My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



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.

Tremaine was taken aback.

"She went to the market to buy meat?"

Quartley Palace had everything. Even if she needed something, she could just get the servants to buy it for her. At worst, she could just head to the supermarket herself. Why had she gone all the way to the market?

As far as he knew, there was no market near Quartley Palace.

Why had she gone all the way there?

Tremaine started to feel suspicious.

"Yeah," Sheldon said. "Miss Cowell is really..."

Sheldon couldn't find the appropriate adjective after a long moment. He could only let out an awkward laugh and say, "How out of the ordinary."

Tremaine frowned.

Yesseca had been in Nashaland for long enough that she'd definitely gone out on her own to buy herself some things.

She would occasionally go to the supermarket to buy some baking materials or ingredients that she needed but Quartley Palace was out of. After all, young people only went to supermarkets nowadays.

Markets were reserved for older women or housewives. Why had Yesseca suddenly gone to the market?

Back at Quartley Palace.

Madam Quartley related everything to Tremaine angrily.

After that, she gave him an ultimatum. "Tremaine, if you try to brush me off with this matter and let Yesseca get away with this, I'll disown you! I can't watch my great-grandson fall prey to some woman's tricks like this!"

Tremaine was shocked by her words.

However, he suppressed his shock and said, "Grandma, we can't jump to conclusions without investigating matters."

Madam Quartley laughed disparagingly. "Fine. Go and do all the investigating you want and see whether you can help Yesseca get away with this!" Tremaine asked, "Where is Yesseca now?"Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Madam Quartley's smile grew colder. "I've locked her up in her bedroom. Don't worry, I haven't done anything to her yet. I wanted to wait for you to give the order! I want to see whether you'll choose your own son or her!"

Tremaine said no more. He called Qiana over first.

At this moment, Qiana was deathly pale. She looked like she was terminally ill.

Tremaine asked Qiana exactly what had happened.

าวน์

Qiana's lips quivered a few times, but she wasn't able to speak. Finally, she sucked in a few deep breaths before saying, "Mr. Tremaine, I wasn't able to fulfil my responsibilities as a mother. When Miss Cowell brought the broth over for Montez, it never even occurred to me that something would be wrong with it. I almost gave it to Montez. Fortunately, the dog accidentally had some instead of Montez. Otherwise, Montez would be the dead one! It's all my fault!"

When Madam Quartley heard what Qiana was saying, she shouted, "Qiana, don't be silly! This has nothing to do with you. This is all because of Yesseca!"

"Qiana, why would Yesseca suddenly prepare a bowl of broth for Montez?" Tremaine asked.

Qiana said, "Montez had just

recovered and needed to drink something nutritious. I made him some broth, but I'm not good in the kitchen and he didn't really like it Later on, Miss Cowell heard about this and said that she was good at making broth, so she'd make some for him personally."

"I thought that Miss Cowell was just being kind and agreed to it. Later on, when Miss Cowell brought the broth over, it was too hot, so I put it in the kitchen to let it cool down so that Montez could have it later. It just so happened that Montez mentioned wanting to have a dog, so bought him one."

"The dog probably ran into the kitchen to have some broth when it smelled its scent. However, it ended up... it ended up dying!"

At this point, Qiana's body trembled even more violently.

It was as if she'd thought of the possibility of Montez dying if not for the dog.
