Chapter 94 Is It Too Obvious?
Getting drunk and offending someone was embarrassing once one was sober.
Fearful of any consequences from Lucas, Marion hastily shifted the topic. “Mr. Craig, are you going
back to the company later?”
“Yes,” he replied, his emotions indecipherable.
Marion bit into her sandwich, finding that she had no heart for it.
When Lucas had almost finished eating and took a sip of his Americano, he glanced at her. “Do you
have plans today?”
“No,” she replied. With a limp in her leg, she did not make it a point to arrange for anything.
“I’ll come back for lunch.”
Marion pondered the meaning behind Lucas’s words. Was he implying that she should prepare lunch
for him? She looked at him and tentatively asked, “Should I make lunch for you when you come back?”
As the words escaped her lips, Marion blushed. Why did it sound so much like something a wife would
say to her husband? Although they were technically a married couple, the nature of their relationship
was questionable.
After observing her for a moment, Lucas asked, “Aren’t you practicing the piano?

“I am.”
Thinking about the upcoming charity concert, Marion hesitated for a moment but decided it was better
to mention it. “By the way, I have a charity concert on
the 20th.”
“Where?”
Without much thought, Marion replied, “At Vuitton International.”
“Okay,” Lucas said as he put down his coffee cup. “The cook will come to make lunch later. If you want
something specific, let her know. In the afternoon-”
He paused, then added, “Never mind.”
After speaking, Lucas got up and headed upstairs. Soon, he came back down, dressed in a shirt and
trousers. His fair skin made the scratch marks on his left neck stand out conspicuously. I caught
Marion’s immediate attention. She wanted to conceal them.

With some hesitation, Marion said, “Mr. Craig, aren’t the scratch marks too obvious?”
Lucas gave her a meaningful stare. Marion’s face turned hot and red. The scratch marks were indeed
suggestive. If Lucas went back to the company with those marks…
Marion did not even dare to think further! She bit her lip. “How about I cover them up with concealer?”
Afraid that Lucas might not agree, Marion quickly added, “It’ll be very quick, just half a minute!”
Lucas checked his watch. “I’ll give you five minutes.”
“Okay! I’ll go upstairs and get the concealer!”
Worried that Lucas might change his mind, Marion hopped upstairs as she dragged her injured leg.
Since her right leg had not fully recovered yet, she leaned on the staircase railing and hopped up each
step.
Lucas stood downstairs and watched as Marion’s ponytail bounced with each movement. There was
amusement in his eyes.
She truly was like a rabbit.
Marion quickly returned with the concealer and secretly breathed a sigh of relief to find him still
standing in place. She did not want to bother him, but since she portrayed herself as “Mrs. Craig” to the

“Mr. Craig, please have a seat on the sofa.”
Lucas glanced at her but did not say anything. He gracefully walked over and took a seat on the sofa.
Marion opened the concealer, adjusted the color on the back of her hand, and then bent down, and
carefully applied the concealer with a brush.
Lucas’s skin was exceptionally fair, and the concealer made a noticeable difference.
Luckily, Marion was resourceful. She grabbed some foundation and applied it over the concealer. Her
own skin was also fair, so the foundation’s shade blended perfectly onto Lucas’s neck.
“Is it done?”
Due to the hot weather, Marion was afraid that his sweat would smudge the concealer and foundation.
She had initially planned to use a setting powder. However, when she heard Lucas speak, her hand
shook, and the powder puff
