Chapter 263
Marguerite cried until her voice was hoarse, until no sound could escape her throat
Tears fell like a dam had burst
She sobbed uncontrollably, repeating over and over again, Laverne was my grandma, she was my real grandma.”
Frederick gently pulled Marguente back into his arms, soothingly patting her back as he reaffirmed, “Yes, yes,
Laverne was, the always be your grandma”
Despite his comforting words, surprise and confusion swirled in his eyes.
He remembered this wasn’t the first time that Marquente had claimed Laverne as her grandmother
The last time was in the hospital, after Laverne had a near–death experience. The Ablett couple had provided a
detailed explanation, and when Laverne awoke, she didn’t recognize Marguerite So naturally, he had believed

But now, with Laverne’s passing Marguerite was making the claim again. The fervor in her voice, the determination
in her demeanor, it didn’t seem like the was lying
What could possibly be going wrong?
Could there be secrets between Marguerite and Laverne that he wasn’t privy to?
He had to get to the bottom of it
Back at the mansion, Marguerite was exhausted. He put her to bed gently, then summoned Chuck to his study
“Look into the relationship between Marguerite and Laverne again,” he commanded, his handsome face hardened
by the pain of Laverne’s passing
“Yes, Mr Winston, Chuck quickly responded, preparing to leave the study to start his investigation
But just as he reached the door, Frederick’s sharp voice called him back. “What about the investigation into Yuna’s
sister? Any leads?”
Chuck paused, turned around, and reported, “Mr. Winston, I found out that Zoe had given birth at a small clinic in
Marina Shores Village I’m currently trying to locate her I believe we’ll have results soon.”
Frederick Hit a cigarette, the milky smoke swirling in front of his face, highlighting his sharp features and the
intensity in his eyes
He seened deep in thought, but there was a hint of hesitation in his expression.
Chuck ventured a guess, “Mr Winston, you don’t think Yuna’s sister could be Marguerite, do you?”
Frederick exhaled a ring of smoke, nodding slightly. “Yes”
“But,” Chuck said, “the Lockwood family claimed that the child they lost was a year younger than Yuna. If I’m not
mistaken, Marguente and Yuna are the same age” “Don’t trust everything they say Just do your job”
“Yes, Mr. Winston”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Chuck left, Frederick sank into deep thought again.
He considered the Lockwood family’s long history of deception, their well honed skills in manipulation. He should
have been more skeptical
If the truth was as Marguente claimed, that Laverne was her biological grandmother, that would mean Marguente
and Yuna were sisters, shanng the same
bloodline.
If that was the case, had the Lockwood family been lying to him all along?
What else had they lied about?
Could it be that the person who saved his life fifteen years ago was Marguerite, not Yuna?
The more Frederick thought, the more frustrated he became Without any leads, he needed evidence to support his
suspicions
From now on, he would not trust a word from the Lockwood family
Evidence
That’s all he would rely on
