The Bride’s Revenge (Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce) novel Chapter 148

Chapter 148 It Smells So Good

The public lawyer quickly arrived, and the entire process was recorded to preserve legal evidence.

As Marion signed, Lucas stood beside her. A subtle woody fragrance emanated from him, and she could not quite discern the specific scent.

After signing, she turned to ask Lucas, “Mr. Craig, what cologne do you use? It smells really good.”

It was truly pleasant.

Lucas glanced at her, placed one copy of the agreement inside the desk, and handed the other to Marion. “Keep this copy.”

The public lawyer had tactfully left, leaving only Marion and Lucas in the study.

Bowing his head, Lucas took a whiff of the fragrance on himself before addressing Marion’s question, “Is it too strong?”

Marion shook her head, “No, I just think the top and middle notes are quite pleasant, with a subtle woody undertone.”

“Oh, it’s cedarwood,” he replied.

At some point, he had bent down, and the scent of cedarwood became even more distinct.

Marion stiffened, cautious not to move. Lucas was right beside her, and when he leaned, he closed the distance between them. With any small movement from her, she would have easily touched him.

Luckily, Lucas was only reaching down to pick up his phone from the table next to her.

Marion sighed in relief. “It’s really nice.”

“Thank you.”

He casually asked, “Did you check the hot search on Twitter?”

Thinking about his comments, Marion felt shy and her face started heating up. “Yes, I did.”

Lucas looked at his phone and tapped his thumb on the screen. Soon, the page jumped into the trending topics on Twitter.

The hot search #ImEasytoPlease #confidently held the first place in the trending topics.

As Marion watched Lucas click through the trending topics, she reached out without hesitation and held Lucas’s hand. “Mr. Craig?”

Lucas first glanced at the hand holding his, then slowly raised his head, and looked at Marion.
