NovelOnlineChapter 794
Margot blinked, her wide eyes darting from left to right, a guilty expression flashing across her face.
She quickly switched on her self-defense mode, bursting into uncontrollable laughter, leaving Manley and Hayes
dumbfounded.
"What's gotten into Margot now? She's off on one of her tangents again!"
Had they somehow offended her without realizing?
But soon enough, Margot's laughter died down, her stomach aching from the fits of giggles. She turned to Hayes
and Manley with an innocent look and asked, "Did your daddy get burned too?"
Hayes crossed his arms, pondering, his round eyes seemingly able to peer into one's soul.
He decided to tease Margot a bit and confidently declared, "Your daddy... he's just wearing a mask!"
"A mask?" Margot shook her head, her pigtails swaying. "What kind of mask? Like a superhero mask?"
Imagining herself as a superhero, Margot struck a tic pose, pretending she had the power to see through
anything, baring her teeth and tically blinking.
Hayes and Manley exchanged looks, falling into a silent agreement.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey truly didn't know how to communicate with Margot on a normal level.
Sigh!
Hayes had hoped to tease her, but his antics seemed to have no effect on Margot's quirky behavior.
Manley gave Hayes a side glance, muttering, "I told you, you were wrong yesterday, but you wouldn't listen..."
Hayes was frustrated.
Why wouldn't Manley just believe what he said?
He was sure he'd seen Margot's father's face, and it wasn't burned at all!
He stubbornly believed that if Margot's father was his father, then Margot must be Teresa!
Her father's injury was just a facade, like wearing a mask, and so Margot's chubbiness must also be a mask.
But since he couldn't get close to Margot's father right away, he had to use Margot to prove his theory.
Yet, he had failed again.
It seemed he needed to find a way to approach Margot's father directly.
Lost in his thoughts, Hayes didn't notice Margot getting up from the ground, dusting off her knees, and charging
at them with a playful roar.
"You trippedearlier, now it's my turn! Let's take turns!"
Manley, upon seeing this, quickly whispered to Hayes, "I'm sure she's not Teresa! Teresa is way too smart to act
this silly!"
As he was pulling Hayes up, Hayes shrugged him off, letting Margot "accidentally" trip him over.
He fell hard, without any attempt to break his fall, wincing as he hit the ground. Manley shivered, stunned, "Why
didn't you dodge?"
Lying on the ground, Hayes looked up helplessly, "We can't just bully a little girl... it's not right, Manley. Just bear
with it."
No sooner had he spoken, Manley saw Margot reaching out with her mischievous little hands, grinning evilly at
him.
She seemed to bare her fangs, like a little imp.
"Manley, your turn~"
Seeing no escape, Manley quickly lay down, raising his hands in surrender, pleading, "Mercy, mighty warrior! |
surrender!"
Margot's laughter filled the air again, her joy uncontrollable as she doubled over.
But in her curved eyebrows and smiling eyes, there was a glint of triumph and satisfaction.
She was far from the foolish girl they thought her to be.
