Chapter 739

Marguerite's voice was tinged with a roar, her petite frame trembling

uncontrollably from sheer anger and excitement.

Maurice looked at Marguerite, his face a complex mix of emotions. Until this moment, he had no idea that the web of lies he had spun was already unraveled by Marguerite.

His tone remained calm, but his displeasure was evident:

"Drama?"

Marguerite felt like she had just heard the joke of the century, pointing at two reports on the floor, her smile dripping with sarcasm.

"Why don't you take a good look at what's on the floor before you talk to me?"

Maurice's eyebrows furrowed as he glanced at Marguerite, then bent down, his slender fingers picking up the reports from the floor, his eyes quickly scanning them.

Marguerite saw his gaze shift from disdain to doubt, and then to anger. Yet, the man's expression remained largely unchanged throughout.
