Chapter 50 To Do His Wife's Duty

"I will rather have lunch with my wife." Lucian put his arms around Amelia's shoulder.

Amelia's wide-opened eyes stared at Lucian in disbelief.

Sasha's face went pale, and she felt someone had deliberately twisted her heart until it was bleeding. She forced a smile and said in a weak voice, "We can hang out later."

A flush of guilt washed over Amelia's face when she glanced at Sasha.

"Who allowed you to touch my tea set?" Lucian's cold eyes squinted at Amelia.

That was when Amelia spotted the tea set on the table. She stood up without giving Lucian a second glance to clean up the mess.

Lucian frowned when he saw the flustered look on her face, and he realized that his tone was harsh. Just as he was about to help her, a loud sound entered his ears.

He looked around to see what happened, staring at the scene with wide eyes.

The teacup had fallen on the ground like a sack of potatoes. She reached to pick the broken pieces from the ground and grazed her fingers.

The blood was gushing out of her finger, but still, she was cleaning up the mess.

Lucian stared at her with a horrified expression and rushed over. "Why are you so careless?"

Amelia's heart jumped when she heard his voice filled with worry, eyes brimming with tears.

She had been silent for a long time. Lucian took hold of her injured hand and looked at her moistened eyes, frowning at her expressions. Did he hurt her again with his words? "Let's go to the infirmary."

Lucian presented her with a pensive look. "Weren't you thinking that you did a great job by rushing at the market? In the end, it was all for nothing."

"I'm sorry for your injury." A trace of guilt washed over her face, making her pout.

Seeing her sincerity, Lucian couldn't bring himself to tease her. "You know something?"

"What?" She looked at him with a confused gaze.

"Love isn't just about words, but living together with peace." Lucian stopped the car at the signal and turned his warm gaze toward Amelia.

Why did his words sound so familiar?

Her eyes sparkled as she recollected something from the past. "Did Darren tell you this?"

Darren had once asked her if she loved Lucian. Even though Amelia's reply came from her heart, Darren didn't seem to take it seriously.

Amelia's heart was beating fast because of his words. What he had said was the same thing that had been in her mind.

Lucian shook his head and flashed a charming smile at her. He approached her, placing his hand on her cheek. "I want to listen to my heart and live a peaceful life in marriage."

Did the two of them have similar views on marriage?
