Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 695

At that moment, Marguerite was sipping her water when she heard a woman's voice, and she nearly choked.

Frederick glanced at Marguerite, then picked up his phone and walked over to the window to answer the call.

The woman on the phone called him Freddie?

That nickname—Marguerite had only ever heard Yuna use it before.

But she was certain, this call wasn’t from Yuna.

Otherwise, Frederick wouldn’t have that tone.

But who could she be? This woman who made the usually aloof Frederick speak with unprecedented softness.

Could his rejection yesterday have anything to do with her?

Marguerite's mind was racing.

Just then, Frederick hung up the phone, grabbed his jacket from the back of his chair, and said succinctly, “I need to step out.”

Marguerite instinctively stood up. “Where to?”

“To see Yuna’s therapist.”

Therapist?

That was unexpected.

But was it really the therapist?

Why did it sound like they’ve known each other for ages?

Marguerite was in turmoil, but Frederick was already heading to the door when he suddenly paused.

“I need to bring Violet along.”

A rock seemed to lodge itself in Marguerite’s heart. Why did he prefer taking Violet over her?

After a moment of sulking, it dawned on her that Yuna’s episodes were often triggered by Violet, so bringing her might actually help.

So, was he really going to see a therapist?

“Fine.” Marguerite sulked, then quickly changed her tune, “But I’m coming too!”

“Can I say no?”
