Chapter 189 I Want to Go Home
1/2
“Ooh, a perfect match with both talent and beauty! Their backgrounds are equally impressive too!”
“Just when it’s raining, he comes to pick her up at a moment’s notice. I’m so jealous!”
Amidst the envious gazes and comments around her, Ruby walked under Jameson’s umbrella.
When she linked arms with Jameson, she exchanged a glance with Jade.
Jade glanced in Marion’s direction and asked, “Mr. Royce, Miss Marion is also here. Would you mind giving her a ride as well?”
Jameson’s expression subtly changed. He turned around and quickly spotted Marion in the crowd.
“Marion.”
He restrained himself and called out to her.
Marion, prompted by his call, almost responded.
She regretted stopping Cassie from confronting Jade.
Before Jameson could speak, Ruby, feigning generosity, asked, “Miss Marion, would you like a ride too?”
“No thanks. Someone is coming to pick me up,” Marion replied coldly.
Just as Marion was about to retort, her phone rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, she felt a sudden competitive urge. She answered the call, “Hello, honey?”
The affectionate term she used unexpectedly warmed Lucas. Leisurely undoing a button, he inquired, “Where are you?”
Marion, caught off guard, had planned to involve Lucas in her act. However, he went straight to the point, leaving her momentarily flustered. Stammering, she replied, “Infinity Mall.”
“All right, I got it.”
After saying that, Lucas hung up the phone. He did not explicitly say he was coming to pick her up, he had just acknowledged her location. But that was enough for Marion’s act.
Marion put
down her phone, smiled at Jameson and Ruby, and said, “My husband will be here shortly. You don’t need to trouble yourselves.”
Upon hearing the term ‘husband’, Jameson’s face turned slightly pale. He looked at Marion and felt that he had a lot of things to say to her.
Since laying eyes on her, Jameson had not taken his gaze off her.
