My Heart only Beats for You novel Chapter 2211

Business at the store was bustling as usual. Their pastries were long sold out, but it took them two hours to settle the account for the day before they could finally go home.

Despite that, Preslie was feeling down, not her usual self.

Because Calter and Celine came to see her again.

As for why? Simple.

The patisserie she opened with Yesseca was the trend of the town. So much so that they even attracted countless media on their opening day.

They came after seeing the news.

After witnessing how popular the patisserie was several times themselves, Calter and Celine had an idea.

They came to Preslie with ten grand, saying they wanted to buy their shares.

Naturally, Preslie refused them.

She and Yesseca were the best of friends, and they had never planned to have shares for their store. Even if they did, she would never want her parents to be shareholders.

However, despite being rejected, her parents didn't give up, returning to the patisserie repeatedly, wanting to convince her no matter what. They gave her all sorts of promises, but her parents had hurt her deeply and witnessed their true colors, so she didn't budge.

Seeing that their persuasion was failing, they started criticizing her.

And that was why Preslie left the store earlier. The call was to slander her, having her return to the store in a bad mood.

"Preslie, don't let it get to you. C'mon, supper's on me. Nothing good food can't fix." Yesseca comforted Preslie as she locked up the store.

Preslie forced a smile and nodded, but soon her smile froze at the corner of her mouth.

She noticed her parents.

They stood not far away from the storefront and were approaching them.

Preslie immediately dragged Yesseca, wanting to escape, but she was too late.

Their ages didn't hinder their actions at all. They soon arrived in front of Preslie and Yesseca, blocking their way.

Celine started with soliciting empathy, "Preslie, your dad and I are getting old. All we want is some insurance for our future by buying your shares. Ten grand isn't little money, either. We raised you. Shouldn't you fulfill your duty as our daughter? Don't you want to see your dad and I live a comfortable life?"

Preslie's face darkened as she replied, "You're right. You guys did raise me even if you never treated me nice. I will do what I have to do as a daughter in providing for you, but never will I let you two become shareholders of the patisserie Yesseca and I opened. I never provided anything except for my time and effort. Yesseca was the one who provided the finances to the store, so how could I let you join? Just give up, please."

Her intentions were clear; she wanted her parents to give up all hope. However, it only made Celine criticize Yesseca.

Akimbo, she glared at Yesseca. "So you're the one who opposed Preslie of letting us join as shareholders! What gave you the right to do so?! Since you two are co-owners, Preslie has a say in decision- making! Let me tell you. She can do whatever she wants and have anyone as the shareholders. It's a done deal. We're buying in right now! All profits you earn, we will have a part of them!"

"That's right!" Calter added, "We will be asking for your monthly finance reports from now on. We're not greedy people, and we know it's hard work for both of you. So how about this? Ten grand for 40% of the profits and shares?"

Calter and Celine were jealous of how popular Yesseca and Preslie's business was that they were determined to have a slice of the cake.
