Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 197

Lavere chuckled, “I only realized this moming that my leg was fine But that’s not the point. You have to make a good impression on the young man’s mother Here, wear ther

The old woman pulled out a white dress, n Uneck, knee–length that exuded a sense of grace and elegance

Trust me, elders love thus kind of outfit Since you can’t wear makeup, you can only rely on your clothes”

Laverne had necked earlier, most human skin masks were made of silicone, makeup wouldn’t stick!

Marguerita was even more confused, “Grandma, how did you know I can’t wear makeup?”

She always felt that the old lady was strange today. Her numb legs recovered unexpectedly, and she even knew that her face couldn’t hold makeup?

What’s going on? Could it be that she’s overthinking again?

Laverne swallowed, feeling guilty as hell

Damn it, the was always careful, but she made mistakes today!

Luckily she was quick–witted, changing the subject and explaining. “Why would you wear makeup while you’re pregnant? It’s not good for the baby! Now don’t delay, hurry up and change your clothes, or you’ll be late!”

Before Murguente could react, she was pushed towards the bathroom by Laverne

Tums out, this dress really flattered Marguerite’s figure, giving her an air of a well–bred lady.

She and Jocelyn had agreed to meet at Mystic Table in the city center. Not long after Marguerite arrived, Jocelyn showed up

She was still wearing the same dress from last night, only with a light purple gem bracelet on her wrist. Clearly, she had just rushed over from the hospital

Upon seeing this, Marguente promptly stood up to greet her, “Hello, ma’am.”

Jocelyn glanced at Marguerite’s still flat belly, gently raised her hand to signal, “No need to be formal, please sit.”

Marguerite felt uncomfortable under Jocelyn’s gaze After sitting down in a fluster, she saw Jocelyn clean the utensils.

“The dishes in the restaurant are not as clean as those at home. It’s reassuring to clean them. Plus, since you’re pregnant, you have to be extra careful when eating

out

Jocelyn placed the first set of cleaned utensils next to Marguerite, and then started to clean the second set NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Jocelyn smiled slightly, her slender hand holding the teacup was even more delicate than a young girl’s.

Marguente was feeling extremely awkward. Although Jocelyn was much more approachable than Powell, she was tense all the way through

As the younger one, she should have been the one cleaning the utensils, but she sat there as if paralyzed, watching everything unfold in front of her

“Ah. Ma am, is there something you wanted to talk about?” Marguente finally couldn’t hold it in and gathered the courage to ask.

Jocelyn looked at Marguente with a smile, her expression as calm as a placid lake. “You seemed quite bold last night, why so nervous today?”

How could she not be nervous? She was bold last night because Frederick was there!

Now she was alone, unsure of Jocelyn’s intentions. It was only normal to feel nervous

Ma’am, did Mr. Powell ask you to come?”

It has nothing to do with him” By then, Jocelyn had finished cleaning all the utensils, had the waiter get some tea, and then filled a cup for Marguente

Margarite took a few sips of the tea, and then heard the gentle voice of Jocelyn

Marguente i saw how you protected Frederick last night, and I appreciate your care for him. But you’ve seen the situation in our family. If you and Frederick want to be together im afraid it’s going to be tough”

“Maarn, you misunderstood.”

Whether it was Miley’s previous investigation into the Winston Group’s relationships, or last night’s experience, Marguente knew that Jocelyn was very protective ef Frederick

The relationship between Jocelyn and Frederick was definitely not like that between Frederick and Powell. At least, they could still contact freely

Therelor Marguerite didn’t want to lude anything from Jocelyn and explained without hesitation, “Ma’am, actually, what I said last night was just to help hum pess off his dad There were all Mr. Powell’s people in the ward If I didn’t stand up, he would have been all alone”

Jocelyn locked up suddenly, looking at the kind girl in front of her, she felt a bit of admiration.

Seeing how you took a stand for Frederick against his father last night, I knew I didn’t misjudge you Marquente, I feel quite relieved leaving Frederick to you
