Chapter 434
Chapter 434 You'll Be the One and Only Mrs. Craig
Lucas, in a rare moment of vulnerability, gazed at the closed wooden door
ahead, and his thin lips. curled slowly into a grin. “You'll be the one and only Mrs.
Craig.”
His deep voice echoed through the phone, tinged with a hint of amusement, and
Marion felt her face flush. Though he did not explicitly say it, the implication was
clear to anyone with sense.
A hint of a smile played on Marion's lips.
“Oh,” she managed to say while trying to hold herself together. However, inside,
she was bursting with joy.
Afraid she might laugh out loud, Marion quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
“Have you eaten?” Lucas inquired.
Marion, caught up in her joy, had forgotten she had not eaten anything since
waking up!
She grimaced. “Not yet.
all
“Are you going to eat soon?” Lucas asked.
Blushing furiously, Marion replied, “Yes.”
Not having eaten yet at that hour only emphasized how late she had slept in.
While Lucas had been up since seven in the morning, she had the luxury of
sleeping until past ten!
Feeling the sting of the comparison, Marion politely suggested ending the call.
When Lucas agreed, she quickly hung up.
As soon as the call ended, Marion's stomach rumbled loudly.
Her hunger startled Ronda, who had come to call her for lunch. However, Ronda
recovered quickly by flashing Marion a smile. “Lunch is ready, madam. Would
you like to eat now?”
Embarrassed, Marion nodded sheepishly. “Yes, please.”
Then, her stomach grumbled again.
Glancing at her stomach, Ronda chuckled. “You're hungry. I'll bring the food out
right away.”
Feeling mortified, Marion patted her stomach and hurried toward the dining room.
She was really, truly hungry!
Even though it was only noon, Ronda was incredibly considerate. She noticed
Marion slept in, so she started preparing lunch at eleven, and lunch was ready
now.
Since Marion skipped breakfast, Ronda made a tuna casserole and Caesar salad
for lunch. Feeling hungrier after finishing the salad, Marion ignored Cassie's
messages and started eating.
Half an hour later, Marion was full and satisfied. She picked up her phone to find
a dozen messages
from Cassie.
Cassie: [I'm going on the 17th, too! Save me a ticket! I have to see the look on
Amber's face when she finds out you're JJ!]
Cassie: [I'm going to capture her expression on camera. Next time she bothers
you, just send her the video!]
Cassie: [What do you think, JJ?}
Cassie: [Where are you?]
Cassie: [?]
Cassie: [If you've been kidnapped, give me a signal]
Cassie: [Hello?]
Cassie: [Is Mr. Craig back yet?]
Cassie: [Okay, I won't embarrass myself anymore!]
Cassie: [Remember to save me a ticket!]
Feeling guilty, Marion replied, [I just had lunch.]
Cassie: [It's only 12:15 p.m.]
Marion quickly changed the subject. [Do you just need one ticket?]
