Chapter 47 The Brave Confession Of Amelia

Amelia frowned when Lucian emptied the fifth bottle of beer. On the table, she could see two more dozens of German beer that were enough to make Lucian drunk.

She glared at him in anger and said, "Lucian, you don't have to take it out on yourself. Just vent your anger on me."

Lucian narrowed his cold eyes at her. "Do you feel bad when I treat myself like this?"

Smiling bitterly, he didn’t even try to hide the self-deception in the question.

Countless women were chasing him, but he had eyes only for Amelia. The fact that she not only refused his kindness but also lied, hurt him deeply.

He had hated people who lied to him because of what happened twenty years ago.

Even though Amelia was stunned and silent on the surface, her heart was in turmoil. She felt sorry and distressed.

She squatted with tears in her eyes. "Can you just stop drinking?" Amelia wanted to admit her mistake, but she was afraid of infuriating him.

She knew that even though she would explain with her soft and trembling voice, his steeled heart wouldn’t feel a thing.

Lucian could forgive a person for any sin except for lies.

"Don't you have to explain yourself?" Lucian squinted his red eyes.

Amelia’s heart ached when her legitimate husband used such an interrogating tone to address her.

"Will you believe me?" She looked up at him, seeing through Lucian's mind.

His blood boiled after hearing her voice. "You're free to do anything,

let go of her chin, chuckling coldly.

Amelia saw through the bitterness in Lucian’s heart and lowered her head. She knew he was depressed, and Amelia didn’t mean to make things difficult for him. Quietly, she walked out of the room.

Lucian’s smile faded, and he punched the wall with all his power. He regretted his indifferent attitude toward her. He wanted to take hold of her, but at the same time, he hesitated. These complicated emotions made him go crazy.

His anger had forced Amelia to open her heart to him. Lucian thought there wasn’t a difference between him and a robber.

Back then, he got married in the hope of taking charge of his own life ahead. If Lucian could win her heart in such a dominating way, he would be able to take charge of her life.

He was so fierce with her because he wanted Amelia to think clearly.

After returning to her room, Amelia dropped herself on the soft bed as if she ran a marathon and was devoid of energy. She stared at the ceiling for a long time. Lucian’s cold words still swirled in her mind.

Nominally... These words extinguished all the flames in her heart.

She had to gather a lot of courage to express her feelings, but he rejected her due to anger.

Amelia didn't know why Lucian was so angry. Now when she finally said it, she didn’t feel so uncomfortable anymore.

She could only comfort herself by thinking that he was drunk and moody. Amelia should be considerate enough.
