My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Yesseca had finally left.

She and Tremaine had 'slept together', plus she was the apple of Madam Quartley's eyes. There was no need for her to endure Yuliana's biting sarcasm.

"Oh, Yuliana, so much envy in every word you said." Qiana's lips stretched out into a fake smile. "I guess you must be jealous of me, jealous that I've become Mr. Tremaine's woman."

A red flush bloomed across Yuliana's face down to her neck. "Don't talk nonsense. Who would be jealous of you?"

Qiana gave her a sneer, "How can you not be? After all, your man is a fool, whereas Mr. Tremaine is the most outstanding man in Nashaland. Your own man can't even be compared to a single finger on his body!" she stated tactlessly.

A snap could be heard as Yuliana's mind exploded.

Qiana's words had hit her at her sore spot.

Thus, in a fit of rage, Yuliana raised her hand with the intention to strike her across her face.

Qiana glared at her fearlessly, "Yuliana, you better think over your actions carefully before you regret it. My current identity isn't like before. I am Mr. Tremaine's woman, the most beloved person in Madam Quartley's heart, let me see if you dare to hit me!" Yuliana's hand froze midway in the air.

After a while, she squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth. "Qiana, don't forget the things you did before!"

She wanted to use this to threaten Qiana, to let herself occupy the highest position as well as leave a way out for her.

However, Qiana had no intention to let her do so.

She jeered at her and said, "Of course I remember, but I also recall that you and I are on the same boat. Yuliana, it's best that you don't forget."

Her meaning was clear. Whatever she did, Yuliana also had a part in it. As such, there was no way for Yuliana to use this method to blackmail her!

Yuliana was furious to the point of dizziness but there was nothing she could do.

She put down her hand, "Fine, Qiana! Just wait and see!"

Soon after that, Yuliana ran back to her room and switched on her computer.

She now wanted to properly view the camera footage of that night.

The part of the clip that showed exactly how Qiana enticed Tremain to get between the sheets with her.

She had no way to threaten Qiana as they were both in the same boat in regards to the previous matter.

However, this time, Qiana had used some trick to climb into Tremaine's bed. She had no part in that! She wanted to see what that woman, Qiana, had to say about that!

Yuliana clicked heavily on the play button.

At first, she had some reservations and didn't really want to watch it, afraid that she would be unable to stand it if she saw the scene of the man she had once yearned for, getting it on with another woman. But now, she couldn't not watch.

No matter how uncomfortable she'd get, she still needed to watch it.

Because she had to use this footage to teach Qiana a good lesson!

That way, Qiana would not dare to flaunt herself in front of her any longer!

What a joke!

She thought that she could do whatever she wanted since she climbed into Tremaine's bed, and now she wanted to climb up the top of the food chain! Truly a fool's dream.

Well, she was about to slap that b*tch awake from her beautiful delusion!

The footage began to play.

Yuliana's eyes were fixed on the screen, unwilling to miss out a single detail.

Seconds and minutes ticked by.

Once the footage had come to an end, Yuliana was stunned, struck dumb with absolute shock.

That was because Qiana had actually not done the deed with Tremaine at all!

eli

Numerous times, she had tried to unbuckle his belt, only to be pushed away by him. In the end, Qiana had to bleed on the bed herself, remove all her clothes, then rushed to situate herself underneath the sheets and create the illusion that Tremaine had had his way with her!

Yuliana's mouth was opened so wide, it formed into the shape of an 'O'.

She had never expected that things would turn out like this.

After a brief moment of shock, a burst of ecstasy swirled through her heart.

Because the man she had once admired had not slept with that loathsome woman, Qiana!

But more so on the fact that Qiana wouldn't be able to get one over her in the future!

She switched off the computer, a smile full of malevolence appeared on her face. Qiana enjoyed the stew sent by a servant.

At the thought about how angry Yuliana had been earlier, her heart was filled with glee.

She had detested Yuliana from the start.

She was obviously just a fool's wife, yet she'd always regarded herself as the madam of the Quartley family and put on disgusting airs every day. She really had no sense of self-knowledge, much less knowledge of her own status

In the past, she'd needed to make

use of Yuliana. Added to the fact that Yesseca was still at the Quartley Palace, it hadn't been

convenient for her to create enemies for herself, which was why she had

pretended to become friends with

Yuliana.

It wasn't possible for them to continue to that fake relationship. After all, Yuliana was so ignorant and unable to judge a situation that she'd even dared to mock her. In that case, she would just teach her a little lesson. Qiana took a sip of the stew, a sinister look flashing through her eyes.

In the future, she would let Yuliana know who was the true madam of the Quartley family.

At this moment, Yuliana came around again.

A complete opposite from when she stomped off in anger, this time she was smiling with an especially bright grin.

Qiana peered at her in contemplation. Had Yuliana figured things out and knew that she couldn't afford to offend her anymore, hence why she came by to curry favor with her with a face full of smiles?

Qiana raised her head with a haughty look.

"Wow, Qiana, drinking stew, huh?" Yuliana skipped over to the side of her bed, "This stew is extremely precious, you know. Madam Quartley had someone specially fly the ingredients for it in."

Qiana laughed as she put the bowl to the side, "There's no helping it, Grandma dotes on me so. Now that I've become Mr. Tremaine's woman, the whole of Quartley Palace treats me as a treasure, it's actually pretty vexing." "That is vexing." Yuliana said in commiseration, "Qiana, how about I help you solve this problem?"

Qiana looked at Yuliana in askance, she had yet to get her meaning.

Yuliana leaned in closer towards her, her voice low as she said, "Oh, Qiana...if Madam Quartley knew that you and Tremaine actually had no relations at all, and that the blood stains on the bed were fake,

wouldn't you say that all youove

vexations would ceased to exist?"

With that said, she threw back her head and laughed loudly.

Qiana's expression changed.

She looked at Yuliana warily. "What do you mean?"

Yuliana sneered. "It's as I said. You sure are bold, Qiana! To actually have the gall to deceive both Madam Quartley and Tremaine, what courage!"

Qiana was flustered, but she forced herself to remain calm.

Last night, only she and Tremaine were in the bedroom. It was impossible for a third party to know what had happened.

Yuliana was just making wild guesses!

She absolutely couldn't know the truth!

At this thought, Qiana refuted with confidence, "Yuliana, it's no big deal if you are jealous of me, yet here you are lying and talking nonsense! What did I deceive anyone about? Mr. Tremaine truly wanted me! Don't spout such slander!"
