The Bride s Revenge ( Marion Cartier And Jameson Royce ) Chapter 374

Chapter 374 Then There’s No One Else 

“Brown sugar and ginger tea. Have some.” Lucas brought the cup to her, and though it had cooled a bit, it was still warm. “Be careful, it’s hot.” 

Marion looked at him, and blinked once, realizing her pettiness. She felt a twinge of guilt and she watched him hold the cup, the handle exposed for her. Her heart warmed. 

Marion quickly took the cup. The freshly brewed tea was steaming. She thought about using her free hand to check Lucas’s palm for any burns, but she was too weak, so she abandoned the idea. 

Lowering her head, she blew on the hot liquid and took a sip. In the next moment, he had his hand on her abdomen again. 

Marion looked at Lucas. “How did you know to brew this?” 

He even knew to buy her nighttime pads! He had even made brown sugar and ginger tea for her menstrual cramps! Although the gestures themselves were heartwarming and touching, just the thought that he had done such things for someone else made Marion feel bitter. 

Suddenly, she remembered what Amber had said about him and her throat felt constricted. The steam from the tea caused her eyes to become moist. 

However, she also knew she was being unreasonable. Marion blinked back her tears, trying to appear casual as she asked, “You seem to understand quite well what girls need during their periods. How 

come?” 

Lucas looked at her with a half–smile, not exposing her inner turmoil. “Sometimes even Google can 

be reliable.” 

Marion’s expression softened, and the eyes regained some of its brightness. The tightness in her chest lessened. She blinked a few times, suppressed her tears, and casually asked, “Have you ever made brown sugar and ginger tea for someone else?” 

“Never.” He replied as he looked at her. “And what about you? Has anyone ever bought sanitary pads for you?” Marion’s smile quickly faded as he turned the question back on her. 

She made a wry face. “Does Cassie count as someone else?” 

Lucas shifted one hand to cover her stomach. “No, she doesn’t.” 

“Okay, then there’s no one else,” she said, lowering her head, feeling embarrassed to meet his gaze. 

The tea in the cup was now mostly consumed, and the remaining portion was not as hot anymore. Marion started drinking faster. 

In just two minutes, she finished the drink and handed him the cup. “All done.” 

“Is your stomach still hurting?” 

Marion nodded, then shook her head. “A little, but not too much.“. 

“Go rinse your mouth.” 

Lucas placed the cup aside. “Do you need me to help you up?” 

Marion immediately shifted down from the bed. “No need, no need! It’s just menstruation, not an amputation!” 

She put on her bedroom slippers, went into the bathroom to rinse her mouth, and came out to find Lucas still sitting on the bed. 

Marion walked over, got into bed, and obediently slipped under the covers. “You go take a shower.” 

Lucas still had to go to work the next day. 

“Yeah, you go ahead and sleep.” 

Marion looked at his hands for a while, and could not resist reaching over and lightly touching them. Did you get burned earlier?” 

There were no blisters on his palm. She sighed in relief. Lucas extended his other hand. “Check this one too.” 

Marion made a face, shook his hand, and said, “You better go take a shower.” 

After that, she tucked herself under the blanket and said in a muffled voice, “I want you to hold me while I sleep.”
