Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 781

She shook her head, her brain swirling into dizziness, leaving her no choice but to slump onto the desk for a brief respite.

Mr. Perry, already at his wits' end with Marguerite, suddenly harbored sinister thoughts.

"If I could get this woman into bed, it wouldn't just be a devastating blow to her personally."

He could also use the affair to blackmail her, squeezing out a hefty sum in the process!

Thinking this, Mr. Perry's eyes gleamed rat-like as he naturally rose to help Marguerite from her seat, saying:

"Mr. Ward, please go ahead and eat. I'll find a place for her to rest and come back later."

Silas, however, grabbed his hand in a firm grip, his thin lips uttering three words: "Don't touch her."

Feeling the threat from the man, Mr. Perry's body jolted.

"Mr. Ward, what do you mean? She's had too much to drink; she needs to rest."

Silas simply pulled Marguerite into his arms, "I'll take her."

Mr. Perry was fuming!
