Chapter 338 I’ll Go Easy On You
Marion looked at Martin in disbelief, wondering if he was not afraid of getting punched for saying
that.
Clearly, Martin realized his blunder and awkwardly touched his nose. “Oops, my bad! My bad!”
Lucas cast a cold glance at him.
“Get lost,” he said before pausing for a moment. “Don’t affect my wife’s mood.”
Martin glanced at Marion. “Sorry, my bad, I misspoke!”
He did not dare say anything more and left swiftly with his golf club in hand.
As Martin approached Preston, he could not contain himself. “Don’t you feel like punching Lucas today?”
Preston gave him a sideways glance. “Well, go punch him.”
Martin sighed inwardly. If only he could win in a fight, he would have done it already.
At that moment, Tobias finished his drink and remarked, “It’s probably because he’s in love today.”
Martin was suddenly struck with a realization. “Now that you mention it!”
Recalling Lucas saying “Whatever you say” sent shivers down his spine.
What was up with Lucas? They had been married for over two months. Were they not past the honeymoon phase?
Martin glanced at Lucas and Marion nearby and nudged Preston. “What about his sweetheart? Has he forgotten her already?”
Preston shrugged. “Who knows?”
As for Lucas’s sweetheart, they only knew there was someone. They had no clue who she was or what
she looked like.
Three months ago, Lucas and Marion suddenly got married, and it surprised them all. Martin, being Martin, once asked in their group chat, but Lucas ignored the question, and they all tactfully dropped the topic.
Marion took a bottle of water from Lucas’s hand and instinctively twisted the cap, only to find it already opened. She glanced at him, her eyes sparkling under the sunlight.
“You opened it?” she asked.
Lucas stared at her with a hint of a smile in his eyes. “Isn’t it something a husband should do?”
The word “husband” made Marion’s ears tingle and cheeks flush. She dared not meet his gaze, so she turned to Martin’s group not far away and muttered, “You’re quite considerate.”
Chapter 11p kare On You

Her voice had barely faded when she heard a deep voice beside her ear. “Mrs. Craig, care to join me for a game of golf?”
He had approached without her noticing, with his chest pressing against her back, and Marion felt a rush of heat throughout her body.
The crisp scent of wood drifted past her nose as she tightened her grip on the golf club. “I’m not very good at this.”
“No worries. I’ll go easy on you.”
Marion gave him a look. “Are you sure about that?”
Lucas lowered his gaze to her and nodded. “You’re right, Mrs. Craig. I’m not.”
As he spoke, he suddenly took her hand. Marion instinctively flinched, causing him to glance at her
askew.
