Bride Behind The Mask

Chapter 37

The guy took his eyes off her. He kept dialing Marguerite’s number, but no one answered.

Yuna glanced at his phone and saw Marguerite’s name flashing on the screen. She was pissed off. Why was he still thinking about Marguerite when he’s with her?

That woman was so annoying! Once she was gone, Frederick wouldn’t think about her anymore!

With a roll of her eyes, Yuna flagged down a waiter, hoping to divert Frederick’s attention.

“Check, please.”

The waiter nodded politely, placed the bill next to Frederick, and gently asked, “Sir, your total is 480 dollars. Would you like to pay in cash or by card?” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Snapping back to reality, Frederick responded succinctly, “Card.”

After quickly settling the bill, Yuna grabbed her purse. She leaned on Frederick’s shoulder, and said, “Frederick, let’s go to Grandeur Square Mall. It’s our first date, and I’m so excited.”

Frederick, however, was still trying to reach Marguerite. He shook his head and pushed Yuna away, keeping a distance.

“Sorry, I’ve got something to do this afternoon. I may not be able to accompany you today.”

Then Yuna’s face turned pale.

He had promised that he would spend the whole afternoon with her, and now he suddenly claimed to be occupied. Was he going to see Marguerite?

Yuna lowered her eyelids, feigning a hurt look. “Frederick, you promised to keep me company. Are you really going to leave me alone for Marguerité?”

Frederick turned to look at her, and Yuna’s tears immediately fell.

heard you when you were on the phone. Frederick, know Marguerite is your wife in name, but I am your girlfriend. Am I not as important as Marguerite in your heart?”

Her eyes filled with tears, and she looked pitiful.

Frederick frowned. He hated it when women cried at the drop of a hat.

But he realized that he had indeed neglected the woman in front of him.

t

Was Marguerite really more important to him than Yuna?

No! Absolutely not!

He needed Marguerite’s formula to apply for a patent for the company, and he was only interested in the benefits Marguerite could bring to the

company.

Frederick hugged Yuna, gently patting her back to comfort her.

“Who could be more important than you? If it weren’t for the company’s need, I wouldn’t care about her.”

Yuna was thrilled. “Really, Frederick? Even if Marguerite dies, does it matter to you?”

Frederick nodded, “No.”

Suddenly, he smelled a faint scent from Yuna’s neck.

That scent was exactly like the Polar Radiance perfume designed by Marguerite.

Frederick gently pushed Yuna away, then stared at her. “Did you wear perfume today?”

Yuna was about to reply, but she didn’t say a word. She did wear perfume, but it was Marguerite’s!

Yuna realized something and quickly shook her head, widening her eyes in innocence.

“Frederick, do you smell anything on me?”

Frederick looked at her with a complex expression. “Yes.”

“That’s my body scent.”

Frederick hesitated, then had a sudden realization.

He was sure that Yuna was the girl he had a one–night stand with, so this scent was indeed her body scent.

He had always been curious as to why Yuna’s body scent was exactly the same as the Polar Radiance perfume designed by Marguerite.

However, the most important thing now was to find Marguerite and get the formula. Other matters could be set aside for now.

Without saying anything else, Frederick left in a hurry.

Yuna watched his retreating figure with narrowed eyes.

13:10

She remembered Frederick asking her more than once whether she had worn perfume that night.

Today she wore Marguerite’s perfume, and he asked again.

It seemed that Marguerite attracted Frederick that night using that perfume,

She finally understood that Frederick didn’t really love Marguerite.

What he was infatuated with was probably just the scent of Marguerite!

This realization excited Yuna. She called Zoe as soon as she left the restaurant and said urgently,

“Mom, get the bottle of perfume from my vanity. The light green one. It’s a sample.”

Zoe walked to the vanity. She found the perfume sample and said, “Isn’t this Marguerite’s?”

“Mom! Marguerite seduced Frederick with this perfume! Now help me get this perfume. With this perfume, I can definitely capture Frederick’s heart!”

Zoe immediately agreed. “I’ll find it for you right away.”

Yuna smiled in satisfaction and added, “Mom, Marguerite is about to die, right? Tell the guys at Marina Shores Village to speed up the plan to kill her. Don’t hold back.”

Yuna thought, “Since Frederick doesn’t care if Marguerite is alive or dead, why not just get rid of her now and dump her body in the wilderness? No one will find her, and no one will suspect me. Given my current status in Frederick’s eyes, even if he knew it was me, he wouldn’t be angry. No! How could Frederick possibly know about this? I just met him and acted like the perfect girlfriend. Frederick thought was kind and innocent, and he would never suspect me.

Thinking of this, Yuna laughed.

She seemed to have already seen Marguerite’s pitiful state and her own bright future.
