The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 287 Bringing Mrs. Craig Home

Dawdling until half–past nine, Marion finally decided to go home. Cassie’s conscience suddenly kicked in when Marion was getting ready to leave. “How about you stay the night at my place?”

Marion had vented her frustration all day and was feeling less upset. In the end, it was all in her head, as Lucas had not done anything wrong.

They were in a business partnership, and his concerns about their relationship changing were normal. Although it saddened her, he was not wrong.

“Forget it, I won’t go back tonight. Who knows, tomorrow there might be rumors of my marriage falling apart again.”

She did not want people laughing at her as it seemed to happen quite frequently lately which inevitably led to awkward situations at home.

Cassie pursed her lips. “Then I’ll take you downstairs.”

“Yeah, sure.”

After spending the entire day outside, Marion was exhausted. She felt dispirited.

Thinking that Marion was in a bad mood, Cassie tried to cheer her up in the elevator. “Once upon a time, a wolf who had just gone through a breakup passed by a wooden house while searching for food. Suddenly, he heard a man inside scolding his mischievous son, ‘If you cry again, I’ll throw you out to feed the wolves!‘ The wolf heard this and decided to wait outside the house all night. When morning came, the wolf was disappointed as he muttered to himself. ‘All men are liars!‘ he said to himself”

Marion glanced at Cassie without expression. “So…what’s your point?”

Cassie awkwardly replied, “The point is that even a wolf knows men are all liars.

Marion did not know how to respond to Cassie.
