Chapter 277
Bride Behind The Mask
Zoe froze on the spot, taking a moment to process what she had just heard.
The call was from Chuck? And he was planning to rent out the entire restaurant to confess his feelings to someone?
But Zoo remembered what she had heard from Hammond; Chuck was a bachelor who had little interest in women. How could it be possible for him to make such a grond gesture?
Did that mean the person who was doing it would beâ¦
The mere thought made Zoe feel deliriously happy. As soon as the cashier hung up the phone, she quickly paid her bill and rushed back to Yuna.
âYunal Great news! Mr. Winston is going to confess his feelings for you in four days! I overheard Chuck making a call to the cashier. Mr. Winston has booked the entire restaurant for you, and theyâll be setting up the place in the next couple of days!â
Yunaâs eyes widened in surprise, âReally?â
âOf course! I heard it with my own ears, how could it be false? I knew it was a good thing when Laverne passed away! It has accelerated your progress with Mr Winston!â
Zoe and Yuna lightly embraced each other in shared excitement. But what Zoe didnât see was the manic happiness and arrogance in Yunaâs eyes, and the hair she had anxiously pulled from her scalp clutched tightly in her fist For the next three days, Marguente was kept busy at the funeral home, with Frederick accompanying her every step of the way.
After putting Marguente to bed late at night, Frederick would then go to the Bluebell Bistro to personally set up the place with Chuck, often working till the early hours of the morning Today was the last day.
Once Margueriteâs grandmother was laid to rest tomorrow, Frederick would bring her to the venue in the evening and candidly express his feelings for her Surrounded by roses and tulips, Frederick was growing increasingly nervous. He had never confessed his feelings to anyone before, and all of this was completely new to him He was afraid that Marguerite wouldnât like it, and also worried that she would think the setup was too cheesy. All of this made his heart flutter nervously.
At that moment, Chuck was adjusting the lights. With a press of a button, the entire restaurant was adorned with clusters of starlight, creating a highâclass and dazzling atmosphere.
Even Chuck was surprised to see this romantic side of Mr. Winston âMr. Winston, donât worry. Iâve looked through many stage designs and wedding ceremonies, both domestic and international, and none of them are as beautiful as this. I know Marguerite will love it.â
Frederick didnât respond to Chuckâs words, and Chuck asked, âMr. Winston, have you thought about what youâre going to say to Marguente tomorrow?â
Frederick finally looked up What was he going to say to her?
He hadnât thought about that. Between the funeral home and planning this grand gesture, he hadnât had time to think about it Frederickâs expression was slightly guilty, as if he felt he hadnât done enough for Marguerite.
Chuck caught on to this and said, âItâs normal for you not to know, after all, youâve never been in love!
But Iâve read romance novels! I know exactly how to confess to a woman!
You should say something like, Marguerite, I love you. My love for you is as constant as the transition from night to dawn, from dusk to the four seasons. Itâs everlastingâ
Fredenckâs expression became strange, and he scratched his nose awkwardly. âThat sounds a bit cheesy. She doesnât seem like the kind of woman who likes to hear those kinds of words.â
âMr. Winston, itâs your sincerity that counts. Marguerite will love it.â
Chuck was certain of this Overjoyed, he suddenly asked, âBut Mr. Winston, have you thought about how to deal with the baby sheâs carrying? Donât tell me youâre not bothered.â
Seeing Fredenckâs face slowly harden, Chuck quickly cut himself off.
7âm sorry, Mr. Winston I shouldnât have dampened your mood.â
To his surprise, Frederickâs mood was unusually good, âI donât mind. After today I will thoroughly investigate who hurt Marguerite. He must give her an explanationâ Hearing Frederickâs words, Chuck breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that Mr, Winston loved Marguerite more than he had let on. He had accepted everything about her, the good and the bad, and taken it all in his stride. Chuck admired Mr. Winstonâs love for Marguerite and hoped that the two of them could face the future together As they finished their final checks and prepared to leave the restaurant, Jocelyn was standing by the door, looking at them with a stein expression
