Chapter 231

Marguerite was shocked.

Had she misheard?

Frederick intended to acknowledge her as his wife in public. And what was even more shocking was that he was going to falsely claim that the child she was carrying was his own?

Before Marguerite could recover from this shock, Robert stepped forward nodding in agreement.

Robert was already rallying the PR team to draft a new statement when Marguerite’s voice rang out, firm and clear, “No! I don’t agree!” This was a wound in her heart that would never heal. She was carrying a child out of wedlock, and she felt that she had forever brought shame upon Frederick.

Marguerite was well aware that once Frederick decided on something, he would go through with it regardless of the consequences. But she couldn’t allow that. If this statement was released, the ignorant masses might be fooled, but what about Jocelyn?

She had already promised Jocelyn that she would divorce Frederick. If they were to publically acknowledge their relationship now, how would Jocelyn view her?
