Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 226

Frederick's missing?

"What happened?" Marguerite's reaction was even more frantic than Hannah's.

"The PR team just came by and Mr. Winston took off with his car keys. We've been waiting and there's no sign of him. His cell's off, Chuck even went to Sapphire Valley Estates to look for him, but no luck."

Marguerite's brain was spinning as she tried to think of where Frederick might be, "What about the Seaside Manor? Did anyone check there?"

"We did! He's not there either! What should we do, Ms. Lockwood? Without Mr. Winston, the PR team is hesitant to act. The Internet is raging, everyone is demanding an explanation. The golden time of PR crisis management is 24 hours, if we miss this window, no matter what we say, it'll be useless!"

When it rains, it pours.

Frederick, a man known for his decisiveness and ability to face challenges head-on, had disappeared. It was clear that this crisis had hit him hard.

"Don't panic, consult with the PR firm on an executable plan, I'll go find him. We need to act on both fronts, we can't afford to waste any time."

Hannah hung up in a hurry, leaving Marguerite at a loss of what to do next.

She was barely able to handle the Polar Radiance perfume project on her own, let alone manage a company-wide crisis. All she could do was try to stabilize the employees' morale, but she was helpless when it came to anything else.

The only thing she could do was to find Frederick.

But where could he be?

Marguerite suddenly realized that despite her love for him, she hardly knew him. She had been living with him for two months and yet, she had no idea where he might be.

What about a month from now?

After their divorce, if he didn't want to see her, she would never be able to find him.

Oddly enough, the more Marguerite thought about it, the more fearful she became.

She didn't know when she started to fear losing Frederick so much.

Marguerite shook her head in frustration, scolding herself for wallowing in sentimentality at such a critical time.
