velation impat remain a secret.

Butthen, how could Steven, who was entirely outside the perfume industry, know of this?

Maiguente rouldn't help but tense up, her eyes widening in slack, scrutinizing him as if trying to see through to the truth.

Svin, however, didn't display the panic the expected. His gaze was calm, his expression indifferent.

Marguente could discem nothing from his demeanor

After a prolonged state Steven lightly touched his nose and chuckled.

"You know, I attend almost every high society party in town. You hear a lot of gossip Naturally, you learn things"

I was an answer that held up under scrutiny.

Marguente recalled Steven mentioning that these upscale parties usually had a few doctors on hand in case of emergencies

So, he must have heard this news at one of those events?

Marguerite mused over this, forcing a strained smile and replying. 'Steven, not all gossip should be believed"

Steven remained unperturbed. "Marguerite, I have studied psychology, and have established several psychology clinics go abroad"

Marguente was bewildered "I'm mentally sound, and I wouldn't go abroad for treatment"

"Your reaction just now said it all"

Steven flashed a wolfish grin, his white teeth sending a shiver down Marguerite's spine. "So Mr. Winston has indeed lost his sense of smell, hasn't he? You know it, and you cant fool me" Suddenly Marguerite found Steven's gaze to be even sharper than Frederick's.

She didn't know if Steven was applying his psychological training to her, but his questions felt incredibly manipulative

Luckily, Marguerite managed to keep her composure She yanked the IV needle from her arm, slipped out of the bed, and briskly headed out.

The IV isn't finished yet, where are you going?"

Where could she go?

She needed to replace Miley and see if it was possible to restore the deleted photos from her phone!

If even Steven, an outsider, knew about Frederick's loss of smell, surely Maurice, who viewed Frederick as his lifelong nemesis would know as well? She feared that Maurice might seize this opportunity to harm Frederick

She was in a hurry!

Marguente turned at the doorway. "Steven, you'll keep our conversation today a secret, right?"

Steven, hands in his pockets, met Marguente's gaze without hesitation. "Yes"

Marguente nodded. "I trust you Steven. I hope you don't betray my trust"
