As Lucas spoke, his eyebrows twitched slightly. Then he looked straight at Marion.
“I wouldn’t call it a good deed, just wanted to give ‘Eternity‘ to you.”
Marion understood his words and immediately blushed. Lowering her head to look at the bracelet on her wrist, a faint smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
‘Eternity‘. The name sounded quite nice.
She reached out to touch the bracelet on her wrist again. “Thank you, I really like it.”
Lucas watched her for a moment before suggesting, “Let’s get some rest.”
Marion was about to respond when the doorbell of the villa rang. She breathed a sigh of relief.
“That must be the errand runner, I’ll go get it.” With that, she turned and ran outside.
Lucas watched her retreating figure. With a faint smile on his lips, he turned and headed to the closet, grabbed a set of pajamas, and headed into the bathroom.
Marion stopped as soon as she ran out of the door. She glanced back at the room before pursing her lips and heading downstairs.
On the ground floor, Mrs. Bailey had already seen the delivery man and was holding a box in her hand.
When she saw Marion, she smiled and called out, “Madam, the items you requested have just been delivered.”
Marion took the package, tore the outer wrapping, and opened the gift box, taking out two invitations.
Cassie was very thoughtful. One was for Lucas and the other for her.
Of course, both she and Lucas could enter the event without invitations.
Marion flipped through the invitations. They were clearly custom–made, not your ordinary invitations.
She reached for her phone to send a message to Cassie, but then remembered her phone was on the vanity table in the bedroom. Marion had no choice but to take the invitations upstairs. When she opened the door to the master bedroom, she happened to see Lucas coming out of the bathroom.
He had changed into his loungewear, his freshly washed face looking fair and smooth. Stray strands of hair clung to his forehead, and a droplet of water dripped down from the tips.
Marion watched as the droplet of water fell onto his cheek.
“The invitations?”
Lucas’s voice broke the silence, and she realized she had been staring at him for several seconds.
Her face grew warm, and she quickly averted her gaze and handed him the invitations.

“They’re custom–made. They put quite some effort into them.”
Lucas reached out and took the invitations.
He examined them for a moment before handing them back to her.
“Hmm. You keep them. We’ll go together when the time comes.”
Marion took back the invitations. “I’ll take a photo to send to Cassie!”
She raised the invitations slightly, then went to the vanity table to pick up her phone to take a couple of photos. Then she sent the photos and a message to Cassie: [Received].

Then Marion placed the invitations back on the table.
Holding her phone, she stood up and turned to Lucas.
“Aren’t you going to rest?”
The curtains in the room were drawn, dimming the light outside.
Lucas sat on the bed, looking at her. “And you?”
“I… I’ll rest too.” Marion pressed her lips together.
“I’ll change into my pajamas.”
She hurried into the bathroom. When she emerged, she was wearing a set of pure pink satin pajamas.
Lucas was already on the bed. He had set aside his phone and laid his head back on the pillow.
Marion climbed into bed beside him.
After a moment she turned to look at Lucas. “Can I hold you?”
