Chapter 376 Was The Battle Suit | Got You Good? In a daze, Marion thought she heard Lucas’s voice.
She slowly opened her eyes, but the light from the windows was too bright. Squinting, she adjusted to the light before fully opening her eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Lucas sitting beside her, she was somewhat surprised. She blinked and asked, “Did | sleep all day?” Lucas looked at her pale lips and gently helped her up, pulling her into his embrace. “No, | cback right after the meeting.” Marion said with embarrassment, “I just got my period.” However, she could not stop herself from smiling.
“There was nothing important going on today.” He held her close, one hand supporting her while the other rested on her belly. Marion wanted to stop him, but she withdrew her hand eventually.
He was her husband. What was wrong with him comforting her? It was not illegal; it was perfectly reasonable! With that, Marion comfortably enjoyed seven days of Lucas rubbing her belly. In fact, her cramps had stopped on the fourth day, but she deliberately kept quiet because Lucas’s hand felt warm and comforting on her belly.
After her period, Marion felt revived.
1 Just as she recovered, Cassie invited her for dinner. x] Coincidentally, Lucas went on a business trip yesterday, so Marion had given Ronda the afternoon off.
Since she felt much better after her period, even though it was just dinner with Cassie, she put on smakeup and wore a pretty dress.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCassie had been working all week, finally making it to Friday. As soon as work ended, she grabbed her bag and left.
Overtime? Who would want to work overtime? Well, she did not! This time, Cassie and Marion planned to visit Cassie's favorite place, Butcher's Cottage. It was a tricky place to book, but Marion, who had nothing much to do, arrived early and grabbed a seat by the window.
She arrived earlier than expected, so there were still seats upstairs. However, the private rooms were too expensive, and Marion and Cassie were on a budget.
Nevertheless, the window seat was especially nice as it overlooked rows of trees and a stream below with two geese swimming.
Cassie arrived earlier than expected. “What are you looking at?” As soon as she entered, Cassie noticed Marion looking out the window. Hence, she sat down, took a sip of water, and looked out the window too. “Wow, there are geese!” Marion quipped, “Could they be swans instead?” Cassie glanced back. “Are they? | can’t see clearly. They're too far away.” Marion huffed. “Let's order, or it'll get crowded, and we'll have to wait a while!” Cassie had not eaten much for lunch, and after a busy afternoon, she was starving “Let's order!” Cassie had been working overtall week, all because of the client's demands. She complained while ordering, “I'm speechless! | spent three days revising it for them, and in the end, they said they'd stick with the first version! Yesterday, | almost cursed them! Okay, | know what | want. Babe, what would you like?” After Cassie finished, she handed the menu to Marion again, finished her water, and looked at Marion, all curious.
“Is the battle suit | got you good?” Marion decided on the barbeque ribs and did not immediately catch Cassie’s drift. She glanced at her and then lowered her head to choose a snack. “What battle suit?” While she spoke, she called for a waiter.
However, as soon as she called for someone, Marion heard Cassie say, Marion was left speechless.
