My Heart only Beats for You

Yuliana looked at her hands.

They really were quite beautiful.

So slender and fair.

Yuliana snorted.

Regardless, Zorion was not worthy of touching her hands! Zorion wasn't worthy of holding her hands! The only person who could was someone like Tremaine! Zorion reached his hand out again, but Yuliana slapped it away harshly.

She used so much strength then his hand turned red immediately.

"Mr. Zorion!" Ruth exclaimed.

Yuliana glared at Ruth.

Ruth was about to step forward and check on his hand, but she stopped at Yuliana's glare.

Zorion was in so much pain that he feared up.

He was tall and handsome, but also had a certain childish charm about him. The sight of tears filling his deep-set eyes made one feel sorry for him.

Yuliana didn't feel that way at all, though.

She sneered to herself that he was a fool, a complete idiot! What a fool! A stupid fool! He should just die from the pain! "Yuliana, why did you hit me? It really hurt," Zorion held his hand up and said.

Yuliana pointed directly at Zorion's nose. "You deserve it, you fool. Why didn't you die from that virus?!" Rage washed over her as she spoke.

Tremaine had made things clear enough with her earlier! If Zorion had not survived the virus, she would probably already be with Tremaine! It was all this fool's fault! She wished that he would just drop dead! Drop dead already! Zorion was taken aback at her words.

He said blankly, "Yuliana, you wantdead?" "Of course I want you dead! I loathe the sight of you!" Yuliana said venomously.

Her spiteful words pierced both Zorion and Ruth's hearts.

Ruth felt hurt and angry.

Though Yuliana had never viewed Zorion as her husband, he was still a member of the Quartley family. He was a president's elder brother, an honourable figure! How could he suffer such humiliation?! Ruth wanted to stop Yuliana.

She did not want her to scold Zorion like this.

She could tell that Zorion was very upset because of her.

She did not dare say anything, though.

She could only lower her head and clench her fists tightly.

She was just a maid.

She had no right to say anything! She could only do her best to suppress her emotions.

Zorion suddenly mumbled, "Yuliana, I don't believe that you wantdead. You were the one who pulledout of the darkness. You savedwhen I was going to die!" Yuliana found this ridiculous. She had saved him? That she was the one who saved Zorion! Was he referring to when she had howled for the sake of keeping up appearances? Yuliana sneered. "I meant every word, Zorion. I never wanted to save you, and I want you to drop dead this very moment! An idiot like you is a waste of space!" Yuliana had always hated Zorion, but she had never said such outrageous things. She was just too emotional because of Tremaine's words.

She could not stop her hatred for Zorion from growing.

Zorion was an obstacle to her bright future.

Zorion took a step back.

His face was as pale as a sheet of paper.

After a while, he rubbed his eyes. "I must have done something wrong to make you hate me. I need to go think about what I did. I need to really think..." Zorion then headed towards his bedroom.

He wobbled unsteadily, as if he would fall at any moment.

Ruth was just about to follow him when Yuliana's voice rang out. "Stop right there, Ruth!" Ruth stopped.

She turned around.

Yuliana looked at her oddly. "Ruth, I have something to ask you." Ruth suddenly found it hard to breathe.

She felt very uneasy.

Quartley Palace was a huge place.

Aside from the bedrooms on the third floor, there were also guest rooms, a lounge, gym and dining room.

Yuliana and Ruth were in the living room.

Yuliana was seated, while Ruth stood in front of her.

From the moment that they had cinto the living room, Yuliana had just appraised Ruth without saying a word. Ruth felt nervous.

She raised her head. "Madam Yuliana, do you want scoffee? I'll go get you some." "I don't need to drink coffee," Yuliana said. "I just want to ask you something, Ruth. When exactly did you get infected by the WT virus? I've known you all my life, but I didn't know that you got the virus before."

Yuliana had been wanting to ask Ruth about this for a long time. However, Madam Quartley had been too excited over Zorion's survival that she constantly wanted to chat with Yuliana. Yuliana had not had the energy to speak with Ruth. Ruth's eyelashes fluttered.

She stuttered and stammered, unable to answer the question.

Yuliana suddenly raised her voice. "Tellwhen you got infected with the WT virus!"

Ruth was so frightened that she blurted out, "Madam Yuliana, I've never gotten the WT virus. Hiedm because knew you wouldn't take care of Mr. Zorion. I figured that someone would have to take care of him, so I lied about having had the Virus before." Yuliana's gaze turned sharp. It was as if she could see right through Ruth. Ruth trembled.

She had been a lowly servant ever since she was a child.

This was something that had been instilled in her since she was young.

Being fearful of her master was second nature to her.

"Ruth, I had no idea that you were so worried about me." Yuliana stood up.

She walked over to Ruth and tilted her head up. "But what I want to know is whether you're thinking ofor that fool, Zorion." Ruth did not dare to respond.

Yuliana lowered her voice. "Also, why were you so nervous when I hit Zorion? Don't tellyou're in love with him." Ruth's head began to buzz.

She paled. "Madam Yuliana, I'm not! Mr. Zorion's my master. How would I dare to fall in love with him? I'm really not!" She was just a maid! What right did a maid have to be in love with their master?

Yuliana looked at Ruth's pale face, then let her go. "Don't be so nervous. I was just joking with you. It'd be great for my plans if you were really in love with that fool, though." She smiled scornfully. "I guess it's impossible that you'd be in love with him, anyway. You might be nothing but a maid, but you probably wouldn't fall for a fool like him!" Ruth did not respond.

Her eyelashes fluttered even harder.

Yuliana waved her hand. "Okay, you can leave." X RULE #1 choose married women "Yes, Madam Yuliana." Ruth bowed her head.

After walking out of the living room, she hurried to her bedroom.

She closed the door and leaned against it, breathing heavily. Tremaine drove over to Yesseca's apartment.

They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
