"Mrs. Amelia, I am sorry but Mr. Lucian has left..." Lucian would be home every day, but for the past two days, he had not shown up. This kind behavior was incredibly abnormal for him, and so it occurred to Lily that maybe there was some kind of conflict between him and Amelia. Because of that, she took the initiative to check on Amelia.
It was a cold winter morning. The thick fog still had not dissipated even at seven o'clock, and with a hazy surrounding, the daylight was slow to illuminate the city.
When Lucian was still tending to the company, he would wake up and go downstairs to have some breakfast at half past seven. 'Did he intentionally leave early because he didn't want to see me?' Amelia thought, already offended.
"Mrs. Amelia, you... look so tired," Lily said, full of concern. Amelia's skin indeed looked incredibly pale, and under her puffy eyes were huge dark circles. "I think it would be better for you if you rest."
Lily's concern warmed Amelia's heart. 'Even Lily noticed how unhappy I am,' she thought. However, when she remembered that Lucian had not checked up on her, she felt worse.
She opened her mouth to say something, but she was unable to because she started to feel uncomfortable.
In order to have enough milk for breastfeeding, Amelia had to eat healthier than usual at set times even if she didn't want to and was in a bad mood. She didn't want sacrifice Mark and his health just because of what she was feeling.
Just after lunch, Amelia received a phone call from Jonny.
"Amelia," he greeted from his end of the line. "I'm right in front SJ Garden right now. Do you want to go out? Take Mark and we'll go somewhere nice!" Jonny's voice was full of excitement.
Even if Amelia had no idea what Jonny was planning or where they were going, she j
women who are loved always look good. They rarely look stressed or anything like that,' she thought.
"Miss, we're looking for Lucian," Jonny stated in a cold voice.
It seemed that the girl didn't intend to let Amelia and Jonny in. She stood in the way of the door, her frown deep and her eyebrows furrowed. Reluctantly, she said, "Lucian isn't here. Don't come in!"
Jonny, who was towering above the girl, glanced around the room. After doing that, he said angrily, "I don't want to make a fuss out here, little missy. May I remind you that being a third party in other people's marriage is really shameful?"
"A... third party?" The girl couldn't help but laugh out loud. She glanced at Amelia with disdain and said with a weird sense of superiority, "If I hadn't lost connection with Lucian so suddenly, he wouldn't even think of getting together with this woman!"
The girl's tone was firm as she looked at Amelia with cold and sharp eyes.
The girl's blatant provocation wasn't working on Amelia, however. A faint smile was evident on her face because she somehow agreed with what the girl said.
Lucian treasured those letters so much that she was sure he was extremely concerned about the girl who wrote them.
What upset her most was that Lucian had said that it was a thing of the past and that she would be the one he would be with going forward. But what happened?
"I don't care about the things that happened between you and Lucian. Unfortunately, now, he has a wife and a child. You are disturbing their happiness. Behave yourself and have some sense of shame!" Jonny said angrily.
Hearing Jonny's words, the girl's face turned red, but she still smiled, not to be outdone. "So what? After reading the letters, Lucian still comes here to see me. He is crazy for me, mister."
