Chapter 171 Stay Focused, Marion!
“I understand.” Lucas looked deep into her eyes, “Wait a moment, I’ll have someone bring it over.”
As soon as Lucas finished speaking, Marion’s face turned red. She nervously nodded, “Oh, thank you.”
She was sure that there was no one more embarrassed than her that evening.
Marion closed the door quietly. Every event that happened that night felt like a dream, with nothing going according to her expectations.
When Marion reopened the bathroom door ten minutes later. The dress provided by the Hilton family
was a black mini dress with the hem just above the knees.
Time was limited, so Marion only slightly blew-dried her hair. Although her makeup had not
completely worn off, it had faded considerably.
Lucas had already stood up from the sofa. “Let’s go back.”
“Huh? Just leave like this?”
Was that not rude?
“Yeah.”
Lucas did not need to ponder his decision. He led her out of the room and took the elevator to the ground floor.
Liam was waiting at the hotel entrance with the car ready. Seeing the two coming out of the lobby, Liam opened the back door.
Marion bent down and got into the car quickly. Soon, Lucas sat down beside her.
The car started moving, and thinking about the events of the past half-hour, Marion could not help but look at Lucas beside her. “Can I ask you a question?”
He raised an eyebrow as he nodded.
“Did Alice seem a bit odd to you?” Marion said, pointing to her own head.
Who would have done what Alice did?
Lucas glanced at her, “Next time, just ignore her.”
“Okay.”
