Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 368

Even the most obtuse person ought to realize, Teresa was being threatened, and the one threatening her was Yuna!

Jocelyn put down her fork and knife, swiftly moved to Teresa, scooping her up in her arms, saying with concern, “It’s okay, stop eating. How can you eat food that fell on the ground?”

Teresa, teary-eyed, looked at Yuna again, then turned away with the fear of a cornered animal..

Frederick was stunned, struggling to control the inner fury that threatened to explode. He asked Yuna in a tone laced with anger, “Did you threaten her?”

Yuna was both confused and shocked. Catching a glimpse of Teresa out of the corner of her eye, she saw the little girl grinning at her!

Damn it! She was being played by a three-year-old!

Yuna was about to spin a tale, but Teresa beat her to it, “No, she didn’t threaten me! She is very nice, she… she just… just…”

Jocelyn gently rubbed the little one’s arm, asking softly, “Just what?”

“Just… just…” Teresa was so nervous she was practically babbling. Finally, she buried her face in Jocelyn’s neck, sobbing helplessly.

“And you say you didn’t threaten her!” Frederick was livid!
