Chapter 333 Do You Want To Feel It Again?
An hour later, Marion watched her clothes getting hung in the master bedroom’s closet with a mixture of emotions she could not quite articulate.
‘Aren’t things moving too quickly?‘ she wondered.
While she was lost in thought, Lucas was done with hanging all her clothes and approached her. Suddenly, he leaned in and bit her lip.
Marion winced, quickly covering her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide with disbelief. She exclaimed, “Why did you… bite me?”
Was Lucas behaving like a puppy now? Biting people at whim?
“Well, I called you several times, but you didn’t respond, so I had to resort to this,” he replied, his lips curling into a grin as if savoring the moment.
Marion’s ears burned instantly, her earlobes turning crimson.
“But… you can’t just bite me!” she protested.
“Alright, no biting next time.” He relented and paused before adding, “Just kissing next time.”
Seriously! Was the man oblivious to social norms?
Seeing that her ears had reddened, Lucas decided not to tease her further. “Get some sleep. I’ll go downstairs and make lunch. I’ll wake you in two hours.”
Marion blinked at his words. “How can I leave all the work to you?”
It seemed rude of her to let him cook while she slept.
“Would you cook with me?” he asked.
Flustered, Marion quickly pretended to yawn. “I… I’m really tired. I need to rest. Thank you, Mr. Craig!
With that, she hurried out of the closet, intending to return to the guest room.
Yet, before she could leave, Lucas grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back. “Where are you going, Mrs. Craig?”
Marion quickly improvised. “I’m thirsty. I just wanted to go downstairs for some water.‘
“Tap water?” he inquired.
”
“Yeah, sure,” she replied with relief.
It was only when he released her collar and walked out of the room with a smile that Marion finally realized he was going downstairs to fetch her some water. How embarrassing!
Despite feeling embarrassed, she felt the mischievous excitement bubbling up inside her, and warmth

spread across her chest as if she were in a blissful dream.
She moved with her phone to Lucas’s sprawling two–meter–wide bed, and as she lay down, she could not resist rolling around a bit.
Halfway through, Lucas returned with the water.
Marion froze in place, her messy hair all over her face. His dark eyes sparkled with amusement, but he said nothing as he approached her with the water.
“Here, drink,” he said while offering her the glass.
Marion sat up stiffly and took the glass from him. Her little finger accidentally brushed against the back of his hand, sending a soft tingle through her.
She drank most of the water before setting the glass aside and obediently lying back down, pulling the
blanket over herself.
