Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 739

Marguerite's voice was tinged with a roar, her petite frame trembling uncontrollably from sheer anger and excitement.

Maurice looked at Marguerite, his face a complex mix of emotions. Until this moment, he had no idea that the web of lies he had spun was already unraveled by Marguerite.

His tone remained calm, but his displeasure was evident:

"Marguerite, cut the drama, will you?"

"Drama?"

Marguerite felt like she had just heard the joke of the century, pointing at two reports on the floor, her smile dripping with sarcasm.

"Why don't you take a good look at what's on the floor before you talk to me?"

Maurice's eyebrows furrowed as he glanced at Marguerite, then bent down, his slender fingers picking up the reports from the floor, his eyes quickly scanning them.

Marguerite saw his gaze shift from disdain to doubt, and then to anger.

Yet, the man's expression remained largely unchanged throughout.

Marguerite's sense of irony grew stronger.

An actor!

Maurice was indeed a masterful actor!

His lies were exposed right to his face, yet he managed to keep his composure.

He had hidden himself well, embodying a stoic nature to the fullest!

No wonder she was always at a disadvantage; she was no match for him!

After reading the reports, Maurice acted as if nothing had happened, neatly stacking the papers and slipping them back into Marguerite's purse.

"Must've been tough keeping all that bottled up, huh?"

Marguerite was floored by his reaction.

Should she be thanking him for his understanding?

It wasn't just tough; her heart was on the verge of bursting!

Every day felt like a ticking time bomb.

So today, Marguerite was done beating around the bush with Maurice.
