Chapter 439 Why Would She Dream Something Like That?
Today, Marion had arranged to meet Cassie since Cassie wanted to join in on the fun. She claimed it had been ages since she had a good time and wanted to tag along while Marion practiced.
After stopping the car, Marion sent Cassie a quick message.
She was not planning on staying long. There was only a week left until the 17th, and she needed to practice hard.
Cassie quickly joined her, hopping into the passenger seat and shooting Marion a curious look. Seriously, why keep this from Lucas?”
“Keeping it from him is good, not bad!” Marion shrugged. “Besides, I don’t mean to keep it from him. I’m just not sure how to bring it up.”
Besides, just a few days ago, Lucas had gifted her a jet ski. If she told him now that she was JJ, it would be awkward…
Cassie nodded. “Yeah, it’s awkward. But once the competition’s over, you can come clean about everything. Lucas will be there to see the race anyway, so it’ll all come out then.”
Marion did not respond and focused on driving instead.
Truth be told, she was not entirely sure how Lucas would react to her showing up as “17“. Would he be mad? If he would, she would have to smooth things over.
Regaining her focus, Marion drove earnestly.
The training grounds were a bit of a trek, and it took over an hour to get there. By the time they arrived, it was already past 9 a.m.
The weather was perfect. After some warm–up exercises and testing the water temperature, donned her life jacket and took a cautious lap around the course before practicing turns.
Marion
Cassie was familiar with the routine, having accompanied Marion often before, so Marion was not
worried about her.
At noon, Marion emerged in her gear with a squint. “It’s scorching. Do you want to head back?”
Cassie shook her head, eyeing Marion’s lips. “What happened to your lips? They look purple.”
Marion, exhausted from a morning of jet skiing, had not even noticed. “They’re purple?”
Before she could process it, Cassie’s hand was on her lips.
The slight sting made Marion wince. “Ow.”
Cassie withdrew her hand and gave Marion a pensive look. “Hmm, things between you and Mr. Craig seem pretty intense!”
Marion instinctively covered Cassie’s mouth. “What are you talking about?”
How Could Cassie say such things in pubber
