Chapter 2359
"I will." Yesseca said, "The Lantern Festival is a tradition in our country, so of course, I'll be there."
As she spoke, memories came to her mind.
When she was a child, Lothar would bring her to the street to attend the festival.
She was young back then. Therefore, Lothar would always let her onto his shoulder.
She giggled.
He joked with her, "Sit all you want now, but you can't do so when you grow up."
She immediately asked, "Why can't I? I will always be on your shoulders."
Lothar held onto Yesseca's leg with one hand and used the other hand to pinch her nose. "Because when you grow up, you'll be sitting on your husband's leg." She was embarrassed.
She said, "I won't have a husband."
"You will." He said, "A good man will show up and care for you on my behalf."
The words were still lingering in Yesseca's ears.
But Lothar was gone.
The so-called good man had hurt her over and over again. She didn't think she would fall in love again.
Thinking of this, a bitterness flashed across her eyes.
Nashaland, Quartley Palace.
Rorita was enjoying the flowers with Madam Quartley.
Recently, she had been keeping Madam Quartley company.
The more Madam Quartley interacted with Rorita, the more she fell in love with this gentle and lovely girl.
For a moment, Rorita replaced Yuliana, who often accompanied Madam Quartley.
It made Yuliana a little unhappy.
After the session, Yuliana went to see Rorita.
She chatted her up for a while before changing the subject. "Rorita, you have been by Madam Quartley's side all this time. Did you know it was me who had always kept her company before this?" Rorita was born into a noble family, so she was naturally smart.
As soon as Yuliana said that, she understood what Yuliana meant.
She said, "Yuliana, I believe people are sentimental creatures. You have been by Madam Quartley's side for years. I am sure your relationship is better than mine."
"I think she is just spending time with me because she's afraid I'm still not used to Quartley Palace. She's still much closer to you."
These words made Yuliana feel happy.
She said, "That's right. I am her first granddaughter-in-law, after all."
"You still are," Rorita said earnestly. "And I respect you for that."
The anger in Yuliana's heart was completely gone.
Although Madam Quartley liked
Rorita, it wasn't like with Qiana. She didn't dote on Rorita like when with Qiana. Yuliana's position wasn't compromised.
And Rorita was not as dumb as Yesseca, who couldn't read the room.
After a few more words, Yuliana left happily.
Rorita didn't say anything, but Lily was unsatisfied.
Lily had been serving Rorita for many years.
Weverly was aware that Tremaine did not love
Rorita. To relieve Rorita's loneliness, she sent Lily to Quartley Palace two days ago. Lily had been standing beside Rorita, so she had heard everything.
"Madam Rorita, can't you see what she's doing? She is putting on airs in front of you." Lily had always been a straightforward person, and now she was upset for Rorita. "She keeps mentioning her place at Quartley Palace, but she doesn't act the part at all!"
Rorita didn't care about how Yuliana was doing.
On the contrary, she began to comfort Lily. "Lily, that's her business. She's not wrong either and I should respect her."
"But I feel like she wants to bully you!"
Rorita shook her head. "You think too much. And you can't always think of the bad sides to things."
Lily was so angry that she stamped her feet. "You are too nice!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Rorita's cell phone rang.
Weverly called.
Weverly's voice was full of joy. "Rorita, how's your relationship with the president lately?"
Rorita simply replied, "We're fine."
As she spoke, there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
She had been in Quartley Palace for some time already.
But they had not interact much with each other.
The times they saw each other could be counted using one's fingers.
Tremaine had always left early and came back late.
Although they shared a bedroom, she slept on the bed and he slept on the sofa.
Sometimes, she felt like chatting with him, but he would always ignore her.
Rorita had only spoken to Tremaine twice.
The first time was when she met him.
The second time was when she asked about the painting.
Weverly's smile deepened when she heard Rorita's answer. "I knew it!
he would take you to the
Festival."
Rorita was stunned.
Tremaine would take her to the Lantern Festival?
Why had she not heard of it?
