Chapter 547

Marguerite was groggy for a moment before the scene before her eyes started to come into focus.

She saw the worried face of Frederick looming over her, anxiety etched into his features. In that instant, a cloud of darkness seemed to engulf her entirely.

Her head was splitting, and she clutched at her temples while moaning, “I… I forgot it…”

Her emotions had been a tangled mess, and the moment she hopped into the car and revved up the engine, the thought of fastening her seatbelt hadn’t even crossed her mind.

Plus, the car was an old beater and hadn’t been serviced in ages. When her car collided with the other, not even the airbags deployed.

“How could you forget something that important? If I had arrived a second later, you would’ve died, you get that?” Frederick’s voice was stern.

Marguerite felt wronged as she was scolded, but the throbbing pain in her head left her no room to argue back.

Marguerite lifted her eyelids to meet his gaze, “Yes.”
