Chapter 262
Frederick, seeing Marguerite in such a state, felt each second passing by was pure agony
He gently wrapped his arms around Marquente, tightly clutching her shoulders, hoping he could offer her a sliver of comfort and strength
“There’s no rush to sign. We’ll come back tomorrow”
Marguente in his arms had long run out of tears, her emotions utterly drained.
She shook her head, her voice hoarse, “Let me go, I can sign. I’ll sign”
Marguerite’s voice was monotone, but her hand trembled uncontrollably.
Her handwnting was shaky but the pressure she applied was forceful enough to make an imprint on the back of the paper, giving Frederick a glimpse into her despair
Laveme’s body had to be kept in the hospital for a day to determine the exact cause of death, so Frederick had no choice but to take Marguerite home first.
Throughout the joumey, Marguente was calm. She didn’t cry, nor did she make a fuss.
Frederick kept silent, knowing that no words could console her wounded heart night now.
Chuck, the co–pilot, was about to turn around to report the situation, but Frederick immediately shook his head at him, signaling him to stay quiet. Instead, Chuck texted Frederick
[Ive informed Ms Yuna about Laveme. They just landed at Meadow Haven and are on their way back now]
[Look into the doctor who prescribed the medication for Laverne]
[Understood“]
Their Rolls–Royce moved through the city streets, caught in the early morning traffic
Street comers were filled with breakfast street vendors, and Marguerite’s gaze suddenly fell on a shop selling fries.
She turned to Frederick, the floodgates of her memories opening wide, and pointed out the window, “Look”
Following her direction, Fredenck asked. “Want some?”
Marguente shook her head, her tone indifferent. “No, it just reminded me of when I was a child. We were so poor, but I really wanted to eat fres. My grandma would get a couple of discarded potatoes from our neighbors and fried them for me.
But those potatoes were rotten, so they tasted bitter and astringent. Yet, my grandma and I found them incredibly delicious, and it made us feel so content” As Marguerite spoke, she felt as though she was travelling back in time.
Her entire being was transported back to her childhood, to that familiar old house in Marina Shores Village.
Marguente’s storytelling was animated and vivid, but Frederick felt a pang in his heart
Laveme’s passing was a fatal blow to Marguerite
