Chapter 746
Meanwhile, back at the banquet hall...
After splitting from Frederick, Sandra had escorted Marguerite back inside.
She introduced Marguerite to several women guests. As the birthday girl, Marguerite was the center of attention,
receiving toast after toast.
With Sandra leading the charge with her toasts, Marguerite found herself sipping more than she intended, and
inevitably, she got tipsy.
When Frederick cdown from the rooftop looking for Marguerite, he found Sandra supporting her as they
walked out of the restroom.
Without hesitation, Frederick pulled Marguerite into his embrace, and she rested her head softly on his shoulder.
Frowning, he asked, "How did she end up drunk again?"
Sandra just shrugged, chuckling, "I didn't expect your girlfriend to be such a lightweight. A couple of drinks and
she's out."
"I'll take her home."
“Alright.”
In her dazed state, Marguerite felt herself enveloped in a warm embrace.
Instinctively, she wrapped her arms around his neck, letting him carry her away from the bustling hall.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThroughout, she was cradled close to him, a feeling that filled her with immense happiness.
She had waited three years for Frederick to return.
As the alcohol began to wear off, the image of her beloved becclearer.
Marguerite had always been modest in her desires. She knew that being from a humble background, she couldn't
afford to be choosy.
All she ever wanted was a happy family.
Now, she had her mother, Frederick had returned to her side, and with Teresa and Hayes, their understanding
and adorable kids, she couldn't ask for more happiness.
Soon, they arrived at their suburban home, and Frederick carried Marguerite to their bedroom, gently laying her
on the bed.
Pretending to be more intoxicated than she was, Marguerite playfully reached into his shirt, feeling his firm
chest.
Frederick tensed, looking down at her with a mix of amusement and desire.
His kiss landed on the tip of her nose before he captured her lips in a tender, murmuring, "Stop it. You're too
drunk for this, | won't take advantage."
Marguerite blinked away her dizziness, pushing against his chest and flipping herself on top of him.
She glared down at him, declaring, "I'm not drunk!"
Frederick was momentarily stunned.
Watching the woman who seemingly knew little of such bold moves, he was intrigued, "Pretending?"
"Not really. | did get drunk, but Sandra helpedthrow up in the restroom. | felt better after that," Marguerite
confessed, leaning in closer, her finger tracing circles on his chest, a mischievous glint in her eye.
"I'm like this now, don't you want me?"
Frederick chuckled, "We just made love last night, and you want more? My lady, you're insatiable."
Marguerite huffed, "Oh, coff it! If we did, I'd feel it the next morning, and | felt nothing!"
"So, what? You wantto make it up to you tonight?"
Marguerite looked at him with eager anticipation, her expression that of a kitten yearning for affection.
"What do you think?"
He laughed openly now.
He was utterly disarmed by her, in everyday matters and now, even in the intimacy of their bedroom.
Marguerite waited, but when Frederick didn't make a move, she rolled off him and started rummaging through a
canvas bag.
Frederick got up and embraced her from behind, asking, "What's wrong?"
Finally finding a small pillbox in the bag, Marguerite turned to him, holding it up triumphantly.
"Found it! Dissonance in this aspect can affect a marriage! Sometimes, we need to take measures!"
Saying this, she tried to pop a pill into Frederick's mouth.
Dodging, he swept her off her feet and tossed her back onto the plush bed, pinning her down.
He kissed her again, his voice low and teasing.
"You want harmony? I'll give you harmony..."
