Yuliana looked at her hands.
They really were quite beautiful.
So slender and fair.
Yuliana snorted.
Regardless, Zorion was not worthy of touching her hands!
Zorion wasn't worthy of holding her hands!
The only person who could was someone like Tremaine!
Zorion reached his hand out again, but Yuliana slapped it away harshly.
She used so much strength then his hand turned red immediately.
"Mr. Zorion!" Ruth exclaimed.
Yuliana glared at Ruth.
Ruth was about to step forward and check on his hand, but she stopped at Yuliana's glare.
Zorion was in so much pain that he feared up.
He was tall and handsome, but also had a certain childish charm about him. The sight of tears filling his deep-set eyes made one feel sorry for him.
Yuliana didn't feel that way at all, though.
She sneered to herself that he was a fool, a complete idiot!
What a fool!
A stupid fool!
He should just die from the pain!
"Yuliana, why did you hit me? It really hurt," Zorion held his hand up and said.
Yuliana pointed directly at Zorion's nose. "You deserve it, you fool. Why didn't you die from that virus?!"
Rage washed over her as she spoke.
Tremaine had made things clear enough with her earlier!
If Zorion had not survived the virus, she would probably already be with Tremaine!
It was all this fool's fault! She wished that he would just drop dead!
Drop dead already!
Zorion was taken aback at her words.
He said blankly, "Yuliana, you want me dead?"
"Of course I want you dead! I loathe the sight of you!" Yuliana said venomously.
Her spiteful words pierced both Zorion and Ruth's hearts.
Ruth felt hurt and angry.
Though Yuliana had never viewed Zorion as her husband, he was still a member of the Quartley family. He was a president's elder brother, an honourable figure! How could he suffer such humiliation?!
Ruth wanted to stop Yuliana.
She did not want her to scold Zorion like this.
She could tell that Zorion was very upset because of her.
She did not dare say anything, though.
She could only lower her head and clench her fists tightly.
She was just a maid.
She had no right to say anything!
She could only do her best to suppress her emotions.
Zorion suddenly mumbled, "Yuliana, I don't believe that you want me dead. You were the one who pulled me out of the darkness. You saved me when I was going to die!"
Yuliana found this ridiculous. She had saved him?
That she was the one who saved Zorion!
Was he referring to when she had howled for the sake of keeping up appearances?
Yuliana sneered. "I meant every word, Zorion. I never wanted to save you, and I want you to drop dead this very moment! An idiot like you is a waste of space!"
Yuliana had always hated Zorion, but she had never said such outrageous things. She was just too emotional because of Tremaine's words.
She could not stop her hatred for Zorion from growing.
