The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 445



Chapter 445 Sorry, Lucas
It was Saturday, September 16th.
Using a short trip with Cassie as an excuse, Marion took the high-speed train to
Lester City early in the morning.
“Keeping this from your husband, what are you going to do when you have to
take off your mask tomorrow?” Cassie teased Marion after she replied to Lucas's
message.
Marion's face twisted in embarrassment. “Well, should I just tell him now?”
Cassie grabbed her phone. “Forget it. Even if you tell him now, it won't change
the fact that you've already deceived him! It's better to wait until tomorrow. If he
gets mad, you can just say you wanted to surprise him!
“Besides, it's hard to say whether he'll even be there tomorrow,”
Hearing Cassie's words, Marion could not help but give her a thumbs-up. “Wow,
you're good at this, Cassie! Why didn't I think of that?”
Cassie proudly raised her eyebrows. “It's nothing special, just basic skills. You,
on the other hand, need to read more romance novels! I learned all these tricks
from reading
novels!”
Marion had been practicing diligently lately, seemingly not getting enough sleep
every day. As they chatted, she dozed off.
Cassie kept talking, not realizing Marion had fallen asleep until she turned her
head and saw her snoozing.
She could not bear to wake Marion, so she waited until they arrived at the station
to
rouse Marion.
As soon as they got off the train, Marion spotted Nina.
“Hey, JJ, over here!”
Marion and Cassie walked over and got into Nina's car, heading towards the
hotel arranged by the organizers.
In the afternoon, Marion had to confirm her participation by signing some
documents and familiarizing herself with the setup.
It was quite a busy day. By the time she got her hands on her phone, it was
already past
six in the evening.
Cassie handed her the phone. “You're in trouble. Mr. Craig has called you several
times.”
Seeing the six missed calls, Marion's heart sank. “Oh no!”
She had fallen asleep on the train and forgotten to check in with Lucas!
Marion quickly returned the call, and Lucas answered almost immediately.
“Awake now?”
Hearing his voice, Marion hesitated for a moment, subconsciously glancing at
Cassic. Catching Cassie's smug smile, Marion suddenly realized what was going
on and responded with guilt in her voice, “Yes, I just woke up. I wasn't feeling too
good on the train and fell asleep as soon as we got to the hotel and forgot to
message you. I'm sorry,
Lucas,”
Aware of her mistake, Marion apologized sincerely, though there was a hint of
coquettishness in her tone that she did not even notice.
Listening to this, Cassie felt a pang of jealousy,
At that moment, Nina and the staff from the organizers finished their discussion,
and Nina was about to approach. Cassie quickly went over to intercept her,
saying, “Don’t go over there. She's on the phone with her husband, not very
friendly to us single folks!”
Since Cassie was not far from Marion, she heard every word, leaving Marion
unable to utter the words to soothe Lucas.
Confused, Lucas, on the other end of the line, asked, “Marion?”
