Chapter 18 But It’s All Because of Me

Marion tapped the screen of her phone, hesitated for a moment, and eventually typed out a message: [ Regarding our marriage, my dad shouldn’t make things difficult for you. If he does, let me know. I’ll talk to him.]

She understood her father’s feelings, and she believed he genuinely trusted her. However, she knew that her impulsive decision to marry Lucas might raise concerns, and her protective father would likely seek answers from Lucas.

Feeling that she had already caused enough trouble for Lucas on the first day of their marriage, Marion did not want to burden him further. [Mrs. Craig, you’re overthinking] came Lucas’s reply.

Seeing his response, Marion could not help but feel awkward. Maybe she was overthinking things. Lucas turned out to be quite different from what she had imagined. Regardless, they were bound to divorce sooner or later.

Shaking off her thoughts, Marion decided not to dwell on these less important matters. Tomorrow, she had a tough battle ahead with the Royces. Tonight, she needed a good night’s sleep.

Satisfied with the successful retaliation earlier in the day, Marion quickly drifted into a peaceful slumber after her meal. However, not everyone found it easy to sleep that night.
