บททั้งหมดของ Love's Masquerade: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

Nearly a dozen people squeezed themselves into Frederic's room.Although the room was spacious, the atmosphere grew stifling as the Shaws entered.Faye watched as they eyed her as though she was a monster. She smiled but remained silent.On the other hand, Cedric's face fell as he stood before Faye. "We'll know who's the joke here when the truth is revealed."Solomon's eldest son, Zachary Shaw, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. He spoke righteously. "Uncle Cedric, I won't suspect her credibility because you vouch for her. "We've been trying to find a doctor to cure Grandpa. Only you insisted on seeking Dr. Connor. By right, we should believe you and this young doctor here."But," he paused, "we've only heard about such methods on TV, and there's no saying if it really exists."Even if it does, Grandpa has never wronged anyone who uses such sinister stuff. "The Shaw family has always been upright. Why will they target us?"Solomon smirked. "We won't have blamed you if you c

In the car, Faye narrowed her eyes and said, "Solomon has to take care of Mr. Shaw Senior personally. Figure out a way so he does it for these few days."She leaned back into her seat."Hm?" Cedric couldn't catch her meaning.Faye grinned. "Just do as I say."What else could Cedric say? He could only nod. "Okay."But Faye wasn't done with him. "The sixth son of the Shaw family in Jorn City, huh? "How many other identities do you have that I don't know about, Mr. Shaw?"Cedric knew she wouldn't let this slide.He smiled resignedly. "I'll tell you everything when I can, okay?""Whatever," Faye answered nonchalantly.Cedric grew inexplicably nervous. "It's not that I'm unwilling to tell you. Things are complicated. I've barely made sense of it myself."Faye gave him an "okay" gesture. Then, she closed her eyes and rested.She hated family dramas, and she just watched an entire series of them on this trip. It felt more exhausting to her than running for two miles straight. S

Faye had been busy the entire night. She didn't sleep at all.She felt like her soul and body were two different entities as she drove back to the villa.When she finally reached her destination, she simply parked her car and went in. At that moment, she caught a whiff of something delicious.Faye ran toward the kitchen and saw Cedric in an apron, busy preparing food. He was also looking at her. Faye smiled with satisfaction. "What a feast for the eyes …"Faye wasn't looking at the dishes Cedric prepared. In fact, she was looking at Cedric as a playful smile formed on her lips.Cedric didn't expect her to tease him. He looked at her, amused. "Did you just return from the desert? You want to eat everything you see, huh?"Faye noticed how dirty and messy she was. She cleared her throat uneasily. "I can't satisfy my hunger by eating you. I'm only interested in the feast you've prepared."Then, she realized she had let slip what she was thinking.Cedric didn't specify what he mea

Faye returned to the villa. After bathing, she fell into a deep sleep.Two days had passed when she woke up.The Shaw family was in an uproar again. They kept bothering Cedric and asked him to contact Faye.Cedric checked on Faye in her room twice. Seeing how soundly she was sleeping, he couldn't bring himself to disturb her for the sake of those unimportant people.Faye had left them instructions before she slept.They had to give Frederic his medicine consistently these two days. It was to expel the residual toxins in his body because the parasite had inhabited him for too long.Frederic might vomit blood and have other reactions these two days. But those were typical, and they had nothing to worry about.He would have to take a medicinal bath once every two days. She even left them the prescription.Faye covered everything that might happen to Frederic.And she did that so that no one would disturb her for the next two days.In other words, nothing mattered as long as Fred

It was already nighttime when Faye arrived at the Shaw household.The Shaw family had already prepared dinner, but nobody was in the mood to eat. They put in tremendous effort after Cedric mentioned that Dr. Connor would possibly visit them that night. Hence, the group of people awaited Faye's arrival, but she didn't come even after a long time.Of course, they wanted Faye to visit, not because they were worried about Frederic's life. Instead, it was because his life concerned their fate as well. If Frederic died, a huge portion of the Shaw family's inheritance would be given to Cedric. That would be disastrous for them.Therefore, the moment Faye entered the house, the housekeeper, who kept looking around, greeted her enthusiastically. Then, she was brought to the dining table.Though the Shaw family had already panicked for a few days, they stopped feeling anxious after meeting Faye.They all told Faye to sit down and enthusiastically served her food and drinks. They s
