Chapter 275 Women Love Receiving Flowers
That night, they did not go out for dinner because Lucas had an urgent document to deal wi
Marion watched Lucas’s retreating figure and let out a small sigh of relief.
She raised her hand to touch her slightly flushed cheeks and took a moment to compose hers before
turning to go upstairs to get her “dead” phone.
Not surprisingly, as soon as she turned on her phone, she received a flood of messages from Cass
Cassie: [What did he say? It’s not another case of Jameson, right?)
Cassie: [Public opinion seemed to be turning around a little. Oh, Amber Collin’s studio has also spoken
up!]
Cassie: [Your husband’s company has posted a lawyer’s letter on Facebook! Damn. How am f
supposed to ship you and Kirk like that?]
Then, Cassie sent a few screenshots.

Before replying to Cassie’s messages, Marion went downstairs again.
Alice had not left yet. She was sitting in her stylish sports car with a bouquet of flowers in hand.
Seeing Marion coming out, Alice quickly got out of the car. “Did Lucas hit you?
Marion was startled. “No, why would he hit me?”
Alice snorted, looking displeased. “It’s hard to say. Lucas sure is good at pretending! Look at how he
was single for so many years. He might be an abusive guy!”
Marion believed that if Alice continued, Lucas might end up committing murder. Hence, she quickly
changed the subject. “Thank you, Alice. I feel much better now. There was a misunderstanding about
what happened last night, and public opinion online has turned around. You don’t need to worry about
me.”
Alice had just seen the clarification from Amber’s studio. Despite her dissatisfaction with Lucas, she
was not the type to casually defame someone. “It’s good that you’re feeling better. Don’t pay attention
to those comments online. Those netizens are just bored and rotten.
“What I mean is that you don’t need to bother about their nonsensical talk. They just want a place to
vent!”
Understanding it was one thing, but actually being completely indifferent to it was pretty challenging.
However, Marion’s primary concern was not the online chatter. She was upset that Lucas had not
shown up last night, presumably spending time with another woman.
Even though she knew she had no right to feel upset, she could not help it.
Of course, Marion would not tell Alice about those feelings. Hence, she sm.at Alice
know. Thank you, Alice.”
“Alright.” Alice glanced at the roses in her arms. “Do you want these flowers? Women love son flowers”
Marion naturally would not refuse that kind gesture. “Thank you. I really like them!”
Alice was tactful. Since Lucas had come back to explain the situation to Marion in person, there was

no need for her to sow discord between the couple.
“In that case, I’ll head back. If Lucas bullies you, you must let me know!”
Upon hearing that, Marion could not help but laugh. “Sure, thanks.”
Although it was amusing, it was also touching.
Alice returned to her car, and Marion waved goodbye.
Suddenly, Alice recalled something and stopped the car. “Wait! I forgot to tell you! Amber is not as
simple as she seems. When I was studying abroad, I heard Lucas had a relationship with her, but they
broke up because Amber didn’t want to return to the country at the time.
“Now that she’s suddenly back in the country, it might be related to Lucas!”
Alice bared her heart to Marion, who was very grateful.
However, even if Amber was not as she seemed, what could Marion do about it? Could she fight with
Amber for Lucas? Could she win?
