Chapter 251
Chapter 251 Is It Really for Me? Before turning around, Lucas glanced at the SUV. With a slight tug of his thin lips, he took Marion’s hand and turned into the villa.
Inside the SUV, Greg turned to look at Kirk in the back seat. “Getting ahead of yourself, weren’t you? Her husband was right here, waiting!”
Through the tinted windows, Kirk watched the couple’s backs, and the playful glint in his eyes slowly faded. It was only when Marion and Lucas disappeared behind the villa’s door that he retracted his gaze and glanced at the rearview mirror. “You like to talk a lot, don’t you?”
Greg thought, ‘You act all high and mighty, thinking you’re something special. Yet, you make me drive you around while you're picking up girls!
Marion's mind was filled with the sensation of being led by the hand. As soon as they entered the villa, Lucas let go of her hand. Her heart relaxed, and she subconsciously looked up at Lucas.
He happened to be looking at her, too, his dark eyes resting on her face. “I thought you said you didn’t go to see handsome guys?”
Marion was puzzled. “We didn’t...”
He stared at her. “Isn’t Kirk handsome?” “Well, you can’t say he’s not handsome.” “So, you went to see handsome guys.”
It was a statement, not a question. Marion met Kirk at the bar, and Kirk was handsome. Did that not mean she went to see handsome guys?
Something seemed off, but she could not pinpoint what it was. After a while, Marion was convinced by Lucas’s flawless logic. “Okay, fine. | went to see handsome guys.”
“So you lied to me?”
How did things escalate to the point where she was accused of deceiving him? How did things escalate to the po This was outrageous!
Marion thought for a moment and explained, “I didn’t lie to you. | didn’t even look at Kirk, nor am | interested in him! But Cassie is a big fan of Kirk, so what could | do?”
Lucas looked at her and then suddenly smiled. “Come.”
He beckoned with his hand and went upstairs. He walked slowly, obviously waiting for Marion.
Seeing that she was not following him, Lucas stopped in front of the stairs. “Are you coming?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Marion hurriedly caught up, and the two of them, one in front of the other, walked towards the music room. What were they going in there for?
Was he in a bad mood and wanted her to play a song to cheer him up?
Just as Marion was wondering, the door to the music room pushed open. A large bunch of roses beside the white piano caught her eye, vibrant and dripping with allure!
‘What's going on here?‘ She thought as she looked at Lucas with surprise and confusion. “Mr. Craig, what is this?”
“Your Valentine’s Day gift,” he replied, walking to the piano and picking up a delicately wrapped gift box, handing it to her. Marion looked at the exquisitely packaged gift box handed to her, pleasantly surprised. “This... isn’t it a bit inappropriate?” Though she said that, her hand reached out. After all, who would not want a Valentine's gift?
“Take a look. See if you like it.”
Marion glanced at him, feeling a bit embarrassed. “Is it really for me?”
She was just a fake Mrs. Craig.
“Is there anyone else here?”
Embarrassed, she pulled the ribbon and opened the outer packaging of the gift box, revealing an exquisite jewelry box inside. As soon as she opened it, Marion was dazzled by the diamonds on the bracelet.
It looked quite expensive.
“Thank you. | really like it.”
Suddenly, she felt that the gift she had prepared was a bit embarrassing.
“Good,” Lucas responded, looking at the large bouquet of red roses beside the piano. “Don’t like roses?”
“No, | love them.”
She said, quickly going over to pick up the roses. It was the first time she received 999 roses. Surprisingly, it was heavy!
The first time she lifted it, she was almost pulled down. So, Marion tried again, exerting more force before finally managing to hold up the roses.
Were there really 999 roses?
As she was about to count, Lucas beside her suddenly asked, “Not going to tell your friends and post on social media?”
