Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chatper 541

Chapter 541

Miley was caught off guard, her reaction time seemingly caught in a slow-motion trance.

A barrage of inquiries from Robert left her befuddled, leading her to a sweet, blushing misunderstanding, “Isn’t this

a bit too sudden? Are we meeting the parents already?”

Robert gently patted Miley’s head, clarifying with a warm smile, “It’s not just about meeting your folks. What I really

want… is to dig into some childhood stories about little Marguerite.”

Miley then realized what was going on.

Oh! She thought he wanted to meet her parents as her boyfriend.

But then again, it made sense. Robert’s mind was preoccupied with his sister’s welfare, not exactly in the mood for

whispering sweet nothings.

Miley was gracious, yet a tinge of imbalance shadowed her heart.

She recalled all the efforts she’d made to win over the Fitzgeralds, putting her pride aside to chase after Robert to

his company, yet he had shown little in return.

It felt like a brazen disregard for her feelings.

So, with a voice tinged with resentment and an emotion slightly stirred, Miley vented, “I just don’t get it! With the

DNA test at hand, why can’t you just trust the results? There’s no evidence to suggest that your sister is

Marguerite!”

Facing his girlfriend’s fiery displeasure, Robert didn’t flare up. Instead, he took her hand with patience and began to

explain, “Three years ago, Frederick scoured the earth for the girl who had saved his life. He was close to finding

Marguerite, but in the end, Yuna took her place.

If she could impersonate once, what’s stopping her from doing it again with my sister?

Miley, it’s not the DNA test I distrust; it’s the possibility of Yuna’s interference that bothers me. So, I want to

investigate further. Can you understand that?”

Miley, pouting, slipped her hand from Robert’s grasp and turned away, her lips pursed as she gazed into the

distance, silent.

Robert, initially lost in his own emotions, saw Miley’s resistance and was momentarily stunned before rapidly

replaying their conversation in his head.

He quickly realized that in the whirlwind of his sister’s issues, he had indeed neglected Miley.

He stepped closer, wrapping his arms around her shoulders, and pulled her gently into an apologetic embrace,

“Sweetheart, I admit I haven’t been at my best lately, and I hope you can forgive me. My sister is my family, and so

are you. You both mean the world to me. Once I sort out my sister’s affairs, I promise I’ll propose to you, officially.

Alright?”

Nothing promises sweet commitment like talks of marriage, and at his words, Miley’s mood visibly lifted.
