The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 370 As Long As You Like It

Danica snorted, “What’s wrong with hugging Marion? Your possessiveness is a bit over the top. Be careful, Marion might find you annoying!”

Danica was indeed fearless in speaking her mind! Marion stood beside Lucas, listening to her words, and could not help but admire her.

“Right, Marion?”

Suddenly dragged into the war, Marion muttered to herself.

After chatting at the entrance for a while, Marion and Lucas got into the car. Danica stood by the door, waving enthusiastically. It was evident that she liked having Marion over.

As the car slowly pulled away, Gerald and Mindy exchanged a glance and then turned back into the

house.

Danica walked over to Mindy and said, “Mom, how do you think Lucas managed to win over Marion?”

Mindy smiled and gave her a look, “You’re asking me? Why not ask Lucas?”

“I dare not!”

Gale snorted, “What’s there that you dare not? You dare a lot!”

The two siblings started arguing again, but Gerald and Mindy, long accustomed to their squabbles, ignored them and returned to their room.

Once the door to their room closed, Mindy’s smile faded, “Is Marion Richard Cartier’s daughter? Could it be?”

Gerald glanced at her, “If Richard knew something, he would have taken action long ago. He has been silent, so he probably doesn’t know.”

“You’re right. Let’s not get carried away. Lucas hasn’t noticed anything either.”

“Indeed. Let’s see what happens.”

Marion looked at the jade bracelet on her arm. She wanted to take it off and put it away, but without a jewelry box in the car, she had to wear it till she could keep it safely.

She opened the other box Mindy gave her and found a set of ruby jewelry inside.

Marion knew that it was worth millions on the market.

It was so luxurious!

She quickly closed the jewelry box, afraid of damaging its contents.

Marion glanced at Lucas, her lips moved slightly but then decided to talk about it when they got home.

On the other hand, Lucas saw her expression and asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t like it?”

“No, it’s just… It’s very expensive!”

Lucas clicked his tongue, “It’s just an heirloom from my grandmother!”

Marion often felt out of place with Lucas’s family due to not being wealthy enough!

Throughout the journey, Marion held onto the jewelry box tightly, fearing that it might be damaged by any accidental bumps. When they arrived home without any mishaps, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After getting out of the car, she went straight upstairs, carefully took off the bracelet, and put it away safely before going back downstairs to change her shoes.

As she descended, she bumped into Lucas who was carrying a tray of water. “Why are you in such a hurry?”

She chuckled, “I took off the bracelet and stored it away.”

“Why aren’t you wearing it?” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“What if I accidentally damage it?”

Lucas handed her the water, “Isn’t jewelry meant to be worn?”

She took a sip of water, “It’s too precious, and it’s your grandmother’s heirloom. Better to preserve it.

“Well…As long as you like it.”

He did not say anything else about it.

“I’m going downstairs to change my shoes.”

“Okay.”

Lucas stood at the stairs as he watched her descend. When Marion’s figure disappeared around the corner, he withdrew his gaze and continued upstairs.

Marion changed into slippers, poured herself another glass of water, and then went upstairs.

It was getting late, and it was time to take a shower and go to bed.

Just as she entered the master bedroom, she saw Lucas sitting on the sofa, waving at her, “Come over

here.”
