The Bride’s Revenge (Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce) novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352 Thank You for Being There for Me 

Just as he spoke, Richard heard another voice call him ‘Dad“. 

Lucas had parked and then followed behind Marion. Richard’s voice was quite audible, and Lucas had 

heard what he said. 

Marion glanced at her father and then back at Lucas. It was somewhat awkward, 

Richard cleared his throat, “Don’t mind me, Lucas, I didn’t mean anything but that. I was just concerned about you two!” 

“I don’t mind, Dad. We have some free time this week, so we thought we’d visit you, 

Richard was touched, “Ah it’s so rare for young folks to have a weekend off, you should go enjoy yourselves! You don’t need to worry about an old man like me!” 

Marion linked her arms with Richard’s. “Dad, you’re not any random old man, you’re an interesting 

one!” 

She spotted the fishing gear in Richard’s hands and then asked, “Dad, did we interrupt your fishing?” 

Richard looked at his fishing rod and chuckled, “You little rascal! Now that you and Lucas are here, what fish do I need to catch?” He placed the fishing gear aside. “Come on, let’s go inside and talk!” 

Mable the Cartier housekeeper and Howard the butler were delighted at Marion and Lucas’s visit. Mable had served them tea without any prompting from Richard. 

“Miss, Sir,” Mable said by way of greeting. 

Richard took a seat on the sofa and Marion sat beside him. “Let me pour you some tea, Dad!” 

“Hmm you’re a grown woman, but you still act like a child!” 

Despite his words, Marion knew that Richard was teasing her. 

“No matter how old I am, I’m still your daughter!” 

“That’s true!” 

Richard observed Marion, relieved to see her in good spirits. Then he turned to Lucas, “Been busy lately?” 

Radiant Group had made some major moves lately, and everyone in the industry was aware of it. As the person overseeing everything from a management position, Lucas naturally had a hectic schedule. 

“It’s manageable.” 

“Take care of yourselves.” 

That was the third time Richard had met his son–in–law, and he was not a talkative person by nature. During such visits, Marion often played the intermediary and made the conversation lively for the

three of them. 

After lunch, Richard made it clear that he did not want to keep Marlon and Lucas at the villa any longer.

“I know you’ve been worried about me, but you’ve seen that I’m in good health, aren’t I? You have your own lives together, go on and enjoy your weekend. Take some time for yourselves.” 

Marion blushed and stole a glance at Lucas. Lucas took Marion’s hands in his. “We hear you, Dad. We’ll come visit again.” 

“Alright, take care of each other!” 

Richard bid farewell to his daughter and son–in–law and hummed a tune as he walked to his fish pond to feed the fish. 

Marion gazed absentmindedly ahead as she let out a sigh. Lucas glanced at her. “Worried about Dad?” 

Marion shifted her gaze to him and nodded. “I couldn’t get anything out of him.” 

After lunch, Lucas had excused himself to take a phone call. He had left Richard and Marion with more than ten minutes together. 

Marion tactfully inquired about Richard’s recent business situation, and he assured her that everything was fine. She then asked about his health, and he produced last week’s medical examination report. 

Apart from the usual issues, there were no new health problems. However, Cassie was not someone to exaggerate. If she had mentioned it, there must have been something worrisome she overheard that day. 

At a red light, Lucas slowly stopped the car. He kept one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding Marion’s.

“Don’t worry. Whatever happens, you always have me.‘ 

Marion turned her head and looked into his eyes. A feeling surged within her. She took advantage of the red light as she leaned in and quickly kissed his cheek, “Thank you for being there for me.” 

‘Having a husband is wonderful!‘ Marion thought to herself.
