Chapter 1988
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.
After soothing the customers, Olivia
pulled Ruth to a corner. She scolded
Ruth, "Ruth, what are you doing? You are affecting business! Why did you vomit in front of the customer?"
"What the heck are you trying to do?"
sw no
Ruth knew she was wrong. She lowered her voice and said, "Olivia, I'm sorry. The customer's meal expenses can be deducted from my salary."
Olivia sneered.
She said, "Of course I'll deduct it from your salary. If I don't deduct it from your salary, do you think I'd be paying for it? I'm warning you, Ruth. If there is a next time, you'll be kicked out of here!"
Ruth said nothing.
She lowered her head and silently walked away.
In a litt while, all the customers were gone and Ruth went to a corner. She started getting lost in her thoughts.
Past events came to her mind unexpectedly.
When she was in Quartley Palace, Yuliana bad also been very fierce to her.
She felt terrible every time she was scolded by Yuliana.
Whenever Zorion noticed she was down, he would comfort her.
Although Zorion was a fool, he'd tried his best to comfort her and make her happy.
Every time she was comforted by Zorion, Ruth would feel warmth in her heart, and her sadness would just dissipate just like that.
But now...
Ruth bit her lower lip gently with her neat white teeth.
No one was there to comfort her anymore.
Yesseca returned to Agaphen City.
Under her request, Matthew sent her back to her own house.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Her house that belonged to her and Lothar.
The house had been left empty for a long time, but it was still clean without even a trace of dust.
Yesseca's eyes flashed in astonishment.
Matthew said, "Selina hired someone to clean the house regularly. She said this is both yours and Lothar's home. She'd never let this house get dirty and covered in dust."
Yesseca's heart was filled with warmth.
She said, "Matthew, I really appreciate what she's doing for me."
"It isn't anything much," Matthew said, "Yesseca, while you're living here, just tell me what you need and I will arrange it for you."
Yesseca nodded.
She said, "I don't need anything. I'm an adult now and can take care of myself."
Then, she added, "You should head back home. I know you have other things to deal with, you can't just keep looking after me."
Matthew said, "Take good care of yourself."
He left.
Selina was still resting after giving birth and he couldn't leave her alone for too long.
Plus, he needed to contact Tremaine.
He wanted to ask Tremaine personally what exactly had happened with him and Yesseca.
If Tremaine had really decided to cancel the wedding because of his son's biological mother and dumped Yesseca then and there, Matthew figured he needed at least to force an apology out of Tremaine for Yesseca's sake.
After Matthew left, Yesseca sat on the sofa.
She looked around.
Her home was still familiar and warm.
It was just that...
Yesseca let out a bitter laugh.
Finally, she was back.
Perhaps this was her destination all this while.
Quartley Palace was nothing more than a dream.
It was a beautiful illusion.
Now, however, the dream had been shattered.
Tremaine had been missing for several days, and he was nowhere to be found.
Hogan was so anxious that his hair had turned white.
At first, he'd still had a few strands of black hair left, but now, even the remaining black hair was graying.
He hadn't gotten a wink of peaceful sleep ever since Tremaine went missing.
He was already old to begin with, but now, he seemed ancient.
One morning, before dawn, Hogan received a call.
After hearing what the other person had to say, Hogan got a little worked up.
