The Bride’s Revenge (Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce) novel Chapter 187

Chapter 187 I Can’t Help But Stare

This was already the third time Marion had drifted off.

Cassie made a light clucking sound, sitting directly next to Marion and lifting her hand to hook her shoulder. “What’s got you so lost in thought? I called you three times, and you didn’t respond.”

Marion was suddenly enveloped in Cassie’s embrace, and her thoughts snapped back immediately. She looked at Cassic, feeling somewhat guilty. “I was just thinking about something.”

Cassie raised an eyebrow. “What were you thinking about that had you so entranced?”

What was she thinking about? Of course, it was about the embarrassing incident from last night! Marion had no idea what possessed her to, after a moment of silence following Lucas’s comment, reach out and touch his abdominal muscles.

The scene was awkward at the time, and even now, just recalling it made Marion cringe with embarrassment.

How could she possibly tell Cassie about such a thing?

“I was thinking about the upcoming performance.”

“Is that so?” Cassie looked at her with a smirk, clearly not buying it. “Why would thinking about a performance make you blush?”

“Well…”

Did Cassie have to scrutinize her so closely?

Feeling awkward from the start, Marion found it difficult to hold her ground. “Let me organize my thoughts.”

Cassie, observing Marion’s reddened ear tips, let go of her. “It’s okay, take your time to gather your thoughts and explain it to me properly.”

Marion squirmed, “What do you mean?”

Cassie smiled cheekily, “I think you know.”

Marion spent five minutes not organizing her words but rather building herself up psychologically. After her mental preparation, she finally spoke, “Cassie, what do you think of me as a person?”

Cassie earnestly examined her and exclaimed, “Ah! Where did this goddess come from? Not only is she beautiful but has a voice like a nightingale! Don’t look at me like that, Mar! My sexual orientation can be swayed!”
