Bride behind the mask novel (Marguerite)
Chapter 259

Chapter 259

Laverne swiped her card with a flourish, and then they quickly returned to the hospital.

Always restlers in the hospital room, Laverne couldn't sit still. The thought of Yunn being her fath and blood made her reluctant to watch the young girt stray further and further from the right path. She thought for a moment, took out her phone, and secretly went Yuna one last text message:

[At 1 pm tomorrow, if you do not tell Frederick the truth yourself, I will do it for you.)

She did nofceive a reply from Yuna, but Frederick come instead.

Frederick rushed to the hospital as soon as he finished work, thinking that Laverne would have a check up the next morning and must be fasting. so he brought a lot of food with him. Laverne couldn't stop smiling as she sat cross-

legged on the bed, gorging herself on the food. As soon as Frederick entered the room, he noticed Yuna in her new dress, his eyes constantly dorting towards her.

Laveme, cunning as ever, had already noticed Frederick's reaction.

As she peeled an orange, she leaned over and whispered to Frederick, "Handsome, Isn't she looking good today?"

Frederick smiled shyly and looked at Marguerite, nodding slightly. "It suits her."

Laverne looked at Frederick, then shifted her attention back to Marguerite, unconsciously uttering a sigh of contentment. "If our little family could always be this happy, that would be nice." Frederick furrowed his brows at her strange words. After all, she was Yuna's grandmother and even if she had kinship for Marguerite, she wouldn't say such things about a little family without Yuna. Frederick corrected her in a joking manner, "Granny, if Yuna hears you say that, she might be upset."

The mention of Yuna made Laverne sigh.

She looked at Frederick reluctantly and patted his hand earnestly, "Handsome, our Yuna, she's too competitive and spoiled by her parents. Promise me, no matter what happens, you'll spare her some dignity. Once the truth came out tomorrow, Frederick would certainly be furious with Yuna.

Marguerite Interrupted Laverne's words with discontent, "Granny, why are you talking like you're leaving us? You're acting weird today!"

Laverne was so upset that she threw the orange peel at Marguerite, "Nonsense! I plan to live to be a hundred! Stop your baseless chatter!" Marguerite playfully stuck her tongue out at Laverne and turned around to get some water, no longer teasing her.

Frederick didn't stay for long, and the night had completely fallen.

After saying goodbye to Laverne, he got up to leave, and Marguerite walked him to the door.

The two stood at the doorway, neither of them making the first move to speak.

Frederick's gaze deepened, and for some reason, he found the woman in front of him more and more attractive, more and more likable

He licked his lips and whispered, "Call me anytime if anything happens."

"What could possibly happen? And even if I called you in the middle of the night, would you hear it?"

"I'll set up a special alert for you."

Marguerite was stunned.

A special alert?

Did she deserve Frederick to set a special alert for her?

Absolutely not!

He must be doing this because he was worried about Granny.

As she was thinking, Frederick's hand suddenly grabbed the back of her head and he unexpectedly gave her a quick peck on the forehead.

Marguerite was completely taken aback.

Why would he kiss her?

Though it was just a brief, light kiss, didn't he realize it could easily lead to misunderstanding?

Marguerite's face was a mix of emotions, but Frederick just smiled knowingly.

"You said before that we've been married for so long, but we've never lived like a regular couple. Right now, you're my wife, and that kiss was from me, your husband" This was acceptable?

Marguerite stood in place, dazed, as Frederick pinched her collagen-filled cheek and turned to leave.

Chapter 259

This was too sudden!

What did it mean?

Could it be that he, too, was developing some ambiguous feelings for her?

While Marguerite was lost in her thoughts, a doctor approached with a nurse, introducing himself politely, "Marguerite, Dr. Steven can't make it back from his trip, so I'll be handling Laverne's check- up tomorrow. My name is Jimmy."

Yuna immediately extended her hand, "Nice to meet you, Dr. Jimmy. We appreciate your help."

"Of course. I need to administer an injection of medicine to her now to help her have a bowel movement tomorrow morning. Normally, we would give an enema, but I'm worried Laverne's body won't be able to handle it, so we'll have to go with an injection."

Marguerite had no objections and immediately opened the door for Dr. Jimmy to give Granny her injection.

As he was leaving, Dr. Jimmy stopped and turned around, his face very serious.

*I have to warn you. This kind of medicine has a unique composition, so you absolutely cannot let her eat anything else, especially mangoes. Otherwise, if the drug reacts with the mango, it could cause sudder
