Chapter 408 - Oktoberfest at the Schneider Mansion (1/2)

The arrival of Jean, giving Marion a piggyback ride surprised everyone and for a few seconds they turned silent.

”Hello everyone, I found Marion under the hill with a sprained ankle, so I brought her here,” Jean said, smiling sweetly to everyone.

Petra and Endo covered their mouths in surprise. They knew how tough Marion was, and they couldn't believe that the girl would voluntarily allow a man to carry her on his back just because she sprained her ankle; they could not believe what they were seeing.

Lauriel was also rather surprised to see Marion return this soon. This afternoon he had met her and told her to come to the Grosseto next week, but apparently Marion returned tonight instead; and what was even more surprising was that the girl came with Jean.

Jean carefully sat Marion on a lawn chair then gently asked if she wanted to drink or eat something. ”Let me get it. You just sit there nicely, okay ...”

Marion who was not used to being treated so gently by any man started to feel awkward. All this time she was able to get along well with the men in her group, The Wolf Pack, and they all treated her like a man, just like they treated the other members.

Marion had never been romantically involved with a man before. She had worshiped Lauriel ever since she joined the Wolf Pack and had always loved him ever since. She never expected that it would feel so nice to be treated as a lover by a ”normal” man.

She looked at Jean who winked at her and gave a sign with his hand to remind Marion of the Mona Lisa painting.

Ugh ... alright. Since she would have to pay Jean dearly and give up one of the most expensive paintings in the world that she possessed, there was nothing wrong with using the man to spoil her in front of Lauriel. Right?

Finally Marion smiled sweetly and pointed at the glass of German beer at the end of the table, ”I ... want to drink that.”

”All right, Princess,” Jean then brought two glasses, one for him and one for Marion, then invited the girl to a toast.

Petra, Endo, Esso, Neo, and Peach could only look at each other then drink their beers while rolling their eyes. Finland, who had just come out of the house, saw what had happened but couldn't guess what Jean's true purpose was.

Jean just broke up with Billie. Was her best friend interested in Marion? She hoped that was not true. Caspar, who saw the direction of Finland's gaze, immediately understood what was happening.

Smiling sweetly, he hugged his wife's waist and greeted her in a soft voice, not wanting to be outdone by the way Jean treated Marion, ”What do you want to drink, Honey?”

All the single men who were present at the garden could only look away and finish their drinks. They did not want to witness the intimacy of Caspar and Finland. Too much dog food was thrown at them - from both Jean and Marion; and Caspar and Finland.
