Chapter 315 This Bitch Is a Bit More Sophisticated
Marion could not think of anything particularly delicious. After some thought, she hesitated for a moment then suggested, “Pasta?” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Sure.”
As it was the weekend and they had not made a reservation in advance, there were no available seats
in the Italian restaurant.
In the end, Lucas took charge and redirected them to a private kitchen. It was almost half–past seven by the time they were done with dinner.
As they were leaving, Marion suddenly heard a familiar voice.
It was none other than Ruby, the central figure of the past few days‘ discussions. Ruby had also noticed Marion and Lucas.
Ever since realizing that Amber had betrayed her, Ruby believed that Lucas was behind it all. Seeing Lucas, she instinctively felt afraid. Ruby glanced at them for a moment and then ran away.
Marion was surprised at Ruby’s reaction.
The last time she bumped into Ruby at the store, she chose to ignore Marion even though they were acquainted.
Why did Ruby run away after just exchanging glances today? Well, considering Ruby’s most recent scandal, it made sense.
“What are you looking at?”
Marion looked at him. “I think I saw Miss Ruby just now.”
“Which Miss Ruby?” he asked as he walked with her.
Marion frowned, “Jameson’s fiancée.”
“It seems like you still care about him.”
“What? No, I don’t! Please don’t misunderstand me!‘ she pleaded silently.
“I attended their engagement banquet just last night,” Lucas continued, “and this morning, it seems we also enjoyed their ‘melons“.”
Thinking about Ruby’s saucy photo, Marion’s face suddenly heated up.
Why did Lucas bring up that matter again?
When they reached the car, Marion looked at him as he opened the car door for her, “Thank you.
Lucas glanced at her, closed the door, then walked around to get into the car.
After an afternoon of horse riding, Marion felt tired. She did not want to nap in the car, so she took

out her phone to chat with Cassie and divert her attention: (Calling for Cassie!]
Cassic: [What happened? Weren’t you out horse riding with your husband?]
For some reason, Cassie had hit a nerve though Marlon could not tell what was wrong

Marion: [Yeah, just finished dinner and heading home now. I’m in the car and feeling a bit sleepy, so I wanted to chat with you to distract myself.]
Cassie: [Huh? Can’t you talk to your husband? Why talk to me?]
Marion: [He’s driving.]
Cassie: [Fine. Was horse riding fun? I might try it someday!]
Thinking about having spent the
tire afternoon in Lucas’s arms, Marlon blushed at her thoughts
and replied guiltily: [It was quite fun.]
Cassie: [How long have you been learning? Is the instructor strict?]
Cassie sure knew how to get to the point. Marion felt she might be exposed if she continued that line of conversation: [1 met someone at the horse ranch.]
Cassie: [Tell me more!]
Marion: [Remember when there were rumors about me and Lucas having marital issues? She was the
other woman‘.
Cassie immediately remembered: [Amber?]
Marion could not help but marvel at her friend’s capacity for gossip: [Yes! It’s her! Lucas was teaching me to ride, and she suddenly rode over, saying hi to us.]
Marion: [What can I say? I feel she’s a bit too bold because she called Lucas by his nickname.]
Even Marion did not know Lucas’s nickname!
Cassie: [I’m more curious about how Mr. Craig taught you to ride.]
Marion: [That’s not the point!]
Cassie: [I get it! The point is, you didn’t know Lucas’s nickname. So she had deliberately gone over, called your husband by his nickname right in front of you!]
Cassie: [Isn’t this some she–devil drama? This bitch is a bit more sophisticated. Be careful, Mar!]
Marion had spent the entire afternoon trying to figure out what was wrong, while Cassie had succinctly pointed out the issue in just a few words.
She also shared the dinner incident with Cassie, who responded with passion: [Damn, this woman is clearly trying to snatch your man!]
