Yesseca hadn't expected Ruth to bow so deeply towards her.

She quickly helped Ruth up. "Hey, don't do that. | can't bear to see you like this."

Ruth then stood up straight.

Yesseca added, "Besides, I'm not stupid. Yuliana didn't mean to criticize you. She's just making accusations. |

can't let you suffer on my behalf." Ruth felt a warm feeling inside her welling up.

She whispered, "Miss Cowell, you are a good person."

Yesseca smiled, "You're also a good person as well."

Although Yuliana always referred to Ruth as her annoying servant, Yesseca could see that Ruth was actually a

good person.

Once, when she nearly fell down the stairs, Ruth cand held her up.

There was a brief flicker of light in Ruth's eyes.

She suddenly felt a lot closer to Yesseca and was compelled to tell her things.

But she soon tossed that idea aside.

If she grew too close to Yesseca, Yuliana would kill her.

Ruth then said, "Miss Cowell, | must go now. | have lots to do today."

Ruth arrived on Yuliana's floor.

Yuliana was waiting for her.

As she watched Ruth approach her, her anger began to grow worse and worse.

She slapped Ruth's face so hard that Ruth's head was flung to one side. There was blood on her mouth.

Drops of blood slowly fell onto the ground.

Ruth was stunned.

She looked at the blood on the floor and fell into a daze.

Yuliana shouted angrily, "How dare you, Ruth! Are you my servant or not? What did you just say to that b*tch?! |

walked away, but you didn't follow me. Instead you talked to her. Ruth, you're looking to cause a scene, aren't

you? | haven't punished you for stnow, haven't 1?"

Yuliana slapped her again.

It was extremely painful.

At this moment, Ruth recalled the things that

Yesseca had said to her.

Ruth suddenly asked, "Madam Yuliana, I'm a human being as well, | had parents who raised me. Why do you hit

As soon as she said this, both Ruth and Yuliana were stunned on the spot.

Ruth couldn't believe it. She had dared to say such things to Yuliana.

Yuliana couldn't believe it either.

Ruth had always been obedient to her. No matter what Yuliana said or did, Ruth would silently accept it. But this

time, she'd actually dared to question her!

Yuliana was furious!

This must be Yesseca's doing, that b*tch!

No wonder Ruth didn't follow after her immediately. It must have been Yesseca who had twisted Ruth's

personality.

Yuliana pointed at Ruth's nose and said, "Why do | hit you like this? Because you're my servant. You were sold

into servitude to the Frenandez family and you're destined to work like a horse for the rest of your life. Yet you,

Ruth, think you can stand up to me? Wishful thinking!" "Did that b*tch Yesseca put you up to this? Letbe

frank, you really shouldn't compare yourself to Yesseca. Although Yesseca is a b*tch who will soon face her

downfall, she at least, has Tremaine to support her. Unlike you, Ruth!"

The verbal abuse continued.

Yuliana's litany of curses flew out of her mouth like a storm.

Ruth kept quiet and didn't speak.

She felt sadness rising in her heart.

Yuliana was right. She couldn't do as she pleased.

She was just a maid.

Yuliana had finally finished scolding her.

Ruth remained silent, which made Yuliana feel more at ease. She then swaggered away.

Ruth stood there blankly, as though she had gone catatonic.

After stime, she felt someone pat her on her shoulder.

If it were any other tbefore, she would have been startled by this.

But now, she barely reacted at all.

She simply turned around very slowly.

It was Zorion. He had been waiting for her to be surprised at his arrival,

but since she didn't react that y

way,

he was somewhat dissapointed.

Ruth wasn't startled at all.

Zorion seemed puzzled at first, but then his face froze.

He saw blood running down from the corner of Ruth's lips.

QUMS

She had a large bruise on the corner of mouth with blood dripping out.

Zorion panicked. "Ruth! Ruth, blood!"

Ruth understood.

She said softly, "Mr. Zorion, everything's fine."

"Blood. Why are you bleeding?" Zorion asked.

Ruth sniffed.

She said, "Mr. Zorion, it was an accident. | hurt myself."

"Then be more careful," Zorion replied.

Ruth's face was swollen. Coupled with the blood on her lips, anyone could see that Ruth had been horribly

beaten.

But Zorion didn't realize this because he was mentally challenged.

"Ruth, go and put smedicine on it, go put son it," Zorion urged.

She refused.

She didn't want any medicine.

She simply shook her head. "Mr. Zorion, please don't worry about it. It's not infected."

Zorion grew anxious.

Although he was mentally challenged, he knew that it was still necessary to apply ointment to the injury.

Seeing that Ruth was hesitating, Zorion quickly held her hand and said, "Ruth, please put smedicine on it."

Ruth gasped as she felt her cold palm in his hands.

She blushed and pulled her hand away from Zorion's palm.

Feeling a little breathless, she replied, "I... I'll put smedicine on it."

There was an in-house doctor on duty at the Quartley Palace.

The doctor could tell the source right away when he saw her injury.

He immediately asked, "Who would be so ruthless to do this to you? | should report this to the president and

have him deal with them."

"Ruth, Ruth fell down," Zorion answered.

The doctor looked at him.

He knew that Zorion was mentally challenged, so he wasn't convinced.

However, Ruth also chimed in, "I got hurt when | fell down."

The doctor then decided to stop asking aboutt it.

Since Ruth gave him such an answer, he knew she was covering up for something or someone.

The doctor continued to apply sointment on Ruth's injuries.

As Ruth was being treated, Zorion moved closer to her and looked at her with concern in his eyes. "Ruth, does it

hurt? If it does, I'll give you scandy, if you eat it you won't feel the pain anymore."

She shook her head. "Mr. Zorion, I'm not in any pain."

Zorion was very close to her right now. Ruth could see all of his handsfeatures up close. His eyes were

bright and large. She felt like she had fallen into a sea of stars just by looking into them.

Ruth's eyes flashed briefly as she thought to herself, "Mr. Zorion is really handsome."

He was just as handsas the president.

She felt that if he wasn't mentally challenged, he would have turned out to be a very good man, just like the

president.

"Ruth, what are you thinking about? Do you want scandy?" She suddenly heard Zorion's voice.

Ruth then cback to her senses.

She said, "No, it's fine."
