Chapter 80

In the afternoon, Marguerite took a bus to work at the Winston Group. Having skipped breakfast, she headed straight to the cafeteria with her employee card.

By then, only a few employees were in the cafeteria. Marguerite stood out like a sore thumb.

Nearly everyone was looking at her, their eyes filled with astonishment.

The dress Frederick had chosen for her was a perfect fit. The white dress hugged her slim waist and revealed her beautifully prominent collarbones.

Ignoring that unattractive face and considering just her figure, it was enough to make all her female colleagues envious.

Marguerite had always been a wallflower, always preferring to keep to herself, so all the attention was quite overwhelming.

She ordered a plate of spaghetti Bolognese, found a secluded spot, and ate her meal without lifting her eyes.

When she was the only one left in the cafeteria, her phone buzzed with a message:

“Hey babe, I’ve landed. Expect it’ll take me about half an hour to clear customs. Come get me.”

Her face lit up instantly at the message. She quickly replied, “On my way.”

The sender was none other than Miley Goldie, Marguerite’s best and only friend.
