My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)

Chapter 2149



Tremaine stared at Ruth sharply and asked, "Where did this child come from?"

Ruth's eyelashes trembled violently. "Sir, it was from the time in Quartley palace when I had the unexpected incident with Mr. Zorion and I fell pregnant with this baby. I wanted to abort it, but I couldn't bear to do it. So...so I kept it."

"Did you tell grandma about your pregnancy?"

"Sir, I didn't tell Madam Quartley. I wanted to raise the child all by myself, but Madam Quartley somehow found out."

"Are you sure you didn't tell her?" Tremaine suddenly raised his voice.

Ruth trembled with fear.

She shook her head desperately and said, "Mr. Tremaine, I didn't say anything to Madam Quartley. I didn't even tell anyone. If I wanted to tell her, I wouldn't have waited until now. I really didn't know how she found out. She suddenly came to my place that night and took me to do a paternity test. Then she arranged this place for me."

Tremaine didn't break eye contact. A thought flashed through his eyes.

He had asked this because he wanted to know Ruth's intentions.

But now, Ruth said it wasn't her.

Then who told her?

Madam Quartley stayed in Quartley palace all year round. She barely even went out, so how could she know that Ruth was pregnant? Someone must have said something to Madam Quartley.

But who would say that?

Zorion?

Impossible.

He didn't even know that Ruth was pregnant.

Yuliana?

It was even more impossible.

Based on his understanding of Yuliana, even if she had found out, she would never tell Madam Quartley about Ruth's pregnancy so Ruth would not be able to stay in a big villa like this to prepare for her childbirth.

The doubts in his mind were quickly suppressed by Tremaine.

How Madam Quartley found out was not the point.

"Ruth, what are you planning to do now?"

Tremaine asked.

Ruth's heart skipped a beat.

Did Tremaine mean he was giving her a chance to choose?

She summoned up her courage and looked up at Tremaine and said, "Sir, if it's possible, I want to raise this child myself."

A wave of emotion flashed across Tremaine's eyes.

He asked, "Do you need money from the Quartley family to raise him?"

Ruth immediately shook her head and said, "You don't need to help me in any way. I'm a young person with hands and feet. I can afford to raise a child."

"Then what do you want?"

Ruth took a deep breath and said, "I just want this child. Sir, I just want my child."

Now that she was put in the villa, Ruth knew that the child would not be hers.

Maybe the baby would be taken away as soon as he was born.

Although she comforted herself that it was a better choice for the child to stay in Quartley palace, her heart hurt every time she thought about the child being taken away as soon as he

was born.

Tremaine's words seemed to give Ruth a glimmer of hope.

Although she wasn't confident, Ruth still plucked up the courage to bring it up.

Tremaine didn't say anything.

Looking at Ruth's expectant expression, Tremaine felt that Ruth did not seem to be lying.

She really hadn't intended to tell the Quartley family about her pregnancy. She had wanted to give birth to this child and raise it by herself.

Tremaine sighed slightly.

In fact, when he was in Quartley palace, he felt that Ruth was not as bad as what Madam Quartley and Yuliana had said.

But at that time, he had to weigh the pros and cons.

After all, Ruth was a servant and Yuliana was Zorion's beloved wife. No matter the reason, Ruth had slept with Zorion. It was wrong.

Besides, both Madam Quartley and Yuliana needed an explanation.

At that time, he could only kick Ruth out of Quartley palace.

However, he had never expected that Ruth would be pregnant. This matter had become very tricky.

Madam Quartley was determined to keep the child. She would not allow Ruth to take the child away.

Ruth was indeed pregnant with the bloodline of the Quartley family. If this child was born, the Quartley family would not allow their bloodline to be left out.

What's more, for this unborn baby, it was indeed a better choice for it to stay in Quartley palace.

After all, Ruth was a woman without any background. She could afford to support and sustain the baby, but only to sustain its life.

The child could only get a better future if it stayed in the Quartley family.

Tremaine had made up his mind in just a few minutes.

His voice was solemn. "Ruth, the best option is to abort this baby. This is best for both you and my brother. My brother has a wife. The existence of your child will become an obstacle between him and his wife."

"You will have your own life in the future and you can still fall in love and get married. Giving birth to this child will also be a burden, so it is best to get rid of it now."

Tremaine understood that Madam Quartley wanted to keep this child.

However, he had to be more rational about this matter. Besides, he owed her for kicking her out of Quartley palace. Now, Tremaine also wanted to give her the best choice.

Ruth's expression changed when she heard Tremaine asking her to abort the child.

She covered her lower abdomen and there was hint of determination in her weak voice. "Sir, I don't want to abort this child. You are a man and you don't understand women's love for children. This child is my kindred. I can feel his movements and I can feet his little feet kicking me. This is a life. I can't kill him. Even if you were to kill me, I will still keep this child!"

Tremaine didn't want to force Ruth to abort the baby. He just wanted to give her the best choice.

Since she was unwilling, there was only one way left.

Tremaine said in a low voice, "Ruth,

if you don't want to abort the baby, you have to give it to the Quartley family after giving birth. The Quartley family will never allow their bloodline to be left outside. Think about it carefully. Do you want to stop the damage in time or regret for the rest of your life?"

"In addition," Tremaine said, "if this child is given to the Quartley family, as Yuliana's previous servant, you should know her personality well. It's unknown whether you will be able to see this child in the future. Ruth, think about it."

Ruth looked extremely pale.

She began to hesitate. She thought that Tremaine would agree for her to raise the child, but she hadn't expected that it was only wishful thinking.

She should understand.

Now that the Quartley family knew of this child's existence, it was impossible for them to let her raise the child alone.

Ruth's eyes reddened.

She said, "Sir, no matter what, I have to give birth to this child. No mother can kill her own flesh and blood with her own hands."
