Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 55

“What the heck are you talking about?” Marguerite was dumbfounded, her voice involuntarily rising in disbelief.

Her outburst startled the little Corgi in her arms, which leapt out and scurried away.

“Accused of plagiarism? I made the Polar Radiance myself!”

Marguerite moved forward, her face flushed with indignation and her brows deeply furrowed.

Frederick looked gloomy and silent, but his solemn manner gave off an imposing aura.

Chuck found it hard to believe Marguerite would plagiarize too, he quickly asked, “Did you ever send this perfume to other companies?”

“No! I did send out resumes to many companies in Stonebridge City, but only LuxeScents International got a sample because I was targeting the perfume competition!”

Frederick’s brows furrowed slightly, his eyes flashing coldly. “Whose formula matches Polar Radiance?”

Chuck’s gaze dropped, his thick lips trembling with nervousness. “Mr. Winston, it’s Ms. Yuna.”

Both Marguerite and Frederick were taken aback by this, their eyes wide as they turned to stare at Chuck.

Their piercing gazes were too much for Chuck, who spilled the beans. “Apparently, Ms. Yuna entered a perfume contest run by ScentSpirits Ltd. Her work was outstanding and won the gold. You can probably find the details online.”

Upon hearing this, Marguerite quickly whipped out her phone and found a trending topic about Yuna’s victory.

Without thinking, she clicked on it. The first thing that popped up was a pair of pictures.
