Chapter 268 It’s Just An Act

However, Marion did not face harsh criticism. Instead, she received compliments.

Of course, she was aware that the news of her and Kirk had been trending for the past two days.

Yesterday, after the entire day of rehearsal and her concert at night, she returned home to find Lucas

still absent.

She planned to shower and ask him about his absence when he returned.

However, she ended up lying down and falling asleep within minutes, forgetting all about waiting for

Lucas.

She was so exhausted that she slept straight through to ten the next morning. When she woke up, her

phone was buzzing with messages from Cassie and Alice. She did not think much of it, assuming it

was related to the concert last night.

She was too hungry to check her phone immediately, so she rushed to wash up before heading

downstairs for breakfast.

Mrs. Bailey brought out some eggs on toast as soon as she saw Marion. “Madam, Sir said he’d be

back for lunch.”

Marion was taken aback for a moment. “Oh, okay. Make sure you prepare his lunch today.”

Without suspecting much, Marion took a bite of the eggs on toast and then checked the messages from

Cassie and the others.

Not only had Cassie messaged her, but Lucas had as well last night.

However, he had messaged after she had fallen asleep, asking if she was home and if he should come

pick her up.

After staring at the chat box and hesitating, Marion eventually replied, [Sorry, Mr. Craig. I was too tired

yesterday and fell asleep. I didn’t see your message.”

Lucas was usually occupied at this time, so after sending the message, exited the conversation and

started reading Cassie’s messages.

Marion

Around midnight last night, Cassie had sent her seven or eight messages, all about how Marion had

unexpectedly become popular during Kirk’s concert and various screenshots.

Cassie: [Hahaha, Marion, Kirk’s fans are shipping you and Kirk! It’s hilarious!} Cassie: [Seriously, the

more I look at it, the more I ship the both of you! I’ve been

brainwashed!]

Then, around eight in the morning, Cassie sent another WeChat message with a screenshot. [Are you

still asleep? Who is Amber Collins? Did Lucas not come to see you because of her?]

Marion’s heart skipped a beat. She opened the screenshot, and the glaring text made her eyes ache.

[Three months into Marion Cartier’s age with Lucas Craig, he spends the night with the charming lady.]

The screenshot showed Lucas and a masked young woman getting out of a car and entering a hotel in

the early hours. The time on the photo was 12:50 a.m. last night.

Lucas had messaged her at 11:10 p.m. last night. Therefore, was Lucas with that Amber woman last

night?

Marion could not quite put her feelings into words. There was a moment when she recalled herself not

impulsively confessing her feelings for Lucas that night. Since she did not know how to respond to

Cassie’s messages, she just sent an “I don’t know” emoji.

Then, she opened Alice’s message. [Marion, are you awake? Is the scumbag cheating on you? Tell

me, and I’ll beat him up for you!]

Marion: [No, he’s not.]

Even if he were, in the face of true love, she, as the fake Mrs. Craig, did not count for anything.

It was just an act, after all.

However, why did it hurt so badly?
