Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 444

Marguerite was easily persuaded by Jocelyn, and as she left the Winston Mansion, Yuna happened to see her.

Yuna lingered, watching as the number of people in the mansion dwindled.

Jocelyn won't be coming downstairs for a while, and Lisette was nowhere to be found - it was a golden opportunity!

She quickly headed to the kitchen, packing some doughnuts and coffee into a thermos, then went to the children's bedroom to call for Hayes, instructing, "Hayes, daddy didn't eat much for breakfast, and he must be hungry now. If you take this snack to him, he'll be really happy. Would you mind doing that for me?"

The mere thought of making his daddy happy was enough to light up Hayes' eyes. Unaware of the impending danger, he joyfully nodded his little head.

Yuna, thrilled, quickly thrust the thermos into Hayes' arms, urging, "Go on, the driver's outside waiting for you."

Hayes, clutching the thermos, stumbled towards the doorway. He initially wanted to call for Teresa to join him, but she had mentioned earlier that the weather was perfect for a nap.

So Teresa must be resting, right? Better not to disturb her.

With that thought, Hayes resolutely stepped out of the mansion.

From the window, watching the car carrying Hayes disappearing into the distance, Yuna swiftly texted Barnes - [Hayes and the driver are out, make your move.]

A prompt response from Barnes soon followed.

Yuna looked towards the direction where Hayes had left. Now, there was no sign of the car.

Instead, there was heavy snowfall and dense fog.

Her malicious gaze, particularly noticeable amid the gloomy weather.

The blizzard was especially ferocious that day, a harshness Marguerite had never experienced before.

After an interview at Penelope's company, she returned home. The severe weather had disrupted traffic, congesting all the streets.

Marguerite was shocked. Did Manley just call Lisette grandma? And his tone was even more affectionate than when he called Jocelyn!

Children don't know any better, it must have been Yuna's doing!

Seeing Manley frantically dialing Frederick’s number, Yuna was inwardly delighted.

At this hour, Hayes must have already been taken care of by Barnes.

Frederick still hadn't returned home, he must be investigating the matter!

Once this call was made, Powell would surely find out about Hayes’ death, and he would certainly use all his resources to investigate.

By then, Hayes would be long gone, and Barnes would be caught even sooner due to Powell's involvement.

This was exactly what Yuna wanted, so she didn't stop Manley.
