Chapter 157 I Need Her to Accompany Me

Marion opened her eyes and realized it was just a dream. She sighed in relief, and covered her face

with her hand, trying to understand why she would have had such a dream.

After reflecting for a moment while sitting on the bed, Marion went to freshen up. By the time she

finished, it was already past nine in the morning.

Having slept around 1 am the previous night, Marion had overslept. Yawning, she walked downstairs in

the quiet, expansive villa. As she headed towards the kitchen, she was greeted by Mrs. Bailey, who

promptly brought breakfast to the table.

“Thank you, Mrs. Bailey. How was Lucas’s appetite this morning?” Marion asked, almost slipping up.

Mrs. Bailey placed a stack of radish cakes on the table. “Mr. Craig had a similar appetite to before.”

Nodding, Marion inquired, “What time did he leave this morning?” Then, feeling guilty, she added, ”

I woke up late today, so I’m not sure when he left.”

Mrs. Bailey did not think much of it. Marion was on vacation, and sleeping in was normal. “Mr. Craig left

at half-past eight.”

Early, Marion thought, feeling relieved. She did not want to face Lucas too soon, especially after her

embarrassing dream.

The charity event issue had settled down. Marion had been receiving calls from unknown numbers

daily, but she did not like answering unfamiliar calls due to the prevalence of telecom fraud in recent

years.

Unbeknownst to her, the calls were from Arthur’s assistant.

After being hung up on ten times, the assistant informed Arthur, who, upon hearing the news, was so

furious that he could not eat lunch that day. He immediately called Lucas, demanding he divorce

Marion within three months.

“What if I refuse?” Lucas asked coldly.

“You will no longer be my son!”

“Then I am no longer your son. After all, you still have another one, don’t you?”

Arthur was so furious that he hung up the phone immediately.

Lucas glanced at his phone as his thin lips curled into a mocking smile.

Daniel sensed something was off as soon as he entered the office.

He straightened his posture before he spoke. “Mr. Craig, there’s an event this Friday hosted by

Richmond Corp. What do you think?”

Lucas glanced at the invitation on the desk. “Not interested:”

“Alright.”

Daniel nodded and turned to leave. Just as he reached the door, Lucas spoke up, “Wait.”

Daniel had to turn back. “Mr. Craig?”

“Do I need to bring a female companion to this event?”

Daniel was puzzled but answered, “Yes, it’s customary. However, if you choose not to, it’s perfectly fine

given your status.”

Even without a female companion, with Lucas’s social status, he faced no opposition to entering the

party and no one dared to utter anything unfavorable about it.

Lucas picked up the invitation. “Have it sent to my wife’s house. Get someone to inform her that I need

her to accompany me to the event.”

What? Daniel wondered whether he had heard Lucas correctly.

“Any problem?”

“No problem, Sir. I’ll immediately arrange for someone to deliver the invitation to your wife.”

“Good.”

Lucas nodded, and Daniel promptly took the invitation to dispatch someone to deliver it to Marion.
