The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 423 I've Missed You, Lucas

As she spoke, her hand beneath her grasped the hem of Lucas’s shirt.

The fabric tugged at Lucas lightly, prompting him to look at her fingers on
his attire.

His dark eyes flickered. In an instant, he withdrew his gaze and shifted it to
her round eyes. His Adam's apple rolled slightly as he restrained himself,
“Sure.”

Marion’s face flushed hotly, but the longing in her heart was insatiable.
Tentatively, she reached out and grabbed onto his shirt.

She bit her lips then put her hand over his waist, she reached around to his
back and buried her head

in his chest.

The familiar scent of cedarwood filled her nostrils. Due to their extreme
proximity, the scent was

much clearer than usual. Joy filled her heart as she breathed him in.
Marion nudged him slightly, “I've missed you so much, Lucas.”

Lucas heard her muffled words and his heart beat faster.

Marion, nestled in his arms, rubbed against him completely unaware of any
danger.

Lucas chuckled silently, suppressing the surging desire, and reached his hand
through the back of her neck, pulling her closer into his embrace, “Funny, I've
missed you too.”

Marion gave one final nudge and looked at him, “Il mean it.”

It was not just to appease him; she genuinely meant it. Although she was not
sure why, she just missed him. She wanted to hold him. Well, she even wanted to
kiss him.

Marion realized that she also had romantic desires for Lucas. The thought made
her feel guilty, and she almost looked away.

“I mean it too.*

He did not just simply miss her, he knew.

Lucas was never a passionate person when it came to emotions. Almost
everything that had happened between him and Marion so far was initiated by
him. She had the desire but lacked the courage.

But sometimes, her courage was much greater than he imagined.

Just like now, after a brief separation, their already passionate feelings intensified
even more.

With Marion holding him the way she was and saying she missed him felt like a
silent seduction on her part.

Uncontrolled emotions were tearing at his rationality. Lucas remained motionless
for a moment, as he looked at her with undisguised desire.

In the brief silence, it was ultimately Lucas’s rationality that prevailed. He
lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, “I hope you can just hug
me next time, without asking first.”
With a soft chuckle, he said, “And, I've missed you more than you can
imagine.”
Then he lightly patted her head, “Go to sleep. Otherwise, I'll have to show
you just how much I miss you.”
Naive and inexperienced as she was, she did not miss the meaning in
Lucas’s words.
Yet, the physical contact against her body was even more direct.
