Chapter 594
Marguerite was flabbergasted, unable to comprehend how the tide of blame had suddenly turned to
crash over her head. In her view, Yuna’s accusations were baseless!
Yet, infuriatingly, Yuna’s wild guess had found favor with most of the people present.
Several clueless servants started gossiping anew.
“Holy smokes! Did Ms. Marguerite poison Manley?”
“It has to be her! There’s no other explanation! Manley’s inner circle is small, and Ms. Marguerite had
the motive!”
“I bet Ms. Marguerite didn’t just poison him; she must have hurt him too!”
“And how! Explain to me how a three-year-old kid, even in a delirium, could get such severe injuries
from just bumping into things!”
The chatter penetrated Marguerite’s ears, leaving her feeling both helpless and frustrated.
That’s how rumors spread like wildfire. One person starts the tale, and by the time it’s been passed
around, the story has morphed beyond recognition.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, in their eyes, she had become the wicked witch.
Yuna, quite pleased with the situation, was careful not to show it too openly. She had to maintain the
image of the victim!
So, with teary eyes, she looked at Marguerite, then turned her pitiful gaze to Frederick, and asked with
a quivering voice, “Freddie, can’t you see the truth yet?”
Frederick’s eyes were ice as he locked his gaze on her and countered, “You expect me to trust a web
of lies?”
Yuna was taken aback, her insides churning with discomfort. But she quickly regrouped, her voice
whiny and desperate, “Freddie, you think I lied, fine, I’ll own it. But the crowd sees clearly! Didn’t you
hear their discussion?
They’re saying Marguerite poisoned Manley and even hit him! My heart aches as a mother; how could I
bear this?”
Seeing Frederick unmoved, Yuna hurriedly ran to Hackett, tears streaming down her face, “Dad! You
have to help me! Manley is your dear grandson; can you bear to see him treated like this?”
By then, Hackett had sobered up completely. He took Yuna’s hand and was about to approach
Frederick when Robert stepped in their way, blocking their path.
Hackett, red with anger, bellowed, “Move!”

Robert stood firm and directly challenged Yuna, “You’re so sure Marguerite is to blame, where’s your
proof?”
Yuna was dumbfounded. Her entire scheme was aimed at smearing Marguerite to clear her own name!
Proof? She had no proof!
And then, she heard Frederick’s commanding voice, cold as the Arctic chill, “If today’s events hadn’t
unfolded, I never would have realized the Winston family harbored such a rabble!”
Frederick’s voice wasn’t loud, but it held enough authority to silence everyone.
Chuck, seizing the moment, followed Frederick’s lead, “Everyone who accused Marguerite, present
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyour solid evidence now! If you can’t, you will be in trouble!”
Suddenly, the room fell into a silence as grave as death.
If Yuna had no evidence, how could those blindly following her confabulations have any? Heads hung
low, nobody dared to utter a word, all awaiting Frederick’s judgment.
On the sidelines, Sadie was finally coming to her senses.
She was responsible for the children’s milk, and the discovery of poison in Manley’s cup was on her
watch. She hadn’t anticipated her oversight would cause such trouble for Marguerite.
She hurriedly interjected, “Mr. Winston, I can assure you, this has nothing to do with our young
mistress… oh, I mean Ms. Marguerite. I was present every time the milk was prepared, never leaving it
unattended. During these times, Ms. Marguerite was either working late at the office or in her room,
never near the kitchen. However…”
Sadie paused as a memory surfaced – someone had come close to the kitchen two days
ago.
Pondering, she then cast her gaze upon Yuna and began slowly, “Ms. Yuna visited the dining hall two
days ago.”
