For some time, Amelia was quite touched when she heard about it from Courtney for the first time, but she didn't expect that it would now become a way to threaten her.
Amelia had to show Lucian that she really wanted to work there so she pleaded, "Two to six o'clock, then after that a fellow waitress should be enough to watch over the store. She will work with me on these shifts."
To put it bluntly, she was still distressed about the salary.
"We'll make an agreement in case you change your mind," Lucian reluctantly responded. In fact, he didn't feel comfortable with Amelia's decision to continue with her job. He was worried that she might overwork herself but still, he chose to do the thing that would bring Amelia happiness.
"It's a good bargain, you're indeed a businessman," Amelia complimented him. Amelia couldn't do anything but shake her head in distress due to Lucian's actions.
But the fact that he only did this because he cared for her made her happy, so she gladly signed their written agreement.
Amelia finally fulfilled her wish to work in the milk tea shop. It might seem very hard to work as a pregnant woman, but Lily would always cook very satisfying meals for her. Lucian even hired a nutrition expert to teach Lily how to cook meals for Amelia after she gave birth.
Amelia was deeply moved by all of the things that he had done for her. So she continued to work in the milk tea shop and would punctually get off duty at 6:00 pm.
Lucian would come and pick her up in person. Even though her life was simple, she was happy and content. If she was being honest, she couldn't ask for anything more.
Ever since Courtney had reconciled with Kent, she managed to buy the milk tea shop which she owned in the past. Courtney said their love came back to life again so she must get the shop
on. Since their relationship had been going so well, Courtney had even branded them as a comedy duo.
That weekend morning, Amelia got up and packed the gifts for Yolanda's baby. Then, she picked out a maternity dress with just a plain color from her wardrobe and looked at herself in front of the mirror for quite some time.
"What's wrong?" Lucian asked. He had just came out of the shower from his bath. He saw Amelia standing in front of the mirror with a concerned look on her face.
"My belly is getting bigger and bigger. No matter what I wear, I can't cover the fact that I'm pregnant," Amelia replied in a sorrowful voice. She pouted and felt very aggrieved as a mother.
"Are you worried that Yolanda and Sophia will notice that you're pregnant?" Lucian asked. He seemed to understand what Amelia was worried about.
"Even my father doesn't know that I'm pregnant yet. When they finally find out about it, they'll certainly be surprised," Amelia replied. She didn't know what she was truly upset about, but her face soon turned to a smile when she realized something. "It's a surprise for my father. I'm sure he'll truly be overjoyed when he finds out that he's going to become a grandfather soon."
"That's right, my silly wife. Always try to see things in a positive light," Lucian replied. When he saw her smile, Lucian felt relieved. He then held her in his arms and gave her a loving kiss.
Finally, it was time to meet with Amelia's family again. When they arrived at the MC Hotel, Lucian's car attracted many guests' attention since it was a limited edition.
Lucian helped Amelia out of the car. The way he acted like a gentleman caused ladies to scream, which made Jasper, who was greeting the guests, have a somewhat complicated feeling. After seeing Amelia's belly, his eyes were as deep as the mist.
