Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 573

Marguerite had every right to be skeptical since she wasn’t clued in on the whole story.

Miley, on the other hand, felt a twinge of guilt. They had zeroed in on Marguerite and Yuna as their prime suspects solely because of the portrait Teresa had drawn.

If it weren’t for the uncanny resemblance between the Marguerite and Yuna, which made it impossible to distinguish who was who in the portrait, they probably would have gotten to the bottom of things by now.

And Miley’s guilt stemmed from a promise she had made to Teresa to keep her talent as a portrait artist under wraps.

Now, with Marguerite pressing her for answers, Miley was torn about whether to keep holding onto this secret.

But Teresa was always a bit odd in her ways.

Being a portrait artist wasn’t some disreputable job, and Miley couldn’t fathom why the kid would opt to hide this from Marguerite.

If she’d had such a skill at Teresa’s age, she would have been trumpeting her talent all over town instead of hiding it like Teresa.

Miley couldn’t guess what the kid was thinking, and from her grown-up perspective, it didn’t seem like such a big deal. There really wasn’t a need to keep it under wraps any longer.
