Chapter 392

Marguerite was so stunned by the sudden news that she didn’t even have time to bid Frederick goodbye, instead

rushing out in a blind panic.

Frederick’s eyebrows knitted together in confusion as he instinctively moved to the window, quickly spotting

Marguerite hailing a cab and speeding off away from the construction site. Chuck re-entered the scene at that

moment, “Mr. Winston, Marguerite just left. Should we continue the work upstairs?”

“Continue.”

“Yes, Mr. Winston!”

As Chuck turned to go relay the command, Frederick’s commanding voice echoed once again, “Wait.”

“Mr. Winston, do you need anything else?”

Frederick paused momentarily, then asked in a neutral tone, “What’s going on with her?”

Her? Was Mr. Winston referring to Marguerite?

“I just heard that Maurice sold LuxeScents International. Marguerite probably just found out about it and is rushing

back.”

Frederick’s eyes clouded over with an emotion Chuck couldn’t decipher.

Could it be that there was some rekindled romance between Mr. Winston and Marguerite?

Seizing the opportunity, Chuck decided to push further. He feigned sympathy, “Ah, I didn’t expect Marguerite to

care so much. You were gone for three years, and she stayed in the company the whole time. It hasn’t been easy

for her. Mr. Winston, aren’t you going to help her?”

Chuck meant to support her, but his words only seemed to further agitate Frederick.

“Don’t you have nothing better to do?”

Chuck stuttered under Frederick’s intense glare, “…I just feel bad for Marguerite, because she’s about to lose her

job.”

Frederick scoffed, his lips curling into a cruel grin, “She deserves it!”

Chuck was confused. Was Mr. Winston still holding a grudge against Marguerite? Then what was going on earlier?

Even if Marguerite initiated it, but Mr. Winston didn’t push her away! Now, even the long-time associate Chuck was

thoroughly confused about Frederick’s feelings.

Half an hour later, at LuxeScents International..

As soon as Marguerite got off the cab, she ran towards the CEO’s office. Just as she got off the elevator, she saw

Maurice and a stranger poring over a contract.

The stranger was about to sign his name with a pen he pulled from his pocket..

Marguerite rushed forward to stop him, but it was too late.

The moment she burst into the CEO’s office, the stranger had just signed his name.

Maurice and the stranger both turned to look at the out-of-breath Marguerite, who marched straight up to Maurice

and asked, “Did you sell LuxeScents International without my consent?” Maurice retorted, “LuxeScents International

is a subsidiary of the Winston Group. As the head of the Winston Group, I have every right to deal with it as I see

fit.”

Marguerite was livid, “But our collaboration with Thunderbolt Enterprises isn’t over yet!”

“Mr. Charles will handle the rest.” Maurice remained calm throughout.

Maurice, are you out of your mind?”

Before the two could argue further, the stranger stepped in. He extended his hand to Marguerite and introduced

himself, “Hello Ms. Lockwood, I’m Wade Charles. I’ve heard so much about you, and you’re even more beautiful in

person.

Wade Charles? The name sounded familiar.

Marguerite turned to look at him. Despite his playboy looks, he seemed friendly

Marguerite immediately pleaded, “How much did you pay for it? Can you sell it back to me?”

Wade withdrew his hand awkwardly, glanced at Maurice, then turned back to Marguerite.

“I didn’t buy the company to make money. My father thinks I’m aimless, so I bought a company to please him.”

Marguerite was getting desperate, ‘Out of all the companies, why LuxeScents International?”

“Because LuxeScents International has potential!”

Marguerite was at a loss for words. With the contract signed and no room for negotiation, Marguerite was at rock

bottom. She slumped onto the sofa, tears welling up in her eyes.

Her collaboration with Frederick was abruptly ended, and she couldn’t even save LuxeScents International.

Everything ended so suddenly.

Maurice walked over to Marguerite and suddenly gripped her shoulder, “Marguerite, it’s time you ertded things with

Frederick.”

“Can you stop interfering in my life?

Maurice tightened his grip, causing Marguerite to wince in pain. “In a month, we’ll be getting married.”

“I’ve said it before, I won’t marry you!”

I’m informing you, not asking for your opinion.”

“Even if you dragged me there, I would never go to the city hall with you!”

Seft words didn’t work, so he’s resorting to force? Well, she wouldn’t give in!

Maurice just laughed, “Do we really need to go to City Hall to get married, Marguerite? Oh, you’re too naive. If I had

the power to marry you off to Frederick three years ago, then I certainly have the means to make you my wife!”
