Teresa locked eyes with Frederick, but his emotions were too complex for Teresa to decipher.
Polar Radiance, a brand of cologne, was once a symbol of the bond between him and Marguerite.
Despite losing his sense of smell, he was still able to detect the scent of that particular cologne.
And that was why he decided to keep Marguerite around in the company, even after banishing her from his mansion.
Had it not been for this cologne, he would never have gotten involved with Marguerite to such an extent. But now, Teresa had brought to his attention that polar lights had a special significance to Marguerite. Could the truth be as Robert suggested, that Marguerite was once in love with him?
But Frederick quickly dismissed the idea. If she truly loved him, why would she betray him?!
Frederick reassured himself, before bending down to fix Teresa’s collar, suppressing his turbulent emotions, nonchalantly stating, “Marguerite and I are not as close as you think.” Teresa puffed her cheeks, upset. Daddy was lying! How could people who are not close kiss?! What a hypocrite! Were there any misunderstandings between daddy and mommy? While Teresa was deep in thought, Frederick had already taken her phone, using the white wall as a backdrop to quickly take a few photos of her.
Seeing this, Teresa immediately began to pose, imitating a few boxing positions.
“Send them to her.” Frederick handed the phone back to her.
Upon receiving the phone, Teresa quickly opened her chat with Marguerite and began to choose photos fervently. But a series of messages from her mom made her nervous again.
[Honey? Are you done yet? Why is it taking so long?]
[Honey, are you really practicing taekwondo? Don’t lie to mommy, okay?]
[Honey? Honey?]
[Answer me!]
[Teresa Winston! Are you lying to me again?]
Teresa was mischievous and loved to have fun. It had been a while since she received a

reply, so she had a hunch. Marguerite thought for a moment, then sent another message: [Honey, mommy is giving you one minute. Otherwise, I will have to call your school teacher!]
What?! Call the school teacher?! Teresa’s eyebrows furrowed in an instant. She quickly showed the screen to Frederick, making a pitiful face, pleading,
“Help, Hayes‘ daddy! I’m in trouble!”
Frederick glanced at the screen, then took Teresa’s phone and sent a few photos to Marguerite.
Marguerite, at the other end, was very satisfied with the photos and was finally reassured, [Nice, very cool!]
Frederick stared at her reply. When did this woman become so gullible?
Frederick’s clean fingers danced on the screen, [I am Teresa’s coach, please do not disturb during practice.]
[Teresa, don’t mimic your teacher!]
Frederick frowned, [She is training, her phone has been confiscated.]
Marguerite at the other end was stunned for a moment, then her attitude immediately took a 180– degree turn, [Coach, I’m sorry. I thought you were Teresa. She’s a wild one, and I’m afraid she’s tricking me.]
Teresa blinked her eyes, looking up at Frederick. Huh? That’s weird! What are daddy and mommy talking about? Why is daddy smiling?
[You sure do talk a lot.]
Marguerite was taken aback again. Isn’t that Frederick’s catchphrase? Are all teachers so temperamental now?
Frederick typed the message and handed the phone back to Teresa, smiling, “Your mom seems to know you pretty well.”
Teresa quickly looked at the chat history, pouting, “If mommy knew she was tricked again, she’d definitely spank me!”
The little girl sighed dramatically as her phone vibrated twice. She tentatively took a peek, then gasped in horror!
[Hayes‘ daddy, my mommy wants to add you on Facebook!]
