Chapter 80 The Spring Festival

The main reason why Kent broke up with Courtney via text, was that because Melissa was with child.

"Don't you think our fates are so miserable? We've been played out by the same old trick!" Courtney sipped her coffee and laughed at Amelia. "It's so sweet!"

Amelia bit her ruby red lips while she was thinking about what to say to her.

"Don't try to comfort me. I have to thank that baby a little bit! I haven't had let them go too easily if it weren't for the baby's sake!" Courtney said irritably.

Amelia knew that Courtney was just being stubborn but deep inside, she had a soft heart, so she didn't try to comfort her. Instead, she casually proposed, "Do you want to go on a trip?"

"You'll go with me?" Courtney's eyes lit up with excitement. It seemed that she was really serious about this trip.

Amelia almost choked on her coffee.

Amelia couldn't say 'yes' immediately, she wanted to ask for Lucian's opinion first before making a decision. Instead, she said, "Let's put this aside up until we can decide which city we want to go to."

"Amelia, when my parents heard the news that I broke up with Kent, they didn't show any sympathy towards me. Instead, they said that the son of one of my father's friends just came back from his studies, and that we might have time to meet up for a proper introduction." Courtney rolled her eyes as if she couldn't stand her family's suggestion. But all of a sudden, her sadness washed out from her face.

Amelia added, "You might want to go see and meet him. He could just be your type." Amelia knew that it wasn't the right thing to say, but the mere thought of Courtney and Kent not getting back together made her wish th

's not that expensive, it looks pretty. I believe your mother will look so good in it."

Seeing the serious look on her face, Lucian told her, "The year-end bonus you got, you spent it on this dress. This is a very sincere and thoughtful gift. As for whether she likes it or not, it doesn't matter anymore. It's the thought that counts."

Perhaps it was during the Spring Festival that one could easily see the smiling faces of the pedestrians running all around the road. Amelia gazed on the colorful trees along the road, its branches and leaves moving in the breeze.

When she was just a child, she looked forward to the Spring Festival the most. Besides the new clothes and shoes, there was also a lot of lucky money that she received. Reminiscing this, Amelia felt her eyes tear up before a smile appeared on her face.

Time quickly flew by.

The moment they reached the Zhan mansion, Amelia suddenly felt immense joy of the Spring Festival. Red lanterns hung beneath the leaves, and red chiffon couplets decorated the entrance of the house. Darren stood in front of the gate, took Lucian's stuff with a bright smile and said in a cheerful voice, "Mr. Nicholas was so excited to know that they will be visited by you and Mrs. Amelia. He ordered the servants to prepare you something delectable."

During dinner, Nicholas told Amelia several times when she was eating that she was too thin and that she needed to eat more.

Amelia nervously lowered her head. Sitting opposite Fannie, Amelia's eyes always inadvertently met hers. During the meal, she was scared out of her wits.

Fortunately, Lucian kept adding food to her bowl, so she wouldn't need to be overly paranoid.
