Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 280

"Do you know Marguerite?" This piece of information took Miley by surprise.

She never expected that Robert not only knew Marguerite but they also seemed to be close. How else could he have been invited to her grandmother's funeral?

"Tell me first, is Marguerite your best friend?" Robert asked, his eyes revealing an urgency he wasn't trying to hide.

She had been keeping Robert in the dark, not wanting him to know about the relationship between Frederick and Marguerite. But it seemed like now, she had no other choice but to admit it.

Quietly, she pulled Robert to a corner of the parking lot, whispering, "Yes, she is my best friend."

Upon hearing her answer, Robert's handsome face stiffened. What was going on?

Was it possible that all this time, the person investigating Frederick was not some stranger, but Marguerite!?

He had assumed Frederick was tangled up with another woman, only to find out that this woman was none other than his closest friend, Marguerite!

But thank heavens it was her, the best possible outcome.

However, he couldn't understand. "Why? They're together every day, why would there be a need for a secret investigation?"

Faced with Robert's question, Miley's brain began to work in overdrive. "Are you Marguerite's friend, or Mr. Winston's?"

"Of course, Frederick and I have been friends since childhood, and I only met Marguerite after she started working at LuxeScents International."

Since Robert was one of Frederick's people, should she tell him the truth? Frederick probably didn't know that Marguerite's investigation had something to do with the mask.

But since her grandmother had passed away, the Lockwood family wouldn't threaten Marguerite anymore. So, telling Robert the truth shouldn't be a problem, right?
