Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 329

Teresa hopped into the car with Frederick, and Hayes, all smiles, immediately linked his arm with hers.

Although the little boy still couldn't express his joy verbally, the light in his eyes spoke volumes more than words ever could.

For the first time in three years, Frederick was witnessing such an unabashed display of happiness from Hayes.

Things were looking up, and he was confident that with Teresa's assistance, Hayes would soon start talking again.

He was, however, taken aback by Teresa's constant gaze since they got in the car. One of her hands was held by Hayes while the other rested on her cheek, a picture of contentment. Her eyes didn't blink once.

Especially those focused eyes, that looked like they were trying to see right through him.

Teresa's behavior amused Frederick, who found her inherently endearing.

So, he couldn't resist pinching her soft cheek and asked playfully, "Is there something on my face?"

Teresa replied with an incredibly sweet voice, "You have a pretty face."

This comment sent the driver and Chuck, who had been trying to hold back their laughter, into fits of giggles.

The atmosphere in the car was light, but Teresa was nursing a major question in her heart.

With her soft little hand wrapped around the man's pinky finger, she asked seriously, "Sir, have you ever had a daughter?"

Frederick smiled and replied, "No."

His answer made Teresa go pale, her big eyes filled with disappointment and hurt.

If Hayes' daddy never had a daughter and her daddy Maurice didn't look like the person she had imagined, where did she come from?
