Chapter 160 Her Thoughts Lagged Behind

Because of Lucas’s words, Marion had another erotic dream.

The next day when she woke up, Marion looked up at the ceiling and began to doubt herself.

She was someone who blushed even when holding hands with a boyfriend, so why did she keep

having dreams that left her blushing in the dark?

The male protagonist in the dream was none other than Lucas, her ‘fake’ husband with whom she had

signed a contract for an open and honest collaboration.

Why on earth was she dreaming about touching Lucas’s abdominal muscles? Was she really that

desperate?

As she descended the stairs, Marion saw Lucas tilting his head back to drink water. Her gaze fell on his

Adam’s apple moving up and down, and she unconsciously swallowed.

She tried to empty her mind! It was not her fault, given the kind of man Lucas was. Who would not have

some impure thoughts?

“What are you looking at?” Suddenly, Lucas turned his head to look at her.

Marion did not even have time to react, and the words slipped out, “Looking at you!”

How could she say such a thing?

“Oh.” His dark eyes flickered, passed over her slightly pursed lips, and finally settled on her round

eyes.

They locked gazes. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Marion hated her mouth for flying ahead while her thoughts lagged behind!

She dared not speak again, afraid that saying more would lead to more mistakes. Blushing, she walked

over and sat opposite Lucas, burying her face in breakfast.

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday. Following Daniel’s instructions, Marion cleared two hours in

advance, but in reality, she cleared three hours.

The evening gala was at 8:00 p.m., and Marion was picked up at 4:00 in the afternoon to prepare at the

clubhouse.

Her evening gown was personally chosen by Lucas.

Since his salary increase that evening, Daniel suddenly understood the true essence of a raise.

He contacted several big-name designers and got a few custom-made dresses, but before finalizing

the options, Daniel had a bright idea. He sent the pictures to Lucas for his decision.

2/2

After entering the clubhouse at five o’clock, Marion received an all-encompassing beauty service

before starting the makeup process.

It was the first time Marion faced such an elaborate setup. Even during the pre-wedding makeup for her

ceremony with Jameson, she had simply invited a team to assist at home.

The clubhouse had everything one could imagine. To accommodate their esteemed guest, the entire

clubhouse closed its doors in the afternoon, to exclusively serve her.

Marion was surrounded by a group of people bustling around her. Throughout the process, all she

needed to do was lift a hand or foot.

If she had not been shy, they would have even dressed her in the evening gown without her having to

lift a finger.

The dress itself had a simple design with a pleated V-neck at the chest. It was sensual yet not too

revealing. The small bubble sleeves added a touch of elegance.

The white gown accentuated Marion’s waist and hugged her hips, showcasing her curves vividly.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Marion felt she was looking at someone unfamiliar to her.

Her makeup had always leaned towards a fresh princess style, with few attempts at the simple yet

vibrant look.

The makeup artist and several assistants could not help but praise Marion excessively, “You look

stunning Mrs. Craig. If someone else wore this gown, it might either make them look darker or fatter,

but on you, it highlights your delicate figure and exudes unparalleled beauty!”

At that moment, the stylist brought out a jewelry box, “Mrs. Craig, this is a necklace specially prepared

for you by Mr. Craig.”

Opening the box, the stylist revealed a vine-like diamond necklace that sparkled in the light,

momentarily blinding Marion.

Wearing gloves, the stylist picked up the necklace and helped Marion put it on, “Mr. Craig really treats

you well, Mrs. Craig! This necklace, just like its name implies, is Transcendent.”

Transcendent?

Was it “The’ Transcendent? The 637-carat, 55-million-dollar necklace?
