Chapter 350 Can I Get a Goodnight Kiss?
Watching the bathroom door close, Marlon finally mustered the courage to open
Cassie's chat.
Underneath her unread message, which Lucas had seen, Cassie had sent
several more. [Hey? Why aren't you replying to my messages?]
Cassie: [I get it. Sorry for bothering you.]
Marion glanced and sent a meme of a baffled bunny right away,
Cassie responded swiftly, (Aren’t you getting cozy with your hubby? Why are you
messaging me?
Cassie: [Okay, no more jokes. I need to tell you something.]
Seeing Cassie serious, Marion touched her slightly warm cheek and sent her a
question mark.
Cassie: [Last week, at the company dinner, I saw your dad at the restaurant. He
was on the phone, saying something like, “Stop trying to get any money from
him.” I'm worried if something's up with him. Can you go home and check on him
when you have time?]
Marion's excited mood instantly settled down. She had gone back with Lucas half
a month ago to celebrate Richard's birthday and had not noticed any issues.
Marion pursed her lips, replying, [Okay, thanks. I'll go home tomorrow!]
Cassie: [Alright it's late. Get some rest!]
Marion found it strange.
[You're going to bed so early?]
Cassie: [It's called being considerate. I'm single, but you're not!]
Marion knew she should not have asked!
Just as Marion finished chatting with Cassie, Lucas emerged from the bathroom.
His black V-neck pajamas were loose, and Lucas, who had just gotten out of the
shower, looked clean
and fresh.
Marion glanced up and felt her heart skip a beat at the sight of his chest.
She quickly averted her gaze, rolled to the side with the blanket, and made room
for him.
“Done showering?”
Lucas towel—-dried his hair before sitting on the edge of the bed. He casually
glanced at her phone by the side, asking, “What were you talking to Miss
Greaves about?”
Marion intended to go back home tomorrow to check on Richard after Cassie's
message. Since he asked, she simply opened the chat history and handed it
over. “Cass mentioned my dad seemed off. I want to go back tomorrow to see
him.”

“Okay.”
Lucas glanced at her phone for a moment, then handed it back to her. “I'm going
to blow—dry my hair.
“Mm-hmm,” Marion replied, taking the phone. She yawned right after nodding.
She was really tired.
Marion placed the phone on the bedside table and withdrew her hand. That was
when she realized she would be sharing a bed with Lucas tonight, making her a
bit nervous.
The sound of the hairdryer in the bathroom abruptly stopped, and Marion’s
heartbeat seemed to
quicken.
Soon enough, Lucas emerged from the bathroom. His hair, which had been wet
moments ago, now looked effortlessly dry.
Marion could not help but silently appreciate the quality of the hairdryer. Just as
she was lost in thought, the bed shifted slightly.
Lucas got onto the bed.
Marion watched as he pulled up the blanket. The next moment, she and the
blanket were pulled
towards him.
Fresh from the shower, Lucas had a subtle woody scent about him, with the clear
fragrance of his
shower gel, much like hers.
Marion curved her lips and tugged the thin blanket. With her eyes downcast, she
softly asked, we sleep now?”
“I'll turn off the light, then?” Lucas inquired.
“Okay.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the room plunged into darkness.

In the darkness, those dark eyes gazed at her intensely. “Can I have a goodnight
