Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 315

Frederick's gaze was blank and unfamiliar, not even glancing towards Marguerite.

Behind Maurice's glasses were cold eyes, yet the corners of his mouth curled upwards into a smile that seemed harmless yet dangerous.

Not only that, he extended hands to hug Frederick, asking, "When did you get back?"

Frederick replied with a chuckle, "About a fortnight ago."

The casual conversation between the brothers made Marguerite feel as if she was in a different world. The tension that had just been present seemed to be nothing more than a figment of Marguerite's imagination.

Marguerite realized that compared to the two men before her, she was still a novice. She couldn't pretend to be oblivious under such circumstances.

The moment she saw Frederick, she became so nervous that she couldn't breathe.

Therefore, the one who was unable to move on was always herself. The man she had once hurt had long started a new life. Only she remained stuck in the past.

Maurice gently massaged Marguerite's shoulder, smiling blissfully.

"My daughter has been eyeing this bracelet for a long time, and she asked me to bid for it. Frederick, I heard that you and Yuna have two sons, so you must understand my concerns as a father."

Frederick, ignoring Marguerite, carried on the conversation with Maurice, "I do, but this bracelet isn't what I want."

"What?"

Robert stepped forward, sparing Marguerite a glance, "It's for me."

Maurice seemed to know everything, "Does it have something to do with your sister?"

Robert nodded, "The bracelet is a keepsake I gave to her when she was born. Only by getting this bracelet can I get the seller's information from the organizer. As you all know, our family has been looking for her for over two decades."

Marguerite was taken aback. She had no idea that Robert had a sister. And from his story, it seemed that his sister had been missing for over two decades.

Somehow, she thought of her son who was lost three years ago, and naturally felt a sense of connection with Robert. Marguerite looked up, saying softly, "Then you take it."

Robert looked at Marguerite, then at Frederick, momentarily at a loss for words.
