My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey)



This was the first time she had gotten so upset at Yuliana!

"Yuliana, I know that the paper flowers aren't worth anything, but they Zorion's token of affection for you. Buying really flowers would have been too easy, how wealthy the Quartley family is, we could buy up all the flowers in Nashaland!"

"But Zorion chose to do this, he chose to put in the effort to fold all those paper flowers for you!"

"Do you know how much time and effort it took him to make that pile of paper flowers?! It took him a lot of effort to do it! He struggled, but he kept on practicing and practicing until he managed it!"

"The first time you stomped on his paper flower, I didn't say anything! But then you kept doing it over and over again! The second time and then a third time! You stamped on all of his flowers Yuliana! You broke his heart!

"Zorion is your husband! And you've gone and broke his heart! How could you do this to him?!"ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Yuliana silently took Madam Quartley's fierce scolding!

Madam Quartley was so angry at her that she stood up during her lecture!

The madam of the Quartley family walked over to Yuliana in a very imposing manner!

She yelled, "Yuliana! I know that Zorion is mentally challenged! But he really loves you! I've told you this several times now. It's so hard to look for a good daughter-in-law! But that aside, where on Earth can you find a man who is as sincere as Zorion? He loves you so much!"

"Do you know how many sleepless nights he's had folding that pile of paper flowers for you?!"

"Do you know how much he's sacrificed for you?!"

"No! You don't! You haven't the slightest idea at all! You've broken his heart Yuliana!"

"You're his wife! How can you simply turn a blind eye to him like this?! Do you even want to be his wife?!"

Yuliana knew that she had messed up, she hung her head low.

Madam Quartley was exhausted from scolding her.

She waved her hand at her. "Go away."

Yuliana was very embarrassed, and quietly said, "Madam Quartley, I was wrong. I won't ever act this way again. Please don't be angry, I won't do it again."

Yuliana turned around to leave.

Madam Quartley then said, "Yuliana, you should know this. We had originally arranged for Zorion to be married to a woman from a much more prestigious family, but our family only agreed to you marrying him because he chose you."

Yuliana stopped in her tracks.

She looked back at Madam Quartley.

Madam

interartley was looking

intently at Yuliana. Even though she had said that gently, what she said

had cut Yuliana like a knife t

"Yuliana, you would do well to remember that it wasn't for Zorion

pet

and gur family, would have nothing"

swno

It felt like a huge hammer had smashed into Yuliana's head.

His head buzzed.

Ever since she married into the Quartley family, she was always under Madam Quartley.

The worst thing she had to deal with was Yesseca.

Madam Quartley was always nice to her.

She had always had a carefree life.

But with just a few words, Madam Quartley had popped her bubble.

If it weren't for the Quartley family and Zorion, she was nothing!

This was true!

And she knew it!

But she couldn't stand hearing it from Madam Quartley.

Yuliana returned to her room, her face pale.

She saw Zorion.

He was still folding paper flowers.

When he saw Yuliana walk in, he quickly grabbed a freshly folded paper flower and handed it to her, "Dear, look! I folded this one really welt! It looks really good!"

Yuliana didn't say anything.
