Chapter 161
Bride Behind The Mask
After Frederick stepped out Sade humedly fetched a brand new set of pajamas for him to take in Once Levene was done. Sadie helped her hathe in warm water, then moved her into a wheelchair and wheeled her out Fredericks face was icy, his silence chilling to the bone Sadie bent down, asking with concern, âMaâam, you cried out in pain earlier Where does it hurt? Is it severe?â
Laveme nodded tearfully. It hurts! My back is in pain, my legs are numb, but itâs a bit better now. Iâve troubled you all, please go restâ
Frederick stood still, repeating. âWhat exactly happened?â
Despite hot expression, Sadie could tell this was the calm before the storm for Mr. Winston.
âFreddie, I âQuietâ Yunsâs words completely infuriated Frederick. He turned to Laverne, his fist clenched until his knuckles tumed blue, âMy lady, you tell meâ
âLavemo hesitated, glancing at Yuna Her careful demeanor was as if she dared not speak.
Frederick shot Yuno a fierce glare, stepped forward, and knelt on one knee beside Laveme, âYou can tell me without worry. No one in this mansion will dare to threaten youâ
Seeing Yuna trembling, Laverne managed a magnanimous smile.
âDonât blame Yuna, itâs my fault. I needed to use the bathroom, but Yuna was asleep. I called her for a long time, but she didnât wake up. I couldnât hold it in andâ¦I wet myself. Before I could clean up, I woke this child up, and asked her to take me to the bathroom. She might have been reluctant, so I tried to crawl there myself. I fell when i tried to get off the bed.â
Lavemeâs tone was submissive as wetting oneself was not a matter of pride Frederickâs anger erupted, he stood up abruptly, glaring at Yuna Yuna thought Frederick was going to hit her and out of fear, she collapsed to the floor.
âFreddie⦠Granny just said it wasnât that I didnât want to take her to the bathroom, itâs just that I was asleep when she wet herself, I. I didnât have timeâ¦â
âOh?â Frederickâs eyebrows twitched, his tight lips revealing bared teeth, looking as ferocious as a hunting wolf.
âAnd after you woke up? You just watched her crawl to the bathroom? Yuna, this is your grandmother!
Your own grandmother!â
Laverne had been causing her trouble all day, she had been holding in her resentment. Now, she couldnât hold it in any longer, and complained angrily.
âFreddie, you donât know, Granny is really troublesome. She treats me like a maid! And sheâs all covered in urine, so smelly and dirty! When have I ever been treated like thisâ*
Yunaâs petulant tone only made Frederick more displeased, and Sadie shook her head, unable to hold back her words.
âWhen Marguerite took care of Maâam, she was willing to do any tiring or dirty work. If she were here today, she would never complain about Maâam.â Marguerite, Marguerite!
Why was everyone speaking up for her?
Witch!
Yuna glared at Sadie fiercely, âMarguerite is nothing but a lowly bitch! Sheâs willing to even carry bedpans for people!â
Frederickâs face was as cold as ice, his teeth clenched, his anger raging in his bloodshot eyes.
Lowly bitch?
Bedpans?
How could this woman utter such filthy words?
Sadie didnât intend to save Yunaâs face anymore, and sarcastically retorted, âMs. Yuna, donât forget, it was Mr. Winston who carried Maâam to the bathroom, despite her unneâsoaked clothes. So, according to your logic, is our Mr. Winston also a lowly man?â
Yuna felt threatened, her heart beating fast. She shook her head repeatedly. âI didnât mean that! I really didnât! I⦠I was talking about Marguente!â
âIf you canât take care of Laveme properly, go back to Diamond Crest Estates tomorrow.â
Frederickâs frosty voice left Yuna in tears.
âNo, Freddie! I only just arrived today, I donât want to go back so soon! The neighbors will laugh at me!â
âThatâs your problem.â
âFreddie. â
âGet out! I better not see you in the mansion when I wake up tomorrow.â
Frederickâs ruthless attitude cut off all of Yunaâs possibilities.
At that moment, Laverne, sitting in the wheelchair, sighed softly, her words revealing a sense of loss.
I never thought my own granddaughter would treat me worse than Marguente Itâs dishearteningâ¦
After saying this, she glanced at Frederick Frederick looked conflicted, it was clear he had taken Laverneâs words to heart.
