    The faint scent of oranges lingered in the gym, mixed with the heat Marion had left behind.


    Lucas strode over to the massage gun, picked it up, and ced it back in its spot. It was not even in


    the right ce, yet Marion thought she could get away with a lie.


    Since Lucas almost caught her sneaking into the gym yesterday afternoon, Marlon had been afraid to


    exercise there in the afternoons. Hence, she went to bed earlyst night and woke up early in the


    morning.


    After breakfast with Lucas, she helped him with his tie and watched his ck Bentley roll away before


    returning to the vi to change into her workout clothes.


    It was not advisable to engage in intense exercise right after breakfast, so she rested for an hour,


    discussed weekend ns with Cassie, and then started her workout.


    It had been a while since she exercised, and despite using the massage gun to rx yesterday, her


    muscles still felt sore. Nevertheless, Marion gritted her teeth and pushed through.


    After two hours of strength training, her hands were shaking from exhaustion.


    Once she finished with the massage gun, she copsed onto the floor, staring up at the ceiling. The


    events of yesterday afternoon still sent shivers down her spine.


    Would Lucas suddenlye back for lunch?


    Though worried, she could not bring herself to move from her spot on the floor.


    When a knock sounded on the door, Marion’s heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively sat up.


    Before she could fully sit up, Ronda’s voice came from outside the door. “Madam, it’s almost


    lunchtime.”


    She breathed a sigh of relief and replied loudly, “Thank you, Ronda.”


    Then, Marion sat for another five minutes before heading to the shower.


    After lunch, Marion practiced piano for an hour. Feeling exhausted by mid–afternoon, she returned


    to her room and fell asleep.


    It was Friday, and Lucas had an urgent meeting at night and would not be back for dinner. As such,


    Marion ate alone.


    After dinner, she yed a couple of games with Cassie. Feeling guilty about the uing


    performance at the end of the month, she sat down at the piano to practice again.


    She practiced until 10 p.m., and still, Lucas had not returned.


    Marion picked up her phone, only to realize he had messaged her an hour ago, telling her to go to bed


    first.


    Chapter 436 Thinking She Could Get Away With A Lie


    She had been married to Lucas for nearly four months, and that was the first time he had yed the go


    to bed first” card.


    Something big must have happened at thepany. Afraid to disturb him, Marion sent a meek emoji in


    response, wished him good night, and went to shower before bed.


    She had to be up at 7 a.m. tomorrow, or she would bete for rehearsals, and it would be noon before


    she knew it.


    At 11:35 p.m., Lucas emerged from the meeting room, his expression icy and devoid of emotion. Daniel


    trailed behind him, not daring to make a sound.


    Thepany’s gship product for the second half of the year was set tounch next month, but at


    that critical juncture, three test machines had experienced overheating issues.


    After personally interrogating the team, Lucas learned that the tech department had yet to fully resolve


    the problem. However, with theunch date looming, they were forced to push out the product with


    iplete data.


    They had attempted to argue in the meeting room, iming they were close to resolving the issue.


    However, both Lucas and Daniel found their excuses far–fetched.


    The building was nearly empty at that hour, with only the sound of footsteps echoing through the


    corridors.


    Lucas returned to his office and picked up his phone. When he saw Marion’s message, his expression,


    previously stoic, softened slightly.
