"Mr. Lucian, please take Mrs. Amelia home first. I'll handle the rest," Eric, Lucian's assistant, offered. He had just arrived and kindly offered to help.
Lucian opened his thin lips and said coldly, "Teach him a lesson!"
With that, Lucian left with Amelia.
When they got on the car, Amelia felt less nervous. Since Lucian wasn't saying anything, she decided to do the same.
"You should ask Frank to drive you," Lucian said after a long pause.
She scratched the car the first time she drove it. While she wanted to refuse him, she knew she had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
"Sorry, I broke your car..." she said guiltily.
Your car... She always made sure to distinguish what was his and hers.
Lucian was inexplicably angry. He asked coldly, "You think just saying sorry is enough?" He was at a very important meeting when he found out that she was late. Worried, he called her to ask her what was going on. As expected, she was very uneasy.
He intended to pound on her a little more but he didn't expect that she'd be so bad at driving that she couldn't even run up a slope.
"I'll just pay for the repair fees, okay?" Sadly, her bank account was practically empty. That was all she could offer.
Lucian noticed how aggrieved Amelia was already. He didn't have the heart to continue making things difficult for her. "It's fine. You don't have to do that. Just make dinner tonight."
Upon giving it more thought, he concl
old friends.
Amelia flushed in response to this sudden friendliness.
"Sasha, we need to work," Lucian said seriously.
Sasha was surprised. Realizing that she was holding Amelia's hand, she let go of it immediately and held Lucian's arm. She said happily, "Lucian, I heard that the Zhan Group is recruiting new staff so I came here to visit."
Seeing them standing together intimately, Amelia had mixed feelings. She tried to look away so that she would feel better.
"You should go to the personnel department then for an interview." With that, he removed Sasha's grip in his arm and glanced at Amelia.
A cloud of embarrassment crept over Sasha's face. Smiling bashfully, she said, "I just heard that Amelia worked here. I came here to thank her for cooking porridge for me last time."
Sasha knew what kind of person Lucian was. She wouldn't dare piss him off so she changed the subject to Amelia.
Amelia was smart. She knew very well that Sasha came here for Lucian and not her. Otherwise, why else would she ask where Lucian was?
However, Amelia had no plans of bringing this up. She smiled shyly and said, "You're welcome."
"Well, you've already thanked her. You can leave now. We have work to do," Lucian said coldly. He grew upset upon glimpsing the tea set.
Sasha grabbed the opportunity to ask Lucian out. She put on a charming smile and said, "Hey, Lucian. It's almost lunch time. Would you like to have lunch with me?"
