The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 42 He is Still Outside

With a ‘click‘ Lucas had unbuckled his seatbelt. He opened the car door but did not get out. His left hand rested on the steering wheel, and he leaned toward Marion, “Home sweet home, Mrs. Craig.”

He reached over and helped her unbuckle her seatbelt. Marion stiffened. The woody fragrance in the air made her hesitant to move. Fortunately, after Lucas unbuckled her seatbelt, he exited the car.

He circled to the back seat, took her wheelchair, and placed it in front of the garage door. There were three steps leading out of the garage. Marion had just hopped up one step when Lucas suddenly turned and lifted her.

“I can manage on my own.”

Lucas lowered his head, glanced at her, and showed no intention of putting her down. “It’s not the first time, Mrs. Craig. No need to be so polite.”

Marion found herself being carried to the living room on the first floor. The silver–toned decor made the entire living room seem spacious.

She was placed on the sofa. When Lucas bent down, the collar of his shirt loosened slightly, and she could not help but steal a glance at him.

Lucas’s physique was impressive!

“What would you like to drink?” he asked.

“Anything is fine.”

Lucas did not say anything more. He walked from her and disappeared behind the TV wall. Not long after, he returned with a glass of juice and ice water. He placed the juice in front of her and grabbed the TV remote. “Feel free to watch something. I need to make a call.”
