By now, it seemed that there was no point in them keeping the secret any longer.
If they didn't spill the beans to Yuna and she inadvertently blew their cover, it would be the end of their family!
Moreover, the act of adopting Marguerite was far more serious than having her wear a disguise.
If they were exposed, they would be offending two of the top families in Stonebridge City!
Frederick, being Robert's friend, would never side with them!
By then, even if they ran away, Robert and Frederick would definitely hunt them down!
The couple quickly summoned Yuna to the front yard and anxiously locked the main door.
Zoe was at a loss for words.
Yuna was getting impatient, her tone was full of irritation, "What's all this about? Calling me out here and not saying anything! If Jocelyn sees us, she'll tell Freddie!"
Since they had to tell her anyway, Ablett looked around to make sure no one was around and dropped the bombshell, "The sister Robert is looking for, is Marguerite!"
Yuna was taken aback and her brain froze, unable to comprehend, "What did you just say?!"
Her high-pitched voice put the couple on high alert. Zoe, in her anxiety, scolded Yuna, "Are you trying to get us killed? Keep it down! What if that old hag Jocelyn hear us?"
Yuna rubbed her aching arm, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, "How could Marguerite be Robert's sister? Aren't we twins?"
Ablett sighed, his face twisted in distress, "Marguerite is adopted. Your mother and Marguerite's birth mother look alike, and they were pregnant at the same time. Who would have guessed that you two would look exactly the same when you were born!
When I went to adopt Marguerite, I was taken aback by her looks too!"
Yuna was unable to recover from the shock.
"Why did you bring that bitch home in the first place?"
