Marguerite was shocked.

Had she misheard?

Frederick intended to acknowledge her as his wife in public. And what was even more shocking was that he was

going to falsely claim that the child she was carrying was his own?

Before Marguerite could recover from this shock, Robert stepped forward nodding in agreement.

“That’s a great idea! Let’s play up the devoted husband angle. Polar Radiance was your creation, Marguerite, and it

contains musk, doesn’t it? Perfect: We can claim that we discontinued the perfume due to concerns about its

potential effects on the baby. This is perfect!”

Robert was already rallying the PR team to draft a new statement when Marguerite’s voice rang out, firm and clear,

“No! I don’t agree!” This was a wound in her heart that would never heal. She was carrying a child out of wedlock,

and she felt that she had forever brought shame upon Frederick.

Yet now, he was willing to pick up this mantle of disgrace. It was like pouring salt on her wound

Marguerite was well aware that once Frederick decided on something, he would go through with it regardless of the

consequences. But she couldn’t allow that. If this statement was released, the ignorant masses might be fooled, but

what about Jocelyn?

She had already promised Jocelyn that she would divorce Frederick. If they were to publically acknowledge their

relationship now, how would Jocelyn view her?

But Marguerite couldn’t find a reasonable explanation. She steeled herself and retorted,

“You just set up this image of a talent-cherisher, and now you want to present yourself as a loving husband? Mr.

Winston, people are already questioning your image. Aren’t you afraid it will crumble and bring about your

downfall? I want to ask you, are we really that in love? We’re going to be divorced in a month, how are you going to

explain that?”

The PR team was stunned.

A child!

Married!

Divorce?

Frederick, the globally renowned bachelor, was married? And they were expecting a child?

What kind of shocking secret was this!

Robert, too, seemed to realize that their secrets were being popped one after another like bubbles. He quickly

dismissed everyone from the CEO’s office, ready to “threaten them into keeping the secret.

In an instant, only Marguerite and Frederick were left in the large office.

Frederick stared intently at Marguerite, who returned his gaze.

Perhaps she was mistaken, but she thought his eyes looked particularly sorrowful.

“So, you believe my loving-husband image is bound to collapse? What if it doesn’t?”

Doesn’t?

Was he referring to the image of a talent-cherishing man or a loving husband?

Marguerite was baffled. Why did this man always say things that led her to misunderstand?

If he continued like this, she was afraid she’d start falling for him!

Marguerite tried her best to regain her composure, shaking her head and smiling faintly.

“Frederick, I think it’s necessary to remind you that you promised to marry Yuna, and I’ve already signed the

divorce agreement. In a month’s time. we will inevitably be divorced.”

Upon hearing this name, Frederick’s resistance grew stronger.

He wished the entire Lockwood family would disappear from his sight right now!

Vuna.

But the fact was, Yuna had once saved his life, and moreover, she was carrying his child.

Marguerite’s words brought Frederick back to reality.

“The outcome of our divorce won’t be halted simply because I acknowledge you as my wife. It will just be

postponed. It won’t be for too long. Once the dust settles and people forget about this, we can still get a divorce
