Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 112

"Granny, what on earth are you doing here?" Marguerite asked in surprise, "Did you come by yourself?"

Laverne was dressed gorgeously today, wearing a floral blouse with black silk trousers, glowing with radiance.

"No, silly, I didn't come by myself. How could I possibly find this place on my own? I was dropped off by the driver!"

Laverne smiled warmly before saying, "Dr. Steven told me I had a follow-up appointment today. Weren't you supposed to take me to the hospital? Did you forget?"

It then hit Marguerite like a ton of bricks. She slapped her forehead in self-reproach, her face turning pale, "I'm sorry, I've been swamped these past few days and totally forgot."

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's get a move on!"

Laverine stood up from her office chair and gave her seat to Frederick.

Marguerite glanced at him, thinking back on the heated argument she had with Steven a few days ago. She tentatively asked, "What about the meeting this afternoon..."

"I've postponed it for you."

There was no emotion on Frederick's icy face, which made Marguerite a little scared.

She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you want to come to the hospital with me?"

"No."

"Aren't you worried about what would happen between Steven and me?"

Marguerite was becoming weary from the constant arguments with him because of Steven.

Since she hadn't done anything wrong, she might as well take this paranoid man with her.

Frederick looked taken aback for a moment before a smirk appeared on his face, "Just keep things under control."

Not giving much thought to what Frederick's smirk could mean, Marguerite silently prepared to leave with her granny. However, Laverne was mumbling.

"This handsome guy, is he really jealous? How petty!"

Frederick was speechless.

Chuck almost burst out laughing upon hearing this.

Laverne was clever, but saying he was jealous in front of him was just too much!

Half an hour later, at Stonebridge Memorial Hospital.

Marguerite took Laverne to Steven's office. He had his assistant, Janie, take the old lady for various tests.
