Chapter 163 Stealing the Spotlight
Suddenly, the entire venue turned their collective gaze toward Marion’s chest.
The sizable diamond, under the bright lights, shone so brilliantly that it was hard to look away.
Undoubtedly, at that moment, Marion became the focal point of the crowd.
In the distance, Jameson with a glass of wine in hand, glimpsed Marion as she was escorted by Lucas through the crowd.
He had known Marion for many years and always acknowledged her beauty, but that evening, he realized her exceptional attractiveness far surpassed his previous perception.
He marveled at her waist which was accentuated by her fitted white dress.
Meanwhile, Lucas’s hand was slowly encircling that slender waist.
Jameson’s face turned pale, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
The man standing next to Marion should have been him!
Marion rarely attended such events, as Richard was not fond of them, and she felt indifferent about
them.
In the past two years, she had accompanied Jameson on one or two occasions, but due to the Cartier family’s relatively low status, most people overlooked her.
However, that night was different.
Because of Lucas, she became the center of attention. Whether people envied or resented her, they could not help but cast their eyes toward her.
It was a rather enjoyable feeling. Yes, she was that shallow.
While Marion reveled in the attention, the hand she was holding suddenly loosened. She paused for a
moment and looked at Lucas.
In the next instant, she felt a slight tightening around her waist. The hand that Lucas had withdrawn a moment ago was now embracing her waist.
Her entire body tensed up. The intimate gesture in public made her feel awkward, and her fair earlobes turned red in an instant.
