My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



She was overthinking things.

Preslie said, "Let's just act like I didn't say anything, then. I have to correct you on one thing, though. I don't think that Qiana is a good person. When she begged you the other day, I felt that she was up to no good."

Yesseca said, "You're wrong, Preslie. Qiana is a good person. You must have misunderstood her."

"No, I didn't. She's a two-faced b*tch, and she's up to no good," Preslie couldn't help saying.

These words made Yesseca a little unhappy.

Her face fell slightly. "Preslie, you're my best friend, and Qiana's my friend as well. I don't want one of my friends to badmouth another friend of mine. Qiana's really not the way you think she is. Can you please not talk about her like that?"

Preslie's heart sank.

Yesseca had never been so blunt with her even when she'd badmouthed Qiana previously. Why was she...

It seemed that Qiana was very important to Yesseca.

Preslie felt conflicted.

She still felt that Qiana was up to no good and she was afraid that Qiana would get Yesseca into trouble.

Yesseca was not stupid, but she was too kind and simple-minded.

Preslie moved her lips, but she didn't say anything else.

Since Yesseca had already made herself clear, what else could she say?

Yesseca returned to Quartley Palace.

She started bustling around the kitchen the moment she arrived, preparing the materials for dinner.

While Yesseca was busy, Qiana returned with a puppy in her arms.

She'd bought it from a pet store.

What was the reason for this? After Yesseca had gone to the supermarket, Qiana and Montez had had a conversation.

Qiana told Montez that she'd had a dog when she was younger, and it was adorable. It would whimper for her attention and even flip onto its back so that she could rub its belly.

Montez was so envious when he heard that.

He couldn't help saying, "Mummy, I want one, too."

Qiana immediately said, "I'll get one for you right now."

Montez couldn't believe it.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Was his mother buying him a dog just like that?

"Really?" Montez asked.

Qiana smiled. "Of course! What's so hard about getting a dog? As long as you're happy, I'll do anything for you."

Montez was moved by such words.

He couldn't help saying, "Thanks, Mummy. You're the best."

Montez was overjoyed by the puppy.

He refused to let go of the puppy and couldn't stop himself from petting it all over.

After playing with the puppy for about an hour, Yesseca came.

She had a delicious-smelling bowl of broth with her.

Her heart ached and she couldn't help feeling guilty at the sight of Montez.

In such a short time, Montez had lost a lot of weight and looked pale.

It was all her fault.

"Yesseca." Montez stopped petting the dog when he saw her.

Yesseca forced out a smile. "Montez, are you alright?"

Montez nodded.

She looked at the puppy and asked, "Where did this puppy come from? It's adorable."

Montez said, "My mummy bought this for me."

Qiana said, "Montez said that he wanted a dog, so I got him one."

"It's truly adorable," Yesseca said.

After that, she placed the broth on the table and said, "Montez, I made you some broth. Why don't you have some?"

"Thank you, Yesseca."

Yesseca had a lot to say to Montez, but she didn't know where to start.

She wondered when things had changed between her and Montez.

They used to be so close, but things were awkward between them at the moment.

Yesseca didn't want to hang around.

She said, "I'll get going, then. Remember to have some broth."

After Yesseca left, Qiana acted like she was going to get the broth for Montez, but she let out a yelp when she touched the bowl.

Montez was shocked.

He immediately walked over to her. "Mummy, what's wrong?"

She said, "It's nothing. It's just that the broth is a little hot. Let's leave it for a moment before having some, okay?"

Montez agreed.

She then got a pair of gloves from

the kitchen and put them on. She said, "I take this into the kitchen for

now. We don't want the puppy's fur to get into the broth, do we?

After that, she took the bowl into the kitchen.

Once she was in the kitchen, Qiana looked around and quickly took out a tiny paper bag from her pocket.

She sprinkled the powder into the broth.

When she was done, she threw the paper bag into the shredder and flushed the remnants down the drain. She didn't go see Montez after leaving the kitchen.

She tracked down a servant and said, "Tell Madam Quartley that Montez is doing well today. He's really happy today. Let her know so that she won't be so worried about him."

The servant agreed. Qiana then walked into the living room.

Montez was still playing with the puppy.

Qiana smiled and said, "Montez, looks like I made the right choice by getting this puppy. Look at how happy you are."

Montez smiled and said, "Yes, I love it."

He'd been in a bad mood recently. The puppy definitely cheered him up.

"Mummy, let's give the puppy a name!" he said after a while.

Qiana agreed.

With a smile, she asked, "What do you want to name it?"

Montez thought about it and said, "How about Linda? It sounds like a cute name."

"That's great." Qiana smiled in agreement.

As she spoke to Montez, she watched the stairs out of the corner of her eye. Soon, she saw a figure.

Qiana immediately told Montez, "Montez, looks like your great-grandmother's here." "Great-grandma, you're here." Montez looked over as well.

Sure enough, a figure appeared there.

Qiana said to Montez, "Montez, let's

go help her down. It's not convenient for her to walk up and down the stairs at her age. Since we know that she's here, we should help her out.

Montez agreed immediately.

Since he was going to help her, he couldn't hold on to the puppy.

Montez put the puppy down and walked over to the stairs.

He helped her down a few steps.

At first, Madam Quartley tried to brush him off. "No, no, it's fine. I can still move around on my own."
