Marion felt as if she had received a reprieve and quickly stood up, “It’s time for dinner!” With that, she opened the door and went downstairs with Mrs. Bailey.
She walked so quickly that she did not notice the tumultuous waves in the man’s black eyes after she left.
Lucas tilted his head and shielded his eyes with his hand. Only when his emotions gradually dissipated did he stand up and head downstairs.
When will the foolish rabbit realize his intentions? He was getting impatient.
After her misunderstanding, Marion devoted herself to learning how to cook soup from Mrs. Bailey, She put great effort into preparing his lunch. After finishing, she proudly carried the lunchbox, ready to play the role of a virtuous wife.
Marion's thoughts were idyllic, but reality was cruel.
The front desk treated her with the utmost respect, and Marion’s mood remained excellent until she reached Lucas’s office. Marion learned from Daniel that Lucas had a lunch appointment that day.
That was not good.
Daniel's assistant had noticed the lunchbox in Marion’s hand and quickly intercepted her.
“Mrs. Craig, since you've come all the way, why not wait until Mr. Craig returns? He should be back around one o’clock. He should be here in an hour!”
Marion dared not wait for Lucas to come back! It was not Lucas’s fault, but she was disappointed. After all, she had put a lot of thought into his lunch.
She felt both upset and embarrassed. She was eager to leave immediately. However, Daniel's assistant took Marion into Lucas’s office and, after serving tea and snacks, promptly locked the door!
Marion sat for five minutes, contemplating whether she should leave. However, when she picked up the lunchbox to leave, she found that the door to Lucas’s office was locked from the outside.
What was the assistant up to? Why did he lock her in there? Marion returned to her seat.
After sitting for a while, she felt hungry. However, she did not dare to eat the lunch she had packed. It would be awkward if Lucas came back and found her having lunch there.
Well, it was already quite an awkward situation to be in. She reluctantly ate a piece of snack that she had been served but it barely filled the void in her stomach.
Marion was extremely bored and unable to leave, so she took out her phone and told Cassie about the ridiculous situation she was in. However, she did not receive any comforting words from her good friend and, instead, got some merciless teasing.
Cassie could not understand Marion’s frustration at all!
Unable to find solace from Cassie, Marion did not want to chat with her anymore. She opened the Honor of Kings to pass the time.
Just as she logged into the game, someone unlocked and pushed open the office door.
Marion thought it was Lucas’s employee realizing their mistake. However, when she looked up, she found that the person entering the office was Lucas himself.
She was dumbfounded. “Weren't you at a lunch appointment?”
“It ended.”
Lucas left his appointment with Mr. Prius early. Lucas closed the door, loosened his tie, and walked over to Marion. “Why brings you here?”
Marion felt awkward and could not bring herself to say that she had come to deliver his lunch. “I just happened to be passing by and thought I’d drop in.”
“Passing by with a lunchbox?”
He sat down beside her and asked, “Have you eaten?”
“No, I’m a little hungry.”
‘And your staff trapped me here!‘ she was tempted to add.
Lucas took the lunchbox from her hands. “Perfect timing. | haven't eaten much, and I’m hungry.”
Then he opened the lunchbox.
