Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 557

Marguerite’s body tensed, a flicker of shock passing through her wide, watery eyes. But it was quickly replaced by a sharp stab of pain.

Frederick had set up a date to marry Yuna? He was actually doing it?

And to add salt to the wound, he planned to tie the knot on the same day as her?

Marguerite wasn’t sure if she should believe Maurice, but one thing was certain: his timing in delivering this news was a calculated move to even the score between them.

“Well, isn’t that just peachy? A double celebration.”

Maurice’s face fell, a gloom enveloping him as he fought to mask his emotions.
