Chapter 2425
Sheldom had no idea about Yesseca's past. He said, "Staying optimistic is a very good thing. Especially in this case."
"How did you know that I was in the hospital? Did Preslie tell you?" Yesseca asked.
"No," Sheldon said, "I went to your store and noticed that you and Preslie weren't there. I eventually found Ruth and she told me." Yesseca nodded. She felt as though a stone had been thrown in her heart which caused it to ripple.
Since Sheldon was here, did Tremaine know about this?
When she felt the ripples bounce back, she felt a deep sinking feeling inside her.
Since she had already broken up with Tremaine, there was no need for her to worry about this.
It didn't matter if Tremaine knew or not, it didn't matter to her.
"I'm alright. You didn't have to come all this way." Yesseca replied.
Sheldon was quiet.
He admired Yesseca's optimism.
This wasn't a minor problem, it was a huge one!
Her life was in danger.
"I'll be discharged from the hospital soon." She noticed how worried Sheldon was and said this to ease his concern for her.
Even though she had no idea when she would be discharged.
Sheldon then asked, "You've already got a matching heart?"
Yesseca was surprised.
A matching heart?
She asked, "Why would I need a matching heart? I've already had my operation. My heart is fine. It was a side effect from a previous operation. There's no need to find me a replacement heart." Sheldon was quiet.
He wasn't stupid. Based on Yesseca's reaction, he could tell that she had no idea of her actual condition.
Preslie had been hiding the truth from Yesseca.
"I see." Sheldon replied, "I'm sorry, I must have been mistaken."
Yesseca however, sensed that something was wrong.
She immediately turned to Sheldon and said, "Mr.
Hawls, do you know something about what's wrong with me? Will you tell me?"
Sheldon felt cornered as Yesseca stared at him.
He was a terrible liar, so he quickly excused himself and said, "It's
nothing. I have to go." He thenel

Sheldon returned to Nashaland.
He felt several strong impulses to head to the presidential palace to inform Tremaine about this. But he decided not to.
"No, I can't tell him this."
This was a huge deal.
Tremaine would go crazy if he knew.
He wouldn't pay any attention to his political duties if he knew.
Nashaland's relationships with

might end up in danger.
Sheldon decided to not keep it a secret from him.
Soon it was the following day.
Yesseca was taking her usual afternoon nap.
As she was napping, Preslie then quietly walked out to talk to the others.
It wasn't good to discuss things in the ward after all.
They were doing the same today.
As soon as Yesseca had gone to sleep, Preslie waited for the others to walk out.
But as soon as they left, Yesseca opened her eyes and got up.
She got out of bed and walked to the doctor's office.
The doctor was surprised to see

a walk in. "What are you doing here? You should be resting in bed, you are in no condition to be walking around like this!"
"Doctor, I need to talk to you about my condition." Yesseca said, "They've already told me about it."
The doctor was shocked.
They've already told her?
Hadn't they agreed to keep this a secret from her?
Seeing the doctor hesitating, Yesseca said, "I just want to know when I will be able to get a matching heart." Since Yesseca asked him this question, the doctor then believed that Yesseca already knew everything.
