Bride Behind The Mask Novel

Chapter 599

Marguerite was too strong for her own good, strong to the point that it even made her own heart ache. But she swallowed her emotions, given that Penelope was Yuna’s mother, she couldn’t very well vent her frustrations to someone else’s mom.

Marguerite shook her head, mustering a strained smile, “Thanks, Penelope. I’m really grateful you let me work at Poppy Petal Fragrances. As for Yuna, I’ll just keep my distance. I don’t want to put you in an awkward spot.”

Penelope felt a lump in her throat, finding Marguerite’s maturity and understanding beyond her years both admirable and heartbreaking,

It’s hard to tell how many people have exploited this, attacking and causing her harm.

As Penelope walked away, Marguerite bumped into Frederick.
