Since She Met Lucian novel Chapter 89

After Mrs. Chen left the kitchen, Amelia took a deep breath, regained her composure and focused on cooking.

"Amelia, I have to admit that I was surprised that you could cook so well at such a young age." Mrs. Chen complimented Amelia’s cooking when she smelled the flavorful aroma of the dishes.

In that moment, Amelia got an excessive amount of praise for her cooking. However, in the back of her mind she couldn’t help thinking about Lucian.

Her heart wondered if he had eaten or not...

"Mr. Lucian, you haven’t eaten your breakfast. Smoking would have a negative effect on your health." Pushing the lunch box forward, Eric whispered in Lucian’s ear, "Miss Sasha prepared this soup for you. Would you like to have some first?"

Showing no interest, Lucian did not even raised his head to look at the lunch box. He continued dealing with the documents then words escaped his mouth, "Just express my gratitude to Miss. Sasha. I would drink some when I’m free."

Eric knew that Lucian said that without interest, but he was afraid that his words might enraged him. So he simply nodded and agreed.

"Eric, how did it go? Did Lucian taste my soup?" The moment Eric walked out of the office, Sasha had been waiting at the door. She quickly walked up to him and asked anxiously about the result.

Then he sighed and shook his head. "Mr. Lucian asked me to express his gratitude to you on his behalf." He let out a deep breath, as Lucian didn't have enough sleep or even eat properly every day due to the course of his busy work.

"So, Lucian did not bother to have a taste?" Sasha opened her eyes wide. She was shocked for some time, and afterward angrily stated, "Everything was Amelia's fault! She was really an attention seeker from the start. She humiliated Lucian!"

"Miss Sasha, this has nothing to do with Mrs. Amelia. Besides, you're fully aware about the situation of the Zhan Group." Eric was also confused about Amelia's decision, but he still tried to protect her name.

With a displeased look on her face, Sasha retorted, "Lucian would have been mine if it weren't for Amelia's appearance. Lucian and I are meant to be together!"

With a frown on his face, he was worried that Lucian might hear those insensitive words. He immediately changed the subject. "Miss Sasha, I'm going to take a file for the CEO. I'm leaving now."

After Eric left, Sasha stared at the door of the office and smiled enthusiastically, "Amelia has finally given up her seat and left. My chance for the throne has finally came."

In the evening, Amelia received a call from Courtney, which informed her that she had dinner with Lucian.

"You didn't tell him, did you?" Amelia asked nervously over the phone as she felt chills going down her spine.

"I have promised you to keep it a secret. I would not break my own words." After saying that, Courtney sighed and added, "Usually, Lucian was a very high spirited and healthy man. I felt so sorry for him when I saw him earlier."

Amelia's heart missed a beat and asked worriedly, "How was he? What's going on with him?"

Her tone was brimming with eagerness. She was nearly out of breath.

"Although he has mustache and masculine taste, his eyes were drained, his tone was cold and uninterested, which wasn't relaxed as usual. He did not mention anything about you during the dinner, but I have a faint feeling that he needed to know your whereabouts. However, he was afraid of touching anything, so he intentionally avoided it," Courtney said on the other line.

"Courtney, I'm very confused about the right thing to do. What should I do?" Her voice suddenly became filled with sadness, with a sense of helplessness and anxiety.

"If you still love him, come back to him and face this problem together," Courtney replied at the other end of the phone without thinking of the words that escaped her mouth.

If the situation was not complicated as it was, Amelia would agree. But the Zhan Group was her concern.

"He would get used to it when time passes by. My name would not even cross his mind." In her perception, time was the best way to cure his pain. When Lucian got used to her absence, everything would get better and better.

"But your leaving did not change the situation of the Zhan Group. Instead, you only further destroyed Lucian's fighting capacity. You are source of his strength," Courtney replied.

In her mind, Amelia didn't expect that Lucian would be so hard-headed to refuse the help of the An Group.

The reason why she signed the divorce agreement was because she thought this was the best way to help Lucian. After divorce, she hoped that he could agree to the request of the An Group and help the Zhan Group get through the crisis.

"Courtney, we can see clearly which is more important. For Lucian, the business of the Zhan Group was the result of his hard work. I never wanted him to see his achievements falling in front of his own eyes," she said. Of course, she was not so great as to determine the life and death of the Zhan Group, but why didn't she grasp this glimmer of hope as there would be a slim chance for her now?

"Amelia, you are destroying yourself." Courtney's heart felt sorry for her.

"Lucian treated me sincerely, so it was all worth it. This was the least I can do for him," Amelia said in a firm tone, she composed herself to avoid sad emotions.

On the other side of the phone, Courtney remained silent for a long time before she said, "I will support you whatever decision you make, but you should love yourself a little. Don't lose yourself in the process of loving someone so much."

Hearing that Courtney intentionally said loudly for her good mood, Amelia felt warm in her heart.

After being cheated by Jasper, Amelia met Lucian, which was undoubtedly a jackpot in a lottery. She thought the bonus would be able to buy her happiness for the rest of her life, to live a safe and a carefree life. However, she did not expect that their peaceful lives would be broken by a sudden bolt out of the blue.

The next morning Amelia was lying in her bed, suddenly her phone rang which awakened her. Then, she picked up her phone and saw a text message from Courtney.
