My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



Even though Celine was peeling her away from Amelie, Preslie did not fight back.

There were still a few customers and she didn't want them to see her getting in a fight.

Plus, this was the second store that they planned so hard to open, so she didn't want their reputation to be at risk.

Preslie took a deep breath.

She suggested, "Let's talk outside."

Hearing her reply, Amelia saw a glimmer of hope to their plan.

She immediately said to Celine, "Mom, let's go outside."

Just then, Yesseca came over to them.

Cautiously, she glanced at the three, who were here to cause a ruckus, and then at Preslie. She asked, "Are you okay?"

"Yes, I am alright. Look after the store. I'll talk to them outside."

However, Yesseca hesitated.

She was worried about Preslie being alone, but there were still customers in the store.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Preslie understood Yesseca's thoughts.

She leaned closer to Yesseca and whispered, "Don't worry and take care of the store. I'll take care of the rest."

After that, she walked right out of the store.

Her family followed behind her.

However, she didn't stop when she reached the storefront. Seeing that she was going further and further away, Amelia shouted, "Didn't you say we'll talk outside the store? Where are you going!"

Preslie continued walking.

Seeing this, they wanted to chase her and stop her.

Due to her quickened pace, it took them a while to finally catch up.

By then, they were already quite some distance away from the store.

Knowing that, Preslie no longer held back.

She gritted her teeth and stared at the three people in front of her. "T make it clear once and for all. Lwill never agree to any of your requests! The only thing I have for youds my life

Her family looked at each other.

Calter and Celine were showing signs of hesitation.

They saw the determination in Preslie's eyes.

Although they didn't like her and were greedy for money, they would never take her life.

Just as the two of them were hesitating, Amelia smirked.

She said sarcastically, "Come on! Stop putting on an act! We know you're loaded after opening up the store. Who are you trying to fool? As if you would be willing to give up. your life! Mom and Dad don't want your life anyway. All we wan is the recipes! Do you think we don't know you lead us here so we won't disrupt your store's business?"

After that, she said to their parents, "Mom, Dad! Let's go back to the store and launch our plan!"

Only then did Celine and Calter come to their senses.

So this was what Preslie was doing!

Preslie immediately tried to stop Amelia, who was taking their parents back to the store.

But she alone couldn't stop the three of them.

Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, Preslie felt so desperate that her eyes reddened.

When she was going to risk everything and fight them, a figure appeared.

A tall man in a military outfit? Wasn't this Sheldon?

Sheldon stood in front of the three, stopping them.

Everyone was stunned to see Sheldon's sudden appearance.

Amelia was the first to come to her senses. Rutting on a sweet smile she greeted him, "Isn't this Mr.. Hawls from Nashaland? What a coincidence to see you here

Swno

Although she was looking at him with a charming smile, he returned it with coldness.

Without wasting a second, Sheldon ordered, "Take them away!"

Just then, a group of soldiers appeared out of nowhere and restrained Calter, Celine and Amelia.
