Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 61

Marguerite shivered, staring in disbelief at the woman with a sinister smile in front of her.

Her first instinct was to expose her, but Yuna suddenly held her shoulder and looked at her with a smile.

"Marguerite, let me remind you that today's judges were invited by Frederick. If you expose me in front of Frederick, are you trying to challenge his status? In other words, do you think Frederick would believe you?"

Marguerite was so angry that she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, barely managing to control herself.

Yuna was right; Frederick completely trusted her. No matter what Marguerite said, it wouldn't make a difference.

Damn it!

To frame Marguerite, Yuna really would do anything!

Marguerite turned around mechanically and sat heavily on the stool.

She had thought this would be her battlefield for a counterattack, but she hadn't expected Yuna to have dug a big pit for her already.

So, was she destined to lose today?

Soon, the perfume blending competition began on time.

The two blending tables were very close, but there was an opaque screen in the middle, so neither of them could see the other's operation.

Even though the outcome was obvious, Marguerite was neither discouraged nor did she back down.

Her experiences growing up had shaped her character to face difficulties. Even if she knew she was bound to fail, she would seize every possible opportunity.

She carefully took out the original floral materials and ground them, then dried them with a mini dryer, set up the distillation vessel, and used the extraction distillation method to refine the liquid.

Every step was perfect, without any mistakes.

On the other side, Yuna was not panicked.

She had watched a documentary on perfume making last night and remembered all the steps.

She even thought that making perfume was quite simple, just follow the steps and mix the ingredients in the formula.

What's so hard about that?

If she had known this earlier, she would have made a perfume for Frederick herself. The scent would definitely be much better than what Marguerite made.

At this moment, the judges came down to observe their work.

They didn't linger in front of Marguerite, all the judges gathered behind Yuna, occasionally chatting and nodding in approval.

They tried to create the impression that Yuna was more professional and capable than Marguerite.

Yuna noticed everyone's expressions. Knowing that she held the winning card, she quickly raised her face with pride and then looked at Marguerite with contempt.
