Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 871

Marguerite's brow furrowed slightly. "Sweetheart, I'm going to take care of something important. This isn't a playdate."

Hayes pouted. "But Mom, I don't want to stay at the hospital."

Manley, savoring a bite of ice cream, nodded vigorously.

"Yeah, yeah! Ms. Marguerite, the hospital's disinfectant smells awful. Hayes and I just want to keep you company!"

Hayes looked up at Marguerite, raising three fingers in a hurried oath. "Mom, Manley and I will just sit quietly to the side, or maybe play on the computer in the office next door. We promise we won't bother you!"

Jocelyn chimed in, “Marguerite, just let them come along. Robert and Miley are out, Penelope's busy with the lawyers, and honestly, they're best off with you. I'll stay here with Maurice at the hospital.”

With Jocelyn's insistence, Marguerite could only agree, albeit reluctantly.

After a quick meal, the three of them hurried out to Janie's car. Half an hour later, they arrived at Winston Group headquarters.

There was no denying it-Maurice had been rolling in success these past six months. Since the Winston Group moved to Cresthaven, they'd managed to claim an entire campus right in the heart of downtown.
