My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



Madam Quartley forced a smile. "Miss Lanes, to tell you the truth, Montez was not born like any other children..."

Madam Quartley lowered her voice and said.

Qiana's expression became really shocked.

Madam Quartley then waved her hands and said, "You wouldn't understand even if I tell you. After all, you have never even dated before."

"No, Madam Quartley, I do understand!" Qiana suddenly said loudly.

Madam Quartley looked at Qiana with a complicated expression in her eyes.

Qiana's eyelashes were shaking hard, and her voice was filled with sadness. "Madam Quartley, what you said just now reminded me about some things that happened back in the past. My father didn't care about me at all after he married a second wife. A few years ago, I actually did something similar to make my father mad."

Qiana's voice became lower and lower, and in the end, she even began to tear up, "Madam Quartley, I regretted it a lot up till today. If it weren't because you told me about Montez's matter, I wouldn't want to even bring it up. My father was too much back then. He chased me out of the house and disowned me, and he even cursed my mother. That was the reason why I did such a stupid thing!"

Madam Quartley stared at Qiana and asked, "Do you know where the child is at now?"

Qiana shook her head, with tears welling up in her eyes. "I don't know, and I've never asked about it either. I just hope that the child is doing fine. I hope that his father wouldn't ignore him after marrying a second wife, and I hope that he wouldn't have a life as miserable as mine."

Qiana's words made Madam Quartley's face turn pale at once.

It was because Qiana's words made her think of a possibility.

If Tremaine didn't marry Montez's biological mother, it would be very likely that Montez would receive the same treatment as Qiana.

After all, Tremaine would definitely have children with his new wife. When the time came, Montez would be the odd one out in that family! "Miss Lanes, if you could find the child, would you still be willing to be the child's mother?" Madam Quartley asked.

"Of course I'm willing to!" Qiana almost cried out, but she shook her head bitterly, "But it's impossible, Madam Quartley. When I gave the child away, I signed an agreement with the other party. That child will have nothing to do with me in the future. Although I would often think of that child and feel pain in my heart, there is nothing I can do about it!"

As she said, Qiana seemed as if she couldn't continue on anymore. Tears were running down her cheeks and she couldn't stop crying.

The look on her face was really touching.

Madam Quartley handed her a tissue and said, "Good girl, don't cry."

Qiana took the tissue and wiped her tears.

She sobbed as she said, "Can I ask you for a favor please, Madam Quartley? Please don't tell others about whatever I've told you today. I just couldn't control myself for a moment. I don't want anyone else to know about it. Please keep it a secret for me."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Madam Quartley nodded. "Don't worry."

"Thank you." Qiana lowered her head.

Madam Quartley's lips twitched a little.

She wanted to say something, but she chose not to say anything after some thought.

She stood up and said, "Miss Lanes, I shouldn't disturb you anymore. Please have a good rest."

Qiana also stood up.

She had stopped crying, but her eyes were still a little red. "Have a safe journey, Madam Quartley."

After Madam Quartley left, Qiana's lips slowly curled into a smile.

She had never realised how well she could act.

In the old folks home.

A group of old people had gathered together talking about their children.

Tadeus was sitting silently at a side, not saying a word.

The group of old people were talking about their children's filial piety and care towards themselves, and Tadeus felt sad.

He knew that those people were lying again.

If their children were so filial, they wouldn't send their elderly to the old folks home. But no matter how bad they were, their children would at least come to visit them.

Except for himself.

Tadeus's heart felt like it was being sliced.

He thought of Yesseca, that kind and lovely girl.

She was really a nice girl.

Tadeus thought.

But after all, they were not related by blood. Yesseca was not his daughter.

Actually, Tadeus had lied to Yesseca about one thing.

It was a lie that he didn't have any children.

In fact, he had a son.

His son's last name was Lanes.

In the afternoon, Yesseca said that she was going to work.

She had been in the hospital for the whole morning and had finally thought it through.

The night before, it had just been an illusion that Montez had seen. Why should she be so persistent about it?

Her brother had already passed away.

Even if he were alive, he would not look at them through the window in such a creepy way. That was absolutely impossible.

There was no other explanation except that it was just an illusion.

What's more, Montez had also told her the reason for him seeing the illusion.

Yesseca said she was going to work, and Tremaine wanted to send her there.

He didn't try to persuade Yesseca to

continue resting. He knew that Yesseca would overthink again if she continued to rest, and it was

better for her to go to work and have something else to do.

Tremaine wanted to send Yesseca there but Yesseca rejected his offer.

She still hadn't forgotten what Tremaine did to her yesterday.

Seeing Yesseca rejecting himself, Tremaine naturally knew the reason as well.

However, he didn't want to explain anything to Yesseca.

Besides, there was nothing much for him to explain either.

He then helped Yesseca get a taxi. Of course, he did not let Yesseca know about it. Yesseca thought that it was just a taxi that happened to pass by when she went out of the hospital.

When Yesseca got into the car, Montez asked Tremaine, "Daddy, why don't you send Yesseca back? How can you let her go back on her own?" Tremaine glanced at Montez and said, "Do you think that she would allow me to send her?"

Montez didn't know how to reply.

He had also seen Yesseca's cold attitude towards Tremaine.

Montez did not know what had happened that made Yesseca's attitude toward her father become so cold. After thinking for a while, Montez thought that Yesseca had just been too frightened last night.

"Daddy, have you found the exorcist? You have to exorcise Yesseca as soon as possible." Montez urged Tremaine.

Tremaine replied coldly, "Do you really believe that there are ghosts in this world?"

"Do they not then?" Montez's eyes widened. "Daddy, I saw it with my own eyes last night. It's definitely a ghost. His face was so pale, just like the ghosts I've seen on TV."

A cold look appeared in Tremaine's eyes. "Even if there's a ghost, it must be a human disguising themself as a ghost."

Montez was shocked, "Daddy, do

you mean that someone pretended to be a ghost to frighten Yesseca Why would he do such a thing? Yesseca is such a nice person, who would do that to frighten her? Don't scare me, Daddy."

Tremaine took Montez's hand and got on the car. "We will still have to investigate what was actually going on. Don't tell her anything for now, and you

shouldn't make her worry."

Montez nodded hard. "Don't worry, Daddy. I won't

tell her about it."

Tremaine then drove towards the Quartley family's place.

Montez suddenly added, "Daddy, you're so kind to Yesseca. Thank you for being so caring and considerate to your future daughter-in-law."
