Bride behind the mask novel (Marguerite)
Chapter 280

Chapter 280

"Do you know Marguerite?" This piece of information took Miley by surprise

She never expected that Robert not only knew Marguerite but they also seemed to be close. How else could he have been invited to her grandmother's funeral?

Tell me first, is Marguerte your best friend?" Robert asked, his eyes revealing an urgency he wasn't trying to hide

She had been keeping Robert in the dark, not wanting him to know about the relationship between Frederick and Marguerite. But it seemed like now, she had no other choice but to admit it.

Quietly, she pulled Robert to a comer of the parking lot, whispering, "Yes, she is my best friend."

Upon hearing her answer, Robert's handsome face stiffened. What was going on?

Was it possible that all this time, the person investigating Frederick was not some stranger, but Marguerite!?

He had assumed Frederick was tangled up with another woman, only to replace out that this woman was none other than his closest friend, Marguerite!

But thank heavens it was her, the best possible outcome.

However, he couldn't understand. "Why? They're together every day, why would there be a need for a secret investigation?"

Faced with Robert's question, Miley's brain began to work in overdrive. "Are you Marguente's friend, or Mr. Winston's?"

"Of course, Frederick and I have been friends since childhood, and I only met Marguente after she started working at LuxeScents International."

Since Robert was one of Frederick's people, should she tell him the truth? Frederick probably didn't know that Marguente's investigation had something to do with

the mask.

But since her grandmother had passed away, the Lockwood family wouldn't threaten Marguente anymore. So, telling Robert the truth shouldn't be a problem, night? Miley was about to speak when she noticed She glanced at him, lowered her voice, and decided to make a deal with Robert. "You want to know the truth? Fine, but it's going to cost you."

"What do you want in exchange?"

"Didn't you say you could get the guest list for the Regal Haven Hotel today? Give it to me first, then I'll tell you."

Robert stared at Miley, his gaze unwavering

There was a reason why she and Marguerite were best friends. These two women, one cunning and calculative, the other sincere but inscrutable. They were the perfect match, complementing each other. Robert had no choice but to pull out his phone and immediately send the list to Miley's email. "I received it this morning. I'm sending it to you now. I hope your answer won't disappoint me."

Ding! The email notification rang out, and a satisfied smile spread across Miley's face.

She glanced towards the trash can again, catching Ablett's eye as he watched her Miley quickly looked away. "I can't tell you right now. I'll let you know after the funeral." She tried to walk away, but Robert pulled her back.

His handsome face was serious, his hot breath hit her face, carrying an unidentifiable fragrance. "Miley, you were my first woman, so you can't play tricks on me Miley was shocked. That was Robert's first time? That didn't seem right!

Miley felt like she had gotten a great deal. Her gaze towards Robert grew more affectionate. "Would I dare to trick you? I'll tell you as soon as the funeral is over
