My Heart only Beats for You

She raised her voice, "How can you say that? That's impossible. How could we let this happen to an innocent girl

like you? Zorion owes you an explanation."

Ruth shook her head worriedly, "Yesseca, don't say that. I'm just a maid. Mr. Zorion doesn't need to givean

explanation."

Yesseca found this very frustating.

From all her previous conversations with Ruth, Yesseca recognized that Ruth had very low self-esteem due to her

role as a maid.

It made sense for her to be like this, but now that this had happened to her, why was Ruth still feeling so inferior

just because of her status as a servant? She should be seeking justice for herself! Yesseca raised her voice and

said, "Ruth, just because you're a maid doesn't mean that you're inferior to them. | used to be a maid, but I'm

with Tremaine now. Ruth, you need to stop thinking like this." Ruth replied bitterly, "Yesseca, your situation is

very different to Mr. Zorion's. You are unmarried, Mr. Zorion has a wife."

Yesseca held her breath.

She had forgotten about Yuliana.

Although Yuliana was a hateful woman, she was still Zorion's wife.

If Zorion admitted what he did to Ruth, then Yuliana would certainly take advantage of this!

Although she hated Yuliana very much, since her husband had had relations with another woman, Yuliana was

the actual victim here!

For a moment, Yesseca was speechless.

Ruth suddenly bowed down to Yesseca and pleaded, "Yesseca, everyone has a different opinion on this. If you

really want to help me, don't ask Mr. Zorion to givean explanation. Just let this end." Yesseca quickly helped

Ruth up.

She then said, "Don't say that. I've taken note of everything you've told me. I'll think about this carefully."

Ruth stared at her, "Yesseca, | know you're doing this for my own good, but even though you think so, all you're

really doing is causingto suffer."

Yesseca felt conflicted when Ruth told her this.

She couldn't say anything to her after being told this.

Yesseca had no choice but to say, "I understand. Don't worry. | won't give you a hard time. Get srest and |

have to go now."

"Yesseca, thank you." Ruth said gratefully.

Yesseca waved her hand at her. "What's there to thankfor? I'm just doing what | should be doing."

When she reached the door, Yesseca suddenly stopped in her tracks.

She turned around, looked at Ruth and asked, "Ruth, do you hate Zorion?"

Ruth answered immediately, "Why would | ever hate Mr. Zorion? He's innocent, like a child. He himself probably

has no idea about anything that happened tonight. | don't hate Mr. Zorion at all." Yesseca fell silent as she heard

this.

She had asked her this on purpose to see if Ruth actually hated Zorion.

Now she knew that Ruth actually loved Zorion.

Because if she didn't, she would have hated his guts for what he did to her.

But there was nothing she could do even if he loved her back. Zorion had a wife.

Yesseca felt extremely conflicted about this.

After Yesseca left, Yuliana took Madam Quartley to Ruth's room.

Yuliana kept crying the entire time. She kept lamenting at how shameless Ruth was and how she had seduced

Zorion.

"Oh Madam Quartley." Yuliana burst

into tears. "It was all my fault, I've

been too kind to her. Ruth is my servant and. I've always been really good to Ker. She had gotten very close

e to Zorion but I didn't think too much about it. | thought that since she was my closest servant, she wouldn't do

anything behind my back because | treat her so well after all. | never expected Ruth to be shameless!"

Yuliana did not love Zorion.

But no matter how much she hated it, she was Zorion's wife.

She had also given up the idea of getting closer to Tremaine. Zorion was the only person she could rely on in the

Quartley Palace.

Yuliana wouldn't stand for this.

This was a massive insult to her.

She'd never really bothered to sleep with Zorion ever since they got married. This was because she'd never

wanted to do it with him. Even so, the reality was that she'd never had intimate relations with Zorion! But now a

maid had taken Zorion's virginity!

Even though Yuliana didn't have any feelings for

Zorion, this was enough to drive her crazy.

If Tremaine hadn't found out about this, she would have killed Ruth herself.

So she couldn't kill Ruth herself now for risk of getting caught herself. That's when she thought of Madam

Quartley.

She knew that Madam Quartley hated women who would crawl into men's bed unannounced over anything else.

She was going to take advantage of Madam Quartley's anger to kill Ruth.

Madam Quartley was furious after Yuliana told her what had happened.

She then said, "Yuliana, how could you have such a shameless villain around you? You never even noticed it

once!"

Yuliana wiped her eyes, "Madam

Quartley, I've been too kind to her. You know me, I've always been soft-hearted and never doubtful of anyone. |

was so naive to think that no one would take advantage of my kindness like this!"

The both of them then arrived at the door to Ruth's room.

Madam Quartley ordered the soldier to open the door, which he did immediately.

Madam Quartley and Yuliana went into the room.

As soon as Yuliana walked in, she pointed at Ruth and said, "Madam Quartley, do you see her over there? That's

the shameless b*tch. Look at her face. She's a terrible person. She intends to take advantage of us!" Madam

Quartley was so angry, she couldn't speak.

She then took a deep breath and said, "Slap her!"

Madam Quartley was an old-fashioned woman. She would resort to old-fashioned punishments for women who

climbed into men's beds.

An old servant, who had served Madam Quartley for many years, immediately stepped forward and started

slapping Ruth's face.

Soon, Ruth's face had been beaten so badly that her cheeks were swollen and blood was running down her

mouth.

Yuliana was delighted to see her like this.

She did this to maintain her image with Madam Quartley, she would have done this herself otherwise.

Ruth was such a shameless person.

She had been with her for so many years, but she had gone and done such a shameless thing. If Ruth wouldn't

be punished with death, Yuliana would kill her herself.

The soldier outside heard the slapping sounds from inside the room.

He had a bad feeling about what was happening.

Although this wasn't easy for him to

do anything, Madam Quartley and Yuliana who were powerful members of the Quartley family and they were

beating up a maid. Tremaine had ordered him to watch over Ruth. If anything happened to Roth, it would be his

responsibility.
