The Bride s Revenge ( Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce ) Chapter 162
Chapter 162 I Would Choose You Too
Having someone accompany you to the restroom was something one did only in elementary school.
As Marion sat in the car, she could not shake off the overwhelming sense of awkwardness she felt. The lights outside the car window were dazzling as each passing light cast a distinct three- dimensional play of light and shadow on Lucas’s side profile.
Marion sighed. “What a waste that such a face was not gracing the big screens…”
The car was originally silent, but her voice suddenly broke the tranquility inside.
The traffic light ahead turned red, and even the focused driver in front could not help but glance in
the rearview mirror.
Lucas, who had been pretending to doze off, slowly opened his eyes and turned his head to look directly at her.
Marion kept very still.
She wanted to smack herself!
‘But he looks so handsome!’ She protested internally.
Marion felt her cheeks burning. She did not dare look up at Lucas and instead kept her head down as she stared at the diamond on her chest.
“Do you like the necklace?” Lucas asked.
Marion glanced at him and then at the necklace in front of her. She nodded, “I like it.” Who would not
like a necklace worth millions of dollars?
“Alright,” he nonchalantly responded.
“Is the necklace beautiful, or am I beautiful?” he teased.
Marion hesitated in her response, “How can you compare yourself to a necklace Mr. Craig? But if I had to choose, I think I would choose you. After all, your bone structure and facial features are so exceptional.”
‘Such exaggeration!’ Lucas thought.
He looked at her thoughtfully. “I would choose you too.”
“Thank you.”
However, she felt that she could not compare to the grand necklace.
They resumed their silence, the green light ahead lit up, and the car continued forward. Soon, they arrived at the hotel entrance.
The driver pulled up directly at the hotel gate.

As soon as the car stopped, the doorman tactfully approached to open the door. Before getting out of the car, Marion saw the grand red carpet that had been rolled out from the entrance.
It was evident that the attendees, who were already inside, were all dressed in their finest. No wonder Lucas gave her the necklace to wear. It seemed the night’s event was anything but ordinary.
Lucas had already exited the car. Marion collected her thoughts, raised her hand, placed it in his palm, and gracefully stepped out of the car. The warmth of the man’s palm lasted only a moment, but the sensation lingered.
Marion felt her ears burn as she linked arms with Lucas and followed him slowly toward the venue. The event, scheduled for 8 o’clock, saw them arriving after dinner, making them fashionably late.
However, with Lucas’s status, even if he was tardy, no one dared to utter a word.
Dressed in an elegant white suit, exuding an air of nobility, Lucas caused a small stir as soon as they entered. It was Marion and Lucas’s first appearance at such an event after their marriage.
Clad in matching white outfits, they were the
envy of
many affluent young attendees.
What kind of person was Lucas?
On any other day, one would address him as Mr. Craig, and he might not even deign to glance at anyone.
They wondered how such a person would agree to such a childish act of wearing matching outfits with his partner. The couple became the object of envy for everyone.
Suddenly, someone whispered loudly, “Is Marion wearing The Transcendent?”
