My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 2065

Humans were strange creatures.

The next day soon arrived.

The night before, Tremaine told Yesseca that Montez had recovered. His high fever had also subsided and he was in good condition.

However, Yesseca was still a little worried.

So after Tremaine went to the president's office and when she found that Madam Quartley was not at home, she sneaked into Montez's room.

However, as soon as she headed upstairs, she heard a voice coming from the hall.

"Mother, can I not drink the chicken soup? I don't like it." This was Montez's voice.

Soon after, Qiana's voice rang out as well, "Montez, you're a good kid. I specifically made this for you. Though you have recovered, you're still weak. You need to drink some soup to replenish your nutrients." "Mom, it tastes really bad."

"I'll bring you some candies after you finish the soup. Is that better?"

"Alright then." Montez reluctantly agreed.

Qiana went to get some candies for Montez but spotted Yesseca by the landing of the stairs.

She immediately walked over quickly and said respectfully, "Miss Cowell."

Yesseca lowered her voice and said, "Qiana, did I heard Montez saying that he doesn't like to drink chicken soup?"

Qiana's face was full of worry. "It's not that he doesn't like to drink it, it's because of my poor cooking skills. I'm just bad at it."

Yesseca thought for a moment and said, "Qiana, I actually make a mean chicken soup."

Back when she was bedridden, Lothar often made chicken soup for her that was fragrant and tasty.

Later on, when Lothar left and whenever she missed him, Yesseca would make the same chicken soup for herself.

The longer the soup was brewed, the better it tasted.

Before coming to the Nashaland, Montez had tried Yesseca's chicken soup before and he liked it.

Which was why Yesseca truly believed that Qiana's cooking skills must be bad because Montez did actually like to drink chicken soup.

"Really?" Upon hearing Yesseca's words, Qiana's

eyes brightened. "Miss Cowell, can I ask you for this favor? Montez really doesn't like to drink chicken soup I made. But he needs to drink it to replenish his nutrients. I'm worried and anxious that he won't drink mine cause I know that mine taste bad. If you can help me to cook some and Montez likes it, then that would be the best."

Yesseca immediately agreed.

She wanted to help the moment she heard Montez saying that he didn't want to drink Qiana's soup.

But she was just worried that Qiana would be unhappy if she wanted to help out.

After all, the cookies she had made previously had caused Montez to get diarrhea. She was afraid that Qiana would object to her request and reject her. Now that Qiana was willing to take the initiative to speak, that was the best for Yesseca. Yesseca felt a little guilty and said, "Qiana, this is what I should have done anyway. Montez was sick because of me so it's reasonable if I make him the soup."

Qiana immediately shook her head. "Miss Cowell, what are you saying? Did Madam Quartely's words make you unhappy? Don't argue with ther. She's an old woman after all. She doesn't understand but I do. I know you're good to Montez. Why would you harm Montez? I know who you are! With just one glance, I can see that you are a kind young lady."

Upon hearing Qiana's words, the guilt in Yesseca's eyes deepened.

"Qiana, you're a good person." Yesseca blurted out.

Hearing Yesseca's words, Qiana felt extremely embarrassed.

She said, "Miss Cowell, I just spoke out what I thought. Montez told me all the time how great you are and I am grateful for that. I know you don't like me staying here so I tried not to show up in front of you because I was afraid that I'd make you unhappy." Hearing these words made Yesseca feel even more guilty. She wanted to just burrow herself into a hole.

That's because she recalled how she

had been selfish and didn't want Qiana to stay at Quartley Palace. She was afraid and worried that Qiana would beg or force Tremaine to be with her and if the time came, Yesseca didn't know how to handle the matter if it arose.

But who would have thought that Qiana had never had such thoughts or intentions?

Since Yesseca moved into Quartley Palace, Qiana had deliberately avoided her and after she made Montez sick, Qiana not only did not blame her but comforted her as well.

"Qiana, don't avoid me next time." Yesseca was so ashamed that she didn't even dare to look at Qiana. "If you don't mind, you can come and chat with me. I definitely won't be made unhappy by your presence." Qiana smiled.

She said, "Forget it, Miss Cowell.

Even if you say so, I can't do that. After all, I'm Montez's biological mother. It's really embarrassing for me to do this. But in order not to be ridiculed by others, it's better if avoid showing up in front of you and Mr Tremaine. But I'm really happy to hear your words. Before you and Mr. Tremaine married, I was afraid that you would be mad for what I did but I'm happy to hear you saying you welcome me."

There was a silence.

Qiana and Yesseca spoke as if they were sincere to each other and were laying out their hearts out to each other.

Yesseca was truly being sincere.

However Qiana was not.

After Yesseca left, Qiana looked at Yesseca's disappearing back and the corner of her lips curled up.

She dared to bet that Yesseca had a good impression of her right now.

Ha ha.

Qiana walked back into the hall.

Because Quartley Palace was simply too big, Montez didn't overhear the conversation between Qiana and Yesseca.

When he saw Qiana coming over, Montez asked, "Mother, what took you so long?"

Qiana smiled and said, "I just met Miss Cowell and I chatted with her."

Montez's expression froze.

After a moment, he carefully said, "Mother, although Great Grandmother said that I got sick because of the cookies Yesseca made, I don't think it's true. Yesseca wouldn't hurt me. Don't be angry at her, okay, Mom?"

Qiana patted Montez's head gently.

"Of course, I won't be mad at her, Montez. I don't think Miss Cowell would harm you. Even though the cookies have been tested out to have some bacteria and viruses, I don't think she did. She must have been careless. She definitely couldn't have done it on purpose."

"Hmm," Montez replied.

Qiana said, "By the way, I just met Miss Cowell. She said that she's going to make the chicken soup for you."

Montez was stunned for a moment. After a while, he said, "Yesseca's chicken soup is delicious."

Normally, Montez would be overjoyed knowing that Yesseca was going to make some chicken soup for him. But now...
