Chapter 232
Divorce postponed?
Marguerite wouldn’t have it!
If she could, she’d run to the courthouse right now!
How could the man in front of her understand the agony of unrequited love? Seeing him everyday was like living
through years of torment
She viewed Frederick as a heartless executioner. He could have mercifully ended her suffering, yet he chose to
drag it out, grinding down her patience bit by bit.
The constant delay of their divorce left her fearing that her feelings for him would only intensify, making it even
harder to let him go.
“So, you’re set on doing this? Even if I don’t agree, you’ll go public with our relationship at this point?”
Despite Frederick’s seemingly cold and resolute demeanor, she couldn’t see the tightly clenched fist hidden behind
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthis back, his short nails digging painfully into his skin.
And she didn’t know that everything Frederick was doing was to protect her.
Everyone was currently focusing on the Polar Radiance perfume project. The Internet was not so easily fooled. If
they didn’t address the rumora, the public would keep digging
The truth about their relationship, and the scandal of Marguerite being pregnant out of wedlock, which led to the
abrupt cancellation of the Polar Radiance project, would inevitably be revealed.
So, he’d rather take the blame than let Marguerite face public humiliation.
He had to admit that the child Marguerite carried was his.
Misunderstandings often stemmed from a lack of communication. Marguerite was unaware of Frederick’s true
intentions, and she kept her own feelings to herself.
Both of them fell silent, neither one willing to break the quiet.
In her distress, Marguerite silently shed tears. She couldn’t persuade Frederick, but perhaps Jocelyn would
understand!
She discreetly texted Jocelyn, concisely explaining the evening’s events.
It took a while before Jocelyn replied: “If this can salvage the company’s reputation, I support Frederick’s decision.”
Marguerite was stunned.
Jocelyn agreed with Frederick?
How could that be!
Hadn’t she always been advocating for their divorce?
Confused, Marguerite quickly typed out a response, “Jocelyn, what about the family? Frederick’s relationship with
Powell is already strained. Admitting this publicly will only make things worse!!!”
Marguerite used three exclamation marks to emphasize her shock and confusion. Jocelyn’s response was a calming
reassurance.
“If we delay the divorce, Powell has no reason to stay angry. Stop worrying. You two just need to help the company
through this crisis. I’ll handle
the rest.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince even Jocelyn sided with Frederick, Marguerite felt completely lost.
In everyone’s eyes, the company’s reputation was paramount.
Her feelings, in comparison, were insignificant.
Marguerite felt a pang of sadness, but she couldn’t blame anyone.
Who else knew about her feelings for Frederick? She couldn’t expect anyone to cater to her emotions.
Marguerite took a deep breath, accepting the reality that she had to compromise.
She put down her phone and slowly moved in front of Frederick, “For the sake of the company’s reputation, I’m
willing to make this sacrifice. But you better control Yuna. I don’t want her stirring up trouble.”
Frederick looked at her with a complicated expression, “I’ll explain everything to her.”
*You better!”
Marguerite retorted, then decisively turned to leave.
But before she could exit the office, Frederick called out to her, “Marguerite.”
She stopped and turned around, “What now?”
He paused, his deep voice seemingly comforting and reminding her. “The divorce is inevitable. It’s just postponed I
wont let you suffer any loss
