The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 213 I'll Keep My Distance from Her in the Future!

Alice made Lucas record it. After making her statement, Alice enthusiastically placed her invitation on the coffee table, saying, “I really have no ill intentions toward you, Mrs. Craig! Truly!”

Whether it was a misconception on Marion’s part or not, she felt that something was off in the way Alice looked at her. Could it be true, as Cassie had said?

Did Alice like her as Cassie suggested? As Marion was lost in thought, Alice had already turned and left.

Marion watched her departing back, wondering if she should express her reluctance to go. However, Alice had already walked out of the entrance.

As she jogged out of the villa, Alice even thoughtfully closed the door before leaving.

Even though it was broad daylight, leaving the gate wide open still felt somewhat unsafe. If a stranger barged in, it would not be good!

Distracted by Alice, Marion lost interest in continuing to massage Lucas. She picked up the invitation from the table and opened it.

The invitation was exquisite, with her name handwritten on it, showing some genuine effort on Alice’s part. After examining it for a while, Marion handed the invitation to Lucas. “Do you think | should go?”

“Do you want to go?” Lucas took it and, upon seeing the name ‘Miss Marion’, felt displeased.

“Alice invites many wealthy heiresses to her birthday every year. It’s okay if you want to go for the spectacle.”

Marion was not thinking about that: “Mr. Craig.”

She propped her face on her hand and looked at Lucas with unparalleled seriousness. “Do you think Alice’s gaze toward me seems a bit off?”

Lucas had not paid much attention to Alice. “I didn’t notice.”

Marion pursed her lips. Despite the awkwardness, she still felt it necessary to tell Lucas. “Last time, during that ‘rescue,’ she jumped into the water herself, forcing me to pull her out... | originally thought she was trying to frame me, but | didn’t expect her to spread the word everywhere that I’m her lifesaver.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Do you think she has ill intentions this time?” Lucas asked.

Marion shook her head, “She recorded those words. She can’t possibly be setting me up just to run naked around the city center, right? Normal people wouldn't be able to stomach that! If Alice were really to streak through the city center, it would make national news! She might even end up in jail for a few days, charged with causing a disturbance. The cost of plotting against me would be too high!”

Lucas looked at her with his narrowed eyes. He pursed his thin lips slightly, “What do you mean?”

“| mean, is there a possibility that the person she likes is me, not you?” Marion blushed, fearing that Lucas might misunderstand her. She hurriedly added, “Just so you know I’m not into that!”

Lucas’s expression noticeably darkened. Marion stared at him, “I was just joking, Mr. Craig!”

After all, she was Lucas’s wife. Saying such things would be hurtful. Lucas composed himself and looked at her, “In the future, keep your distance from her.”

Alice was not normal. Marion nodded, “Okay, I'll definitely stay away from her in the future!” Lucas looked at the invitation in his hand and found it annoying, “So should | throw this away?” “Throw it away, throw it away!” At that moment, it was crucial to prioritize her husband!

No, wait, she meant that the emotional well-being of her marriage partner should also be considered!
