Bride Behind The Mask Novel

Chapter 610

The room was thick with tension, and Ablett and Zoe stood frozen in place, their hands still clenched around Marguerite’s as if they had forgotten to let go.

With a confident stride, Frederick approached the Abletts, towering over them, his voice cool but commanding, “Let her go.”

Startled as if facing an adversary, the Abletts quickly released their grip.

Miley immediately straightened Marguerite’s shoulders, inspecting her for injuries, “Are you okay, Marguerite? Are you hurt?”

During the tussle between Miley and the Abletts, Marguerite had been jostled about so much that she felt as if her bones were about to come apart.

Rubbing her sore arms, she offered a rueful smile, “I wasn’t hurt, but I feel like I’m about to fall to pieces.”

Miley tenderly massaged her arms, then cast a reproachful glance at Frederick, complaining, “Mr. Winston, where on earth have you been? We’ve been out here forever. If you’d been any later, Marguerite would’ve been taken by them!”
