My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1957

Yuliana asked, "Zorion, do you think of yourself as smart?"

Zorion was shocked to hear her say that.

After a brief moment, he scratched his head. "I... I'm not smart. I know I'm not as smart as Tremaine and I'm also not as smart as my wife. You are all smarter than me."

Yuliana sneered.

It seemed that Zorion was quite self-aware.

Although she was sneering inside, Yuliana looked very gentle on the outside. She took Zorion's hand and said, "Zorion, it's good that you are aware of that. You see, you aren't as smart as us, that's why you were tricked by Ruth. That's why you think she's a good person."

Yuliana paused for a moment, then continued "So you see, Madam Quartley, myself, and even Tremaine are much smarter than you. We can see what kind of person Ruth is with just one glance. So Zorion, listen to me and don't say such things about Ruth. You were cheated by her all along."

"But..." Zorion still wanted to say something, but Yuliana interrupted him. She glared at him and said, "Zorion, that's enough. Let's put an end to this. Remember, Ruth isn't a good person."

She then pointed to herself. "I'm your wife. I would never lie to you. Zorion, do you trust me?"

Zorion nodded and said, "I believe you, my wife."

Yuliana smiled and said, "That's right. Come Zorion, let's go and play. Don't ever mention that woman again. Just pretend that Ruth never existed."

Zorion took a deep breath.

He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what.

He ended up not saying anything at all.

He then obediently followed after Yuliana.

Ruth met with Yesseca at the gates of the Quartley Palace.

Yesseca had been waiting for Ruth.

While Ruth was packing up her things, Yesseca was thinking very hard about this situation.

She was certain that Ruth would never have done such a cruel thing.

That's why Yesseca was here.

She had to get Ruth to tell her truth.

"Ruth." Yesseca called out to her the moment she saw her.

Ruth stopped walking.

She could tell that Yesseca had been waiting for her.

Ruth's eyelashes trembled. "Yesseca."

Yesseca stared into Ruth's eyes. "Ruth, I'll ask you again. Are you being threatened? I still don't believe that you would have done such a thing. Tell me the truth. It's not too late."

Ruth gently shook her head and said, "Yesseca, I've already told you the truth. No one has threatened me. You're overthinking this."

"Are you sure, Ruth? Are you absolutely certain?"

"I'm certain."

Yesseca didn't know what to say to her.

She simply stood there silently. She wanted to say something, but couldn't.

Logically speaking, since Ruth said that no one was threatening her, it really must have been her own doing. Yesseca should be disgusted at Ruth.

Because Yesseca despised women who would ruin other people's marriages.

However, when she looked at Ruth, she found that she didn't hate her at all.

She even felt sympathy seeing Ruth leave the Quartley palace.

Yesseca added, "It's so strange. I really despise that kind of woman. However, I don't know why, but Ruth doesn't make me feel that way. I just feel very sad for her. I don't know why I feel this way."

Tremaine sighed.

He placed his arm around Yesseca's waist and said, "Regardless of how you feel, she's already gone. It's all in the past. Don't think about it anymore."

"Hmm," Yesseca replied.

Suddenly, she felt depressed.

The moment she turned around to walk back into the Quartley Palace, Yesseca said, "That was probably the last time I will ever see Ruth again. In fact, we got along very well. If it weren't for this incident, she would have been able to stay in the Quartley Palace. We would have become good friends."

Right at this moment, Yesseca hadn't realized that this wouldn't be the last time she would see Ruth again.

In fact, she would reunite with Ruth sooner than she thought.

Ruth would actually return and cause an uproar in the Quartley Palace. Both Yesseca and Tremaine would never have imagined what she would do next.

Nor did everyone who lived in the Quartley Palace.

Everyone thought that Ruth had left forever and would never return again.

Ruth also thought the same.

She walked very far down the road. Eventually she turned around and realized that she couldn't see the Quartley Palace anymore.

She then stopped.

She looked very dazed.

She thought that she would continue to serve Yuliana and Zorion for the rest of her life, but...

Ruth had no idea where she was or where she was going.
