Chapter 321 Time to Ease the Bunny Out at Home
Lucas carried Marion all the way to the car. Marion found herself in the passenger seat, and as he released his grip, he did not immediately leave. Instead, he leaned down, “Where does it hurt?”
His black gaze focused on her, making Marion feel uneasy. “My stomach,” she said quietly.
“Left side or right side?” He asked, and his large hand pressed against her left abdomen.
She had just finished eating!
Her stomach was still full!
Marion instinctively pulled his hand away, “It doesn’t hurt now.”
“It doesn’t?” He leaned down, and the fragrance of cedarwood almost occupied all her breath.
Marion averted her gaze and suddenly noticed a faint red spot on his neckline.
A very subtle red dot, almost invisible if one was not paying attention.
She instinctively raised her hand and reached over, “What’s this?”
Lucas lowered his head, looking at the spot her finger pointed to, and frowned, “If I say I don’t know, would you believe me?”
“Do you think I would believe that?”
The collar was stained with lipstick, and he claimed not to know! Who would believe such a thing?
Lucas looked at her for a moment, “Is your stomach really not hurting?”
“Are
you changing the subject?”
Marion blinked. She was suddenly feeling disappointed. It seemed like every time she fell for someone, it never ended well.
She lowered her gaze, suddenly finding her inner turmoil uninteresting, “It doesn’t hurt. No need to go to the hospital. I lied to you just now. I didn’t have a stomachache.”
As she spoke, she bit her lip, “If you want to go and send Miss Amber home, you can still catch her. I’ll
take a taxi-
Marion had just unfastened her seatbelt, ready to get out when her lips suddenly felt warm.
She stared at Lucas in surprise as he lightly kissed her. It was a gentle touch as if to soothe her.
“Don’t say those things. I don’t like hearing them.”
Marion was left dumbfounded by his unexpected move, “Then, what do you like to hear?”
“Anything related to you.

He glanced at her, took out his phone, made a call, and then closed the car door, heading to the driver’s seat.
As soon as Lucas got into the car, Marlon noticed that the call had connected. He put the phone on speaker and placed it aside, “It’s me, Lucas.”
“Lucas? What’s wrong? Did something happen to Miss Marion?”
“She’s fine, but I’d like you to explain how your lipstick got on my collar.”
“Lipstick? What lipstick? Is there lipstick on your collar? I didn’t see anything.”
Lucas chuckled suddenly as he listened. “Amber, when I answered the call, what did you do to my
collar?”
Amber hesitated for a moment, “I remember now. I accidentally brushed against it. I’m sorry.”
