Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 727

After three years of keeping secrets, the truth finally came to light in a raw and emotional revelation.

Marguerite's feelings were in turmoil.

Every possible emotion-shock, joy, anger-rushed at her all at once, leaving her momentarily overwhelmed.

In the midst of this emotional storm, Hayes ran into Marguerite's arms, his voice soft and childlike: "Mommy! So you really are my mommy!"

Marguerite's heart melted, and she bent down to embrace Hayes.

The little boy's delicate features and his bright, eager eyes were filled with excitement and surprise.

But Marguerite's heart also ached.

She felt deep sorrow for the mistreatment Hayes had suffered under Yuna's care.

The pain of knowing her son had been right in front of her all this time, and she hadn't known, was almost too much to bear.

She hugged him tighter, her voice breaking, "Honey, let's never be apart again, okay?"

Hayes eagerly nodded in Marguerite's arms, "Okay!"

As things reached this point, Yuna gave up any pretense of struggle.
