The Bride’s Revenge (Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce) novel Chapter 132

Chapter 132 How Did You Get Hurt?

When Lucas said those words, he was facing sideways, and as soon as he spoke, a mysterious warmth crept over Marion’s face.

In the dim light, she gradually turned red, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

She closed her eyes and silently repeated to herself, ‘Stay calm! Stay calm!’

Marion pinched herself. “Thank you,” she said genuinely.

Marion knew that Lucas’s presence that day was merely to support her. Their fake marital relationship had to be maintained for public appearances, especially after the day’s incident.

While grateful for his help, Marion was also aware that it was just Lucas trying to assist her.

Realizing her thoughts were wandering, Marion felt even more self-conscious.

She avoided looking at Lucas and pretended to be engrossed in the performance on stage.

“This dance is really beautiful.”

“It’s alright,” Lucas replied.

Seeing that Marion did not engage in further conversation, Lucas withdrew his arm and glanced at the stage. He had little interest in such ‘artistic performances’ and would not have been there if it

were not for Marion.

The charity performance was scheduled for 108 minutes, and only half an hour had passed.

Lucas’s enthusiasm waned, and his expression became more indifferent. The man beside Marion fell silent, and the faint scent of wood occasionally wafted between them, making Marion feel heady.

However, her reverie was short-lived.
