Chapter 67 Do You Believe Me? 

The private room was now only occupied by Lucas and Marion. She finally breathed a sigh of relief. As she settled into the wheelchair, she noticed the lipstick mark on Lucas’s collar, and could not ignore it any longer. 

“Mr. Craig, could you lower your head a bit?” she asked. 

Lucas glanced at her but did not reply. Instead, he simply leaned down. The sudden proximity brought with it a crisp scent of sandalwood, causing Marion to pinch her flushed earlobe. 

“Your collar is askew,” she said and avoided direct eye contact with Lucas as she reached out. 

Perhaps it was because she was feeling guilty, Marion’s hand trembled slightly. She quickly readjusted the collar, folded it down again, and finally smoothed it 

out. 

She managed to cover the lipstick mark, then withdrew her hand. “There you go, Mr. Craig.” 

After all, lying made Marion feel uneasy. She stole a glance at Lucas. She felt vulnerable. Lucas, however, looked at her calmly. “Thank you.” 

“No need to thank me. It’s just a small favor,” she replied, attempting to downplay her actions. 

He straightened up, and the woody scent dissipated. Marion felt her heartbeat return to normal, relieved that Lucas had not noticed anything. 

Lucas observed her bright eyes. He pursed his lips as he suppressed a smile. ” Let’s go.”  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Okay.” 

Lucas circled behind her, pushed the wheelchair, and exited the private room. 

When they came out of the elevator, Lucas encountered an acquaintance from the business world. 

“Hello, Mr. Craig. Who is this?” 

Lucas lowered his head to glance at Marion in the wheelchair. “Marion, my wife.” 

Typically, when casually introducing a partner, people might just say, ‘My Wife‘. However, Lucas included her name. The acquaintance immediately understood, Mrs. Craig, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

“This is Mr. Tommy Dicaprio,” Lucas said as he introduced the man. 

Marion flashed him a smile, “Hello, Mr. Dicaprio.” 

Mr. Dicaprio tactfully engaged them in a brief conversation before excusing himself to attend to other matters. Lucas pushed Marion out of the hotel entrance, where the driver was waiting. 

“Mr. and Mrs. Craig.” 

Marion stood up, thanked Mr. Dicaptio, and bent down to enter the car. Lucas soon followed. 

Marion could smell a subtle woody fragrance emanating from him. Thinking about Mr. Dicaprio’s expression from earlier, Marion felt a mix of emotions. 

He was a business partner, and Lucas had introduced her so formally. Marion worried about how the two would handle things when they concluded their business discussions. 

Although she had shared their marriage certificate online, not everyone paid attention to such matters unless they were young or fond of gossip. 

Mr. Dicaprio seemed quite surprised to see her. Marion was contemplating the ‘ divorce‘ scenario when suddenly Lucas, who was beside her, asked, “What are you thinking?” 

Her mouth was quicker than her brain, and she blurted out her thoughts. “I’m thinking about what happens after we get divorced.” 

Once the words were out, Marion felt ashamed. She hastily looked at Lucas. “No, Mr. Craig, let me clarify. I accidentally blurted out what was on my mind.” 

“What’s on your mind?” 

“…I didn’t mean that. Do you believe me?” 

Marion wanted to smack herself. She did not want to face the awkward and harsh reality. The man looked at her. His features were unmoving, his expression calm. However, Marion knew that it was the calm before the storm.
