Chapter 285
Maurice gazed at her, his deep–set eyes seemingly brimming with unsaid secrets
Marquente was taken aback, her lace a canvas of confusion, thinking that Steven was merely jesting “Steven, now’s not the time for jokes.”
Though she had doubted before if Steven was part of Maurice’s crew, she refused to believe that Steven was Maurice himself.
After all, Maurice was Frederick’s half brother, both sharing the Powell blood. Hence, there should be some semblance of resemblance between the two.
But Steven, with his effeminate look and tender skin, bore no resemblance to either Frederick or Powell
Ignoring Marguente’s skepticism, his gaze tumed icy, studying her for a few seconds, as if offering her a final moment of reprieve
After a moment of silence, he spoke again. “Not only that, but I am also the mysterious person you’ve been in contact with.”
Marguente was in shock
Had the atmosphere not been so cenic and serious, Marguerite would have laughed out loud
It was slightly plausible that Maurice was the mysterious person, but to say that Steven was Maurice and the mysterious person, Marguerite couldn’t draw an equal
sign amongst the three
Wasn’t this too melodramatic?
Even scriptwriters couldn’t come up with such a plotline, let alone it happening in real life
“Steven, you “Before she could complete her sentence, Maurice interrupted her in a different way
He stretched out his arm towards Marguerite, his well–defined fingers brushed against her ear. With a swift motion, he tugged at the edge of the mask that was as smooth as skin, and mercilessly ripped it off.
Maunce placed his finger on his lips, signaling Marguerite to stay silent. He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a square–shaped voice changer “How about now? Do you believe me now?”
The voice matched, and he even knew her secret of wearing a mask
Marguerite leaned against the wall to steady herself. “Steven, I never doubted you for a moment!”
