Chapter 121 Candy from the Other Day

Marion caught Lucas’s eye, and she felt uneasy.

Initially, she had intended to continue playing, but after a short segment, she found it challenging to withstand the intensity of the man’s gaze. She stopped and asked, “Is there something you need Mr. Craig?”

Lucas lightly tapped his hand on the piano. It seemed he had no intention of pressing the issue. “Is there any of that candy from the other day left?”

“Huh?” Marion was taken aback by the unexpected question. After a moment of hesitation, she said, ” Yes, I have some in my room.”
