Chapter 98 Goodbye, One Hundred Million Dors


    Marion smiled stiffly and stepped aside to let the infuriated Veronica enter the vi.


    Veronica hade specifically to find Marion today, taking advantage of Lucas’s absence.


    At the door just now, she thought Marion was foolish, but each word from Marion carried a sting.


    Frustrated, Veronica sat down and immediately ordered Marion to fetch her some


    tea.


    Marion simply took a bottle of mineral water from the fridge and ced it in front of Veronica. “I think water is good enough for


    you.”


    Veronica looked at Marion, as she mmed the table. “Do you even understand the basics of hospitality?”


    “| do, but you’re not my guest.”


    Marion smirked, her round eyes twinkling with mischief.


    Veronica noticed that Marion did not take her seriously at all. Since that was the case, she did not want to waste any more time.


    “Miss Marion, | see you’re a clever person.”


    After her groom fled the wedding, Marion managed to get married to Lucas in just two months.


    Marion was not a fool.


    Veronica had been careless just now.


    Suppressing her anger, Veronica lifted her head slightly and reverted to the haughty demeanor she had when Marion opened the


    door. “I’m not happy abouting here today, but no matter what, Lucas is my son. In the Craig family, we will never allow a


    woman like you to marry someone like him!”


    Marion looked at Veronica and continued to smile. “That’s a little hypocritical.”


    Although she was just ying the part of Lucas’s wife,pared to Veronica, who was a mistress, Marion felt she was not ina


    bad position!


    Veronica did not miss the sarcasm in Marion’s words. She was so angry that her hands were trembling. She reached into her


    bag and took out a check. “Here is fifty million dors. If you divorce Lucas within three months, this fifty million will be yours.”

    Chapter 98 Goodbye, One Hundred Million Dors


    Marion took the cheque, counted the zeros on the back, confirmed that it was indeed fifty million, and then spoke. “I’m sorry, but


    I''m not that kind of person.”


    She was not a fool. Lucas was worth more than that!


    Veronica seemed to have anticipated Marion’s response. She sneered and pulled out another check. “Here’s another fifty million,


    making it a total of one hundred million dors. Just divorce Lucas within three months.”


    One hundred million dors.


    Marion swallowed nervously. Honestly, she was somewhat tempted to ept the offer.


    Silky Corp had been on a downhill trend for several years, and its annual revenue was declining. At this point, the annual


    turnover might not even reach one hundred million dors, let alone gain pure profit.


    People in her circle said she married Jameson for the climb, and there was some


    truth to that.


    Richard was not cut out for business, but he managed to keep Silky Corp afloat until now, which was no easy


    feat.


    Lucas’s stepmother was quite generous. If Marion was notmitted to her role as Mrs. Craig, she might have considered


    epting the offer.


    One hundred million dors! Who would not be swayed by that amount?Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    If she took the money, her father could retire and enjoy hister years, and she would have more confidence to reject certain


    commercial performances.


    The more Marion thought about it, the more tempted she became. To avoid embarrassing herself, she pressed her hands tightly


    together. “Lucas’s value is priceless.”


    Veronica knew what Marion meant. She was so angry that she stood up. “You''ll regret this!”


    Then she abruptly snatched the checks from the table and left. The sound of her high heels ttering as she made her way to


    the front door.


    Marion watched Veronica’s receding figure and felt a sense of loss for the wealth she could have gained.


    She sighed. She had really wanted it!
