Zorion said, "Ruth truly is a good person, I'm not lying. I know she is."
Madam Quartley was getting furious hearing Zorion's words.
She looked at Zorion in disgust and said, "You are too stubborn, Zorion! You are not allowed to hang around that woman anymore!"
Looking at Madam Quartley's fierce look, Zorion fell silent.
Madam Quartley and Yuliana continued saying a lot of bad things about Ruth, but Zorion didn't say anything back.
Just when Madam Quartley and Yuliana thought that Zorion had finally understood, he said suddenly, "I don't care what you think, Ruth is a good person. She's always played with me."
Yuliana was so angry that she almost exploded on the spot.
If it wasn't for the fact that Madam Quartley was there, she would have taken off her heels and smashed them into Zorion's head.
Although Madam Quartley was mad, she was also a little worried.
She stopped talking to Zorion and pulled Yuliana aside.
Madam Quartley said, "Yuliana, although Zorion is a fool, he has always listened to me. This is the first time that he has been so stubborn. It appears that the servant has rooted herself in his heart."
Yuliana knew it too, otherwise, she would not have come and found Madam Quartley.
Yuliana said, "Madam Quartley, I told you, that shameless woman seduced Zorion when I was not looking."
Madam Quartley pondered for a moment and said, "Yuliana, I'll talk to Zorion on your behalf. But you must spend more time with him. It is important for a husband and wife to get along well. You must bring him back to your side."
After a pause, Madam Quartley said, "Zorion's grandfather was like this as well. He was seduced by a woman, and I had to spend a lot of effort to bring him home. I cooked for him, massaged him, I even read up on architecture when he was interested in it as well. I chatted with him regularly, and I finally managed to bring him back to me."
After that, Madam Quartley looked deeply at Yuliana.
Yuliana understood what Madam Quartley meant.
Did she want her to behave that way as well?
How could it be!
How could Yuliana do that?
She didn't have that much time to spend on Zorion!
If it was Tremaine, she wouldn't have minded. But Zorion was a fool, so how could Yuliana spend so much time with him?
It would be easy to bring Zorion's attention away from Ruth. As long as he knew what Ruth was like, she would succeed!
Yuliana said to Madam Quartley, "I understand, Madam. I will spend my time with Zorion. I will show him how amazing I am, and let him clearly see what kind of person that servant is!"
Later, Yuliana went to find two servants.
A man and a woman.
She gave some instructions to them.
The two of them felt like they were in a dilemma.
The female servant named Margot said, "Madam Yuliana, this isn't right. Ruth didn't steal anything, | can't say that."
The male servant spoke up as well. "That's right, Madam Yuliana. Ruth does not even talk much, if | spoke about her like that, it wouldn't be right."
Yuliana stuffed a stack of money into the two servants' hands.
