My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 1968

Yesseca turned around and then froze.

There really was a thin girl lifting up a pot.

Yesseca recognized her.

It was Ruth.

Ruth also noticed Yesseca.

She suddenly looked awkward.

After Ruth served their food at Yesseca's table, she greeted her, "Ye... Yesseca."

Preslie was surprised, "You two know each other?"

Ruth nodded at her as if to greet her as well.

Yesseca then stood up.

She then said to Preslie with a smile on her face, "Preslie, have a seat. I'm just going to talk to Ruth for a little bit."

Yesseca then pulled Ruth aside.

She carefully looked at Ruth.

It hadn't been very long since she last saw Ruth, but she seemed a lot weaker than before and she looked very bruised as well. She had dark circles around her eyes too.

Yesseca looked at her suspiciously.

How did Ruth end up like this in such a short time?

She then asked, "Ruth, how did you end up becoming a waitress here, and how did you end up looking like this?"

Ruth faltered. "My cousin runs this restaurant. I work here now."

"Are they cruel to you?"

"No, the restaurant is just very busy all the time. I'm fine."

Yesseca relaxed.

She figured that since Ruth's relatives ran this restaurant, they wouldn't treat her badly.

Ruth looked so skinny now, she must have been badly overworked with how busy the restaurant was.

Yesseca then said, "Ruth, I'm getting married tomorrow. Will you be able to attend my wedding?"

Ruth replied immediately, "I'm sorry, I won't be attending. But I wish you well. I'm really happy for you."

Ruth had rejected her invitation, so Yesseca didn't insist.

It was probably for the best that Ruth and Zorion didn't see each other again.

But she had also considered Ruth her friend, that was why she had extended her a verbal invitation.

After chatting for a little bit, Ruth then excused herself as she had to get back to work.

Yesseca then said, "Alright, I won't keep you from you work then. I'll come and visit you again soon, Ruth."

Ruth forced out a smile and went back into the kitchen.

When she entered the kitchen, she saw her cousin, Olivia standing with her hands on her hips.

Olivia was annoyed when she saw Ruth walk in.

She then said, "Ruth, don't you know that it's the busiest time for our restaurant right now? What's taking you so long? Can't you see how busy the restaurant is?"

Ruth was about to respond.

She wanted to say that she had bumped into a friend who was eating here. She just had a quick chat with her friend. But then decided to keep it to herself.

Her cousin was just a stranger to her now.

Olivia scolded her with her hands on her waist and a very angry face. She looked very different to how sweet she was before when she'd asked her for money.

An hour and a half later, Yesseca and Preslie had finished their meal.

Yesseca looked around the restaurant.

She wanted to say goodbye to Ruth.

But after looking around for a while, she couldn't find her at all.

Yesseca and Preslie then decided to leave.

After Yesseca stepped out, someone suddenly walked towards the door.

It was Ruth.

She watched Yesseca slowly disappear into the distance.

Her eyes watered.

She suddenly heard Tremaine's voice echo in her ears.

He said that everyone was equal.

Nobles and ordinary people were the same, all equal.

She had been so excited to hear him say that.
