"Zorion." Tremaine's voice was low.
Only then did Zorion notice Tremaine.
He immediately greeted, "Hi Tremaine."
Tremaine glanced at Zorion and exclaimed, "You were with Qiana just now."
"How did you know, Tremaine?" Zorion was surprised.
Tremaine did not answer, but asked, "Zorion, what did she say to you?"
Zorion was about to speak when he suddenly closed his mouth.
Although he was stupid, he valued his promise. Since he had promised Qiana to keep it a secret, he would keep it a secret.
Zorion answered vaguely, "Qiana didn't say anything. She just told me that the weather today was really good."
Tremaine smirked.
As his big brother, he really didn't even know how to lie.
Still, he didn't want to make things difficult for Zorion.
Tremaine looked out of the window and exclaimed, "The weather really is nice today."
Zorion followed Tremaine's eyes and looked around him, then he was flustered.
Only then did he realize that the weather was not good.
It was so gloomy that it seemed like it was going to rain.
Zorion laughed dryly and didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Tremaine did not say much and turned to leave.
Tremaine walked out of the Quartley Palace.
When they got outside, they could feel the gloomy weather, which was a sign that a storm was coming.
Tremaine looked up at the sky with a thoughtful look on his face.
In fact, he had heard all the conversation between Qiana and Zorion.
Qiana was deliberately guiding Zorion.
Tremaine was so smart that he could tell what was going on.
But why did this woman do that?
What was her purpose?
Tremaine's eyes darkened slightly.
If he wanted to know, he had to let things continue to develop like this.
It was only after the disguise had been peeled off layer by layer that he could see the truth.
Tremaine looked away.
For some reason, he suddenly had a strong premonition in his heart.
He was getting near to the truth.
In the blink of an eye, the night had arrived.
Yuliana was putting on a facial mask in the bedroom.
While she was doing that, she was thinking about how to deal with Ruth.
Now, Madam Quartley had clearly told her not to look for Ruth. If she still went, she would be unhappy.
Could she bride Ruth's servants though?
It was impossible.
This time, the servants that Madam Quartley had sent over to take care of Ruth were all old servants. They had been serving Madam Quartley for many years and were all her servants. Yuliana did not want to take this risk.
What should she do now?
Yuliana frowned.
She had to find a way to prevent Ruth from giving birth to the child as soon as possible.
Yuliana didn't want a b*stard to stay in the Quartley Palace.
While Yuliana was thinking hard, Zorion was also thinking about something.
He wanted to wait for Yuliana to fall asleep first before he went to look for Ruth.
But for some reason, Yuliana didn't sleep that night.
Zorion couldn't help saying, "Dear, why aren't you asleep yet?"
After being reminded by Zorion, Yuliana realized that it was already 10 o'clock.
She needed her beauty sleep and was not used to sleeping late.
Then, she applied a little more essence on her face before lying down on the bed.
Zorion was lying on the sofa.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
On the other side, Yuliana turned off the light and the bedroom instantly fell into darkness.
Zorion also opened his eyes.
He was waiting for Yuliana to fall asleep.
When he waited, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind.
How did Ruth get pregnant all of a sudden?
Who was the child's father?
Was the child's father good to Ruth?
Why didn't he see the child's father?
When Ruth came to the Quartley Palace, why didn't the child's father come with her?
The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt.
In the end, Zorion stopped himself from overthinking.
He always tends to overthink.
He couldn't even think straight now.
As soon as he thought about it, he felt a sharp pain in his head.
The night was getting darker and darker.
Zorion heard Yuliana's breathing.
"Dear," Zorion whispered.
She did not respond.
"Dear, are you asleep?" Zorion called her again.
There was still no response.
Zorion got up quietly.
Ten minutes later, Zorion came to Ruth's bedroom.
He gently knocked on the door.
The light in Ruth's bedroom was also turned off, but she had not fallen asleep.
After entering the palace, she was full of thoughts. Even if she knew that she was pregnant and needed to go to bed early, she still couldn't fall asleep and kept tossing and turning in bed. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
When she heard the knock on the door, she thought it was a servant.
She turned on the light in the bedroom and got up to open the door.
Ruth was surprised when she saw Zorion.
"Mr... Mr. Zorion." After a while, Ruth squeezed out a sentence.
Zorion smiled at Ruth and showed all his excitement on his face.
"Ruth, I'm here to see you." Zorion exclaimed, "My wife and Madam Quartley didn't want me to meet you. Hence, I came to see you secretly at night. Ruth, don't you think I'm smart?"
Zorion smiled happily, but Ruth felt that his smile was an eyesore to her.
It hurt her heart.
He was such a silly man.
He didn't know anything. Hence, he could still laugh so happily at this moment.
But it was also a good thing to be stupid.
One could only feel pain if he or she was smart enough to understand everything that was happening around them.
"Mr. Zorion, it's very late. I'm going to bed. You should go to bed too," Ruth bit her lip and uttered.
Although she also wanted to see Zorion and talk to him, she knew that she couldn't do that.
If someone else found out about it, it would cause another disturbance.
However, Zorion did not leave.
It wasn't easy for him to sneak out to meet Ruth that night. How could he just leave with a few words?
Zorion's eyes fell on Ruth's belly. "Ruth, your belly is really big. I thought you were sick and that your stomach was going to explode. I was scared to
death."
After a pause, Zorion changed the
subject. "Ruth, why didn't you come to the Quartley Palace with the
child's father? I haven't seen himet
before I also want to see what your husband looks like." Ruth's heart was stabbed. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Thousands of swords pierced her heart and bones.
The child's father...
How could she tell him the child's father is right in front of her?
She just couldn't bring herself to tell him the truth.
She was born to be a humble servant.
It was destined that it was impossible for her to be with Zorion, the eldest son of the Quartley family.
Butthat night, something unexpected happened.
"Why are you so quiet, Ruth?" Zorion couldn't help asking when he saw that Ruth didn't answer.
Ruth lowered her head, her eyelashes trembling. "He has to work, that's why he didn't come. Please stop asking, Mr. Zorion."
Zorion still asked, "Does he treat you well?"
"Yes...yes he does."
Zorion smiled again, but this time
his smile was a little awkward. There was a trace of bitterness in his voice that he didn't even notice. "I knew he would treat you good. Ruth is such a
good girl. Anyone who marries her will definitely be Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
good to her."
