Chapter 180 I Want to Go on a Date
Alice hesitated for a moment, then quickly pulled out a check from her bag, filled in five million dollars
and handed it to Marion. “Money is a good thing! You’ve got good taste, Mrs. Craig!”
Marion looked at the five million dollar check, unsure how the situation had escalated to that point.
Seeing her hesitation, Alice instantly asked, “Is the amount too little?”
To make matters worse, Lucas, on the side, added more to the confusion, “Do you think my wife would
lack this five million?”
For the first time, Alice felt that Lucas was right in what he said.
She nodded, “Indeed, what about ten million? No, that won’t do. It’s still too little. How about thirty
million? My year-end bonus is a bit low this year…”
As she spoke, Alice felt embarrassed. She re-filled a thirty million check and handed it to Marion, “I

piano practice anymore. I’ll leave now!”
Afraid that Marion would not accept it, Alice hurriedly left with her bag and high heels clacking as she
left.
Marion lowered her head and looked at the thirty million dollar check in her hand. She had never felt
so bewildered in her life.
After contemplating for a moment, she looked at Lucas, “Mr. Craig, may I ask a presumptuous
question?”
“Go ahead.”
Lucas walked to the bar, poured two glasses of water, took one for himself, and handed one to Marion.
“Thank you.” Marion took the water, took a sip, and then asked, “Are rich people like you so fond of
giving money to others? Last time, you suddenly transferred a billion to me, and now Alice casually
gave me thirty million. Am I giving off the vibe of someone in need?
If that continued, Marion felt like she was going to get lost in the world of money and lose her
direction in life.
Lucas gave her a sidelong glance, “No.”
“Well, if not, why did Miss Alice give me money?”
Lucas looked at her, his black eyes smiling, “I gave you money because you like money, and Miss Alice
gave you money for the same reason.”
Hearing Lucas’s words, Marion blurted out, “There are plenty of people in this world who like Why don’t
you give money to others?”
“Because others are not you.”
money.
As he looked into her eyes, Marion sensed a hint of gentle affection coming from him.

money that much.”
“Yeah, I know.”
Lucas said, looking at her with a smile, “I don’t like money that much either, but no one would complain
about having too much money, right?”
Marion hesitated for a moment as she looked into the smiling black eyes.
Her heartbeat accelerated, and she desperately did not want to discuss money with Lucas. She wanted
to talk about love! How could a man’s smile be so charming and dangerous at the same time?
Lucas, noticing her silence, raised an eyebrow, “What are you thinking? If you have something on your
mind, you can say it.”
Marion, without much thought, blurted out, “I don’t want to talk about money with you right now.”
“What do you want to talk about then?”
“I want to talk about ‘dating’.”
‘Marion, you really need to watch what you say!’ she thought to herself.
