"Where have the both of you been?" Madam Quartley questioned.
Zorion said vaguely, "I just went for a walk with Qiana."
"A walk where?" Madam Quartley felt like something was wrong.
Zorion didn't say anything.
His expression kept changing as if she was struggling. After waiting for a long time, he suddenly looked straight at Madam Quartley and said, "Grandma, please let Ruth come back."
Madam Quartley raised her voice and said, "Zorion, what are you talking about?"
"Grandma, please let Ruth return to Quartley Palace. I pity Ruth, she's all alone and I feel sorry for her."
Madam Quartley was a little confused.
Ruth had been gone for so long, and her grandson had never said anything before. Why was he suddenly bringing her up again today?
When Zorion mentioned Ruth, Madam Quartley was very displeased.
Her face turned ugly and said, "Zorion, why did you suddenly mention that b*tch? She's not a good person! Don't mention her in front of me next time!"
Zorion said, "Grandma, Ruth is not a b*tch."
Madam Quartley was left with no words.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry because of her foolish grandson.
Madam Quartley waved her hand and said, "I don't care what she is. I won't let her come back to the Quartley Palace! Go to sleep, Zorion."
She didn't know what was going on with Zorion. She was going to ask Qiana what had happened!
Zorion still wanted to say something, but he was scared speechless by the Madam Quartley's stare.
He was still afraid of Madam Quartley.
Zorion could only go to his room. As he walked, he muttered, "Ruth is a good person. Ruth is really a good person. She's not a b*tch." Madam Quartley was about to lose her temper because of Zorion's words, but when she heard the end of his sentence, her anger turned into helplessness.
After Zorion disappeared, Madam Quartley looked at Qiana.
Before she could ask anything, Qiana ran to her side. She looked worried and said, "Madam Quartley, I have something to tell you."
"Wasn't it Zorion's birthday last night? When I had a little too much to drink, I wanted to go to the rooftop to get some fresh air, and I saw Zorion was also there. He looked like he had lost his soul."
"I felt like something wasn't right. It was his birthday, he should be happy. How could he be down and lost? So I asked him, but he just told me about a woman named Ruth. He said that he missed Ruth very much."
"I've heard about Ruth from the servants before. I know little about her so I tried to comfort him, but he didn't listen to me at all. I also heard from the servants that during this period of time, he hasn't slept but wandered around the Quartley Palace. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with Ruth."
"I originally wanted to tell you about it, but I was worried about your age and health so I didn't dare.
I was even afraid to tell Yuliana. I was worried that she would get angry if she knew about it."
"After thinking about it for a while, I decided to visit Ruth and see if I could untie the knot in Zorion's heart. After all, I am going to marry Mr. Tremaine. In the future, Zorion will be my brother-in-law, and it would also be my concern if Zorion is unhappy."
Although Madam Quartley had not figured out what had happened yet, she felt comfortable when she heard Qiana's words.
She was old and didn't have many years left to live. Zorion was a fool, and she had been worried that Tremaine's wife would bully Zorion in the future. Now that Tremaine was going to marry Qiana, there was nothing for her to worry about.
She was a kind-hearted woman.
"Madam Quartley, when I went to see Ruth today, do you know what I found?" Qiana paused before continuing.
Madam Quartley's heart was in her throat.
She continued to ask, "Qiana, what did you find?"
Qiana whispered in Madam Quartley's ear, "I found out that Ruth was pregnant, and her stomach was already a considerable size."
Madam Quartley was stunned.
In her memory, Ruth was still a thin and weak little girl. How could she be pregnant all of a sudden?
"Madam, I thought Zorion must have
been obsessed with Ruth because

he liked her Now that she's pregnant, thought Zorion would give up So tonight, I made the decision to take him to see Ruth. I wanted him to give up completely and live a good life with Yuliana, but I didn't know we would bump into you."
"Initially, I didn't plan to tell you, but since now you've bumped into us,
have you everything." Qiana

sighed faintly. "I don't know i6Zorion will give up this time." Content
Madam Quartley's mind was reeling with the thought Ruth's pregnancy, and she could not give a response.
Qiana then said casually, "But looking at Ruth's stomach, she should have been pregnant after leaving Quartley palace. Maybe she got together with another manas soon as she was kicked. Poor Zortion must still having feelings for her."
A white light flashed in Madam Quartley's mind.
Qiana's words always made her feel like something was amiss. Now, she had finally figured it out!
The reason why Ruth left Quartley palace was because she climbed into Zorion's bed!
And now, she was pregnant!
Madam Quartley suddenly raised her voice and said, "Qiana, how long has she been pregnan?"
Qiana replied with a number and said "I think she's been pregnant for about this long."
Upon hearing this, Madam Quartley's breathing fastened.
How could it be so coincidental?
Could it be!
"Qiana, take me to see Ruth right away!" said Madam Quartley.
She couldn't neglect the bloodline of the Quartley family! Even if it was a slim chance, she had to verify it!
After all, Zorion and Yuliana had been married for many years without children. She desperately wanted Zorion to have a descendant!
Ruth was sitting on the bed.
She looked at the fruits placed on the small table in front of her.
It was Qiana who brought it for her. They were all good quality fruits, but Ruth did not eat a single one of them.
She felt like something was wrong.
Qiana's sudden appearance had come out of nowhere.
However, no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't place her finger on why.
After all, if Qiana had any bad intentions, there was no need for her to go out of her way.
She and Qiana didn't know each other, and she couldn't exactly benefit Qiana, so what exactly did she want?
Ruth was lying on her bed.
She felt like she might be overthinking things.
Maybe it was because her pregnancy was making her sensitive. Maybe Qiana really came to see her because she was close to Zorion.
To top it off, Zorion had always told her that Qiana was a good person. She must have been biased against Qiana.
Just as Ruth was about to close her eyes and go to sleep, someone knocked on the door.
Ruth got up.
"Who is knocking at the door so late at night?" she thought.
She went to open the door and froze when she saw the person standing in front of her.
She had never expected this many inconveniences happening one after another today. First, it was Zorion, and now, it was Madam Quartley.
