The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 85 It Was Too Expensive

Marion sat in the wheelchair, while Lucas pushed it from behind. Just as they came out of the elevator, the adjacent one opened too. The person stepping out was none other than Jameson.

Accompanying him was a woman, but it was not Sally.

Marion was quite surprised. Sally had not managed to secure her position—it seemed her status was not high enough.

Marion glanced at the two of them briefly before redirecting her attention. Lucas, on the other hand, did not spare a glance at Jameson and his companion. He simply pushed the wheelchair straight into the restaurant.

Jameson had not expected to run into Marion there. It had been several days since he last saw her. When he saw her, he instinctively called out to her. “Mar!”

However, before he could finish his sentence, Lucas had already pushed Marion into the restaurant.

Jameson’s expression turned sour. He turned to glance at Ruby Black. “Miss Ruby, how about we reschedule for another day?”

Ruby, however, was not inclined to postpone their meeting. “Mr. Royce, since we’re all here, why not have a meal together? Besides, Miss Marion is dining here with her newlywed husband. If you dine with me, are you afraid of feeling guilty?”

Ruby’s words hit a nerve with Jameson. Thinking about Lucas and Marion inside, Jameson abandoned his plan to leave. “You’re right.”

The top–floor starry sky restaurant had a design with a fully transparent glass ceiling. When one entered, one would spot a small stage of about ten square meters, with a piano.

As Marion and Lucas entered, someone was playing ‘Canon in D‘ on the piano. The restaurant was spacious, occupying half of the top floor, and the distance between tables was vast. The ambient noise from diners conversing did not stand out much in such a spacious setting.

Before arriving, Lucas had already arranged for a reserved spot–a cozy window- side booth.

“Mr. and Mrs. Craig,” the waiter gestured, and Marion rose from the wheelchair to take her seat. Lucas sat opposite her, and the waiter promptly folded the wheelchair away.

Marion had been to the restaurant once before with Cassie, but she could not
