My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Madam Quartley was livid.

She roared, "Qiana, how are you still not getting this? That dog didn't die because there was something wrong with it. It died because it drank the broth!"

Qiana froze.

She then started shaking her head desperately. Her face pale, she said, "That's impossible! Madam Quartley, it can't be! Miss Cowell personally brought the soup over here for Montez. I put it in the kitchen for it to cool down because it was too hot. How can there be something wrong with it?" Madam Quartley said firmly, "There has to be something wrong with the broth. The dog probably ran into the kitchen after catching its scent and jumped onto the counter to have some, but accidentally spilt it. Obviously, something's wrong with it, because the dog died after having some!"

Qiana staggered back.

She seemed to be scared out of her wits. She wanted to say something, but couldn't find the words.

The seconds ticked by.

Qiana's face was deathly pale as she stood there silently.

Madam Quartley's rage was growing with every passing second.

Even though all of this was based on her guesswork and it was what she'd told Qiana, she herself found it hard to believe that Yesseca would act so boldly and rashly.

The dog had died immediately after having the broth. It was obvious that it had been laced with an extremely potent poison.

If Montez were the one to have the broth, he'd be dead as well...

Madam Quartley couldn't help feeling more and more horrified.

Just then, the test results were out.

The dog's death was due to poisoning.

The poison had come from the broth.

When Qiana heard this, she crumpled to the floor, whereas Madam Quartley looked more enraged than ever before.

She roared, "Bring Yesseca Cowell here right now!

Yesseca was preparing dinner.

Tremaine would be back for dinner on this night, and she wanted to make him a nice meal.

Just as she was bustling around the kitchen, two soldiers suddenly barged in and grabbed her.

Yesseca was shocked.

Before she could make sense of what was happening, she'd been brought to Madam Quartley.

When she saw Madam Quartley, Yesseca was taken aback.

She knew that Madam Quartley did not like her, and was often upset with her.

However, this was the first time she had seen her so angry.

She looked absolutely murderous.

When she saw Yesseca being brought in, Madam Quartley walked over and gave her a tight slap without a single word. It rang out crisply.

Yesseca's face was turned to the side by the force of the slap.

Qiana sat on the floor, her face ashen as if she didn't even see Yesseca being slapped. At this moment, Yuliana arrived.

She almost laughed out loud at the sight of Yesseca being slapped.

This was the first time Yesseca had been beaten by Madam Quartley in Quartley Palace!

It felt great!

She wanted to see just how Yesseca would continue acting all high-and-mighty!

Well done!

Yuliana secretly hoped that Madam Quartley would deal out a few more blows so that Yesseca's face would swell up. It would be even better if she could beat Yesseca to death!

"Lock this woman up while we wait for Tremaine to deal with her!" Madam Quartley didn't continue slapping Yesseca as Yuliana wished.

After giving Yesseca a slap, Madam Quartley immediately gave the order for her to be locked up-

on the other hand, Yesseca came back to her senses.

She shouted, "Madam Quartley, why did you hit me? Why are you locking me up?"

"Why?" Madam Quartley glared at her furiously. "You can ask Tremaine when he's back!"

Before Yesseca could speak, the soldiers dragged her away.

Yuliana was delighted.

Although Madam Quartley hadn't continued slapping Yesseca, she knew that Yesseca was done for this time.

She dared to poison Montez!

She was too audacious!

Before this, she'd laced her cookies with things like this as well, but

those were only laxative

Montez to get diarrhoea, or at most, burn up a fever.

This time, she'd actually poisoned the broth.

A dog died right after having some!

If Montez ate it, he would surely die as well!

Yuliana couldn't help tutting.

Yesseca was simply too reckless.

Tremaine had been on her side the last two times, causing her to grow bolder. She was just doing whatever she liked, at this point!

Yuliana walked up to Madam Quartley.

She knew that Madam Quartley was

furious, but she deliberately stoked the fire and said, "Grandma, Yesseca's just too bold for words!

She managed to get away with it et

twice, which was why she thought that she could get away with anything. If we don't deal with her this time, Yesseca's probably going to get rid of everyone in Quartley Palace the next time around!"

Looking absolutely livid, Madam Quartley said, "If Tremaine doesn't deal with her this time, I'm going to disown him!"

Yuliana laughed to herself.

In fact, it didn't matter whether

Madam Quartley would disown Tremaine or not. There was no way

he would dare to let Yesseca off the hook this time.

After all, Yesseca had attempted to murder someone.

No matter how protective Tremaine was of her, there was no way he could just sit idly by and watch her murder his own son.

She really needed to be taught a lesson!

On the other hand, Madam Quartley glanced at Qiana.

Qiana was paralysed on the ground. Her face was devoid of any colour, and her shoulders were still shaking.

Madam Quartley couldn't bear to see it.

Although Qiana was kind to the point of stupidity, she truly was a good mother. She was willing to do anything for Montez.

She had a very good heart.

This was all Yesseca's fault, but Qiana was also at fault for being too trusting.

She could not blame Qiana too much.

Moreover, after this, Qiana would definitely be wary of Yessca.

Madam Quartley said to Yuliana, "Yuliana, go and talk to Qiana. Comfort her a little. She seems to be scared out of her wits."This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Yuliana was unwilling to. She had always been conceited. How would she know how to comfort someone?

However, she had no choice.

She said gently, "Qiana, don't be sad. Montez is fine, isn't he? Come on, get up, it's cold on the floor."

Actually, Yuliana was rather happy to see how heartbroken Qiana was.

She didn't like Qiana much, either.

It was just that she hated Yesseca more. She could only pick the lesser of two evils when it came to Yesseca and Qiana.

However, this did not mean that she had developed a good impression of Qiana.

If possible, Yuliana would rather both Yesseca and Qiana die.

After that, Yuliana was about to help Qiana up.

Qiana first looked at Yuliana in horror before throwing herself into Yuliana's arms.
