Bride Behind The Mask Novel

Chapter 32

Marguerite felt super awkward to walk with Frederick, so she dawdled at her desk for a bit before she finally headed to the CEO’s office

By then, Frederick was at his desk, with a tablet in one hand, his fingers sliding across the screen.

Robert was lounging on the sofa, his eyes viewing around, which freaked Marguerite out.

Frederick seemed so engrossed in his tablet that Marguerite didn’t dare to interrupt him. She just stood silently by his side, like a kid who had done something wrong.

The tense silence was making Robert really antsy.

He could understand Frederick’s stubbornness, but how could Marguerite be so thick? Did his reminder yesterday go in one ear and out the other?

Robert couldn’t help but say in a laid–back tone, “Marguerite, Mr. Winston solved your issue, don’t you think you should thank him?”

Marguerite’s eyes lit up. Although she didn’t understand why Frederick helped her, she knew she should say thanks regardless.

She blushed and said sincerely, “Thanks, Mr. Winston.”

“Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t do it for you.” Frederick’s cold voice came out of the blue, right after Marguerite finished her sentence.
