The Bride s Revenge ( Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce ) Chapter 322
Chapter 322 Something’s Wrong with Lucas!
The ride home remained quiet as Marion pretended to sleep while Lucas chose not to expose her ploy.
Twenty minutes later, the car slowly entered the garage.
Lucas turned off the engine, removed the keys, unfastened his seatbelt, and leisurely took off his coat. Then he exited the car, circled to the passenger side, and unfastened Marion’s seatbelt.
Marion, who had not really slept, felt his approach.
In the next moment, Lucas had lifted her. She cautiously opened her eyes and caught a glimpse of Lucas’s slender jawline.
Was it appropriate to keep pretending to sleep? Should she pretend to wake up when they climbed up the stairs?
While Marion hesitated about what to do, Lucas had already carried her upstairs.
Since they were already on the second floor, she decided to continue feigning sleep.
Her room was not far from the staircase, but after a while, Marion realized something was wrong.
She had a bad feeling about what was coming.
Soon enough, she was placed on a bed. However, the familiar woody scent of the sheets reminded her
that this was not her room.
Lucas left after putting her down, and Marion quickly opened her eyes. She was stunned.
Why did Lucas put her on his bed?
Had she locked her room door?
Wait a minute, he had been carrying her the whole time. He never stopped…
Did he deliberately put her on his bed?
Marion’s heart raced at the thought.
Something was wrong with Lucas!
She hurriedly got off the bed, intending to sneak back into her room. However, just as she got off the bed, Lucas returned.
He looked at her and locked the door right in front of her.
Marion stared at the locked door and involuntarily swallowed. “Mr. Craig, I think I must have fallen asleep just now.”
“Oh, really?”
He glanced at her with a smirk, then approached her.

Marion noticed the coat in his hands. He had gone downstairs to get his coat.
He had given her a chance to reveal herself.
Instinctively, she took a step back. After retreating a couple of steps, the back of her lower leg bumped into the bed, causing her to fall onto it.
Lucas pulled a chair and sat directly in front of Marion. He then casually rolled up his coat and tossed it into the trash nearby.
Just like that, he had thrown away a coat worth over a thousand dollars.
Perhaps sensing her confusion, Lucas clarified, “It’s dirty.”
Marion stared at the coat in the trash bin and asked, “Where is it dirty?”
“The collar,” he replied.
Marion felt there was more to Lucas’s words. “Explain what happened this evening.‘
Marion’s heart skipped a beat, and she trembled involuntarily. “Explain? Explain what?”
Lucas gazed at her, then suddenly leaned down and placed his hands on either side of her, were level with hers. “Explain why you faked a stomachache.”
Marion felt like she was trapped. She wanted to escape, but there was nowhere to run.

“I just… wanted to deceive you.”
“So you only wanted to deceive me?”
Marion blushed under his intense scrutiny. She nodded nervously, “Yes, I had no other intentions. It was just a sudden quirky idea.”
“Really? Can I have a quirky idea too?”
He scoffed and suddenly dragged his chair forward effectively reducing the distance between them.
“How… how quirky?” Marion attempted to move further back on the bed.
She could not move any further.
