Zorion immediately retorted, "But Ruth just said that she was pregnant."
Ruth was flustered.
The servant's words just now made her think that she could not lie anymore. Hence, she told the truth. She did not expect that there would be such a reversal.
Ruth was not good at lying. Therefore, she was speechless for a moment.
On the other hand, Madam Quartley was full of anger.
She already had a bad impression of Ruth. Hence, she assumed that it was Ruth's doing.
Although she was pregnant, she was still restless and wanted to seduce Zorion!
Otherwise, how could Zorion know that Ruth lived in such a remote place? Ruth must have tried to hook up with Zorion and told him that she was pregnant!
What was she trying to do?
She wanted to take over the family and become the Matriarch!
A hint of coldness flashed across Madam
Quartley's eyes.
Unfortunately, it was just wishful thinking.
She would never allow Ruth to take over the place.
Of course, considering that Ruth was pregnant, even if Madam Quartley was full of anger, she could only suppress it in her heart.
"Zorion, don't worry so much. Anyway, Ruth needs to take a good rest in the palace. I've sent someone to take care of her, so you don't have to join in the fun here." With this, Madam Quartley came over and took Zorion's hand.
She wanted to take Zorion away.
Zorion took his hand out from her grasp.
He uttered, "Then, I'll take care of Ruth here."
Madam Quartley's face was very grim. "Nonsense! With all the servants here, there's nothing you can do! Follow me back!"
Zorion didn't want to leave, but he hesitated because he had always listened to Madam Quartley's words. At this time, Ruth persuaded, "Mr. Zorion, please go back. I have someone to take care of me. You don't need to stay here."
Zorion hesitated for a moment and finally followed Madam Quartley.
When Zorion left, the baby in Ruth's belly moved more and more violently.
The little fellow kept kicking her little hands and feet, which made Ruth's belly swell.
However, Ruth slowly closed her eyes. Her lips and face were as pale and colorless as before.
After being dragged away by Madam Quartley, Zorion was scolded. He was also warned that he could never see Ruth again.
Seeing that Madam Quartley was so angry, Zorion lowered his head and said nothing.
Madam Quartley didn't continue scolding him.
On the one hand, she felt sorry for her grandson. On the other hand, she was afraid that Yuliana would find out if she made too much noise.
At first, Ruth's arrival had made Yuliana sad, but now Zorion actually went to see Ruth after such a short time!
Madam Quartley said to Zorion, "Zorion, forget it this time. Don't see Ruth again. I told you that Ruth has the best servants to take care of her. You don't need to worry about her. Besides, you should think about Yuliana. You are always worried about Ruth and neglecting Yuliana!"
Zorion's eyes flashed with confusion.
Why did he have to think about his wife when he was looking for Ruth?
But he soon understood.
His wife doesn't like Ruth.
Madam Quartley meant that his wife did not like Ruth, hence he'd better not look for Ruth again.
On the other side, when Madam Quartley saw the look of confusion in Zorion's eyes, she sighed heavily.
She didn't want to continue this topic with Zorion.
Zorion was a fool. Hence, he wouldn't understand.
Madam Quartley patted Zorion's shoulder. "Anyway, don't look for Ruth in the future again. She has nothing to do with you even if she is in the Quartley Palace. If you want to find her, I will be unhappy and so will Yuliana. Just remember this."
"Oh." Zorion was extremely disappointed.
After Madam Quartley left, a person suddenly walked out from the corner.
It was Qiana.

Seeing Zorion, she pretended to be surprised and asked, "Brother, why are you here? I've been looking for you for along time! I said that I would be back from the bathroom to continue to play with you with the paper planes, but you disappeared in a flash."
Zorion had never been on guard against anyone.
Besides, he regarded Qiana as a good friend, He told Qiana what had just happened and told her what he really wanted to say. "I really want to see Ruth, but Madam Quartley said that she and my wife would be unhappy. I don't know what to do."
At this point, he stopped. After a while, he whispered, "But I really want to see Ruth. She said that she was pregnant. I heard that pregnant women are very tired. I want to take care of Ruth and talk to her."
Qiana's eyes darted around.
At first, she wanted to lure Zorion to see Ruth and then lured Yuliana over. Unexpectedly, Madam Quartley heard the news so quickly and spoiled her
plan.
However, it didn't matter.
"If this plan doesn't work, then we'll move on to the next plan!" She thought.
After all, Zorion was a fool who was easy to influnce!
Qiana looked surprised. "I don't even know Ruth is in the Quartley Palace."
"She is now in the Quartley Palace." Zorion pointed in a direction. "No one told me. If I hadn't seen Ruth, I wouldn't have known either."
Qiana was still surprised. "Since she is here, you should visit her often. After all, you have a good relationship with her."
Zorion was a little sad. "But Madam Quartley and my wife don't like Ruth. They don't want me to see her. I...I actually want to go meet Ruth very much. Ruth is my closest friend."
The word "closest friend" made Qiana smirk in her heart.
She thought that a fool was a fool. His words were really ridiculous.
"Zorion, since Madam Quartley and Yuliana don't want you to see Ruth, but you want to see her again, why don't you go and meet her secretly?" Qiana offered advice to Zorion, faking her sympathy.
"But the servants are taking care of Ruth. The servants will tell Madam Quartley," Zorion whispered.
Qiana lowered her voice and replied, "The servants are taking care of Ruth during the day, and they may not take care of her at night. If you go there at night, no one will know."
Zorion dazed for a moment, and then a surprise flashed in his eyes.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Why didn't he think of it?
Zorion replied happily, "Then, I'll go find Ruth tonight."
Qiana continued, "No matter whether you go or not, you can't tell anyone that I gave you this idea. If others find out, they will definitely blame me. I came up with this idea for your own good."
Zorion replied confidently, "Qiana, don't worry. I swear I won't tell anyone."
Qiana smiled gently and said, "I'll head off now. I just want to see you happy."
Qiana left, and Zorion stayed where he was.
He was thinking about what time he would find Ruth at night so that he would not be discovered. He was so serious that he did not even notice a
figure appearing in front of him.
It was Tremaine.
