Marguerite froze on the spot. She was surprised at Jocelyn's anxiety.
Jocelyn glance towards Powell, ensuring that Powell was still sound asleep before she let out a small sigh, looking at Marguerite with a complex expression.
It took a moment for Marguerite to respond, her calm demeanor was like a lake that had just been hit with a stone, instantly sinking.
For some reason, her nose felt sour, and tears began to fall one by one, "Jocelyn... What did you say? Can you, say it again?"
Jocelyn reached out to clean the tears from Marguerite's cheeks, her voice softened.
"I said, Frederick was in love with you."
Frederick had been in love with her? Marguerite suddenly recalled a dream she had one night. In the dream, Frederick confessed his love for her.
In the dream, Marguerite was ecstatic, dancing with joy while holding Frederick.
But when this became a reality, Marguerite didn't feel the excitement and joy she had in her dream. Instead, she felt more despair.
"Did he give up on confessing his feelings to me because of what happened?" she asked.
Jocelyn's eyes were heavy and filled with regret as she nodded, saying, "Yes. He had planned to confess his feelings to you at the Bluebell Bistro. He filled the restaurant with your favorite flowers and had been planning for days. But then, on the day of his confession, that incident happened. Marguerite, Frederick wouldn't go to such lengths for anyone. He truly loved you."
Why? Why was it that when Jocelyn told her all this, Marguerite felt more pain than joy?
No wonder when she reunited with Frederick a month ago, he took her to the Bluebell Bistro and mentioned that someone planned a love confession there from three years ago.
The man who bought the Bluebell Bistro due to an interrupted confession was Frederick himself!
