Chapter 126 It’s Not What You Think
Miley was uncertain if Lucas would stand up for Marion, but when she heard him make a call, she
immediately became excited.
“Mr. Craig is standing up for you. Shouldn’t we stay?”
Marion furrowed her brows. “I don’t want him to get involved in this matter.”
When she left the makeup room, she had already planned how to handle the situation and take matters
into her own hands. She had not expected to run into Lucas right outside the door..
Marion had been in the industry for many years, and despite her low profile, her strength and
connections proved useful when needed. The organizer of the charity performance, Zoe, had
personally invited her.
Zoe was a straightforward person, and genuinely wanted to help the hearing-impaired.
When Zoe called Marion, she explained exactly why she wanted Marion at the event.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe primary goal of the charity event was not just fundraising, Zoe aimed to draw attention to the
hearing-impaired community.
Although Marion was not that popular in Mystara, she was undoubtedly a celebrity abroad. At last
year’s Grammy Awards, Marion’s solo performance lasted a remarkable 6 minutes.
Zoe had already arranged everything. She wanted to create a significant impact beyond Mystara with
the charity event and attract more attention. Marion was undoubtedly the best choice to make a
lasting impression.
However, with Marion being kicked out by the staff fawning over Althea, Zoe could not overlook the
matter, even if Marion chose not to pursue it.
Besides, Marion had no intention of truly withdrawing from the performance’. When she left for the
restroom just earlier, Marion had already called Zoe to inform her of her decision.
She believed that Zoe would personally invite her back.
Marion had everything planned, but she had not expected Miley’s intervention which left Marion no
room to react.
Miley was unaware of Marion’s plans. She had thought that Marion intended to endure the situation.
“You usually keep a low profile. Even now, with Althea, a popular idol, walking all over you, are you still
going to endure it?”
Marion was about to clarify that she had no intention of enduring it, but she noticed Lucas ending the
call and approaching her.
Marion blinked, and felt embarrassed about letting Lucas in on her ‘little scheme’. She decided to
stop before he could find out.

2/2
Lucas walked over and looked at Marion.
“Do you still want to perform on stage?” he asked her bluntly.

Marion glanced at Miley, who caught the hint and swallowed her words.
“Well, I don’t think my performance will be canceled so easily…”
Just then Miley’s phone rang.
It was Zoe. Miley instinctively looked at Marion. “It’s Zoe. Should I answer?”
“Go ahead.”
Miley nodded. “I’ll see what she has to say.”
Before leaving, she could not resist saying to Lucas, “Mr. Craig, please talk to Marion. She doesn’t
want to do anything about the bullying.”
Marion, who had no intention of letting the bullying slide, felt awkward. Did she seem like a doormat?
After Miley spoke, she took her phone and stepped aside.
Marion touched her ear awkwardly and then addressed Lucas.
“This isn’t what you think.”
She needed a moment to come up with a convincing explanation.
Lucas raised an eyebrow. “Then what is it?”
