Chapter 2438
"She just wouldn't give up. She even wants to take this opportunity to hook up with Tremaine. In fact,
I feel that they already did, Rorita. Otherwise, why would he have such a big reaction after Grandma announced not to allow Yesseca's desserts to be supplied to the Quartley Palace? He even went to find Madam Quartley himself." Yuliana honestly pointed out, "Rorita, for the sake of your marriage, you absolutely mustn't allow her to continue delivering desserts into the palace anymore."
"Otherwise, that vixen, Yesseca, would steal your husband away sooner or later."
Yuliana's constant chatter beside Rorita made the inside of ears buzz like no tomorrow.
She finally couldn't take it anymore and interrupted her, "I know, Yuliana. Thank you but I would like to turn in now."
It was only then that Yuliana gave it a rest.
"Have a good rest then, Rorita. Remember what I've just said! Bring out your momentum! All of Yesseca's desserts cannot be taken in! Throw them out straight away!" Yuliana said.
That evening, Madam Quartley had found out a certain news from the butler's own mouth.
And that was the desserts from Yesseca's store would continue to be delivered to the Quartley Palace the next day.
In the face of Madam Quartley's anger, the butler forced himself to say, "This is an order from Mr. Tremaine. Your portion of the desserts will be supplied by another store, but Mr. Tremaine would partake from the usual one."
"This is utter nonsense!" Madam Quartley shouted, "Does he have no consideration for his wife's feelings at all?! Tomorrow, all the desserts from Yesseca's store are not allowed to be sent into the palace! Do you hear me?" The butler remained silent.
It was evident that the master of the palace was Tremaine.
Since he had given his command, the butler dare not add any further comment on the issue.
"Did you hear what I said?" Madam Quartley intoned deeply when she noticed the lack of response from the butler.
It was only then the butler replied with an aggrieved face, "Madam, please understand. Mr. Tremaine had told me to had them delivered, but now you're telling me not to. I also don't know what to do, if things are like this I have no way of solving it. It's best that you discuss this with Mr. Tremaine, otherwise this would make things difficult for me."
Even though Madam Quartley was angry at heart, she had also known that what the butler said was true.
He was just a butler in the end, he couldn't make the decisions!
"I'm going to find Tremaine!" Madam Quartley pronounced angrily.
It was only after Madam Quartley reached Tremaine's floor did she find out that he had yet to return. This added fuel to the fire of her fury and she vented it out on the servant, "Why isn't he back even at this hour? What time does he usually come back
every day?"
As Madam Quartley had the habit of going to bed early, she wouldn't know the exact time of Tremaine's return to the palace.
The servant didn't dare utter a peep after being scolded so soundly by Madam Quartley. It was at that moment Rorita appeared. "Madam Quartley."
When Madam Quartley saw her, she momentarily held back some of her temper by a few degrees. "Rorita."
"Are you here to see Mr. Tremaine?" Rorita asked.
Madam Quartley didn't want to say it at first, but since the question had been asked, she could only say, "Yes, I came here to see him. Why isn't he back yet? I guess he's busy with work he is the nation's president after all."
She said this in the hopes that Rorita wouldn't overthink about this issue.
"That's right, Madam Quartley. Mr. Tremaine has too many burdens to shoulder as president, which is why he had to spend more time going over state affairs. I hope Madam Quartley can be considerate with him about this." Rorita was well aware of the conversation she heard between Madam Quartley and the butler.
A hint of surprise flashed across Madam Quartley's eyes.
She had initially intended to comfort her, but didn't expect herself to be comforted instead.
Soon after, the surprise in her eyes turned to approval.
