Chapter 64 Can You Stop Serving Me Food?
In a typical dinner setting, Lucas would speak sparingly, but with a single gesture, he could draw attention to himself, even when he sat in silence. That night, he seemed to have nothing to do but meticulously serve Marion food.
Lucas, the man who rarely uttered a word, was then playing the role of a considerate host, personally picking and placing dishes on Marion’s plate. It left everyone, particularly those from the Radiant Group brand department, astounded.
While Marion and Lucas were legally married, Marion’s recent notoriety as a bride left at the altar, regardless of who was right or wrong, did not make her the most reputable figure. Yet, here was Lucas, personally serving her food–a clear shift in dynamics.
The onlookers from Radiant Group could not help but feel apprehensive. The once pitiful figure now received such a courteous gesture from Lucas, which altered their perspectives of her, and transformed Marion into an almost sacred
presence.
Despite continuous conversations at the table, the atmosphere remained light, so much so that the signing of the endorsement contract seemed imminent after the meal.
Aware that she was merely an accessory that evening, playing a role alongside Lucas, Marion remained quiet and obedient throughout the dinner. However, Lucas continued to serve her, refilling her plate each time it emptied.
Unable to endure any longer, Marion finally tilted her head toward Lucas and looked at him with pleading eyes.
“Mr. Craig, may I discuss something with you?”
“Yes?”
“Could you please stop serving me? I think I’ve had enough.” Her eyes were moist, likely from feeling overwhelmed with food.
Lucas paused. “Had enough?”
“A bit too much.”
Marion began to wonder if Lucas had redirected his anger toward her, but he seemed genuinely confused, completely unaware that she was already full. Well, it was her fault for not speaking up earlier.
She was not a fan of wasting food. It was her habit to finish everything in her

bowl without even thinking. Several times, she had “cleaned up” her plate, only for Lucas to replenish it with a single swirl of his fork, completely undoing her efforts.
Lucas laid down his utensils and observed her. “Aren’t you full?”
“There’s still a lot left.”
It would be a waste to not finish what was on her plate.
Lucas took her place from her. “Stop eating then.”
Soon after, Lucas had a bottle of apple vinegar brought in, which left Marion red- faced. Now, everyone at the table knew she was full. She was sure that she
appeared gluttonous.
Even Kirk, who had been playing with his phone, suddenly looked up and chuckled. “Full, aren’t you?”
If there were not so many people around, Marion would have buried her face in her plate. How embarrassing!
