Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 740

Meanwhile, on the other side of town.

After Marguerite finished shopping for her dress, she initially planned to explore some local attractions with Frederick. She had a fondness for quirky architecture and was particularly drawn to the historic charm of old town streets.

However, after running into Maurice, she couldn't seem to enjoy anything and ended up heading back to the car with Frederick, driving towards the Tunez Tribe

area.

By this time, Frederick was no longer preoccupied and was slightly slumped in the leather seat, taking a brief nap.

Marguerite, with mixed feelings, gazed out the car window at the passing scenery, her mood visibly agitated.

The car was silent for a while until Marguerite heard Frederick's calm yet husky voice break the silence.

"Why so glum?"

Turning to him, Marguerite saw that his eyes were still closed. She sighed heavily and recounted her encounter, "I ran into Maurice and Daphne at the dress shop."

Frederick finally opened his eyes, a spark of interest in his gaze as he fixed his eyes on her.
