Chapter 6
Cassie quickly returned after printing the documents. Seeing Marion sitting there in silence and Lucas no longer in the hospital room, Cassie became curious. “Did Mr. Craig leave?”
Marion snapped out of her thoughts, glanced at her friend, and replied, “He had urgent matters at his company.”
“Oh, I see.”
Richard had not finished handling the paperwork yet. Cassie sat on the chair behind Marion and then leaned on her shoulder. “Marion, what compensation did you ask for?”
Marion turned her head to look at Cassie. She took a deep breath, and said, “That day, my mind wasn’t very clear, and I brought up…”
“Brought up what?”
Knowing Marion for many years, Cassie understood that she was not the kind of person to take advantage of a situation. If she were, how could she end up in a situation with Jameson escaping from the wedding?
“It’s nothing. You don’t have to feel any psychological pressure. Lucas isn’t short of money. Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem for him. How much money did you ask for? Just tell me.”
“I didn’t ask for money; I made a request.”
“What request?”
Marion did not want to hide it from Cassie; it’s just that she knew her request was quite unconventional.
“The paperwork is done.”
Richard had returned.
Marion glanced at Cassie. “I’ll talk to you later.”
