The following morning at the Winston Group’s headquarters

Reporters had been taking out the company building ao Marquerite, not daring to take the bus and still in possession of Robert’s convertble, decided to take his car

She deliberately drove to the underground parking lot, making overal sounds to throw off any reporters.

Before she could get more than a few steps away from the car, she was stopped by a man who looked like a butler Marguerite looked up and Instantly recognized the face.

it was the butler from the Winston Mansion!

He was the one who had taken her and Frederick to the hospital that day

“Good to see you again, Ms. Lockwood. My name is Hammond, but you can call me whatever you like,” he greeted her cordially

Marguerite frowned, “And why should I care about your name?”

“Well, you might want to remember it. After all, we’ll be seeing a lot of each other”

Hammond finished with a smile, but the pressure in his eyes was unmistakable. He took a step back, bowed slightly, and opened the back door of the sleek Mercedes-Benz behind him. “Ms Lockwood, the master would like to see you

Ever since those two statements had been released last night, Marguerite knew that this was coming.

Either Yuna or Powell, no matter which one, wouldn’t make things easy for her.

Marguerite was prepared. Without batting an eye, she got into the back seat of the car and left with Hammond.

The car drove into the Winston estate in no time, and Marguerite was led into the mansion by Hammond.

Past the entrance, Powell was sitting on a grand armchair in the middle of the living room, still gripping that familiar cane.

To her surprise, Lisette and Jocelyn were also present. Lisette, as the first wife, was sitting leisurely on the sofa next to Powell, admiring her freshly manicured nails.

Jocelyn, the second wife, was standing alongside the servants, a stark contrast to her usual status.

The atmosphere was tense and serious, making Marguerite feel as if she’d stepped back in time to the empire era.
