Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 456

Half an hour later. The imposing Maybach came to a commanding stop outside a nondescript building on the outskirts of the city–a private detention facility.

The back door was opened respectfully by a bodyguard, and Frederick in a slate–grey suit stepped out without a hint of emotion visible on his face. His eyes shone brightly but betrayed a bloodthirsty cruelty.

Chuck hurried over to report, “Mr. Winston, we’ve apprehended the culprit. We checked his phone–it was clean. It’s likely been tampered with by a hacker. So, there might be someone behind him.”

Frederick’s commanding voice sent a shiver down Chuck’s spine, and he couldn’t help but glance at the sign above the detention center, his face a mix of difficulty and regret as he sighed softly,

“You’ll see for yourself once you go in, Mr. Winston.”

As soon as the door swung open, Frederick caught sight of the handcuffed culprit and his eyes widened in shock.
