Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 767

Maggie was lost in a sea of sorrow, so deep that she couldn't hear anything around her.

Charlie, with ears like a hawk, picked up on the faintest sound, even though it was muffled by Hayes's sleeve covering the speaker of a kids' smartwatch.

"What's that noise?" he asked, turning his attention to Hayes.

Hayes slipped his hand behind his back, "I'll tell you when we get home. Stay with mom, I'll be right back."

With that, Hayes dashed off, leaving Charlie with a burning curiosity. He was always up for an adventure, eager to dive into whatever Hayes was up to.
