The Bride’s Revenge (Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce) novel Chapter 443

Chapter 443 Mrs. Craig Knows How to Tease 

Realizing this, Marion’s heart warmed. 

She walked straight towards Lucas, reaching out to hug him tightly from behind. 

“Lucas.‘ 

Resting against his broad shoulder, she slowly said, “I missed you today.” 

Lucas clicked his tongue lightly, holding her hand and turning to look at her. “Funny, I was thinking the same.” 

He wrapped one arm around her waist while the other lifted, lightly brushing against the corner of her lips. “Still sore?” 

Marion grimaced. “Not anymore. I wasn’t even sore to begin with!” 

“Hmm.” 

His dark eyes flickered slightly as he lightly responded, yet his hand did not leave her lips. Marion could feel the dry fingerprints on his fingertips brushing against her lips, making them feel dry as well. 

Subconsciously, she licked her lips before pushing his hand away. “I want some water.” 

Lucas gave her a deep look before turning and heading into the room, returning with a glass of water. 

Marion was indeed thirsty. She tilted her head back and drank most of the glass. 

After quenching her thirst, she sipped slowly. 

Leaning against the balcony railing, Lucas watched her. “Want more?” 

Marion shook her head, placing the cup aside and walking up to him. She looked up at the moon in the sky. “The moon tonight is really round.” 

Lucas, beside her, did not respond. He pulled her back into his arms, saying, “If you’re not sore anymore, kissing shouldn’t hurt either, right?” 

Before Marion could react, his slightly cool lips were already on hers. 

With his hand around her waist, he leaned down, his chilly lips gradually occupying hers. 

At first, it was gentle, making one forget about time. 

Marion felt drowsy, her breathing squeezed between their lips, the sensation of 

suffocation slowing down her thoughts. 

Then, Lucas’s originally gentle kiss suddenly became intense. His hand around her waist tightened, as if he wanted to mold his body with hers. 

Marion was startled, humming, “Lucas…” 

Upon hearing her voice, Lucas stopped. 

His deep black eyes stared straight at her, the usual coolness now tinted with desire. 

Marion took a deep breath, her heart pounding with how he looked at her. Unable to bear it, she instinctively raised her hand to cover his eyes, trembling as she said, “Don’t look at me like that.” 

That gaze seemed like it wanted to devour her. 

Lucas wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into his embrace. “Mrs. Craig knows how 

to tease.‘ 

Clearly, she was the one who teased first. Yet, in the end, it was she who told him not to look at her like that.
