Chapter 188
Bride Behind The Mask
Marguerite spun around and reached for the cufflink, scrutinizing it closely. The embossed crown, adorned with tiny diamonds.
Yest it was identical)
Suddenly, she recalled the message Miley had sent her Sheâd said that this cufflink was customâmade for a rich family, impossible to find In any shop.
So, the cufflink belonged to Frederick!
This meant that the man in the security footage, the one standing with his back to the camera, was himl She knew it The silhouette, the cufflink, they were all too familiar!
Yuna suddenly lunged forward, shoving Marguerite aside and reaching for the cufflink in her palm, âYouâre stealing now, are you? Give it back, Itâs Freddieâs!â Marguerite clenched her fist, pulling back, her gaze fixed on Yuna, wordless.
Yuna glared at her, âNot giving it back, huh? Fine! Iâm calling Freddie right now! Iâll tell him youâre stealing from his house! Youâre done for, Marguerite!â âGo ahead, call him! Itâll be perfect, I want to ask Frederick why you had me put on that mask, right to his face.â
Yuna froze, rooted to the spot.
What was happening? Marguerite was going to ask Frederick why she had to wear the mask?
Did this woman know something?
Yuna felt her heart thump wildly, but she refused to back down, raising her voice, âWhat do you mean?
Stop spouting nonsense, Marguente!â
Marguerite pulled out the two snapshots of the CCTV footage from her pocket, and repeatedly slapped them against Yunaâs chest.
âA month ago, night after Frederick went to the casino, your parents came to me with the mask. So, the reason you had me wear the mask was because of Frederick, wasnât it?â
Yuna glanced at the CCTV snapshots, stunned, her lips trembling.
This woman had found out! And she even found these snapshots from the security footage.
What else did she know?
The child in her wombâ¦
No⦠Impossible!
If she knew that the child was Frederickâs, she wouldnât be standing here, confronting her At most, she was just suspecting the reason behind the mask.
Yuna felt her heart racing, but she decided to go all in, to take a gamble.
âSo what if it wasâ At that time, I had just started dating Freddie and could finally marry him, of course I had to be wary of you. We look exactly alike, what if you seduced him pretending to be me? I just didnât expect that youâd still beat me to it, becoming his wife!â
Marguente stepped closer, âThe reason you had me wear the mask couldnât have been that simple!
Youâre definitely hiding something else from me!â
Yuna stood her ground, âThatâs all there was to it! And it proves I was right, with you wearing the mask and looking hideous, you were still flirting with Freddie. What wouldâve happened if you didnât wear the mask? Iâm warning you, Marguerite, Freddie said heâs going to marry me. So, until I marry him, you better not take off that mask! Or else, Iâll make sure your grandma suffers!â
How dare shel Yuna had threatened her with her grandmother again!
She would never nsk her grandmotherâs safety, but she wouldnât let this go easily either!
The Lockwood familyâs reason for making her wear the mask couldnât have been that simple, but getting Yuna to spill the beans would be much harder.
Instead of wasting time with Yuna, she should find Miley and figure out a plan.
Marguerite clenched the cufflink in her hand and didnât return it, shooting Yuna a glowering look before turning to leave Watching Marguerite exit the dressing room, Yuna quickly peered out the window to make sure she was really leaving before letting out a sigh of relief She didnât know if Marguerite had believed her, but she couldnât let her guard down.
She had just moved into Seaside Manor with Freddie, everything was going well, she couldnât let Marguerite ruin it all.
Regaining her composure, Yuna quickly pulled out her phone and sent an anonymous text to Powell Winston:
[Mr. Powell, Marguerile is married to Mr. Winston, but sheâs carrying another manâs child and has moved back to Sapphire Valley Estates. As the head of the family, arenât you going to do something?]
