The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 259 A Close Call

In the next moment, Marion found herself being handed a box of candies.

“A business trip gift.”

Marion looked at the box of candies. “Thanks.”

She should not have complained just now!

“Rest early so you can recover quickly.”

Marion, who originally wanted to share the candies, hesitated. “Alright.”

The man glanced at her lowered eyes, loosened the top button of his collar, and said, “I’ll escort you back to your room.”

“Oh, no-”

Before she could refuse, Marion was already carried by Lucas.

The refreshing scent of wood instantly approached, and she subconsciously tightened her grip around his neck.

Actually, having a leg injury was not that bad!

Realizing what she was thinking, Marion quickly pinched herself.

Stop it! How could she have such naughty thoughts?

Fortunately, Lucas soon carried her to the door of the room.

When Marion was put down, she quickly released her grip, too afraid to meet those black eyes. She glanced briefly at him before avoiding eye contact, saying, ” I’ll go rest now.”
