The Bride’s Revenge

With each step Lucas took up the stairs, Marion felt herself trembling, and with each second, her heart pounded faster.

Marion’s breath, which had just calmed down, gradually became rapid. She lifted her head slightly. As she stared at Lucas’s perfect jawline, she could not help but gulp nervously and think, ‘Is something going to happen later?‘

The thought made her tense up subconsciously, and all sorts of unhealthy images began to pop into her mind.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Lucas had carried her into the room.

Marion found herself placed on the bed, clutching the sheets beneath her. Her heart pounded as if it might leap out of her chest at any moment.

“Let’s take a shower. It’s not too late,” Lucas said.

Marion lifted her head and blinked at him.

Lucas looked at her, too. “Do you want to shower together?”

Her face flushed, and she shook her head hastily. “I–I’ll go and take a shower!”
