Ruth had considered returning the child to the Quartley family on her way back.
Because the child would then be able to grow up in a much healthier environment, and would also be able to enjoy the things that her poor mother could never offer in her lifetime.
But in the end, the idea was put to rest by Ruth.
Because Ruth thought of Yuliana.
She was well aware that Yuliana was a vicious person, and Zorion was as innocent as a child.
Yuliana would not treat the child well if she returned the child to the Quartley family. She might even mistreat him when no one was around. Ruth could not let her child suffer such abuse.
Therefore, she could only raise this child by herself.
Although she couldn't give this child a prosperous life, she thought that she would give up all her love to give this child a happy, beautiful childhood.
This was the only thing she could do.
Yuliana had been frustrated lately.
Yuliana knew that this was all within Qiana's machinations when she'd heard the whole story.
Just how amazing was this woman?!
She'd obviously knelt in front of Madam Quartley and Montez to gain sympathy!
She had only done it so that Madam Quartley and Montez would despise Yesseca even more! Madam Quartley had already grown to dislike Yesseca, therefore seeing this scene would obviously irritate her even more! And, Yuliana knew that Montez was fond of Yesseca, but how would he react if he saw his mother kneeling in front of Yesseca?
Qiana's move would definitely cause Montez to hold a grudge against Yesseca.
Yuliana couldn't help but admire Qiana's brilliance and audacity! Even though Yuliana knew that doing such a thing would benefit her, she just couldn't bring herself to kneel in front of Yesseca.
Yuliana assumed that Qiana stayed at Quartley Palace not only because of Montez.
This woman must be after Tremaine! So, Yuliana was waiting for Qiana to cause a commotion at Quartley Palace so she could watch the show! Even so, Qiana still hadn't caused any trouble even after spending such a long time in the Quartley Palace. Yuliana only noticed her accompanying
Montez every day.
This made Yuliana have second thoughts.
She wondered if she had misjudged her. Thus, Yuliana decided to talk to Qiana after dwelling on the matter for two days.
She had to see what this woman was up to!
Montez went to kindergarten that day, and Qiana was in the kitchen making pancakes.
She beautifully made the pancakes in cartoon shapes and bright colors.
She made them this way for Montez.
Madam Quartley noticed Qiana and complimented her as a wise and kind person. Qiana shyly smiled and said, "Madam Quartley, Montez is not eating much lately. I thought that children would be fond of such cartoons, hence I made them into these shapes, hoping that Montez would eat more."
Madam Quartley's impression of Qiana was reinforced.
This made her sigh.
How on earth could they be so different? Qiana was so gentle and soft, while Yesseca on the other hand was extremely vicious and cunning.
Yuliana was stunned for a moment and then said, "Madam Quartley, you are here too."
After that, Yuliana found another reason for her arrival. "Montez had gone to kindergarten. I thought Qiana was lonely, so I came here to chat with her."
Madam Quartley nodded. "Yuliana, you have to come often to accompany Qiana."
Yuliana smiled and said, "I thought so too."
Madam Quartley then pointed at Qiana's handmade cartoon pancakes and said, "Look, Yuliana, Qiana spent a lot of effort to specially make these for Montez, you should learn from Qiana too. When the time comes, you can also make some fresh food for Zorion, and I'm sure Zorion will love it."
Yuliana said yes, but she rolled her eyes in her heart!
Ha ha!
Prepare food on her own for Zorion to eat!
What a joke! She was the spoiled daughter of a wealthy family. How could a person like her, who had led a pampered life, prepare such things herself? If her husband was Tremaine, she might consider degrading herself to cook in the kitchen.
But her husband was Zorion! A fool! A good-for-nothing!
Madam Quartley also wanted Yuliana and Qiana to have a better relationship. After all, she was fond of them both, so she hoped they could build a good relationship.
She knew that she might interfere with the conversation between the two young people.
Madam Quartley said, "Qiana, Yuliana, you both continue. I have something to do first."
When Madam Quartley left, an undercurrent quietly started surging.
