Chapter 278

Zoe froze on the spot, taking a moment to process what she had just heard.

The call was from Chuck? And he was planning to rent out the entire restaurant to confess his feelings to someone?

But Zoo remembered what she had heard from Hammond; Chuck was a bachelor who had little interest in women.

How could it be possible for him to make such a grond gesture?

Did that mean the person who was doing it would be…

The mere thought made Zoe feel deliriously happy. As soon as the cashier hung up the phone, she quickly paid her

bill and rushed back to Yuna.

“Yunal Great news! Mr. Winston is going to confess his feelings for you in four days! I overheard Chuck making a call

to the cashier. Mr. Winston has booked the entire restaurant for you, and they’ll be setting up the place in the next

couple of days!”

Yuna’s eyes widened in surprise, “Really?”

“Of course! I heard it with my own ears, how could it be false? I knew it was a good thing when Laverne passed

away! It has accelerated your progress with Mr Winston!”

Zoe and Yuna lightly embraced each other in shared excitement. But what Zoe didn’t see was the manic happiness

and arrogance in Yuna’s eyes, and the hair she had anxiously pulled from her scalp clutched tightly in her fist

For the next three days, Marguente was kept busy at the funeral home, with Frederick accompanying her every

step of the way.

After putting Marguente to bed late at night, Frederick would then go to the Bluebell Bistro to personally set up the

place with Chuck, often working till the early hours of the morning

Today was the last day.

Once Marguerite’s grandmother was laid to rest tomorrow, Frederick would bring her to the venue in the evening

and candidly express his feelings for her Surrounded by roses and tulips, Frederick was growing increasingly

nervous. He had never confessed his feelings to anyone before, and all of this was completely

new to him

He was afraid that Marguerite wouldn’t like it, and also worried that she would think the setup was too cheesy. All of

this made his heart flutter nervously.

At that moment, Chuck was adjusting the lights. With a press of a button, the entire restaurant was adorned with

clusters of starlight, creating a high–class and dazzling atmosphere.

Even Chuck was surprised to see this romantic side of Mr. Winston

“Mr. Winston, don’t worry. I’ve looked through many stage designs and wedding ceremonies, both domestic and

international, and none of them are as beautiful as this. I know Marguerite will love it.”

Frederick didn’t respond to Chuck’s words, and Chuck asked, “Mr. Winston, have you thought about what you’re

going to say to Marguente tomorrow?”

Frederick finally looked up

What was he going to say to her?

He hadn’t thought about that. Between the funeral home and planning this grand gesture, he hadn’t had time to

think about it

Frederick’s expression was slightly guilty, as if he felt he hadn’t done enough for Marguerite.

Chuck caught on to this and said, “It’s normal for you not to know, after all, you’ve never been in love! But I’ve read

romance s! I know exactly how to confess

to a woman!

You should say something like, Marguerite, I love you. My love for you is as constant as the transition from night to

dawn, from dusk to the four seasons. It’s everlasting”

Fredenck’s expression became strange, and he scratched his nose awkwardly. “That sounds a bit cheesy. She

doesn’t seem like the kind of woman who likes to hear those kinds of words.”

“Mr. Winston, it’s your sincerity that counts. Marguerite will love it.”

Chuck was certain of this Overjoyed, he suddenly asked, “But Mr. Winston, have you thought about how to deal with

the baby she’s carrying? Don’t tell me you’re not bothered.”

Seeing Fredenck’s face slowly harden, Chuck quickly cut himself off.

7’m sorry, Mr. Winston I shouldn’t have dampened your mood.”

To his surprise, Frederick’s mood was unusually good, “I don’t mind. After today I will thoroughly investigate who

hurt Marguerite. He must give her an explanation” Hearing Frederick’s words, Chuck breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that Mr, Winston loved Marguerite more than he had let on. He had accepted everything about her, the

good and the bad, and taken it all in his stride. Chuck admired Mr. Winston’s love for Marguerite and hoped that the

two of them could face the future together

As they finished their final checks and prepared to leave the restaurant, Jocelyn was standing by the door, looking

at them with a stein expression

Frederick hadn’t expected Jocelyn to find this place,

He knew his mother had always dicapproved of his relationship with Marguerite, so he hadn’t mentioned a word

about his plans of proposing to her

As Jocelyn walked into the restaurant, flicked on the lights and looked around, she didn’t seem surprised it was as if

she had anticipated every move Frederick had made.

But Frederick didn’t give Jocelyn the chance to speak He blurted out, “Mom, I know you were trying to convince

Marguerite to break up with me. But now you see my decision. I know you might not be happy, but I hope you’ll

support me.”

Jocelyn tumed round to face him Her face was stern, radiating displeasure. “So, knowing It would upset me, you still

went ahead anyway? Couldn’t you have discussed such a major decision with me?”

He had expected his mother’s reaction. Even if she chose not to support him, he’d still go ahead with his plan. But

her lack of support was a blow to him. After all, she was his only family.

If you had talked to me about it, I could have given you a woman’s perspective on what you were doing right or

what you were doing wrong. Look at this place, filled with flowers and crystal decorations Marguerite might find it

extravagant.”

Frederick blinked in surprise. How quickly Jocelyn had changed her tone

Hadn’t she been upset just moments ago?

Jocelyn looked at him with a knowing, motherly gaze “If you’re going all out for tonight, I wonder what you’ll do for

the wedding if you botch it, Marguerite might be disappointed”

Frederick was still struggling to believe it “Mom, does this mean you support me?”

Jocelyn laughed warmly. “I didn’t support you before, but the more I’ve gotten to know Marguerite, the more I like

her.”

Frederick’s chest heaved with excitement as he wrapped Jocelyn in a hug

He was a grown man, but at that moment, he was as happy as a child, “Mom, thank you”

Jocelyn playfully ruffled Frederick’s hair. “But Frederick, have you even hinted at your plan to Marguerite? If she

says no, what will you do?”

Frederick released Jocelyn, his face falling again. “Yeah, what if she doesn’t agree…”

His reaction surprised Jocelyn.

Her parenting approach had always been to encourage Frederick. Even when he made mistakes as a child, she

never shouted or hit him. Instead, she encouraged him when he did well and guided him when he faltered.

Jocelyn often told Frederick that he was a gift to the world, chosen by God.

So, even when they faced hardships, Frederick would always remind himself, “To whom much is given, much is

tested.”

I was safe to say that Jocelyn’s parenting had played a significant role in shaping the man Frederick had become.

lo, she was taken aback to see her son, who was usually so resilient, falter over a joke.

Jon’t worry, you are rich and handsome, who wouldn’t fall for you?”

Marguerite isn’t like that. But right now, I wish she were superficial. At least then I’d know where I stand.”

acelyn smiled gently. Remembering Marguerite’s behavior in recent times, she couldn’t be more certain of the girl’s

feelings for Fredenck

he two youngsters had always been running towards each other, just not knowing it

scelyn leaned against Frederick’s shoulder, her arm draped around his back, patting him reassuringly. “Don’t worry,

Marguerite will say yes”
