My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 2606

"You've made an amazing career for yourself, Yesseca. I'm very happy for you."

Yesseca could tell from Tremaine's tone that he was sincere.

He was actually happy for her.

"Thank you." Yesseca added, "Ruth, Preslie, and I have spent some time in Nashaland recently."

"We all agree that Nashaland looks even better than it's ever been. So many things have been improved compared to before."

"You turned Nashaland into an amazing country."

Tremaine smiled at Yesseca's words of praise.

Being appreciated made him feel less nervous.

He then said, "To be honest, I never expected you to break out into your own business."

"Is that so?" Yesseca asked.

She didn't sound angry at all.

Tremaine nodded.

Yesseca smiled. "Why do you say that?"

Tremaine's eyes misted up in reminiscence as he said, "Because I still remember you as the weak innocent girl."

"And women who have careers are always strong-willed and sharp. I didn't think you could become one."

Yesseca smiled as she reflected on herself.

She had thought the same as well.

She had always known how weak she was.

Especially when she was hospitalized.

Everyone was relieved that she managed to survive back then.

But none of them ever imagined how successful she would become.

"Actually, I felt the same way at first." Yesseca continued, "When I first left Nashaland, I was very depressed."

Before she could continue, Tremaine cut in and apologized, 'Yesseca, I'm very sorry for that. That was completely my fault." Yesseca looked at him and recognized the pain and guilt in his eyes.

She smiled, relieved.

She replied, "Yes, it really was your fault back then. But then, so what? So many years have passed since then and I've already learned to let go and move on with my life. I mean, I'm out here with you right now. We just had dinner and are enjoying coffee together."

Even though Yesseca said that, Tremaine still felt enormously guilty and pained.

He still remembered how she looked that day.

How sad and in pain Yesseca was!

He was a monster!

For causing her to go through that!

He never should have believed Qiana's lies of Yesseca!

He had been so stupid!

Now, Yesseca and he could never be the same again!

Yesseca continued, "So after that, I tried to look for something to do. I just happen to have an interest in baking and running a business, so started one. As more and more work came in, I expanded and handed responsibilities over to my partners."

"Over time, my partners realized that I couldn't do everything all the time, so we agreed that I would focus on baking and developing recipes."

"I never expected our business to take off as well as it did."

Then Yesseca smiled, "Well, I guess

that's just life. You never really know

what comes your way. One thing

that I'm sure of though, is that the

me right now, is very happy.

"I'm very happy to have friends and my own business."

Tremaine felt better when he saw how happy Yesseca was.

Time passes quickly when you're having fun. Before they knew it, it was alright dark outside.

Yesseca realized that it was time to head home.

Tremaine offered to send her home.

But she refused, saying that there was no need to. She could make it home on her own.

Tremaine insisted.

Seeing how sincere he was, she accepted his offer.
