"When she lived in the Quartley Palace, Tremaine was so fascinated by this vixen that he would forgo all common sense. He even defended her by shouting at me and Madam Tremaine. But when she left, I thought that things would be peaceful again. Now, even though she's dying, she's still managed to fool Tremaine."
"I suspect that the assumption that Tremaine is going to end his life for Yesseca is true! Maybe Yesseca had convinced him to do it in the first place! That's something that vixen would surely have done!"
Yuliana flushed red and continued, "On top of that Yesseca is all the way in Agaphen City while Tremaine is here in Nashaland. There's no way he could have heard about her condition! She must have told him about! She had planned this all along!"
Rorita's heart was already anxious with guilt, hearing Yuliana say that only made it worse.
She couldn't hold it in anymore, "I was the one who told him about Yesseca."
Yuliana couldn't believe what she had just heard.
She then said angrily, "What?! You told
Tremaine?!"
Rorita hung her down and said, "I knew that Tremaine would never be able to forgive himself if he found out after she died. I didn't want him to feel regret for the rest of his life. He won't be able to see her ever again, so I told him."
Yuliana was so angry, her lips trembled.
"Rorita, you stupid woman!"
She had always thought of Rorita as a smart and intelligent person, now it was clear to her that she a fool!
She thought it was a good idea to tell Tremaine!
She's just making a mess of things!
If anyone else learned that the woman her husband was going to die, they would be happy!
Rorita however, told Tremaine about it.
Yuliana was eager to scold Rorita.
But Rorita was still Tremaine's wife and came from a prominent family, so Yuliana held back.
Yuliana angrily returned to her room.
The moment she walked into her living room, she saw Zorion enjoying some pork chops.
Spotting Yuliana, Zorion picked up a pork chop and offered it to Yuliana, "Dear, have some pork chops. These were specially prepared by the chef. It's delicious."
Yuliana slapped Zorion's hand which caused the pork chop to fly from his hand.
She pointed her finger at Zorion and said, "Zorion, all you do is eat, eat, eat! That's all you seem to be able to do! You just stuff yourself silly! I think you're a pig!"
Zorion felt sad.
He whispered, 'But dear, these are really tasty. Try some."
"I'm not hungry." Yuliana replied angrily, "I've no appetite now that I've learned that your brother is resigning from his position as president!"
