else but cause more problems between them.
Yesseca decided not to ask him.
She walked over to the bed and laid down. "I'm so tired. I want to sleep."
Tremaine felt that something was wrong with Yesseca.
He walked over to the bed and hugged her, "What's wrong? Did Montez say something that made you upset? I'll go and talk to him!" Montez was his son.
But Yesseca was also his wife-to-be.
If his son had bullied his wife, he would have to punish his son!
Yesseca quickly said, "No, that's not what happened. I just feel very tired all of a sudden."
Yesseca closed her eyes after saying that. "Let's just go to sleep. I'll be fine tomorrow."
Tremaine wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, decided not to.
Perhaps Yesseca's conversation with Montez didn't go as smoothly as she had expected.
He may be young but he definitely wasn't mature.
He still had delusions of marrying Yesseca.
Tremaine's lips were twitching as he thought about this.
He figured he should have a talk with Montez tomorrow.
Ruth's cousin was named Olivia.
She had opened a restaurant in Nashaland.
After Ruth went to seek refuge with her cousin, Olivia had arranged for her to work as a waitress in her restaurant.
Her salary wasn't very large, it was much lower than the average salary a waiter would earn in Nashaland. But Ruth didn't mind.
For her, having a place to stay was more than enough right then.
Because the restaurant operated till late at night, even though it was midnight, they were still serving customers.
Ruth was responsible for serving food and drinks to the guests.
After serving them their food, Ruth said, "Please enjoy your meal."
Ruth then turned around and was about to leave.
Suddenly, one of the guests grabbed her hand.
Ruth was surprised.
She turned around and saw a burly man grinning cheekily at her. "What a beautiful young lady and such a tender little hand. Come here, let me give you a kiss."
The man then went to kiss her hand.
Ruth was shocked and appaled.
She pulled her hand away forcefully.
But the man was much too strong, Ruth couldn't pull herself away.
Realizing that the man was about to kiss her, Ruth quickly stamped down hard on his foot.
She brought her foot down hard.
The man cried out in pain and let go of her hand.
The man became furious when his advances were rejected.
He pointed at Ruth and cursed at her, "F*ck, you cheeky b*tch! Do you know who I am? My brother works at the president's mansion. You should be honored that I even touched you. How dare you step on me? You shameless wh*re!"
The man then yelled for the manager.
Ruth's cousin, Olivia, quickly ran over.
After hearing the man's explanation, Olivia's face fell.
She looked at Ruth and said, "Ruth, how could you do such a thing? There's nothing wrong with a guest touching you! You won't die from them just touching you! Do you think so highly of yourself? The guest is always right. You should feel honored to be touched!"
Ruth looked at her cousin in disbelief.
She thought that her cousin would stand by her over something like this. She never expected her cousin to scold her!
Olivia apologized to the men with all kinds of gifts and promised to deduct Ruth's salary for an entire month. The male guests were satisfied after.
After the men had left, Olivia called Ruth over.
She then said, "Ruth, I'm sorry. I didn't mean any of those things I said. I only did that to calm them down, I had to. Please don't take it personally." Although she had apologized, there wasn't a trace of guilt or sympathy in her voice.
Ruth didn't respond.
Olivia continued, "Ruth, you have to understand that our customers are always right. If they want to do something to you, just let them do it. What do you think you're doing earlier? You're ruining our reputation."
"Cousin, I can tolerate all kinds of things, but he... he grabbed my hand, I can't stand that!" Ruth's face flushed as she said this.
Olivia replied with a forced smile onNôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

you, acting all innocent! Ruth,
cousin, it is your own business if you
don't want the customer to touch
you. Just don't annoy the guests next time, otherwise you'll ruin my restaurant's reputation. If that happens, you're on your own!" Content belongs to
Olivia then walked away.
Just as she was about to walk out of the door, Olivia suddenly turned around.
She then looked at Ruth and said, "Ruth, I know that you used to work at the Quartley Palace. You must be very proud to have served the wife of the president's brother, but you should know that things are very different here. You're no longer in the Quartley Palace. Stop acting so high and mighty!"
Ruth bit her lip.
She kept quiet.
As Olivia walked out, her eyes began to water.
She'd never acted high and mighty.
Ever since she made her way to her cousin's restaurant, she had done her very best to help out. She had been very supportive and hardworking. But
then she had gotten accosted by this customer...
Just then, Ruth felt a strong impulse.
She wanted to leave.
She wanted to leave this restaurant.
But where could she go after?
Would there be a place for her in the big wic^e world?
