Chapter 285 I’m Not Insulting Anyone!
Marion abruptly ended the call.
Cassic apuded. “Awesome! You''re my idol! I’ve never seen anyone dare to hang up on Lucas!”
“You''re not Daniel. How do you know I''m the first one to hang up on Lucas?” Marion retorted.
“Oops, | may have gotten ahead of myself!”
Their table was ready as they chatted.
After the n
meal, Marion wanted to visit a high-end store, and the two friends moved on to the nearest shopping mall.
Unfortunately, luck was not on their side and they bumped into people they would rather avoid.
Before they entered the Good Witch Wardrobe, Marion spotted Ruby and Jade inside. Cassie also noticed them and nced at
Marion. “How about we go to Louis Vuitton?”
“Wouldn''t that make me seem scared of them?”
“Yeah, you''re right.”
Marion straightened her posture and walked in. She pretended not to see them but Jade could not resist opening her mouth,
“Oh, Mrs. Craig, what a coincidence.”
Marion sighed internally.
Why did some people talk so much?
Cassie, who had annoyed Jade thest time, was not about to let it slide, “Yeah, quite a coincidence. Before we came in and
saw you, we were having such a great day! Hope it doesn’t start raining soon!”
At the mention of rain, Jade recalled thest time they met. Her face darkened, and Ruby quickly interjected, “It’s been a while,
Mrs. Craig.”
Marion nodded indifferently, “Indeed it has.”
Marion wondered if it was necessary to exchange pleasantries with Ruby.
She refrained from saying anything else, but Cassie, ever ready to stand up for Marion, blurted out, ” Do we really need to talk to
them?”
Ruby’s face stiffened, and Jade quickly chimed in, “Cassie, did you wake up on the wrong side of your bed? We''re just saying
hello. Is it necessary to be so harsh?”
“We walked towards this side as soon as we entered. It was obvious we didn’t want to greet you. If you can’t take a hint and
insist oning over to say hi, what’s wrong if | say something?” Cassie
retorted.
“Why are you insulting us, Cassie?”
“I''m not insulting anyone!”
Marion had to hold back herughter. She pondered over the most difficult moments in her life to
stifle her amusement. ‘I’m not insulting anyone’ — felt like an understatement when it came from
Cassie!
Jade did not grasp the situation for a moment, thinking Cassie had suddenly softened. She was dumbfounded, saying, “Just...
just speak nicely will you?”
Marion chuckled softly.
Jade did not understand what Marion found amusing, but she thought Marion wasughing at her. ” What''s so funny, Mrs.
Craig?”
Suppressing herughter, Marion nced at the salesperson and gestured at the two sets of clothes. she fancied.
Then she turned to Jade. “Nothing much. | suddenly remembered a movie | watchedst night. There was a female dog who
imitated humans quite well.”
Jade turned red at the implication and was about to retort when Ruby pulled her and gave her a look.
Then Ruby took out an envelope from her purse. “Mrs. Craig, this is my engagement invitation. If you''re free next Saturday, it
would be great to have you and Mr. Craig grace us with your presence.” “Mr. Craig is so busy, I’m sure he won''t have time to
apany Mrs. Craig!” Jade said triumphantly. Marion did not have anything to say to that.
She feared that if Lucas was genuinely busy that day, it would be embarrassing to refute Jade’s im. “Oh,” Marion said as she
gracefully epted the invitation. “Congrattions, Miss Ruby.”
Ruby actually considered Jameson a catch. Marion found Ruby’s love—addled brain to be even more terrifying than her own.
Marion felt that Ruby’s courage in marrying him was misced.
Was she not afraid Jameson would run away from his marriage again?.
