Chapter 246
Marguerite rubbed her nead, blinking several times before the world carne back into focus.
It was then she realized the man holding her was a pe other than Fredericki
A shiver ran down Marguerite’s spine. Why was Frederick hugging her, of all people? She dreaded the thought that
this scene might only infuriate Yuna further.
She tried to squirm out of his arms, but Frederick pulled her back, “Let’s get you some first aid.”
Upon hearing this, Yuna burst into tears, “Freddie! Marguerite is trying to kill me! She wants me dead!”
Frederick’s grip on Marguerite tightened slightly, “She’s hurt.”
Yuna stomped her foot in frustration, “I’m hurt too! I’m hurt worse than she is! Look, just look!”
Yuna rolled up her sleeve, but even after a thorough search, she could find no injuries on her arm.
Marguerite had to admit, Yuna was tough. Despite their recent brawl, not a scratch could be found on her.
But where was her injury?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMarguerite furrowed her brows as a dull pain throbbed at the back of her head, invading her brain. She reached
back to touch it, wincing at the sizable lump.
Frederick guided Marguerite towards the exit, with Yuna’s voice trailing behind theni, “Freddie, where are you
going?*
Frederick turned to one of the nurses, “Take good care of her, I’ll be right back!
“Yes, Mr. Winston!”
Frederick led Marguerite to a treatment room to tend to her injury. With no cuts to treat, they could only apply an
ice pack to soothe the swelling. Marguerite sat in the cold, sterile room, letting Frederick press an ice pack to the
lump.
“What happened?”
Caught off guard, Marguerite didn’t know how to explain. She remained silent, her face somber.
One of the nurses who’d followed them thought Frederick was addressing her. Without a second thought, she
answered, “Mr. Winston, Ms. Yuna and Ms Lockwood got into an argument, and then they started fighting.”
Marguerite shot her a look, her tone sharp, “You saw everything from outside, and you didn’t think to step in?”
The nurse shrunk back, stuttering, “1… I didn’t dare…”
Marguerite sighed. Yuna was intimidating, and this nurse, who took care of her on a daily basis, would know that
better than anyone. It was understandable that she was too afraid to intervene.
“What did you say to her?”
Marguerite
stiffened slightly, a hint of guilt creeping into her voice, “Nothing much.”
“Marguerite, Frederick’s tone was a warning.
Marguerite sighed deeply, forced to admit, “I told her I’m your wife.”
“Anything else?”
“Nothing else. But I repeated it three times.”
Marguerite could feel Frederick’s body go tense behind her, but she couldn’t see his face to gauge his reaction.
is that how you truly feel?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarguerite was confused, “What do you mean?”
“Do you truly consider yourself my wife?”
Marguente felt a mix of emotions, but she stuck to her lie, “Of course not. I just wanted to piss her off”
“Marguerite, you “Frederick’s voice trailed off, his tone a mix of frustration and disappointment After a pause, he
regained his composure. So, the hit you first?
“Who else? I’m the one covered in bruises, she’s perfectly fine”
Upon hearing this, Frederick handed the ice pack to Marguerite and promptly headed for the exit. “Stay here, I’m
going to have a word with her ”
The nurse at the door looked toin. As Frederick was about to leave, she finally mustered the courage to speak up.
Mr Winston, maybe it’s best if you don’t confront Ms. Yuna She just found out she’s pregnant Her emotions are
trung high, it’s to be expected. If you reprimand her she might get even more upset. And then our jobs will become
a bit more difficult”
Marquente’s eyes widened at the news her mind buzzng louder than when Yuna had hit her with the thermos.
What did she just hear?
The nurse said Yuna was pregnant ?
