That was indeed a tricky request

You know I can’t take off the mask right now Miley. If the Lockwoods find out, ill be in a pretty tight spot”

Marguerite responded

Undeterred. Miley pleaded. “But five told everyone how beautiful you are, Margie. If you show up

looking all plain, fd be so embarrassed. Marguente please! How about I find a secluded restaurant?

There’s a new mall in Sunrise District. It’s way out of the way! We can go there, right? There’s no way

we’ll run into any of the “Lockwoods”

Miley’s relentless cham offensive left Marguerite feeling helpless.

It was bue, the Sunnse District was quite remote, over an hour’s drive away.

Briefly removing her mask shouldn’t cause any trouble.

Marguente thought, finally relenting to Miley’s request.

After hanging up. Marguente was suddenly overwhelmed by drowsiness

Ever since she became pregnant, not only had her appetite grown but she also developed a particular

fondness for sleep, always feeling like she hadn’t had enough

She slept till sunset, waking up groggy and disoriented, staring at the spectacular sunset skies,

momentanly losing track of time.

Sadie came to call her for dinner. As she descended the stairs, Marguerite noticed that everyone was

present but Frederick

But it made sense His disdain for her only seemed to grow, he probably didn’t want to see her anytime

soon.

To Marguente’s surprise, however, Frederick’s absence wasn’t temporary

Ever since she retumed to the mansion, she hadn’t seen him at home

Not even once

Marguerite suddenly felt a hollow sensation in her chest Every time she thought of Frederick, her

memories always took her back to their last kiss

If this were a soap opera, Frederick would be the heartbreaker He left her with just a kiss without any

explanation, yet he managed to stir her feelings so effortlessly.

Of course, Marguerite knew that kiss was meant as a punishment for her and held no special meaning

for Fredenck.

But there were so many ways to punish someone, yet he chose the one that was most likely to be

misunderstood

How frustrating!

Days passed uneventfully. The day before she was to meet Miley, Marguente received a phone call

It was the owner of the photo studio

*Hello, is this Ms Lockwood? I’m the owner of Majestic Memories. I’ve developed all your old photos

with your grandmother. Remember you took a picture with your boyfriend here the other day?”

The photo was taken on her birthday, as Yuna, with Frederick. How could Marguerite forget?

“Yes, I remember Can I come pick up the photo?”

“You can’t get it today, but the latest you’ll be able to is the day after tomorrow. I noticed on the photos

with your grandmother you had written Marguente at X years old, do you want something written on the

one with your boyfriend?”

Marguente thought for a moment, “No, don’t write anything on that photo”

“Alright! I’ll mail you the photos, including the one with your boyfriend once it’s ready Could you leave

me an address?”

Marguerite bit her lip, remembering that she lived in the Sapphire Valley Estates, surrounded by

Frederick’s people.

If the package was sent to the mansion and mistakenly opened by someone else, it would give her

away.

“No need, I’ll have some free time soon and I can pick it up myself. Just call me when it’s ready.”

After quickly ending the conversation, Marguente hung up.

The next day.

Today was the day Marguerite and Miley were to meet their online friend

After breakfast, she gave her grandmother a leg massage and then made an excuse to leave the

mansion.

Miley parked the car at the bus stop outside the Sapphire Valley Estates. As soon as Marguente got in,

Miley immediately reached for her mask

“Take it off, take it off! I’ve been praising you to the high heavens, you can’t let them see you like this!”

Marguerite grabbed Miley’s restless hand, “Drive first! We’re still in Frederick’s territory. I can’t take it off

yet”

Miley wasn’t in a rush, she hummed in satisfaction, then started the engine and happily drove towards

Sunrise District.

The joumey was long, and the roads became more secluded.

It was only when Miley parked the car in the underground parking lot of Sunrise Plaza that Marguerite

felt safe enough to remove her mask.

The elevator to the mall was right in front of the car.

Two elevators were facing each other, both opening their doors at the same time.

Marguerite and Miley entered one while, at the exact moment the doors wem closing, Robert entered

the one across from them.
