The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 187 | Can't Help But Stare This was already the third time Marion had drifted off.

Cassie made a light clucking sound, sitting directly next to Marion and lifting her hand to hook her shoulder. “What's got you so lost in thought? | called you three times, and you didn’t respond.”

Marion was suddenly enveloped in Cassie’s embrace, and her thoughts snapped back immediately. She looked at Cassic, feeling somewhat guilty. “I was just thinking about something.”

Cassie raised an eyebrow. “What were you thinking about that had you so entranced?”

What was she thinking about? Of course, it was about the embarrassing incident from last night! Marion had no idea what possessed her to, after a moment of silence following Lucas’s comment, reach out and touch his abdominal muscles.

The scene was awkward at the time, and even now, just recalling it made Marion cringe with embarrassment.

How could she possibly tell Cassie about such a thing?

“| was thinking about the upcoming performance.”

“Is that so?” Cassie looked at her with a smirk, clearly not buying it. “Why would thinking about a performance make you blush?” “Well...”

Did Cassie have to scrutinize her so closely?

Feeling awkward from the start, Marion found it difficult to hold her ground. “Let me organize my thoughts.”

Cassie, observing Marion’s reddened ear tips, let go of her. “It’s okay, take your time to gather your thoughts and explain it to me properly.”

Marion squirmed, “What do you mean?” Cassie smiled cheekily, “I think you know.”

Marion spent five minutes not organizing her words but rather building herself up psychologically. After her mental preparation, she finally spoke, “Cassie, what do you think of me as a person?”

Cassie earnestly examined her and exclaimed, “Ah! Where did this goddess come from? Not only is she beautiful but has a voice like a nightingale! Don’t look at me like that, Mar! My sexual orientation can be swayed!”

Cassie’s extravagant praise left Marion overwhelmed. “Hold on, hold on! | wasn’t asking about that. What | meant was, what do you think of my character?”

“Friendly and adorable, independent and generous, humble and courteous, tactful in every aspect...” Chapter 187 1 Can’t Help But Stare 2/2

Marion felt that if Cassie continued with such eloquent praises, her head would become too big for her body. She pursed her lips and directly asked, “Do you think I’m perverted?”

Cassie was visibly surprised. “Why would you ask such a question?” She did not understand. Was everyone not slightly perverted?

Marion covered her face with her hand. “I don’t know why, but every time | see Lucas, | feel like he’s incredibly hot. | can’t help but take a few more glances, and even feel like-

The word ‘touch’ sounded inappropriate, and Marion hesitated to say it.

Cassie directly filled in the blank for her, “Even feel like touching him, right?”

Marion released her index and middle fingers, revealing a mischievous glint in her eyes. She looked at Cassie and blinked, “So am | being perverted?”

“Why would it be considered perverted? Everyone loves beautiful things! Lucas is a top-notch man among men. If you go out and ask, which woman wouldn’t want to have a bit of fun with him in bed?”

Marion had no words for that.

Although, ‘everyone loves beautiful things,’ was that the right way to think about it?

Cassie thought Marion was worried about something more serious. “You're so silly, Mar! How can this be called perverted? Have you ever had such thoughts about Jameson before?”

Marion thought for a moment, shaking her head, “No.”

“Right? Someone like Jameson, only some ordinary women would lose control of themselves. Look at you, all these years, how many times have you kissed him?”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Marion felt awkward to admit it. “I haven’t kissed him to be precise.

She was sure that a kiss on the cheek did not count!
