Chapter 2076
Yuliana wondered what Qiana was up to, hurtling herself at a wall.
Did she really feel so wronged that she wanted to take her own life?
Yuliana did not think that Qiana was someone like that.
She was an extremely cunning woman and she had plenty of tricks up her sleeve. She'd come to Quartley Palace to drive Yesseca away and replace her as Tremaine's wife. Since she had yet to achieve her goal, how could she possibly end her own life?
However, to say this was all for show...
Qiana had truly almost killed herself.
After thinking things over for a long time, Yuliana gasped.
She felt that Qiana probably was putting on a show. She'd also truly thrown herself at the wall with the intention of taking her own life, otherwise, Tremaine would've seen right through her.
She'd taken a huge risk, but at least it'd give Tremaine the impression that she was unyielding.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
This woman was really amazing.
Yuliana was secretly pleased.
Faced with such a cunning woman, Yesseca would be ruined.
Yesseca had already been stupid enough to lace Montez's broth with poison, which was more than enough to make Tremaine give up on her. With a cunning opponent like Qiana around, Yesseca was as good as dead.
Tremaine came to the bedroom where Yesseca was locked up.
Yesseca was standing in front of the window.
When she saw Tremaine, she glared at him.
When Tremaine first told her about keeping her locked up in the bedroom, she did not think much about it.
Because she'd been completely occupied by Montez and the poisoned broth.
After one night, however, she'd come to realise something. She was trapped here, and she couldn't even call anyone.
Tremaine was holding her against her will.
He was actually suspecting her!
He must've felt that she poisoned the broth.
Otherwise, why would he imprison her like this?
For a moment, Yesseca's heart was filled with indignation.
At this moment, she didn't speak when she saw Tremaine. She looked at him with eyes filled with grief.
Tremaine's breath hitched when he met Yesseca's eyes.
He saw her anger, sadness, and her questioning.
At this moment, he suddenly had the impulse to wrap his arms around her without a care for everything else. He wanted to make the pain and sorrow in her eyes go away.
But in the end, he still suppressed his impulse.
What happened to Montez was no small matter.
This was not the time to be emotional.
Tremaine said hoarsely, "Yesseca, I have a few things to ask you. Answer me honestly."
Yesseca didn't say anything and continued to stare at Tremaine.
Tremaine said, "You made cookies for Montez twice, and he was sick both times. Why did you continue to make broth for him instead of keeping your distance?"
"Also, there's more than enough meat in Quartley Palace. Why did you go all the way to the market to get some when it's so far away from here? You've never been to the market, so why did you suddenly decide to go there?"
"Since you were just going to the market, why did you bring Preslie along?"
At Tremaine's questions, the sorrow in Yesseca's eyes deepened,
He was really treating her like she was the culprit!
How dare he interrogate her like this!
She had never thought that Tremaine would interrogate her like this and treat her like a criminal!
Yesseca was almost drowning with sadness.
She looked at Tremaine and said, "Are you suspecting me, Tremaine? Don't you know me well enough when we've been together for so long? How dare you suspect me?!"
How could she harm Montez?
She would rather poison herself than poison Montez!
Tremaine's voice became even hoarser. "Yesseca, I'm not suspecting you. It's just that really are doubts about you, so please answer my questions." "What if I don't want to?" Yesseca raised her voice.
Tremaine fell silent.
If this were anyone else, he had countless ways to make them answer him. However, if Yesseca refused to answer... Tremaine really didn't know what to do.
He was not willing to hit or scold her.
The room fell into silence.
It was unbearable.
After waiting for a long time, Yesseca finally broke the silence.
She said, "Okay, I'll answer you!"
Tremaine was doubting her, wasn't he? She'd answer each and every one of his questions to see what else he had to ask!
"Firstly, the cookies made Montez
get diarrhoea because I put milk in
them and Montez is lactose intolerant. However, he's fine with pork, and he needed the nutrition. That's why I made him the broth!"
UMS
"Secondly, I went to the market
because I wanted to get the freshest meat available for the broth. The
meat at Quartley Palace is good, but it had to be frozen before being 1501 imported. That's why I went to the market to get a fresh batch
"I invited Preslie to go with me because it happened to be the weekend and she'd asked me out the night before. Since I didn't time to go shopping with her, I invited her to the market with me. Even though it was only for a short time, at least we could still chat."
After that, Yesseca let out a cold laugh. "That's my answer. Are you satisfied, Tremaine?"
"Yesseca, are you sure that what you said is true?" Tremaine said.
Hearing Tremaine's words, Yesseca was furious.
"What do you mean by that? If it's not the truth, then am I lying? Why would I lie to you?!"
In stark contrast with Yesseca's angry appearance, Tremaine looked exhausted.
He had always been bad-tempered. If Yesseca were to keep yelling at him like this, he would normally already have gotten mad.
This time, however, he didn't.
"Yesseca, why have you been going out so frequently lately?" Tremaine didn't answer Yesseca's question. Instead, he asked her another one.
Yesseca was lost for words.
She'd been going out frequently lately...
It was true, and she had a reason for it...
However, the reason was...
It was hard for her to explain.
