Chapter 339 Amber’s Audacity
It was Amber again.
Recalling the events of last night, Marion unconsciously edged closer to Lucas.
Lucas noticed her movement and glanced down at her, releasing her hand held in his. Marion felt her hand freed, and a sense of relief washed over her.
However, before she could dwell on her sadness, she felt a tightening around her waist as Lucas gently pulled her closer to him.
Observing Lucas’s actions, Amber tightened her grip on the golf club, diverted her gaze, and smiled. ” I saw you guys from afar and thought I was seeing things.”
Amber’s reappearance made Martin, usually not the sharpest, sense her ill intentions.
He raised an eyebrow at her. “It is quite a coincidence. It’s such a large course, yet we manage to bump into each other.”
Martin’s words carried a hint of sarcasm, which was evident to Marion and, naturally, to Amber as
well.
Despite noticing, Amber did not care. “Does Miss Cartier play golf too?”
Marion was suddenly prompted to respond, “I can play a little.”
“I’m not great at golf either, but Lucas is excellent,” Amber continued.
Instead of engaging, Marion tugged at Lucas’s sleeve. “How about Martin’s skills?”
Before Lucas could reply, Martin volunteered, “I may not be as good as Lucas, but I’m decent.”
“What about Preston?”
Lucas glanced at Preston, not giving Martin a second thought. “Better than Martin.”
Marion furrowed her brow slightly. “In that case, we’re definitely going to lose to them.”
Martin chuckled. “Not necessarily. What if you’re on fire today?”
“I’m not feeling too great today either,” Preston chimed in.
Marion bit her lip. “How about we make a big bet?”
A gust of wind tousled Marion’s hair, prompting Lucas to brush it back. “What kind of bet?”
“The losers have to say ‘I love you‘ to a stranger of the same sex in this course.”
Martin, who was always one for dark humor, grinned. “Sounds way more fun than chugging a liter of soda!”
Preston nodded in agreement. “Indeed. Who came up with the idea of drinking a liter of cola?”

Martin, the one who suggested the liter of cola, was left speechless, feeling like he had shot himself in
the foot.
Marion looked at Lucas, waiting for his approval.
He glanced down at her and said, “Alright, let’s go with your suggestion, Mrs. Craig.”
As he looked at her dotingly, his eyes twinkled with amusement.
