My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 2341

"Sister, even though our family is a very powerful one, I've always felt like an ordinary girl. I'm not very beautiful and not strong in character either. I'm not the same as you."

"Oh Sister, how can you say that about yourself?" Weverly interrupted Rorita and said, "Rorita you are a very beautiful woman. You just wear such simple clothes that hide all of your beauty!" Rorita smiled and said, "Well, I still see myself as a regular woman, so I will cherish this opportunity to marry the president. As for all those other things, I'll just choose not to think about them." "I've already told you, even though I will end up as a puppet wife, I am still happy to marry him."

Weverly let out a deep and long sigh.

Forget it. There's no point talking about it anymore.

Her sister was very determined, there was no changing her mind.

Weverly held Rorita's hand and said, "Sister, I was wrong about you. You are so sincere and determined. I'm sure the president will be moved by your devotion in time."

"He may not have any feelings for you now, but I'm certain that in time he will come to love you."

Later that afternoon, Yuliana and Madam Quartley went to visit the Cowell family.

They had come to see Rorita.

They were also there to ask Rorita if she had any requests for her wedding.

The meeting pleased Madam Quartley and Yuliana immensely.

Madam Quartley really liked Rorita.

She found her to be a very polite and well mannered girl. She spoke softly and was very clearly brought up with a very noble background.

Yuliana, on the other hand, found Rorita to be a complete pushover.

If a woman like her married her way into the Quartley Palace, she was very unlikely to cause any problems for her.

Yuliana would still be able to uphold her status as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Quartley Palace!

As they were leaving the Cowell family villa, Madam Quartley said to Yuliana, "You know, Rorita has the same surname as Yesseca. In some aspects, she is pretty similar to Yesseca, but her personality isn't as sharp and biting as Yesseca's." Yuliana noticed that Madam Quartley was being quite sincere with her.

Rorita did resemble Yesseca in a lot of ways.

She spoke in a very soft voice and even dressed similarly to her.

But Rorita was obviously very much softer in nature.

She was Yesseca, without the attitude, which made her much easier to approach and to bully.

But Yuliana wasn't going to tell Madam Quartley this of course. Instead she said, "Yes Madam Quartley, I see what you mean. But she is so much softer in nature compared to Yesseca. She is so much easier to befriend and talk to."

Yuliana then paused for a moment before making a promise to Madam Quartley, "Yesseca had always been much too strong headed and impulsive. I assure you Madam Quartley, things are going to go beautifully between me and Rorita. I will do my utmost to befriend her and welcome her."

Madam Quartley burst out in joyous laughter as she heard this.

She then said, "Lovely, just wonderful! I am so looking forward to seeing things liven up again in the Quartley Palace. It will be so nice for everyone to get along."

Noticing how happy Madam Quartley was, Yuliana took the opportunity to ask. "Well yes Madam Quartley. With how busy and lively things will be in the Quartley Palace, don't you think it's time for Zorion and I to raise that baby together?"

Yuliana had always thought of Ruth as a dangerous element to her as Ruth was currently raising Zorion's baby.

She wanted to raise the baby herself.

However, when she had raised this idea to Madam Quartley several times before, she was met with strong opposition from her. Yuliana hadn't dare mention this again for some time. But now that Madam Quartley was in a good mood, she decided to take her chances. Hearing Yuliana's request, Madam Quartley's face fell. She waved her hand at her and said, "Ruth is still breastfeeding the baby. It is very important for the baby to have it's mother's milk for growth and development. We can think about it after it has outgrown that phase." Yuliana couldn't persuade her, so she decided to keep quiet.

Madam Quartley on the other hand was having a tough struggle in her mind.

She had been so worried about Tremaine that she had completely forgotten about Ruth.

Now that Tremaine's situation had been dealt with, it was time to address the situation with Ruth and Zorion!

She had to come up with a solution on what to do with the baby!

Madam Quartley decide to discuss this with Tremaine right after his wedding ceremony!

That evening, Tremaine returned to the Quartley Palace.

For the time being, Madam Quartley avoided mentioning Ruth. Instead she sang praises of Rorita to Tremaine, saying how gentle and decent she was to him.

Tremaine remained indifferent.

He simply replied dryly to Madam Quartley, "I'll be heading back to my room now." Madam Quartley was quiet.

She then asked, "Tremaine, don't you have any opinions or thoughts about Rorita?"

"Nope."

Madam Quartley had to settle herself down. It was already a blessing for Tremaine to agree to marrying Rorita.

"Alright then, go on up and get your rest."

Although she had praised Tremaine about this, he remained indifferent to everything. Madam Quartley felt depressed. Tremaine returned to his bedroom.

His eyes fell onto the portrait by his bed.

Every day, he would take the portrait down and look at it for a very long time.

As he looked at it, he suddenly recalled what Madam Quartley had told him.

There was a trace of loneliness in Tremaine's eyes.

He stroked the portrait as he said, "Yesseca, no one on this Earth can ever compare to you. No one can ever replace you." Not even Rorita.

He had no feelings for Rorita. Regardless of how much people praised her, he didn't care at all.

The only person he actually cared about was Yesseca.

But then...

He still had to marry another woman.

Tremaine smiled wryly.

The dream he had fallen into also caused him to wake up to reality.

He was the President of Nashaland.

He was the ruler of a nation.

He had to bear that responsibility.

He also loved Yesseca.

But he couldn't escape from his responsibilities just because he loved Yesseca.

Time passed quickly as the days flew by.

On this day, news about Tremaine marrying Rorita, the youngest daughter of the prestigious Cowell family in Nashaland had reached Selina.

Selina was very upset to hear this news.

She remembered what the artist had told her, how said Tremaine had been that day, which had moved her.

She didn't want to admit it, but deep inside, she felt sympathy for Tremaine.

Just like that, Tremaine was going to marry another woman.

Selina felt that this had happened way too fast.

She even thought that Tremaine had simply put on an act when he went to got those portraits.

She couldn't help herself from venting about this to Matthew.

Matthew's eyes flashed with a complicated look of mixed emotions.

Selina didn't understand how Tremaine thought about things, but Matthew did.

Looking at Selina's indignant face, Matthew explained softly, "Selina, I've mentioned this to you before. The whole reason why I got that artist to paint her portrait was because I knew that it would be impossible for Tremaine to ever see Yesseca again. She has decided to never ever forgive him." "Yes I remember you saying that." Selina then said, "I had still believed that he loved her, but now in such a short time, he's already marrying another woman. That's not love at all!"
