Chapter 188 Bumping into the Enemy
Cassie had a look of triumph on her face.
As she looked at Marion with an air of authority, she said, “Moreover, Lucas is your legitimate husband. What''s wrong with
touching him? Even if you kiss him, he can only ‘endure’ it! Right?”
Marion’s face turned red. Cassie was right, but saying such things in public made her feel ufortable.
Quickly changing the topic, she said, “You''re right! Anyway, why do you think Alice publicly expressed her gratitude to me?”
As soon as Alice’s name was mentioned, Cassie’s attention shifted, “Speaking of which, Miss Alice is so unpredictable.”
Marion breathed a slight sigh of relief.Exclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.
At that point, the food had arrived. The two friends chatted about Alice’s incredible actions andined about some envious
people in their social circle. They enjoyed their meal together.
Marion identally overindulged and felt ufortable with her stuffed stomach, “I think I’ve
eaten too much.”
Cassie, who had also overeaten, patted her slightly bulging belly, “I’ve eaten too much too!”
They exchanged a nce, understanding each other without words. They got up, paid the bill, and
decided to stroll around the mall.
Perhaps everyone else also shared the need to walk around the mall to ease their ufortable tummies. After thoroughly
exploring the sixth floor of the mall and enjoying another pleasant meal, Marion and Cassie decided to head home around nine in
the evening.
However, when they reached the entrance of the mall, they realized something was wrong. The weather was fine when they
entered, but now it was suddenly pouring rain. The clear path they had walked in on was no longer essible.
Marion nced at Cassie, “How are you going to get back?”
Marion was not too concerned for herself. Worst case scenario, she could call her dad, and the driver would pick her up.
“No problem. I''ll wait for the rain to stop before leaving,” Cassie replied, unconcerned. “What about you? Is Lucasing to pick
you up?”
Marion shook her head, “He has a dinner appointment tonight.”
At that hour, Lucas’s dinner appointment probably had not ended yet.
Right after Marion finished speaking, a female voice interjected abruptly, “If he’s noting, he’s noting. What’s with all this
talk about a dinner appointment?”

The sarcastic tone in the woman''s voice was familiar.
Marion and Cassie both instinctively turned their heads to look to the side.
It was Ruby and her friend, Jade Johnson.
Marion was speechless. It was truly a case of an unfortunate encounter, running into the new lover of
an ex.
Jade nced at Marion and deliberately asked Ruby, “Isn’t Jameson just back from a business trip today? Can hee to pick
you up?”
Ruby smiled faintly, “He’s already on his way.”
Cassie, observing the drama unfold, was ready to step in and give someone a piece of her mind.
Although Marion was angry too, many people were waiting there for the rain to stop and she did not
want to cause a scene.
Ruby and Jade’s words may not have bothered others, but if Marion and Cassie went over and made a scene, they would only
be the subject of mockery.
“Let it
go,
Cas.”
“| have to go over there and shut her mouth!”
As soon as Cassie finished speaking, a ck Mercedes pulled in. People waiting at the mall entrance instinctively looked toward
the car. Many looked envious.
“Wow! Wonder who''s so lucky for a Mercedes toe pick them up!”
“Damn, whose boyfriend is that? He’s so handsome!”
“Oh my God, isn’t this a scene from a drama?”
In the rain, Jameson walked over, holding a ck umbre. Cassie sneered, “Scumbag
Marion nced at Jameson briefly and then averted her gaze. She had no interest in seeing Jameson again. Every word spoken
to him felt like a waste of her time.
Jameson quickly approached Ruby and Jade.
Most of the people who were curiously observing Jameson earlier now shifted their attention to Ruby.
