NovelEnglishRuth looked up at Tremaine, her face turning paler by the minute "Mr. President, it was all my fault. It was
because of my own greed that madehurt everyone, including myself!" Yesseca's eyes widened in disbelief.
She never expected things to turn out this way!
Ruth admitted to taking advantage of Zorion.
Yesseca then asked anxiously, "Ruth, are you certain you're telling the truth? Is someone threatening you? Are
they forcing you to hide the truth about this matter? Don't be afraid. You can tell us everything! Please don't be
afraid!"
Ruth sniffed and looked at Yesseca. "Thank you so much for helping me, Miss Cowell. With you here, no one
would dare to threaten me. | just can't stand the torment from my own conscience, so | feel like | have to tell
everyone the truth. Now that things have escalated, there's bound to be a very thorough investigation about
this. It would be much better forto tell you the truth rather than to trouble everyone with an investigation."
Yesseca's head buzzed.
She looked at Ruth with a look of astonishment in her eyes.
Tremaine kept quiet.
He was currently thinking about something.
As for Madam Quartley, she becvery angry when she heard Ruth's admission of guilt. She slammed the
crutch in her hand heavily onto the ground. "You shameless maid. You cto the Quartley family with Yuliana
and served as her personal servant. Yuliana has always treated you well. How could you do such a thing? How
could you ruin Yuliana's relationship with her husband!"
After Madam Quartley was done speaking, Yuliana added, "Ruth, why did you do such a thing? You've broken my
heart. You, my dearest servant, have betrayed me. My beloved husband had relations with another woman. |
cannot bear this, I'd rather die!" Yuliana then burst into tears.
Madam Quartley's heart ached for Yuliana.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe held Yuliana's hand tightly. "Yuliana, don't cry. This was all my fault, | haven't been taking good care of you.
It was my fault."
Yuliana's eyes were full of tears. "Madam Quartley, now that Zorion has done such a thing, how can | face the
Quartley family from now on? | can't even look at my own husband. How could he have slept with my own
servant? How could he do this me? I'm afraid that all the other servants won't respect
Madam Quartley looked at her seriously. "Yuliana, don't worry. Those things will never happen. You will be the
most respected woman in the Quartley family. If anyone in the Quartley family even dares to disrespect you, |
will kick them out immediately!" Yuliana was comforted to hear Madam Quartley say that.
She didn't actually care whether Zorion slept with another woman or not.
She had no feelings for him after all.
What she was worried about was losing Zorion's favor if he kept sleeping with other women. If he suddenly
began to develop feelings for another woman instead of her, she would eventually lose control over him, and this
would spell the end of her domineering days in the Quartley family.
Madam Quartley then said to Tremaine, "Tremaine, you heard what this woman has done! In Nashaland, the
punishment for infidelity is jail time! She also ruined your brother's marriage, you, the president of Nashaland!
Her punishment should be doubled! Tremaine didn't respond.
He looked at Ruth. "Ruth, if you're certain you are telling the truth and won't refute it, then I will deal with it
accordingly."
Without hesitating, she replied, "I wouldn't dare to lie to you. Everything I've said is true."
Tremaine's eyes filled with anger.
He looked over at Yuliana again and spoke with sdisdain, "Yuliana, what do you think about this? If what
your servant says is true, | will have to send her directly to prison. The laws of Nashaland require her to undergo
a fair trial. There must be evidence to the case to justify sending her to prison. I'm afraid you will have to
cooperate with the investigation."
Yuliana felt her heart jolt.
She wasn't sure why, but she found the way Tremaine spoke quite strange. Yuliana pretended to struggle.
She then walked over to Ruth and said, "Ruth, | never expected you to do such a thing. You have been my
personal servant ever since | was a child. We grew up together. After was married into the Quartley family, you
calong with me. Although | am your master and you are my servant, we were more like sisters. Ruth, you
have truly broken my heart!"
"When | found you that night in his bed, | couldn't wait to kill you, because you had betrayedwith the man |
loved! But | thought about this all night long. | thought about all the things we did together as children. Ruth, |
still can't bear to do this to you!" Yuliana turned towards Tremaine and pleaded, "Tremaine, Ruth has looked after
her fend for herself instead!"
Madam Quartley becanxious when she heard Yuliana say this.
She added, "Yuliana, | know you mean well, but you can't forgive this servant so easily. She must serve for her
crin prison, it is inevitable!"
Yuliana shook her head and said,
ooo
"Madam Quartley, | don't think she did this on purpose. She couldn't help herself. She is still so young She would
be ruined in jail. It would be better to drive her out of the Quartley Palace instead. Madam Quartley, please, for
my sake, please let her go."
"Yuliana, are you sure you want to do this?!"
Yuliana nodded. "Madam Quartley, I've thought about this all of last night. | have already made up my mind."
Although Madam Quartley was unwilling to do so, she had no other choice as Yuliana was her grandson's wife.
She sighed. "Yuliana, you are very kind. It is unfortunate that such a kind person like you has such a scheming
servant!"
Everything Yuliana said didn't just startle Madam Quartley but Yesseca as well.
In Yesseca's opinion, Yuliana had never been a good person. But she was pleading for Ruth's sake right now. She
did seem to still have conscience after all.
Ruth was also surprised by this.
Yesseca's mind was a mess, she didn't have tto think about what was going on.
"Ruth, do you have anything else to say?" Tremaine asked with his deep voice. "Once you leave the Quartley
Palace, I'm afraid you won't get the chance to say anything again."
Ruth's eyelashes trembled as she said, "Mr. President, | have nothing more to say. The fact that Madam Quartley
is willing to forgiveis already the best treatment | could ever receive here. Thank you very much. Please
allowto leave the Quartley Palace." Tremaine pursed his thin lips as he blinked.
