Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 135

Laverne's move was so out of the blue, that it left everyone baffled.

Chuck was shaking like a leaf. Laverne really had a death wish or something!

He knew Laverne was trying to stick up for Marguerite, but what was the point?

Marguerite’s pregnancy blew up the whole feud between them, and things were totally beyond repair now.

The bunch of photos. God knew where she got them from. How could they possibly put out the fire in Frederick's heart?

Chuck was red-faced and sweating buckets. He rushed over, grabbed the envelope full of photos, and stuffed it into Laverne's arms.

"Ma'am, I'm begging you! Please, don't stir the pot anymore! Marguerite's pregnant, and the kid ain't Frederick's! Do you actually think a bunch of photos can fix this mess?"

Laverne was blindsided; she was frozen in shock.

Frederick was frowning deeply, shooting her a puzzled look. His gaze flickered over the photos in her arms, then his expression turned icy and scary.

"I call you granny out of respect, because you're Yuna's kin, and I promised I'd protect you and her. But if you insist on defending Marguerite, then..."

Frederick didn't finish his sentence. Laverne was his elder, and she had once given him a bowl of hot soup. She was a benefactor, so he couldn't say anything too harsh in front of her. But he believed Laverne got the picture.

Laverne turned to Marguerite, with disbelief written all over her face, and her voice trembling. "Marguerite, is it true what he's saying?"
