She burst into tears. "Yuliana, this is all my fault. I'm terrified! I was going to give the broth to Montez, but fortunately, it was too hot so I told him to wait for a while before having some. Otherwise, my Montez would be gone by now!"
"My son! If he were to die, I'd die with him! How could I have been so careless?!"
Yuliana secretly curled her lips at Qiana's howling.
Montez was fine. Was there any need to howl like this?
When Qiana was done crying, she suddenly gave herself a slap.
While slapping herself, she cried, "It's all my fault! I deserve to die! I almost killed my Montez!"
Seeing Qiana slap herself, Yuliana was stunned.
When Madam Quartley saw this, she immediately ran over.
She grabbed Qiana's hand and roared, "Qiana, what are you doing? Stop!"
Qiana couldn't slap herself anymore.
Her face was covered in tears. "Madam Quartley, I don't deserve to live, I don't deserve to be a mother! I almost gave Montez the broth... I'm still trembling at the thought of it... Montez almost had the broth..."
Hearing this, Madam Quartley's heart twisted.
However, she forced herself to stay calm. "Qiana, whatever it is, Montez is fine now. Don't blame yourself too much. It's all Yesseca's fault, and I'll make sure that Tremaine gives you an appropriate answer for this!"
Tremaine received a call from Madam Quartley.
She asked him to return to Quartley Palace immediately.
He turned her down.
He said that he was busy and that he would be back later.
Madam Quartley lowered her voice and said, "Tremaine, no matter how important your work is, you have to come back to Quartley Palace right now."
Tremaine felt his heart jolt.
He immediately asked, "What is it?"
"Yesseca wanted to poison Montez!" "That's impossible!" Tremaine said immediately.
Madam Quartley suddenly raised her voice. "How is it impossible? Why are you so trusting of that woman, Tremaine? The truth is right in front of your eyes! Yesseca Cowell tried to poison Montez! Get back here right now and I'll show you proof!"
Tremaine asked Sheldon to send him to Quartley Palace.
Along the way, he kept urging Sheldon to speed up.
No matter how speedily Sheldon drove, he still had to stop at a red light.
Tremaine looked at the traffic light anxiously. Sheldon wanted to appease him and chatted with him casually.
"Mr. Tremaine, Preslie called me today and told me something interesting. Do you know it is?"
Tremaine didn't answer.
He wasn't in the mood for this.
Sheldon continued, "She said that Miss Cowell had done to the market to buy some meat."
It was common for normal housewives to go shopping at the market, but with Yesseca's current identity, it was a rare occurrence.
