Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 57

"Ah."

Yuna suddenly screamed, her body briefly airborne before crashing hard on the ground.

Debris was scattered around, some embedded in her arm and thigh, but the injury was not serious, only a little fresh blood was seeping out of her elbow.

Yuna's smug satisfaction quickly turned into anger, her eyes blazing red as she opened her mouth to scold, "Marguerite."

Her words abruptly stopped because Marguerite, standing in front of her, looked shocked, her eyes incredulously fixed on the doorway behind her.

Yuna slowly turned her head, casting a sidelong glance, and sure enough, she saw Frederick standing in the doorway.

She immediately shed a couple of tears, covered her elbow, and started sobbing.

"You're so ruthless! Why did you push me? It was bad enough that you copied my work, but now you've pushed me to the ground. Marguerite, do you want both my money and my life?"

Marguerite was taken aback.

What was this woman saying? Did she change her tune the moment she realized Frederick was here?

Her acting was so good, why didn't she become an actress?

Marguerite was both angry and amused. "Yuna, have you no shame? Who plagiarized whom, and why would I push you? Don't you know what's really going on?"

"Enough!" Frederick's authoritative voice echoed throughout the room. The man stepped forward, bending down to help Yuna up from the floor.

Yuna immediately threw herself into Frederick's arms, tears falling down her face. "Freddie."

The man gently rubbed Yuna's shoulder, his cold eyes darkly staring at Marguerite. "Is the confrontation you wanted just the panic and anger after being exposed?"

Marguerite's back stiffened, her nose prickled, and her frightened eyes instantly filled with tears.
