My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)
Chapter 2478

"Mr.Tremaine, do you really think it's a good idea to hide away from the world after Miss Cowell's death? Or do you think that Miss Cowell would want you to do this?"

"If you don't know, then I can tell you with utmost certainty that Miss Cowell would absolutely not want you to do this! Because the Miss Cowell I know is a kind and honest woman. Even if she had broken up with you, she won't want you to live a bad life. She will certainly hope that after she dies, you can live well!"

However, even after Sheldon had come out with a bunch of reasons, Tremaine seemed unmoved.

He just waved his hand, a pinch of weariness between his brows. "All right, you've already said what you want to say. Now, leave, I still have work to deal with."

"Mr. Tremaine!"

"Ding ding ding."

All of a sudden, a ringtone sounded rapidly through the air. Tremaine answered his phone, his expression changing instantly when he heard.

It was a call from someone from the palace. They told him that Madam Quartley was going to commit suicide.

Tremaine arrived at the Quartley Palace as fast as he could.

Yuliana was there to greet him before he could even see his grandmother.

"Oh, Tremaine," Yuliana weeped as she wiped away her tears. "Grandma just couldn't accept the fact that you wanted to abdicate. No matter how much I persuaded her, it was no use. In the end, I intended to let her rest and left. But who would have thought that she would retrieve a bottle of paraquat from somewhere and proclaim that if you wanted to abdicate, then it would be better for her to die!"

Tremaine's heart sank when he heard this.

Paraquat!

His grandmother would go so far as to use this item!

Paraquat was a colorless and tasteless chemical, but just one sip could kill people!

The most terrifying thing of it all was that there was no antidote for this.

If it were any other poison, as long as an antidote was administered in time they could be saved. However, there was no cure for paraquat.

This toxic chemical could make people's lungs deteriorate bit by bit, leaving them in untold agony as they slowly head towards their death!

Tremaine no longer took heed of Yuliana and almost knocked her over in his haste.

Very soon, he came upon Madam Quartley.

She was sitting on the sofa with a bottle in her hand, a determined look on her face.

Rorita was in the middle of begging her to stop what she's doing.

However, Madam Quartley remained unmoved.

A sense of guilt flashed through Rorita's eyes when she saw Tremaine. She was careless.

At first, she had assumed that Madam Quartley wouldn't make a move so quickly and was prepared to tell Tremaine that night when he returned. She didn't expect that, not even half an hour later, Madam Quartley had actually procured a bottle of paraquat.

да

"Grandmother, what do you think you're doing!? Tremaine's voice boomed across the room. "Hurry and put the bottle down! One sip that would kill you! And it won't be a quick death! Your lungs would slowly shut down, breathing from then on would become difficult every single day and in the end, you would be unable to breathe until you

suffocate yourself to death!"

He had hoped to scare his grandmother away from her suicidal notions by telling her about the severity of the consequences. Contrary to what he expected though, Madam Quartley was persistently unaffected by what he said.

"It's because I know how potent this

medicine was that I found it!" she

professed with a glare his way. "Tremaine, if you really want to abdicate then I'll let you watch me

walk towards death's door! And

there's nothing you can do about it!"

Tremaine spoke to her for twenty minutes, but Madam Quartley continuously refused to give in.

Finally, she had no interest to quibble with him about this any longer.

Madam Quartley popped open the lid of the bottle. "If you don't take back your decision to abdicate within five minutes, then I'll take the poison immediately!"

"Tremaine! Just agree to Grandma's request!" Yuliana cried, "Do you really want to watch her die in front of you with your eyes wide open? Do you really want to be a sinner of the Quartley family?"
