The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 300 Ah, So That’s How It Is!

The engagement banquet did not start so quickly, and Marion arrived neither too early nor too late.

She chose a quiet corner, planning to stay for a while and then leave. But then she encountered someone familiar.

“Miss Marion, do you remember me?”

Marion certainly remembered him. It was Lucas’s friend, Martin.

“Hello. It’s been a while.”

Having someone familiar around made Marion feel less awkward. Martin smiled, “Didn’t expect you to still remember me.”

“We’ve met twice.” Her memory was not that bad.

Martin raised his eyebrow. “Is Mr. Lucas too busy to accompany you today?”

Marion nodded, “He’s on a business trip. I forgot to tell him about this event.”

Martin nodded, “No wonder. I was wondering why Lucas would let you come to a place like this on your own.”

“A place like this?”

Marion found Martin’s words amusing.

“Yeah, a place like this.”
