Chapter 78 Still Unable To Be Admitted

Those honest words were more touching than the announcement made in the church.

Lucian had told Amelia of his whereabouts after work two days ago when they went down the mountain.

Back then, he had prepared everything before going. But who knew Sasha would propose to participate in the worship with him? She knew it was Fiona's death anniversary. He had reluctantly agreed because he didn't want her to stay in the office. Although he refused to go with Sasha after work.

Sasha had said those words to ignite jealousy in Amelia's heart. Who could have thought that Sasha wanted Amelia and Lucian to fight?

The couple got in the car. Lucian turned toward Amelia and gazed at her affectionately. "Amelia, use your brain from now on." His voice carried a hint of love.

Amelia nodded. "I won't be fooled the next time." Now that Amelia had been fooled twice, she was too scared to believe in Sasha's words.

Lucian turned to focus on the road with a smile on his face. "I wouldn't have known how much my wife cared about me if it weren't for Sasha." He was pleased. The distressing event that happened yesterday was forgotten.

"Lucian, can you promise me something?" She decided to reveal her heart to him when he was in a good mood.

"Last night, you picked me from the bar already. You don't have to ask me like this." Lucian acted like he knew what Amelia was going to say.

She hesitated before opening her mouth. She knew that the name "Jonny" was a taboo for Lucian. Still, she had to make it clear to avoid future quarrels because of that name.

"Jonny and I are just friend

ucian cast an approving look at Amelia.

Amelia's cheeks turned red, and she looked down in embarrassment. "I can cook only a few dishes."

She rushed to the kitchen, while Lucian and Nicholas went upstairs. Amelia didn't see Fannie, and Nicholas didn't mention her. Even Lucian didn't bother talking about Fannie. Amelia shrugged off Fannie's thoughts and went into the kitchen, asking the servants to help her. In a few hours, her dishes were ready. Just as Amelia placed a bowl on the table, she heard a familiar voice. "Wow, we have so much food today!"

Fannie threw her bag toward a servant. Her smiling face turned dark when she saw Amelia. She snorted coldly, took off her cape, and walked upstairs, ignoring everyone in the room.

Her hate was so apparent that even Amelia became immune to it.

A few minutes later, Lucian and his father came downstairs. Seeing the dishes on the table, Nicholas looked up. "Lunch is ready, Fannie."

Fannie walked downstairs at a slow pace, staring coldly at Amelia. "How disappointing it must be to have me among your family members!"

"Don't talk nonsense in front of the kids!" Nicholas scolded Fannie angrily.

Fannie ignored Nicholas and looked at Lucian. "Lucian, why did you let an outsider enter the kitchen?"

Her voice carried a hint of anger, deliberately glaring at Amelia.

Lucian looked at Fannie calmly and said, "Amelia is your daughter-in-law, not an outsider."

Fannie burst out laughing at that. "How funny! Last time you didn't care if we had accepted her or not. But now, you are calling her my legal daughter-in-law!"
