Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 34

Now this is a head–scratcher, how did Marguerite’s grandma’s medical records end up in her mom’s hands?

Just as Marguerite was lost in thought, another text from Zoe buzzed in.

The text was an address, along with a nasty jab, “If you don’t wanna come grab your grandma’s medical records, that’s on you. It’s not like we’re gonna lose sleep over whether she kicks the bucket or not.”

Marguerite’s fingers clenched tightly around her phone.

For the sake of her grandma’s wellbeing, Marguerite had no choice but to duck out of work and dash off to Zoe’s given address.

The door swung open, and Yuna, sizing Marguerite’s plain–Jane outfit, didn’t bother hiding her disdain, her eyes dripping with arrogance.

“Marguerite, are you moonlighting behind Frederick’s back? Dressed like this and you have the gall to come to Diamond Crest Estates? How the hell did you get past security?”

Marguerite replied with a poker face, “I’m just here to pick up grandma’s medical records, then I’ll be on my way.”
