Chapter 248 Mr. Craig Appears in the Next Second


    Marion anxiously opened her phone to Lucas’s reply. [Okay.]


    Just one word?


    Marion was speechless. ‘Mr. Craig, are you sure you won’t say something else?”


    How about a little praise for her?


    However, after waiting for several minutes, there was no further message from him. Alright, maybe she was just overthinking

    Putting her phone down, Marion lifted her head and noticed the host on stage looking at her. She instinctively nced at Cassie


    beside her. “Don’t tell me | got picked?”


    Cassie pointed to the number in front of her. “If you’re not number 45, then no, you didn’t get picked...”


    Marion quickly shook her head. “I can’t. I’m a married woman!”


    However, the allure of a free bill was too strong. Marion quickly shoved the number into Cassie’s hands and grabbed the one in


    front of her, saying, “Cass, tonight’s bill counts on you!”


    Watching Marion’s swift moves, Cassie remarked, “Did you learn how to y the piano for those fast fingers?”


    “It''s all about making money; there’s no difference.”


    The host on stage, witnessing Marion’s actions, seemed shocked. However, being a professional host, he knew the game rules


    did not prohibit changing numbers.


    So, he pretended not to notice and shifted his attention to Cassie. “Miss, would you like toe up and exchange Instagrams


    with this handsome gentleman?”


    Marion nced at the stage, thinking the host might be exaggerating. To her surprise, the man on stage was indeed good—


    looking, with a decent fashion sense.


    Marion promptly pushed Cassie up. “Cass, this is your chance! Go and seize it!”


    Cassie, usually more talk than action, suddenly found herself exposed in the spotlight. Marion’s push left her no turning back,


    and Cassie blushed as she reluctantly went up to give her username.


    Thankfully, there were no further interactions. Cassie was asked a few irrelevant questions by the host before being let go. After


    that, she avoided being a mentor in front of Marion.


    Marion could not help but gloat. “How was it? Is he handsome up close or not?”


    Cassie looked embarrassed. “I didn’t take a close look.”


    “But you followed him on Instagram, right? Check his story and see what he’s like, just in case!”


    Cassie had been single for years, and Marion was genuinely concerned. Even though these games on special asions were


    not reliable, who could resist fate when it came knocking?


    Cassie nced at Marion, took out her phone, and opened Instagram. The exchange had been made on the spot, with the host


    watching. So, her follower request had been epted.


    Cassie just clicked in when a message popped up. [Hey, Cassie, may | ask if your friend is single? My friend is also single and


    would like to follow your friend. Is that okay?]


    Marion saw the message directly, her face turning ck. [Delete it, delete it! Quickly block that person!]


    She was at a loss for words. How could there be someone like this?


    Feeling unlucky, Cassie blocked the person without a second thought. They both tacitly decided not to bring up the matter again


    and focused on watching others‘ excitement.


    They leisurely enjoyed over two hours of folk music. At around 9:30 p.m., Cassie could not resist it any longer and said she was


    heading back.


    Marion gave her a side-eye. “Didn’t you say you wanted to see handsome guys?”


    Cassie gritted her teeth. “Marion, be careful of karma.


    Marion, fearless, retorted, “If | don’t look for handsome guys, what karma can | attract?”


    “Who knows? Maybe a Mr. Craig will appear in the next second.” Teasing her best friend was Cassie’s specialty.
