Chapter 32 Not A Confession

"Amelia, this is getting odd. Every time I ask you something, you don't answer it and you just change the topic!" Courtney seemed disappointed as she spoke.

"Well, then just don't..." Amelia's voice trailed off. She turned only to find in horror that Lucian was standing by the door. In utter shock, she raised her hand and covered her mouth.

Wasn't he supposed to be with Sasha taking care of her? What was he doing here?

"Amelia, I was supposed to tell you but we were playing around and I was out of breath and..." Courtney explained bashfully upon seeing the look on Amelia's face.

Amelia pursed her lips and immediately flushed when she remembered what she had been doing just now. 'Did Lucian see all of that? Was he turned off?' she thought to herself in a panic.

"Why didn't you answer your phone?" Lucian said in a cold voice. He sounded displeased with her.

Rendered speechless, Amelia wondered why he would even bring her to a date with his girlfriend in the first place. However, since Courtney was still standing by her side, she answered calmly, "I put my phone on silent mode so I didn't know that you were calling."

'She says she put her phone on silent mode but she was able to reject the calls?' he thought to himself.

Amelia opened her mouth and looked at him in disbelief. After a while, she quipped, "Don't be so full of yourself. I'd never like a playboy like you..."

'That wasn't even convincing at all,' she immediately thought afterward.

She indistinctly saw Lucian's lips curve into a smile as if he knew something she didn't.

The rest of their car ride was uneventful as neither of them spoke again. However, even when they arrived at the SJ Garden, Amelia was still uneasy.

"Mr. Lucian, Mrs. Amelia, you're back!" Lily took the bag Lucian was holding and then said to him carefully, "Mr. Lucian, your father called. He said to tell you to visit the Zhan mansion tonight along with Mrs. Amelia. Or else..."

Amelia had just slipped out of her shoes when she heard this. Narrowing her eyes, Fannie's face instantly appeared in her mind.

"Or else, they're coming here themselves," Lucian finished for Lily.

Lily nodded silently. She was still a bit traumatized from how angry Fannie was over the phone.
