Chapter 2261
All the doubts he had in his mind had finally cleared up.
He had also made up his mind. He was going to find Preslie and help the president and Yesseca get back together.
Sheldon's plan was a simple one.
Since it was all a giant misunderstanding, all he needed to do was explain everything to them.
When he arrived in Agaphen City, Sheldon went over to Preslie's and Yesseca's old store, but found that it had closed down.
He was surprised to see it like this and quickly called Preslie over the phone.
It was Yesseca who answered.
Preslie wasn't in the mood to answer her phone. She was sitting down on a chair inside her newly furnished shop. She was in such a deep daze that she didn't notice her phone had been ringing.
Yesseca answered the call on her behalf.
"Hi Sheldon, sorry but Preslie can't answer the phone right now. Why are you calling?" Yesseca whispered.
Sheldon became worried.
He asked anxiously, "What happened to her?"
Yesseca looked at Preslie from a distance. She wanted to explain but then decided not to.
Noticing that Yesseca wasn't saying anything, Sheldon then asked, "Where are you right now? I'll be right over."
Yesseca told Sheldon their address.
She knew that Preslie and Sheldon were very close.
Perhaps having Sheldon around would help Preslie feel better.
Ten minutes later, Sheldon arrived at the front door of their new store.
Yesseca was waiting for Sheldon at the door.
After getting out of the car, Sheldon immediately asked, "Where is Preslie?"
Yesseca pointed inside the store. She lowered her voice and said, "Preslie is depressed because of her family. They have come causing trouble again."
Sheldon frowned. "Why is her family causing her trouble?"
Yesseca gave him a rough account of what had happened.
Sheldon couldn't believe it!Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
No wonder the shop had closed down! It was because of them!
He had long suspected that there was something wrong with her family, but he never expected them to be so shameless!
He was furious.
Noticing Sheldon's reaction,
Yesseca immediately said, "Sheldon, if you're going to comfort her, it
would be best for you to put your et
negative emotions aside before you do. Now go on and comfort her. You should do so or I'll be upset with you. Then Preslie will be even more depressed."
After being advised by Yesseca, Sheldon nodded, suppressed his anger then walked over to Preslie.
Prelie's eyes were blank.
Her heart was filled with pain and sorrow.
She already felt extremely guilty and uncomfortable when she had to give Yesseca's store to her family.
After that, Yesseca took so much effort to comfort her and told her that it was okay. Then they worked so hard to plan and set up their new store. Everything was going
vel?
smoothly, but then they had to come looking for her again with even more demands!
They wanted the recipe!
Hah!
There was no recipe at all!
It was all skill! Yesseca's skill and talent!
They even demanded that she work for them!
The reason their store had become successful wasn't because of her, it was because of Yesseca!
When her family finally discovered that she couldn't bake anything, they would have then shamelessly demanded Yesseca to work for them! Preslie was certain that would happen!
The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became!
She was falling deeper into her depression and anxiety, until she heard a familiar male voice, "Preslie, are you ok?"
She was stunned.
Sheldon was standing right in front of her.
A look of shock spread across her face.
"Why are you here?"
She stared blankly at Sheldon, unable to say anything.
Sheldon sat down across from her and said, "Yesseca told me what happened. Thope you haven't been~~~ too disturbed by what has happened. The next time something like this happens again, call me. I'll come and sort it out for you. I promise."
