Bride Behind The Mask Novel

Chapter 84

Back then, the BMW on the street was already revving up.

Ten minutes later, the car pulled up in front of the barbecue joint across from Stonebridge Memorial Hospital.

Miley was meticulously picking out dishes from the menu, ordering a bunch of barbecue stuff and a side of dipping sauce.

Across the table, Marguerite was all sulky and droopy, looking like a wet blanket.

“What’s eating you? Someone giving you a hard time?”

Marguerite tried not to think about Frederick, but his snobbish and crude demeanor kept popping up uninvited in her mind.

Marguerite felt like she was stuck in a funk, her resolution to leave him growing stronger by the minute.

“Miley, can you lend me some dough?”

To make her exit, she needed to settle the whopping half a million she owed him.

And Miley was the only one she could turn to.

Hearing this, Miley instantly dropped her chopsticks and said, “I can wire it to you, how much do you need? Ten grand? Twenty grand? Or thirty grand?”

Marguerite looked at her, feeling sheepish, and held up five fingers.

“Fifty grand?” Miley was taken aback, “Sure.”

Marguerite said in a soft voice, “Miley… it’s half a million.”

Miley was startled.
