Chapter 180 Don't Pretend To Be Miserable In Front Of Me

"It's nothing. You can go in first," Lucian told the girl in a very gentle voice as he comforted her. "Go in and dry your hair or you might catch a cold."

Watching this scene made Amelia's heart freeze. She felt as if all the energy in her body had been drained. Staring helplessly at Lucian, she wished that all of this was just a bad dream.

She knew that Lucian loved her, and yet how could he ignore her like that? How could he be so gentle towards another girl?

"Mom, this has nothing to do with you," Lucian told Fannie coldly after the girl left.

Fannie looked as if she had more to say, but seeing the angry expression on Lucian's face was enough to change her mind. She didn't want to provoke her son. Fannie turned to Shelly and said, "Shelly, it looks like Lucian already knows about this shameful affair. He probably knows what he's doing. Let's go back."

"But he's with another woman!" cried Shelly.

"Let's go!"

Shelly was unwilling to leave, but Fannie had already dragged her away before she could protest some more.

The corridor fell silent when they left.

Amelia felt like her heart had been hollowed out. She stared at the floor as she tried to understand the mess in her own head.

She desperately waited for Lucian to say something, anything. She longed to hear him assure her that there had been a mistake or a misunderstanding.

he wanted to feel closer to him.

She wanted to stay in his arms for a long time, but before she could feel comfortable, Lucian pushed her away. Amelia fell forcefully on the ground.

She almost screamed in pain, but her husband held her down and bent over her, his deep eyes gleaming under the dim light.

"Don't pretend to be miserable in front of me. It doesn't suit you at all," Lucian said coldly.

Amelia didn't know if he was talking to her or imagining a conversation with another girl. But hearing those words made her feel more in despair.

This man felt strange and different from Lucian, and this made Amelia feel scared.

She felt as if a cold gust of wind brushed through her skin as he acted indifferently towards her.

After leaving Lucian in the shower, Amelia took Mark to the guest room. She didn't want the drunken Lucian to hurt their baby by accident.

It was late when Amelia fell asleep with Mark in her arms. But when she had woken up, she found her baby missing. She felt nervous, feeling that she had been a careless mother.

"Mrs. Amelia, I'll take care of young master. Please go back to sleep," Lily told her as soon as she saw Amelia opening the door to the guest bedroom.

She walked to Mark's crib and watched him as he slept.

When she remembered what happened with Lucian that night, she felt a pang of pain in her heart.
