Chapter 1709 Chapter 1709 She wanted to see her brother, even if it was just a shell of what he used to be.
Even if her brother had no soul to recognize her.
"You want to see your brother?" Essie sneered. "Find a way to get Selina to consthe contents of the bottle. I can guarantee you'll be able to see your brother then. He will no longer be a body without a soul, he would return to a living breathing human." As she spoke, Essie put her lips close to Yesseca's ear and said, "Don't you want your brother to stand beside you again? To have him accompany you when you eat and talk to you like before?" Yesseca's breathing becmore rapid.
Essie's words were too tempting to her.
She couldn't resist.
She could only clench her hands. Her nails dug into her flesh, and after a a few beats, her mind cleared. "I can't do this. I can't harm Selina like this." "You even call her your sister!" Essie's voice sank. "She's not your sister. She killed your brother, Yesseca. Selina is a murderer!" Yesseca stared blankly at Essie.
Essie glared at Yesseca. "Whether it's Matthew or Selina, they're all lying to you. They killed Lothar and took his heart. Right now, I just want them to return what they have to its rightful owner. The reason Selina is treating you so well is because she feels guilty. She isn't fit to be your sister, and she isn't fit to be friends with your brother." She pointed at herself and said, "I am your brother's one true friend. I'm the only one who was ever truly good to your brother, do you understand?" Yesseca felt like there were countless thoughts in her mind, tearing her apart.
She couldn't say a word. She could only look at Essie.

Sprinkle it in her water or in her meals. The powder is colorless and tasteless, so she won't notice it." "Also, don't raise Selina's suspicions. Matthew is looking fornow. I'm guessing they must have discovered something, so you must be careful. Yesseca, remember what I've told you." Yesseca opened her mouth, and her throat was extremely parched. "What will happen to her?" Essie sneered, "Nothing's going to happen. I'm just returning things to the original owner. Her heart belongs to Lothar. All she would be doing is returning that heart to him." Essie sent Yesseca to the foot of the mountain.
Yesseca had went up to the mountain to return the bottle to Essie, but now, the bottle was returned to her. Before Yesseca left, Essie said to her, "Remember to give it to Selina. You'll be able to see your brother then." Emotions surged in Yesseca's heart.
She suddenly murmured, "I don't want to hurt her, not even a single bit. She treatsvery well." Essie saw how stubborn Yesseca was and couldn't help but turn cold. "Remember, she's only treating you this well because she's guilty for the death of Lothar. She has taken something that belongs to your brother!" Yesseca returned to her workplace before lunch.
Preslie took Yesseca to have lunch together and said, "I've already applied for a leave for you.
There are people to take care of your store. You can have lunch and head hto rest." Yesseca shook her head. "I'm not going back." Preslie thought about what she said for a moment and spoke, "If you're not going back, cwithto work. I'm feeling bored." Yesseca nodded in agreement.
As Preslie ate, she made an order for one serving of chitterlings.
At first, Yesseca didn't know what it was, but she ate it anyway.
"Is it delicious?" Preslie looked at Yesseca expectantly.
Yesseca's mouth tasted nothing, but she still nodded as a courtesy.
Preslie said happily, "Lettell you about this, its nis chitterlings, one of my favorite dishes." Yesseca's eyes suddenly widened.
She retched all over the place a mere second later.
Preslie was horrified.
She hurriedly patted Yesseca's back and said, "Yesseca, what's wrong with you?" Yesseca picked up the water on the table and gulped it down.
After finishing a big glass of water, she hurried out of the restaurant.
Preslie didn't have the tto eat and followed her out.
At the door of the restaurant, she caught up with Yesseca and grabbed her hand. "Yesseca, don't you like this dish? It's all my fault. I should have told you about it? I didn't know you don't fancy intestines." Yesseca's face turned pale. "Can you please not say that?" Preslie nodded quickly. "Sure, sure. You must still be hungry. Let's get sbread." Yesseca shook her head. "I'm not eating anymore." She had no appetite.
After a pause, she then said, "Let's go buy it anyway." It didn't matter if she didn't eat, but Preslie wanted to, and she couldn't only think of herself.
Then, they went to a bakery to buy scroissants.

It was not yet tto go to work. Yesseca and Preslie were sitting in the dining area of the bakery.
"This is delicious." Preslie was very cute when she ate. Her eyes lit up in a smile and she looked happy.
"I'm looking forward to it." Yesseca suddenly asked, "Do you think the human heart is a frightening thing?" Preslie was eating bread carefreely when she heard Yesseca's words. She was stunned.
She slowly put down the bread in her hands.
She'd lost her appetite.
"Yes, it can be horrifying." Preslie said, "The human heart is a terrible thing. When told you I was studying there was a girl who I was close with. I considered her my best friend. She liked sfood from a store near our school, so I would buy it for her every day. I would even queue up for her. It sounds like I treated her well, didn't I?" Yesseca nodded.
Preslie smiled bitterly. "But one day I accidentally saw her chat log with others on the Internet. She said she liked to hang out withonly מ because I was fat. She felt like she could appear more attractive when she was out with me. It's wasn't as if she likedanyway." After speaking, she lowered her head, her eyes trembled.
Yesseca felt upset after hearing her story.
She reached out her hand to touch her face and said, "Don't mind them, Preslie, that's all in the past. Besides, you've made so many improvements toward your body." X
