My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1951

Just as Tremaine had gotten lost in his thoughts, Yesseca's voice sounded again, "Tremaine, you promised me that you would investigate the matter with Ruth, but you have not!"

Tremaine's gaze hardened.

Although Yesseca didn't say anything, Tremaine understood.

That night, Ruth had been beaten by Madam Quartley and Yuliana, an incident that Yesseca must have found out by now.

Tremaine said, "I'll handle it, don't worry."

"How can I not be worried!" Yesseca raised her voice. "Tremaine, I just went to see Ruth and found out that she was beaten up. I asked her and she revealed nothing, but I can guess that it was Yuliana who beat her, wasn't it? You said that you would handle the matter properly, but you didn't. You caused Ruth to be beaten!"

Yesseca's tone rankled with accusations.

And this hit a raw nerve in Tremaine.

After all, in his opinion, Ruth was just an outsider, and Yesseca was blaming him because of an outsider.

Tremaine rasped, "Yesseca, you have to understand that Yuliana is my eldest brother's wife, and Ruth climbed into his bed. Even if Yuliana, in fit of rage, attacked Ruth, that's understandable."

Tremaine's words made Yesseca furious.

She was not a woman with distorted principles.

If this happened to someone else, and the wife beat up the woman who climbed onto her husband's bed, and Yesseca would even applaud her.

But Ruth...

Yesseca did not think that Ruth was someone like that.

She had a strong feeling that there must be some misunderstanding.

It was even possible that Ruth might have been the victim!

But now, Yuliana had raised her hand against Ruth before the truth was revealed, which was unacceptable to Yesseca.

What's more, in Yesseca's heart, Yuliana had never been a good person.

"Tremaine, you know everything, don't you? You know that Yuliana beat Ruth," Yesseca raised her voice and said, "and you even condoned the act.

Tremaine, how could you? You allowed Yuliana to beat Ruth. You are the President of Nashaland. I always thought you were a fair and just person. How could you do this? Tremaine, I was wrong about you!"

Tremaine was originally in a good mood today, but now it was completely destroyed by Yesseca.

His voice was filled with anger. "Yesseca, I don't have time to think about matters between Ruth and my brother. I'm the President of Nashaland, so I'm in charge of national affairs. It's impossible for me to meddle in other people's family matters! This is my brother's family matter, so it should be settled by them. I agreed to investigate for your sake, but you're blaming me before I have the chance to. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have given you my word!"

Both Tremaine and Yesseca were angry.

She said, "Wow, what a holier-than-thou attitude you're putting on there. So you just sit and watch as your family is deep in trouble! You allowed Yuliana to physically abuse Ruth before the matter was cleared up. This is on you! Tremaine, you should apologize to Ruth!"

Tremaine mocked, "Ha! You're asking me to apologize to her. Yesseca, for the record, it wasn't me who made her climb into my brother's bed! Aren't you sort of mistaking something here?"

"Of course I'm not!"

Beep, beep, beep.

After hearing Yuliana's words, Yesseca felt the pieces of puzzle fit into place. Whether it was Ruth seducing Zorion or Zorion sexually assaulting Ruth, the matter was not clear at all.

At present, everything that Yuliana had said was her own distorted view of the fact.

On the whole, she believed that Ruth was just a lowly servant who was not as nearly as beautiful as her. Which was why she alleged that it was Ruth who had seduced Zorion!

Yesseca said, "Oh, I'm sorry, Madam Yuliana, but I don't think Ruth is worse than you in any way. Before things are settled, you have no right to accuse Ruth of seducing Master Zorion, let alone beating her up!"

"Before the law, even the royal family is not exempted from any guilt. If there is nothing to prove that Ruth seduced Zorion, then you will have to pay the price for your wrongdoings!"

Yesseca thought it over. She had to find out what was going on!

If Tremaine didn't help her to investigate, she would do it herself. Anyway, she must find out the truth!

Hearing Yesseca's words, Yuliana's heart missed a beat.

She thought, would Yesseca really play detective in this?

And if they found out...

Yuliana's face changed slightly. She warned Yesseca, "Yesseca, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because Tremaine is being a little nice to you. This is my family business, and you keep your snooping out of this!"

Yesseca said, "Madam Yuliana, I don't want to interfere in your family matters. I just can't let anyone be wronged or be humiliated like this!"

Ruth was a good, gentle girl. If Zorion had forced himself on her, that would be too much for her to bear!

If things got ugly, there would be no way out for her!
