    Although there were still several takes that did not meet the mark, Marion got into the groove and was


    finally able to proceed with the shoot.


    At first, Marion struggled to evoke the required emotions, but gradually, she leaned into it.


    While her acting skills were not top–notch, she more than managed to handle the promotional video,


    Moreover, her expressive eyes were fetching, especially considering her role as a mute girl.


    Overall, the shooting went smoothly.


    They started filming at two in the afternoon and finished by seven in the evening. By the time they left


    the building, it was already getting dark outside.


    Lucas was waiting by the car. Marion had not noticed him at first but Miley pointed him out by gently


    tapping Marion on the shoulder and excitedly asking, “Hey, look, isn’t that Mr. Craig over there?”


    The streetlights had alreadye on by seven, and Lucas was standing beneath one of them.


    When Marion looked up and recognized her husband, she instinctively ran towards him.


    She had not seen him all day, and she missed him terribly!


    Lucas opened his arms as Marion approached him in a rush.


    – Marion dove into Lucas’s embrace, first nuzzling against his chest and then inhaling his familiar


    scent of cedar wood. She looked up at him and asked, “How long have you been here?”


    Lucas looked at her, warmth flowing in his clear eyes, “About two hours.”


    “Ah!” Marion eximed, “You’ve been waiting for so long! You must be starving!”


    “I was hungry earlier, but not anymore,” he chuckled, giving her a meaningful look, “You’re good


    enough to eat.”


    Marion’s face flushed slightly, “There are other people here you know!”


    Marion remembered the group of people who had walked with her.


    Had she just thrown herself into Lucas’s arms in front of all of them?


    Marion froze as the realization came to her.


    She was so embarrassed!


    As Marion stood frozen on the spot, Miley and Kirk approached.


    Marion forced herself to turn around and nce at them, “Um, my husband is here to pick me up.”

    Kirk nodded, “Alright, we’ll head off then.”


    He then walked towards the car parked on the other side of Lucas’s car.


    Miley and Zoe exchanged brief pleasantries before they also departed.


    Lucas watched Kirk’s car gradually drive away, then casually shifted his gaze back to Marion,” Hungry?


    What would you like to eat?”


    “I’m starving! Anything,” she replied.


    He smiled, “You’ve worked hard, Mrs. Craig.”


    Marion chuckled awkwardly, “It wasn’t too bad.”


    She followed him into the car, feeling exhausted after a whole day of shooting.


    Liam tactfully adjusted the car’s air conditioning so Marion, dressed in a short–sleeved shirt, did not


    feel cold.


    Marion nced at Liam and hesitated before leaning against Lucas.


    She tilted her head and rested it on his shoulder, “Today scared me! Miley told me that Kirk liked me!


    Lucas raised an eyebrow at her words, “Oh?”


    Marion nced at him, slowly recounting the day’s misunderstanding, “Luckily I asked, or it would’ve


    been so awkward.”


    Lucas hooked his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him, “If it were true, Mrs. Craig, what


    would you have done?”
