Chapter 368 I Pursued Him


    The door swung open, revealing Lucas’s cousin, Danica Johanson. At just neen years old, she was


    a third–year student at Mystara University. Learning that Lucas was bringing Marion over for dinner that


    night, she had specially taken a day off to be there.


    Danica was not the least bit shy of Lucas, and it was evident that their rtionship was close.


    “Marion, you look much prettier in person than in my mom’s photos. I don’t even want to mention those


    photos!” Danica, a lively and talkative broadcasting major,plimented Marion.


    Marion’s face turned red at thepliment.


    “Come now, Danica,” Lucas interrupted Danica with a nce at Marion’s reddened ears. “She’s very


    blunt.”


    Danica yfully stuck her tongue out at Lucas and bent down to fetch a pair of slippers for Marion.


    “I can handle it myself, Danica,” Marion quickly reached out to take the slippers.


    “Your voice is so sweet! My heart flutters when you say my name,” Danica teased.


    Marion awkwardly epted thepliment, changed into the house slippers, and walked into the


    house with Lucas.


    Aunt Mindy and Uncle Gerald Johanson were in the kitchen as Danica brought them tea. “Have some


    tea, Marion.”


    “Thank you.” Marion picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea.


    Soon, a boy about Danica’s age came downstairs. “Lucas, you’re here!”

    Seeing Lucas, Gale’s eyes visibly lit up. Danica pped him on the back of his head. “Didn’t you see


    Marion?”


    Gale looked embarrassed as he addressed Marion. “Hello, Marion. I’m Gale, Danica’s brother.”


    “Oh gosh, Gale!” Danica smacked him again, and he immediately. howled, “Danica, are: you even a


    girl? You’re so aggressive! Look at how gentle Marion is!”


    Marion did not know what to say to that.


    ‘Don’t mind me,‘ she thought to herself.


    After some yful banter between the siblings, Mindy came over from the dining room. “What’s all this


    noise? Don’t scare Marion!”


    Mindy wore an apron and held a green onion in her hand. Marion smiled and greeted her, “Hello, Aunt


    Mindy.”


    “Make yourselves at home. Your uncle and I just finished thest dish. Please wait a moment,” Mindy


    said as she swung the green onion at Gale. “Quiet down, Gale!”

    Gale ducked in time to avoid the green onion.


    The two siblings stopped their antics, Gale handed the TV remote to Marion, saying, “Here, you can


    watch what you want.”


    “Thank you,” Marion said but did not take the remote. Lucas looked at her and then ced the remote


    in her hand. “No need to be so nervous. Just treat it like your own home.”


    Lucas held her hand and sat beside her while he chatted with Gale.


    Danica moved beside Marion and whispered, “Marion can I ask you a personal question?”


    Marion lowered her head, looked into Danica’s mischievous eyes, and smiled. “Go ahead.”


    “How did Lucas manage to pull you? Lucas isn’t as simple as you think. He’s quite sinister! He can


    deceive people, and they’d thank him while counting the money he earned from selling them!”


    At her shocking words, Marion nced at Lucas.


    Was he a sinister man? There was a bit of truth to it perhaps. But considering how she initiated the


    marriage, it was more like she was the one who pulled Lucas.


    It made Marion feel slightly guilty about it. “I was the one that pursued him.”
