Marina turned to her. "Why?"
Trixie put on a meaningful expression. "He clearly knows you're engaged, yet he's still with you. That means he has no intention of actually building a future with you. So he must be after something else. Marina, you're so rich—he's ninety-nine percent likely just using you for your money!"
Marina stared at Trixie, desperately wanting to laugh but forcing herself not to.
Trixie counted off on her fingers as she analyzed the situation. "Look, this Foster guy looks like a total pretty boy. He's gentle, considerate, and always acts like some wealthy guy with refined taste. He seems absolutely flawless. But honestly, that's just a classic trick they use to reel you in."
"The more perfect he seems, the more fake his persona is. His main goal is to get his hands on your money!"
Marina thought to herself that Carson would never, in his wildest dreams, imagine that someone would one day mistake him for a sugar baby living off a woman's wealth.
But thinking about it carefully, Marina felt Trixie's points actually made a lot of sense. Aside from the part about him wanting her money, everything else was spot on.
"Hmm," Marina murmured, pretending to think it over.
Trixie emphasized solemnly, "Marina, whatever you do, don't fall for it!"
When the two returned to the living room, Carson looked over at Marina. Thinking about what Trixie had just said, Marina pressed her lips together to suppress a smile.
Once Marina sat down, Carson asked, "What are you smiling about?"
Marina studied him closely, her gaze soft, and whispered, "I just suddenly realized that Mr. Foster has a lot of excellent qualities!"
Carson was entirely clueless about her sudden confession. He couldn't help but chuckle. "What qualities? Tell me in detail."
Marina just smiled, turned her head away, and refused to say another word.
