Chapter 380 Are You So Easily Pleased, Mrs. Craig? With each step Lucas took up the stairs, Marion felt herself trembling, and with each second, her heart pounded faster.

Marion’s breath, which had just calmed down, gradually becrapid. She lifted her head slightly. As she stared at Lucas’s perfect jawline, she could not help but gulp nervously and think, ‘Is something going to happen later?’ The thought made her tense up subconsciously, and all sorts of unhealthy images began to pop into her mind.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Lucas had carried her into the room.

Marion found herself placed on the bed, clutching the sheets beneath her. Her heart pounded as if it might leap out of her chest at any moment.

“Let's take a shower. It's not too late,” Lucas said.

Marion lifted her head and blinked at him.

Lucas looked at her, too. “Do you want to shower together?” Her face flushed, and she shook her head hastily. “I-I'll go and take a shower!” She was overthinking it, and it was all Cassie’s fault! Marion jumped off the bed and hurried into the closet, where she grabbed a set of pajamas. Then, she dashed into the bathroom, closing the door behind her.

Lucas looked at the bathroom door, his dark eyes flickering. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, raised his hand, and toyed with the plain ring on his finger.

After Marion took a shower, tiredness hit her. She replied to Cassie’s message on her phone and then opened Instagram to catch up on gossip. [x] Lucas was still in the shower, and she wanted to wait for him to sleep together.

Although it was a nice thought, her tiredness would not allow it. When Lucas cout, Marion had fallen asleep with her phone in hand.

He raised an eyebrow, walked over, took her phone, and placed it aside. Then, he got into bed and pulled her into his arms.

The next morning, Marion was awakened early by a phone call. It was from Richard, her father.

Today was Marion's 27th birthday.

“Marion, happy birthday! I've prepared a birthday gift for you. Someone will deliver it to you later.” “Thank you, Dad! I'll be back tonight to have dinner with you!” Richard smiled. “It’s your birthday today. Why don’t you go out for salone twith Lucas? | have plans to go fishing with my friend tonight.” Marion refused to believe Richard, but she appreciated her father’s kindness. “In that case, we'll chtomorrow and have dinner with you.” “Great!” After hanging up, Marion's phone was flooded with messages from Cassie, Alice, Miley, and Kirk. They were all birthday wishes for her.

Marion replied to each one, and by the tshe finished, more than ten minutes had passed.

Suddenly, she remembered Lucas and wondered if he knew it was her birthday today.

Just as she thought of him, Lucas, fresh from swimming, pushed the door open.

Marion looked at him eagerly. “Good morning.” “Good morning.” Lucas walked over to her and said, “Happy birthday, Mrs. Craig.” A playful glint sparkled in Marion’s eyes. “Thank you.” 11 Lucas smirked, “Are you so easily pleased, Mrs. Craig?” Marion chuckled nervously. “Where's my birthday present?” Without a word, Lucas lifted her off the bed.

Startled, Marion instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck. “What are you doing?” All he did was smile and carry her to the balcony. “Mrs. Craig, take a look.” Marion glanced down subconsciously and saw the garden below filled with roses. She distinctly remembered that there was nothing there when she cback last night! She looked at Lucas in disbelief. “Did you set this up in the morning?” “Last night.” He brushed aside a strand of hair from her face. “I wanted to show you at midnight, but you seemed a bit tired.” Marion felt a little embarrassed. “I don’t know why | was so tired last night.” She looked at him with sparkling eyes and kissed him on the cheek. “I love it. Thank you.”
