Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 87

In fact, Marguerite was aware all along that Frederick was investigating Laverne.

Back then, she accidentally let her mask slip and the man mistook her for Yuna, saying that he was looking for Laverine.

Marguerite never interfered, knowing that once Frederick found her grandma, the Lockwood family could no longer use her as leverage.

Now that he had found her grandma, and once she regained consciousness, her ties with the Lockwood family would be crystal clear.

Since he would find out sooner or later, she might as well spill the beans.

The fact that she and Yuna were twins, as well as her being forced to wear a mask, she'd tell him everything.

"What do you mean?" His handsome face turned pale, and he pressed on, asking, "Explain."

Marguerite stared at him, "Actually, Yuna and I are..."

"Bang--"

A loud door slam cut Marguerite off. She was about to say that she and Yuna were twins, but her words got stuck in her throat. Then, a heartbreaking cry filled the room:

"Grandma!"

"Mom!"

Before they could see who it was, Yuna rushed to Laverne's bedside, followed by a sobbing Zoe.

"Wake up, grandma! It's me, Yuna! What's wrong with you? Open your eyes and look at me!"

"Mom, Ablett and I came to see you. What happened to you? ...We're too late..."

The room was filled with noise. Chuck walked in from the doorway, Frederick asked with a frown, "What took you so long?"

Chuck wiped off some sweat, looking at Yuna and the others, "Ablett said there was a traffic jam on the way, so we were delayed."

"Did you tell them about the old lady's condition?"

Chuck shook his head, "No, I didn't dare. I was afraid they'd be shocked."

"So why are they crying as soon as they walked in?"

It was as if they had known about Laverne's condition beforehand.

Chuck thought for a moment, "Maybe my serious expression gave it away."

Frederick waved his hand dismissively, "Close the door."

"Okay, Mr. Winston."
