Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

An hour later, at the modern tower’s bistro.

Yuna had just taken a tumble out of the elevator, ruining the fur-trimmed dress she had so carefully chosen for the evening. As a result, she had to go to the mall for a quick change of clothes, which made her half an hour late to the restaurant.

Robert was perched by the window, his disdain palpable as Yuna came into view.

Hackett observed Robert’s behavior with a frown and whispered a stern warning, “Today marks the anniversary of your mother and me. For the sake of our celebration, try to be decent to your sister.”

Robert chose to ignore her, sullenly sipping his drink.

Hackett shot him a displeased look before turning to Yuna, his expression softening as he reassured her, “Go ahead! Of course, you can sit there! We’re all family here!”
