The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 285 I’m Not Insulting Anyone!

Marion abruptly ended the call.

Cassic applauded. “Awesome! You’re my idol! I’ve never seen anyone dare to hang up on Lucas!”

“You’re not Daniel. How do you know I’m the first one to hang up on Lucas?” Marion retorted.

“Oops, I may have gotten ahead of myself!”

Their table was ready as they chatted.

After the n

meal, Marion wanted to visit a high–end store, and the two friends moved on to the nearest shopping

mall.

Unfortunately, luck was not on their side and they bumped into people they would rather avoid.

Before they entered the Good Witch Wardrobe, Marion spotted Ruby and Jade inside. Cassie also

noticed them and glanced at Marion. “How about we go to Louis Vuitton?”

“Wouldn’t that make me seem scared of them?”

“Yeah, you’re right.”

Marion straightened her posture and walked in. She pretended not to see them but Jade could not

resist opening her mouth, “Oh, Mrs. Craig, what a coincidence.”

Marion sighed internally.

Why did some people talk so much?

Cassie, who had annoyed Jade the last time, was not about to let it slide, “Yeah, quite a coincidence.

Before we came in and saw you, we were having such a great day! Hope it doesn’t start raining soon!”

At the mention of rain, Jade recalled the last time they met. Her face darkened, and Ruby quickly

interjected, “It’s been a while, Mrs. Craig.”

Marion nodded indifferently, “Indeed it has.”

Marion wondered if it was necessary to exchange pleasantries with Ruby.

She refrained from saying anything else, but Cassie, ever ready to stand up for Marion, blurted out, ”

Do we really need to talk to them?”

Ruby’s face stiffened, and Jade quickly chimed in, “Cassie, did you wake up on the wrong side of your

bed? We’re just saying hello. Is it necessary to be so harsh?”

“We walked towards this side as soon as we entered. It was obvious we didn’t want to greet you. If you

can’t take a hint and insist on coming over to say hi, what’s wrong if I say something?” Cassie

retorted.

“Why are you insulting us, Cassie?”

“I’m not insulting anyone!”

Marion had to hold back her laughter. She pondered over the most difficult moments in her life to

stifle her amusement. ‘I’m not insulting anyone‘ – felt like an understatement when it came from

Cassie!

Jade did not grasp the situation for a moment, thinking Cassie had suddenly softened. She was

dumbfounded, saying, “Just…just speak nicely will you?”

Marion chuckled softly.

Jade did not understand what Marion found amusing, but she thought Marion was laughing at her. ”

What’s so funny, Mrs. Craig?”

Suppressing her laughter, Marion glanced at the salesperson and gestured at the two sets of clothes.

she fancied.

Then she turned to Jade. “Nothing much. I suddenly remembered a movie I watched last night. There

was a female dog who imitated humans quite well.”

Jade turned red at the implication and was about to retort when Ruby pulled her and gave her a look.

Then Ruby took out an envelope from her purse. “Mrs. Craig, this is my engagement invitation. If you’re

free next Saturday, it would be great to have you and Mr. Craig grace us with your presence.” “Mr.

Craig is so busy, I’m sure he won’t have time to accompany Mrs. Craig!” Jade said triumphantly. Marion

did not have anything to say to that.

She feared that if Lucas was genuinely busy that day, it would be embarrassing to refute Jade’s claim.

“Oh,” Marion said as she gracefully accepted the invitation. “Congratulations, Miss Ruby.”

Ruby actually considered Jameson a catch. Marion found Ruby’s love–addled brain to be even more

terrifying than her own.

Marion felt that Ruby’s courage in marrying him was misplaced.

Was she not afraid Jameson would run away from his marriage again?.
