Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 774

Hayes's eyes sparkled with an unusual brightness.

He opened his mouth, eager to say something, but then a rush of excitement seemed to take over.

But when he tried to speak, what came out was, "Because... she's the new girl... I'm just... curious..."

Marguerite had thought Hayes felt the same way she did, that Margot reminded him of Teresa.

When she had first seen Margot at the office, Marguerite couldn't help but be reminded of Teresa.

Marguerite couldn't help but smile wryly at her own foolishness.

This girl, Margot, was nothing like her Teresa. How could she even make such a comparison?

Marguerite dismissed her own thoughts, while Hayes was equally conflicted.

He had been about to reveal the secret of his mysterious online friend.

He couldn't shake the feeling that there was some connection between his online friend and Margot.
