Chapter 201
Bride Behind The Mask
Tuna trembled with rage upon heanng the news What? The bracelet in Margueriteâs hand was a gift from Freddieâs mother?
Thatâs impossible!
Just yesterday, she had witnessed Marguerite, that wretched woman, being escorted away by the Winston Groupâs butler.
And the news of Marquenteâs pregnancy would surely infuriate Powell, so how could Freddieâs mother possibly gift her the bracelet?
Yunaâs eyes narrowca dangerously on Marguenteâs hand, where the bracelet glowed in the sunlight.
Whether it was the texture or the radiance, the bracelet was clearly a high end piece With Marquentes destilute status, there was no way she could afford such a luxury So, was the bracelet really a gift from Freddieâs mother?
The thought ignited Yunaâs fury and she moved to slap Marguente across the face Miley instinctively stepped in front of Marguerite, shielding her from Yunaâs wrath Zoe, quick to act, grabbed Yuna and whispered harshly in her ear âCalm down! Youâre only making a fool of yourself! Act like Mr. Winstonâs legal fiancee, not someone who can be easily imitatediâ
Zoe then tumed her glare on Miley and Marguente. âDo you really expect us to believe that Mr.
Winstonâs mother just gave her a luxurious bracelet? What proof do you have?â
Miley smirked. âYou donât believe us? Why donât you ask Mr Winston himself if his mother gifted our lovely Marguente a bracelet?â
Mileyâs smugness was like a knife to Yunaâs heart. She was desperate for answers Pushing past Zoe, Yuna dashed out of the restaurant, hailed a cab and headed to the Winston Group âFinally, some peace and quiet. Letâs enjoy our lunch in peace now, shall we?â Miley said, guiding Marguente to a seat. She then turned to Zoe âArenât you going after your daughter? Sheâs long gone by nowâ
Zoeâs face twisted in anger. âMarguerite, you better watch your back. You ungrateful brat, I should have never brought you into this world!â
Meanwhile, at the Winston Groupâs office, Chuck walked in with a report for Mr Winston âMr. Winston, I have found Ms. Yunaâs necklace. It was purchased from the Graceful Light Chapel in Marina Shores Village, StarGaze Summit if lost it can be replaced by presenting the ownerâs ID card.
Here is the specific address of the chapel.â
Chuck handed over the report. Mr. Winston glanced at it and asked, âAny appointments this afternoon?â
âNone, Mr Winstonâ
Frederick stood up, took his suit jacket from the rack and draped it over his arm. âStay here. Fill handle this personallyâ
As Frederick left the office, Yuna pushed her way in. She was desperate to see Frederick, but couldnât find him.
Frustrated, she tried calling him, but her phone died before she could dial his number Cursing her bad luck. Yuna walked out of the elevator, only to be stopped by the butler who had escorted Marguente and Frederick the night before âMs. Yuna, you were the one who texted our master yesterday, werenât you?â
Yurs heart skipped a beat. She looked up to see the butler smiling at her, his calm demeanor belying a subtle threat not just anyone has our masterâs number Did you really think we wouldnât investigate the anonymous text before summoning Marguente?
face hardened âWhat are you trying to say?â
You want to be with Mr Winston, donât you? How about we make a deal?â
runas used her lips, cautious. âWhat kind of deal?â
âMs. âuna, if you would follow me, we can discuss this furtherâ
