Chapter 368 I Pursued Him
The door swung open, revealing Lucas’s cousin, Danica Johanson. At just nineteen years old, she was a third–year student at Mystara University. Learning that Lucas was bringing Marion over for dinner that night, she had specially taken a day off to be there.
Danica was not the least bit shy of Lucas, and it was evident that their relationship was close.
“Marion, you look much prettier in person than in my mom’s photos. I don’t even want to mention those photos!” Danica, a lively and talkative broadcasting major, complimented Marion.
Marion’s face turned red at the compliment.
“Come now, Danica,” Lucas interrupted Danica with a glance at Marion’s reddened ears. “She’s very blunt.”
Danica playfully stuck her tongue out at Lucas and bent down to fetch a pair of slippers for Marion.
“I can handle it myself, Danica,” Marion quickly reached out to take the slippers.
“Your voice is so sweet! My heart flutters when you say my name,” Danica teased.
Marion awkwardly accepted the compliment, changed into the house slippers, and walked into the
house with Lucas.
Aunt Mindy and Uncle Gerald Johanson were in the kitchen as Danica brought them tea. “Have some tea, Marion.”
“Thank you.” Marion picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea.
Soon, a boy about Danica’s age came downstairs. “Lucas, you’re here!”

Seeing Lucas, Gale’s eyes visibly lit up. Danica slapped him on the back of his head. “Didn’t you see Marion?”
Gale looked embarrassed as he addressed Marion. “Hello, Marion. I’m Gale, Danica’s brother.”
“Oh gosh, Gale!” Danica smacked him again, and he immediately. howled, “Danica, are: you even a girl? You’re so aggressive! Look at how gentle Marion is!”
Marion did not know what to say to that.
‘Don’t mind me,‘ she thought to herself.
After some playful banter between the siblings, Mindy came over from the dining room. “What’s all this noise? Don’t scare Marion!”
Mindy wore an apron and held a green onion in her hand. Marion smiled and greeted her, “Hello, Aunt Mindy.”
“Make yourselves at home. Your uncle and I just finished the last dish. Please wait a moment,” Mindy said as she swung the green onion at Gale. “Quiet down, Gale!”

Gale ducked in time to avoid the green onion.
The two siblings stopped their antics, Gale handed the TV remote to Marion, saying, “Here, you can watch what you want.”
