Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 431

Yuna froze on the spot, as the servants once again caught a whiff of juicy gossip.

"So, the midnight snack was made by Mr. Frederick? But didn't Ms. Marguerite just admit that she also had a midnight snack?"

"They had it together last night!"

"What! Mr. Frederick cooked for Ms. Marguerite? This is big gossip! No wonder Ms. Yuna is throwing a fit this morning!"

The chattering of the servants made Yuna furious. She was even more livid that Frederick would lie in public, making her the laughing stock to save Marguerite.

She hastily got up from the floor and rushed to find Frederick. But she accidentally stepped on a spot of oil on the floor and stumbled right into the man's feet.

Several servants couldn't hold back their laughter as Yuna took a tumble. But Yuna didn't care, she managed to get up, grabbed Frederick’s shoulders firmly.

“Freddie, I know you don't like to stir up trouble, but Marguerite intentionally set me up, and you are still defending her at this point? Last night... you were with me all night! When did you have time to go downstairs and make a midnight snack?”

She deliberately made it sound ambiguous, leading everyone to believe that something had happened between them last night.

Frederick lowered his gaze, his expression complicated, "Last night..."

Just as he was about to spill the truth, Yuna quickly leaned in, whispering in his ear, “Freddie, Maurice and Marguerite are so close, and they teamed up to bully me. Can you really stand by and watch? They are targeting me because they don't dare to confront you directly!

They don't respect you at all! They just want to make your life miserable at this mansion! And they want to push you out of the Winston Group. Can you swallow this insult?”

From a third-person perspective, Yuna whispering in Frederick's ear looked especially intimate.

Marguerite couldn't hear what they were saying, but she felt devastated.

She didn't need to guess to know that Frederick would definitely stand up for Yuna.
