Chapter 246 Can This Love Stay Hidden?
Cassie was already there when Marion entered the restaurant, sitting at the reserved table.
It was Valentine’s Day, which also happened to be a weekend. So, nearly ninety percent of the restaurant patrons were couples.
Marion hurried over. “Hey.”
“Here comes the married beauty,” Cassie teased.
Marion was dumbfounded.
Married beauty? What on earth was that?
Compliment her on her looks, sure, but why add “married” to it?
Handing Marion the menu, Cassie asked, “Does your husband know you’re going out with me tonight to see handsome guys?”
‘Just bring up the awkward topic, why don’t you?‘ Marion thought.
Seeing Marion not saying anything, Cassie sensed something was off. “Spill it. Who are you, and why are you occupying my BFF’s body?!”
Marion chuckled. “We’re all humans here; I have my limits!”
“Tsk. Why were you silent just now?”
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Marion directly handed her the phone. “Just take a look for yourself.”
Cassie glanced at the chat records and instantly understood. She returned the phone to Marion with a disgusted look. “Thanks. I think I’ve had my fill of your lovey–dovey.”
Marion grimaced. “Can’t you focus on the main issue?”
Indignant, Cassie said, “Of course! It’s simple. Lucas doesn’t like you going out with me to see handsome guys!”
“Are you sure you’ve gotten the point so quickly?”
“Have I not? Look at your conversation. Your husband is jealous, and all you replied with was, “Okay“. If it were me, I would’ve sent flying kisses in all directions!”
Cassie paused and observed Marion. “Are you sure you really like Lucas?”
Cassie’s question was earnest. Marion blushed under her scrutiny. “I wouldn’t
mistake my feelings for someone.”
“Then why are your chat records so… cold?”
Marion hesitated, “How else should I be acting?”
Cassie, with an iron–willed expression, said, “Have you ever thought about flirting with him?”
“Not really…”
Seeing Cassie about to share her flirting experiences, Marion quickly interjected, “I don’t want him to know I like him yet.”
“Why?”
Cassie could not understand. Could this kind of love be hidden?
