Maurice looked deep into Marguerite’s eyes, his gaze charp and profound, sending chills down her spine
“Marguente, I returned home much earlier than you could ve ever imagined My purpose was clear to bring down Frederick, I needed someone to distract him. Coincidentally, you appeared I saw you taking Laverne to the hospital, your relentless determination to protect your kin was exactly what I needed
So, I called you, proposed my plan, and you willingly walked into the lion’s den. And you didn’t disappoint me within just two months in the Winston family, you stirred up so much trouble”
Fredenck once said that Maunce’s tactics were beyond anyone’s wildest imaginations.
Thus, when faced with her queries, Marguerite expected him to come up with some excuse or lie to brush them off But to her surprise, Maurice was unsettlingly candid, revealing everything without any reservation
Marguerite stared back at him in disbelief, “So, every move I made within the Winston family was under your control?”
“Yes” Maunce replied
Marquente closed her eyes in despair. She never imagined that every blunder she made at the manor, every disagreement she had with Frederick, could have been used as a weapon by Maurice against Frederick. She felt an overwhelming quilt towards Frederick
Marguerite tried to compose herself, and when she opened her eyes, they were bloodshot.
“In that case, you should be well aware that I did nothing to betray Frederick during those two months at the manor, nor did I leak any information about the company”
Maurice scoffed at her naivety. “Marguente, even if you just sat by his side and did nothing, I would still know everything I need to.”
“What do you mean?”
“Your and Laverne’s phones… Ive installed surveillance software on them. I can hear and see everything”
Marguente stiffened, a surge of anger welled up within her. So every word she said, every action she look at the manor was under Maunce’s control?
No wonder he wanted her to marry Frederick, no wonder he wanted her to get Frederick to acknowledge her as his wife within three months. Because only by getting close to Frederick could Maurice extract the secrets he wanted through the surveillance software
Suddenly, Marguente remembered the divorce agreement she signed last month and returned to the company where Robert revealed Frederick’s loss of sense of smcli
Not long after, Fragrance Finesse snatched LuxeScents International’s order and exposed Frederick’s secret to everyone.
All of this was because of her!
Marquente felt a mix of desperation and anger She wished she could kill Maurice right now
“So.. you wanted to bring down Frederick through me within three months?” Marguente leaned against the wall for support. It took all her strength to ask that question
Maurice instinctively reached out to help her, only to be harshly brushed off
Seeing her strong reaction, Maurice didn’t insist. He let her slump to the ground, paused for a moment, and responded, “Yes. But something disrupted my initial plan and pace I was supposed to reveal the truth to you after your divorce from Frederick”
Marguente looked up, her face drained of energy But Maurice’s next words hit her like a sledgehammer, I never expected you to be pregnant, and the child you are carrying, is mine.”
