Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 350

Frederick looked stiff as a board, a man who had never tasted the bitterness of embarrassment, but was now caught in a whirlwind of awkwardness, by a three- year old little girl.

Teresa grinned at him and said something that plunged him further into discomfort, "Don't worry, Hayes’ daddy. I won't spill the beans to Hayes."

With that, she sat back down, looking pleased as punch.

Frederick's meticulously groomed eyebrows knitted together, a clear sign of his discomfiture.

"You misunderstood."

But Teresa wouldn't take that for an answer. She turned away, her sparkling eyes full of stubborn determination, "I saw it from the window. I strained my eyes just to make sure!"

Frederick was speechless.

Chuck and Hayes shared a look, their curiosity piqued. What were these two going on about? They couldn't make heads or tails of it.

Chuck looked at them, puzzled, and voiced Hayes' confusion, "What did you see from the window?"

In unison, Frederick and Teresa replied, "Nothing!"

Chuck scratched his head, utterly baffled. "Huh? How come Mr. Winston and Teresa are in sync?" Even their tones were identical! It was downright perplexing.

Hearing this, Teresa gave Frederick a mischievous wink and a grin. Of course, they were in sync. He was her dad, after all!

After a while, they finally saw Manley emerging from the school building. He was sucking on a lollipop, stopping every few steps to take a lick, a familiar trail of snot hanging from his nose.

Once he got in the car, they headed for the Sapphire Valley Estates.

The moment Manley saw Teresa, he thought of her Vine Whip Alliance and his eyes lit up with excitement. Once Frederick had carefully wiped Manley's nose clean with a tissue, the boy couldn't contain his enthusiasm, "I wanna join the Vine Whip Alliance! If you let me, I'll let you play with my toys!"
