Chapter 254 Why Do I Feel So Smug? 

When Marion snapped back to reality, she found herself holding flowers in her left hand, a gift box in her right hand, leaning against the door of her room. 

To hei, she looked a bit silly. 

She blinked, hurriedly placing the large bouquet of roses aside and putting the gift box on the dressing table. Finally, she had both hands free to rub her face. 

There was no way that Lucas just kissed her, right?! 

Lucas kissed her on Valentine’s Day! 

Did that mean he might have feelings for her? 

Thinking of the brief but enchanting kiss just moments ago, Marion could not contain the surging emotions in her heart. 

Her long–ignored phone screen lit up one after another. She stared at it for a while before restraining her drifting thoughts and picking up the phone to check her DMs. 

Cassie: [Didn’t you say your husband was on a business trip?] 

Cassie: [Don’t tell me he rushed back just for Valentine’s Day!] 

Cassie: [Why aren’t you replying?] 

Cassie: [I get it! I won’t bother you next time. Please ignore me!] 

Apart from Cassie, Alice also messaged Marion, but the content was drastically different from Cassie’s. 

Alice: [Babe, did Lucas do this for you?] 

Alice: [I don’t mean anything else, but isn’t it a bit perfunctory?] 

Seeing her message, Marion decided to reply to her first. [He was originally on a business trip and rushed back just for this.] 

Why did Marion feel so smug? 

Alice: [Okay, then that barely considers him qualified!] 

Although Marion knew Alice’s liking for her was purely platonic, seeing the emojis she sent still made Marion blush. 

Below Alice’s message was one from Richard. He did not say much, just a simple, Happy Valentine’s Day.] 

Seeing her father’s message, Marlon quickly replied. 

As for her friend’s circle, there was so much happening that Marion did not know how to describe it. 

Marion casually scrolled through, planning to put down her phone and take a shower. Unexpectedly, Cassie sent another message. [Are you and Mr. Craig for real now?] 

Marion: [You’re overthinking it. He came back to celebrate Valentine’s Day with me so I could post photos on Instagram.] 

Cassie was genuinely confused. [What does that mean?] 

Marion: It’s literally what it means.] 

Thinking about it, Marion suddenly became much more awake. Lucas was doing all this just to maintain their image as a loving couple in front of others. In the end, their relationship had been defined from the beginning. 

Whose fault was it to imagine anything different? She could only blame herself. 

Cassie: [Seriously? If he wanted you to post, he could have just had someone deliver the gifts to your house for you to take pictures. Why bother coming all the way back himself?] 

Marion: [I thought the same, too, but he reminded me to post. If he hadn’t said, Not posting on social media?” I’d probably still be dreaming right now.]  Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Cassie: [Well, it does seem a bit purposeful.] 

Marion lowered her eyebrows, and the smile on her face faded. She did not want to discuss it anymore. 

Cassie sent another message. [Is there a possibility that Lucas just genuinely wants to show off his love?] 

Marion: [Do you think that’s possible?] 

Cassie: [I don’t think it’s very likely. Lucas doesn’t seem like that kind of person.] 

Meanwhile, in the Lumina Four group. 

Lucas sent the photos Marion and he just took. 

Martin: [Have you been working overtime too much? Your eyesight is failing; you sent it to the wrong place.] 

Preston: [PDA much?] 

Tobias: [I shouldn’t have opened the group message.] 

Lucas: [I thought I’d let you guys feel the festive atmosphere.] 

Martin: [The group admin needs to kick this dog @Lucas out.] 

Preston: [I second that.] 

Tobias: [But the group admin is him…] 

Martin: […] 

Preston: […] 

Lucas smirked, exited the chat, opened his phone settings, and set the just–taken photos as his screensaver. 

Hmm, they looked really good.
