"Of course... Not!" Amelia exclaimed. Upon seeing Lucian's stressed out face, Amelia couldn't help herself from laughing and even teased him. "Maybe we could make these letters into a family heirloom. When Mark grows up and finally has his first crush, these letters could definitely help him chase after her!"
Amelia still couldn't contain her happiness. Lucian had no other choice but to roll his eyes at her. Amelia still proceeded with her jokes so Lucian finally snapped and said, "These are not love letters."
They were clearly just ordinary letters. However, even if they weren't love letters, it was a hundred times more important to Lucian.
After all, the words written on those letters gave Lucian the sunshine he needed to get through the harshness of his youth.
"Those aren't love letters? So, what are they?" Amelia curiously asked. Amelia was left confused as to why Lucian collected mere letters from his youth.
Lucian answered her in a short and concise manner. "It's a story about a girl and a boy trying to redeem what they once had."
"Redemption?" murmured Amelia who was suddenly in a daze. She saw the smile on Lucian's face while he was speaking. It made her feel sad and dejected. Her thoughts quickly jumped to conclusions so she exclaimed in a jealous voice, "Then why don't you marry her?"
It wasn't difficult to see that Amelia was suddenly in a bad mood. Lucian couldn't help but laugh at her reaction and teasingly said, "Haven't we agreed not to have any argument about this topic?"
Lucian didn't want Amelia to find any loopholes in his words, so he didn't dare to say another word to her. However, it might just make Amelia misunderstand more things.
Amelia quickly replied in a serious tone, "I'm not angry."
Lucian approached Amelia and stopped when he was just inches from her. He as
Amelia apologetically lowered her head and responded, "Don't worry about me. Mark has been good these days."
As for the dark circles under her eyes, it was because of her fight with Lucian for the past two days. Although Amelia now had slept well, the dark circles were still visible because of too much stress. In addition to this, she wasn't wearing any makeup so anyone could quickly see that something was wrong at first glance.
"Did Lucian do something to piss you off?" Nicholas asked with a concerned look on his face, trying to look for some clues on Amelia's expressions.
Amelia quickly shook her head and denied his assumption. "Dad, Lucian and I get along very well."
"That's good, it will definitely be easier for the both of you if you get along just fine," Nicholas advised.
Amelia didn't say anything and just merely nodded her head.
After lunch, Fannie came back to the mansion. She saw Amelia and asked her with a smile on her face, "When did you come here, Amelia?"
It was quite difficult for Amelia to get used to her new attitude, but she soon adapted as usual. She quickly answered in return, "Before lunch. Have you already had lunch, Mom?"
Nicholas told Amelia that Fannie went out to play Mahjong and that she would come back home after dinner, so he didn't wait for her for lunch.
Fannie nodded her head and glanced at Mark who was in Nicholas's arms. She smiled and walked over to her grandson and said, "Come here, let grandma give you a hug."
"Take off your necklace and ring first, I don't want you hurting my grandson," Nicholas said in disgust while he looked at Fannie's sparkling jewelries in front of him.
With an embarrassed expression on Fannie's face, she exclaimed, "Isn't Mark wearing clothes? I'm not the horrible grandmother you think I am. I won't accidentally hurt him."
