Chapter 405 What’s Up with You?
Ever since Marion discovered Kirk’s feelings for her, she found herself in a complex and uncertain mood whenever she received messages from him. However, the content was strictly business–related, with Kirk sending her the finalized promotional video they had shot together that day. All he said was: [The final video is ready.]
Marion could only reply with a [Thanks] before she started downloading the video. Before that, had hesitated to open the message.
Cassie noticed Marion’s unusual behavior and waved her hand in front of Marion’s eyes, “What’s going on with you?”
Cassie was a fan of Kirk’s, and Marion did not want her to know about the situation. She quickly turned off her phone screen and shook her head, “Nothing, just got distracted for a moment.”

“You looked so serious. Thinking about Lucas perhaps?” Cassie raised an eyebrow, giving Marion a meaningful look.
“No…”
“Marion replied awkwardly.
“Don’t be shy! After all, absence makes the heart grow fonder! Plus, if he wasn’t away on a business trip, I wouldn’t have had a chance to have dinner with you tonight!”
Cassie’s diversionary tactic helped Marion forget about Kirk’s matter for the time being. Marion decided to avoid Kirk as much as possible in the future since they would not be collaborating anymore.
“Do you want to go shopping later? I heard the autumn collection is out this week. Let’s go check out Tidal Wave Plaza!” Cassie suggested.
With Lucas away on a business trip, Marion did not,want to return to the vast villa alone. “Sure.”
After lunch, they headed straight to Tidal Wave Plaza, with Marion driving the Maserati that Richard had given to her. It was her first time driving the car, and she was extremely cautious, fearing any accidental scratches.
However, trouble arose when it came time to park. Marion had spotted the parking space first and was preparing to reverse into it when a Ferrari swooped in and stole the spot.
Cassie was furious and got out of the car to confront the driver, “What’s wrong with you? We saw this parking spot first!”
The door of the Ferrari opened, and a young, attractive woman stepped out from the driver’s seat.
The woman removed her sunglasses and looked disdainfully at Cassie. “Just because you saw it first, doesn’t mean it’s yours for the taking.”
The woman in the passenger seat stepped out as well, still typing on her phone as she spoke contemptuously. “Come on, let’s go. Why bother with her?”

Marion also unbuckled her seatbelt and spoke up, “I spotted this parking space first.”
The woman in the driver’s seat, Cady Nowak, rolled her eyes. “So what? Is your name on it?”
Meanwhile, the passenger finally looked up from her phone and frowned when she saw Marion. “It’s you!” Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Cassie quickly stepped forward to Marion’s defense. “Who do you think you are? Stop pointing fingers at us.”
Marion recognized the woman and huffed, “Have you been drinking today, Miss Regína?”
Regina Heron had previously rear–ended Marion’s car and then tried to blame Marion. Miley reported her to the police, only to later find out that Regina had been driving under the influence.
Thinking back to that morning, Regina’s face turned sour. She glanced at Marion’s car and said, “You should call the police!”
With that, she looked at her companion and said, “Let’s go!”
The two of them left as Marion stared at them in disbelief.
The cars behind honked impatiently, and Marion had to hold Cassie back, “Forget it, it’s not worth it
with people like them.‘
Cassie heard the honking behind them and snorted disgustedly before returning to the car.
