Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 685

Maggie's legs felt like jelly, as if she might collapse at any moment.

What did Daphne just say?

That Maurice had a vasectomy?

Meaning Teresa wasn't Maurice's daughter!

Then who was the man she had that one-night stand with?

And why would Maurice lie to her?

Maggie was desperate for answers, her heart racing almost out of control.

“You're telling me you believe Maurice got snipped just because he says so? You think his acting is that good?” Daphne snorted, stubbing out her cigarette on the ground before casually taking out a breath spray and using it right in front of Maggie.

“Looking for solid proof, huh? Let me tell you, I was there with him when he got that vasectomy. Just in case, I'll send you the medical report later. So Maggie, we'll be seeing each other again soon.”

With that, Daphne raised an eyebrow at Maggie, gave a cheeky smile, and strutted off.

Maggie was frozen in place for a long while before she remembered to leave.

How she managed to leave or how she got into Frederick's car, Maggie couldn't recall.

All she remembered was seeing Frederick alone in the car and immediately asking:

“Where's Yuna?”

“Chuck took her home.”

“Did you find anything? Was there something wrong with the vitamins?”

He shook his head: “Nothing at all. Yuna's tests came back clean; it was just a bottle of regular vitamins.”

Maggie let out a sigh of relief.

Turning to face her, Frederick buckled Maggie's seatbelt before starting the car, his tone revealing his irritation, “Why haven’t you been answering your phone?”

“I might not have heard it.”

“Didn’t you have something to tell me?”

Maggie swallowed, her throat dry, unsure of where to start, but decided to begin at the beginning.

“I just, by chance, ran into Maurice in the fire escape, but he didn’t see me. He was at the hospital looking to strike a deal with the dean, something about using microchips in healthcare.”

Frederick paused, clearly confused: “He wants to use microchips in the medical field?”
