Chapter 396 She Thought the Same
Marion had been pondering for days, trying to figure out how Lucas knew about her wish.
She even tried probing Lucas a few times, but each time, he managed to make her feel guilty. After failing several times, Marion did not dare to ask him the question again.
Today, Marion was going to the studio with Miley to shoot endorsement photos and promotional videos. As they left, they hit the morning rush hour traffic, and their car was rear–ended by a red
Maserati.
Miley and their driver got out to handle the situation.
Sitting in the car, Marion received a link from Cassie with the headline, [“The heir of the Ascend Group, Ethan Gunn, officially assumes the role of CEO of the Ascend Group today.“]
Cassie: [The Crown Prince of Ascend Group looks quite handsome, but I heard he’s quite the playboy. When he was abroad, he changed girlfriends more often than his underwear!”
Marion wondered what Cassie was always focused on. Glancing at her phone, she realized seven minutes had passed, and Miley and the driver had not returned yet.
She furrowed her brows, pushed open the car door, and stepped out.”
Just as she got out of the car, Marion heard the owner of the Maserati cursing the driver, “I was driving just fine. Why did you suddenly brake?”
The owner of the Maserati was arrogant, and the driver, who was honest and straightforward, could have argued back a few words. However, as soon as he spoke, the other party started cursing at him.
Marion walked over directly. “Since we can’t resolve this, let’s call the police.”
A
She said and glanced at Miley, who stepped aside and called the police.
The owner of the Maserati looked at Marion. “Who are you?”
Marion had no intention of talking to someone who could not be reasoned with. She took out her phone and called for a ride.
Their two cars had been blocking the road for about ten minutes, and it was the peak of rush hour. The drivers behind them were getting impatient, honking their horns incessantly.
Marion quickly asked the driver to move the car to the side, but the owner of the Maserati came over to stop them. “What are you trying to do, escape?”
Marion pushed the woman’s hand away. “The police will be here soon. It’s rush hour, and the cars are stuck in the middle of the road, causing traffic congestion.”
The cars behind the Maserati kept honking incessantly. The woman glanced at Marion, then back at the cars behind her, “What’s all the noise about?! It’s as if everyone’s got somewhere to be!”
Her remark immediately drew condemnation from the surrounding drivers.
“This woman is being completely unreasonable! The moment she steps out of the car, she accuses us of suddenly slamming on the brakes! Goodness, there’s a red light ahead. Are we supposed to just run the red light?”
After Miley finished reporting to the police, she ran over to Marion to complain.
Marion bit her lip. “Don’t bother reasoning with her. Some people are just impossible.”
