“Are you threatening me?” Arthur could never imagine himself being threatened the way Marion just did!
“How am | threatening you?” Marion asked innocently. “Isn't trust the most important thing between husband and wife? If you come to me today, Lucas will know about it. When he finds out, will surely ask what you said to me and of course, | will tell him the truth.”

Marion paused and added, “Or is it that between you and your wife, you always hide things from each other?” That further infuriated Arthur. Even Arthur's assistant, listening nearby, wanted to rebuke Marion.
Just then there was movement in the foyer.
Everyone in the living room instinctively looked towards the entrance, and Lucas, in a black suit, appeared before them. His face was grave.
Marion instinctively went to him. “You came back at just the right time! Your dad says | threatened him!” Arthur was speechless. ‘Young lady, be careful with your words,’ he thought to himself.
Lucas glanced at Marion, saw the faint excitement in her eyes, without a hint of grievance, and finally let go of the tension he had been holding all the way home.
He raised his hand, gently embraced her from behind, and stood in front of her, blocking Arthur's piercing gaze. “What do you want?”
Marion, peeking from behind Lucas, glanced at Arthur. With her hand resting on Lucas’s arm, she gently tiptoed, and whispered in his ear, “It's a good thing you're back otherwise, | might have angered your dad to death.”
“It's okay.”
Lucas comforted her.
In Arthur's eyes, the actions of the two were quite intimate, and his face turned purple. “Do you see me as your father?” “Do you still see me as your son?”
“Ungrateful child!”
When Arthur got angry, he tended to want to smash things. Now, he was infuriated by Lucas and Marion, and his face turned blue. He thought about grabbing something from the coffee table and smashing it.

However, Lucas looked at him without expression. “This is the house my mother left me. The things inside belong to my mother, me, and my wife. You have no right or qualifications to touch them. Also, | believe my mother wouldn’t want you to set foot on her property. Please leave, and in the future, if you have any business, contact me directly. There’s no need to involve Marion.”
Lucas paused for a moment and added, “She listens only to me.” Marion, standing behind Lucas, nodded vigorously, saying, “Yes, | only listen to him!” “How dare you!”
Arthur was so angry that his whole body was trembling. His assistant hurriedly stepped forward to calm him, saying, “Mr. Craig, please calm down. Calm down, Sir!”
The assistant then looked at Lucas and said, “Mr. Craig Jr, Mr. Craig is your father. For the sake of an outsider, to anger him like this, | believe your mother wouldn’t approve.”
“Who do you think you are to speak to me so in my house? If my mother were here, she wouldn't allow you to come here to bully my wife!”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Fine! Fine! Very well! Starting tomorrow, you are no longer the chairman of Radiant Group. | disown you as my son!
“| don’t think the matter is settled on my word alone. | will convene a shareholders‘ meeting tomorrow! Without my support, let’s see how long you can stay in this position! Let’s go, we're leaving!”
After all the fuss, Arthur left with nothing but his anger.
Marion watched Arthur’s departing figure, her gaze falling on his hand leaning on the cane. She felt scared.
She gently pulled Lucas’s clothes, saying, “Have we gone too far? | saw your father’s hands shaking.”
Several emotions flashed through Lucas’s dark eyes. He lowered his head, looking at her, and said, ‘ Don’t worry, he’s in good health.”
Marion looked at Lucas and wanted to say that she was worried about his dad too.
However, after some consideration, she realized she was just a woman playing the part of Lucas’s wife, and uttering such words would be meaningless.
