Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 159

Having Yuna tend to Laverne at the mansion was certainly not an unreasonable request.

Frederick dialed Yuna's number immediately. "Pack your bags within an hour and come stay at the mansion for a few days."

He wasn't planning on Yuna staying indefinitely, once Laverne was mobile enough, he intended to hire professional caregivers for her.

Upon hearing the news, Yuna was initially taken aback, then overjoyed. "Freddie, did I hear you right? You're inviting me to stay at the mansion?"

"I'll send someone to pick you up."

Frederick's tone was indifferent as he casually dropped a line before hanging up.

Yuna, clutching her phone, was so excited she was trembling, unable to extract herself from her joyful emotions.

Indeed, revealing Marguerite's pregnancy test report was the best move she had ever made.

With that vile woman out of the picture, Freddie seemed to care about her even more than before.

Seeing Yuna grinning like a Cheshire cat, Zoe nudged her. "What's going on? Whose call has you so excited?"

Yuna burst out laughing, "Mom and Dad, the era of my happiness is about to dawn. Freddie just asked me to move into his mansion! He wants to live with me! Mom, Dad, I need to pack!"

Yuna hopped merrily into her room, to which Zoe immediately added, "Take some matching lingerie! The kind that's subtly alluring! Lace would be best! Yuna, this is a golden opportunity, you must try to have his child!"

"I know, Mom! I've bought all of that already, just in case!"

Unfortunately, Yuna's joy was premature. When she arrived at the mansion in high spirits, only to learn of Frederick's intention, she was utterly stunned.

"Freddie, you invited me over just to take care of that old... granny?" Her tone could not hide her disappointment.

Frederick remained silent, looking at her with a cold gaze.

Laverne, however, wheeled herself forward with a jovial smile, purposely raising her voice, "You sound disappointed. What, you don't want to take care of me?"

Yuna gave Laverne a forced smile, finding the old woman's half-paralyzed state in her wheelchair quite annoying.

How was she supposed to take care of this old woman?!

Damn it!

"Granny, it's not that I don't want to. It's just that we should probably hire a professional nurse. I mean, if I'm sleeping with Freddie at night, it would be inconvenient if you needed anything."

As Yuna spoke, she cast a seductive glance at Frederick, her intentions clear.
