Bride behind the mask novel (Marguerite)
Chapter 499

Chapter 499

Teresa's voice was quivering with rage as she stepped forward, her little fists clenched tight, and started pounding on Yuna's body.

As she struck, tears streamed down her face. "You're so mean! How could you do this to Hayes? You don't deserve to be his mom!"

Her small fists kept hammering away at Yuna, all her might focused on getting justice for Hayes today.

Yuna was livid! She had never liked Teresa, and now all her pent-up anger erupted. She reached out and shoved Teresa in the chest.

The little girl, overwhelmed, staggered backward and fell to the ground with a thud.

Teresa cried out, "You wicked woman! You've hurt Hayes, and now you're picking on me! If Hayes knew how you've been using him, he'd be heartbroken!"

"Shut up!" Yuna's voice was hysterical, her eyes wild and bulging.

Teresa was momentarily stunned.

Yuna grabbed Teresa by the collar, her voice venomous as she hissed, "Listen to me! I'm not using him! Hayes knows about the blood draw! He volunteered to give blood for Manley! He can't bear to see Manley suffer, so he offered to do it himself! I'm warning you, this is family business. If you meddle again, do you believe I won't end you?"

Teresa was too scared to speak, and Zoe, who was nearby, was equally terrified by Yuna's malice.

She stepped forward, her voice low and cautionary, "What are you saying? Aren't you afraid she'll tell Frederick?" Yuna turned away, her grip loosening involuntarily.

Seizing the moment, Teresa pushed Yuna off and retreated to a corner of the room, shaking in fear.

"Kids who see things they shouldn't, need to be silenced." Yuna sneered, then glanced at Zoe and motioned with her eyes, "Do you think I'm going to let her go today?"

She didn't say it out loud, but Zoe understood the implication. She glanced at Teresa and pulled Yuna aside, "You want her gone, fine. But think about it. If both kids disappear, Frederick and Maurice will investigate! With their resources, do you think they won't trace it back to us?"

Yuna, blinded by anger, didn't care about the consequences, "She has to die today!"

Her words had barely faded when Zoe's phone suddenly buzzed. It was a text from the head of Hematology.

Zoe skimmed the message, her eyes revealing something Yuna couldn't decipher, "You handle her gently, don't hurt her if possible! I'll be right back!" And then, there were only Yuna and Teresa left in the room with Hayes lying on the bed, his condition unknown.

Teresa was trembling, her sobs stuttering, "You... you're going to let Hayes give blood to Manley..."

Did that mean they were going to drain Hayes of all his blood and transfuse it into Manley? No wonder he looked so pale when he came home yesterday! So, he didn't go for a check-up yesterday. He had already given blood!

"I told you, Hayes giving blood to Manley was his choice! If you value your life, keep your mouth shut! Don't tell anyone, got it?"

Teresa, more frightened than she had ever been, just nodded, tears continuing to stream down her face.

Yuna lost her patience and grabbed Teresa by the throat, "Did you understand me? Keep quiet if you don't want to die!"

Teresa began to scream illogically out of pure fear, "Daddy, Mommy, where are you? Please save me! I'm so scared!"

Yuna's smile grew more twisted, her expression a mix of malice and cruelty, "Keep yelling! Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you today!"

Bang-The door to the room was suddenly kicked open.

Yuna turned instinctively and saw Frederick, his expression stern as a hawk, standing with Marguerite at the screen.

Immediately, Yuna felt like she was scared to death.

Teresa pushed Yuna aside and ran behind Frederick for protection, pointing at Yuna, she exclaimed, “Hayes' Daddy, I'm

so glad you're here! She's terrifying; she wants to take Hayes' blood for Manley!"
