Chapter 272 Is It My Turn Now

Marion was momentarily stunned, thinking it was Mrs. Bailey. Without much thought, she went to open the door. “What’s up, Mrs. Bailey?”

As soon as the words left her mouth, she looked up and saw the familiar face of a man.

In an instant, her eyes reddened. “M–Mr. Craig?”

Realizing she was losing control, she quickly averted her gaze, blinking rapidly in an attempt to hold back her tears. “Why are you back?”

However, she could not stop the tears from rolling down her cheeks in the end.

Feeling relieved that she could still joke around, Lucas asked, “Are you upset?”

He did not say much, but Marion felt even more upset, “I… Kirk and I are just friends. How can they say such things about me?”

After holding back for so long, she finally let it out.
