Marion kept a composed face. She had figured out that Jameson was not giving up. She pursed her lips and looked up at Lucas with a hint of embarrassment. “I probably won’t go back tonight.”

Her hand tightened nervously, fearing Lucas might not let her stay over that night.

“Moving in early might be a good idea,” he said casually.

He turned off the TV, and the surveillance footage disappeared. Lucas put down the remote control and gazed at Marion. In a calm and unhurried manner, he added, “I forgot to mention, Mrs. Craig,

our house has only one bedroom.”

“It seems that you don’t quite trust me,” Lucas remarked, as he rose from his seat and walked toward
