Realizing that the man in front of her was looking at her with a strange and profound gaze, Marguerite only then realized that her unconscious mumbling had been heard by him.
Uh...
Why did she blurt out something like that?
At this moment, Marguerite's face turned as red as a tomato, wishing she could find a hole to bury herself in.
Frederick cleared his throat, not avoiding her gaze, and deliberately said, "If you want, I have no objections. After all, I'm not at a disadvantage."
Marguerite abruptly gazed at Frederick, feeling embarrassed but also noticing something different about Frederick today.
His tone was also gentle, not deep, as if he was responding to her joke?
What happened during his trip to the Winston Mansion? Did he finally take down Maurice or something else? His mood seemed unusually good today.
Or perhaps, it was because she had been spending a lot of time with Jocelyn lately and had helped her out a lot, so Frederick was graciously willing to chat more with her.
Marguerite drained the soup from the thermos, and Frederick handed her a napkin. His voice was flat, but he subtly observed her expression, "I'll be moving back to your place starting tomorrow."
Marguerite was taken aback, "Is the Seaside Manor not comfortable?"
"No. Your grandma seems to miss me."
Oh?
Marguerite thought about how she had cried to her grandma about Yuna's pregnancy yesterday. So, was Frederick being called back by her grandma?
Marguerite hesitated as she looked at the man, feeling that his gaze was particularly strange at this moment, as if he was expecting her to make a statement.
She squinted her eyes and tilted her head, "You want me to bring grandma to pick you up?"
Frederick finally revealed a contented smile, "I don't mind."
Don't mind?
So that's what he meant.
However, Marguerite sometimes really couldn't understand some of the practices of the capitalists. For just coming home, did she really need to bring grandma and the servants with a banner to welcome him?
"What, do you have objections?"
Once again, the man guessed what she was thinking, and Marguerite felt a little annoyed.
But she didn't hide anything and explained softly, "Tomorrow, I need to take grandma to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up. There are many tests, and she needs to be hospitalized."
