Chapter 187 Pretty Hot-Tempered

"Please forget the unpleasant memories, if only to enjoy the present happiness." Amelia thought that getting hurt was a natural part of growing up. Making mistakes or even failing relationships could help any girl become more mature and sensible.

"Lucian, I need to give Lily the day off so she can have time for her new relationship," said Amelia to Lucian when Lily went back to her room.

Lucian didn't want to object to anything that would make Lily happy, but he asked Amelia with worry, "I'll mostly be at the company throughout the day. If Lily goes out on a date, you'll be all alone here. Can you handle Mark by yourself?"

Amelia thought that Lucian was underestimating her. She quickly retorted, "Well, I do take care of him all the time because I'm still breast-feeding him."

The doorbell rang as soon as she finished her sentence.

"I'll get the door," Lucian said as he stood up.

Amelia lulled Mark to sleep after Lucian left. She was ascending the stairs with the baby in her arms when she heard a female voice coming from the hall.

Amelia had heard the voice before. She instantly recognized that it was Claire's.

Her heart jolted but she quickly calmed down. She continued taking the steps to the bedroom to deposit the sleeping Mark into his crib.

Amelia remembered everything Lucian had told her about Claire. She may have called her at SJ Garden to ask her point-blankly to divorce Lucian, but she only felt sorry for her after learning that she was suffering from sever

Claire managed to return Amelia's smile, only hers didn't look quite as happy and sincere. She said in a strange tone, "Your servant has a bad temper. I don't know how you can tolerate it!"

Amelia calmly replied, "Lily may have misunderstood you, but she's actually very kind and considerate to other people."

"No, I know what kind of person she is," Claire retorted.

"Claire, don't you want to see the letters? I have them all. I can show you upstairs," Lucian suggested. Not wishing to dwell on Lily, he thought of changing the subject.

"Great!" Claire clapped her hands happily like a child.

It was the first time Amelia saw Claire smiling sincerely. She felt happy for her in her heart.

"Amelia, come with us," Lucian reached out and tapped Amelia on the shoulder. He looked at her with tenderness and love.

Just as Amelia was about to say something, Claire stood up and said in a flirtatious tone, "Lucian, this is between us. I don't want others to know about our story."

Lucian's face fell. He looked at his wife with shame in his eyes.

But Amelia was more understanding than others would have been in the same situation. She only said, "Lucian, please go with Miss Claire. I have to feed Mark."

Amelia thought she understood how Claire had felt. And it's because she trusted Lucian that she knew she didn't have anything to worry about.

"Amelia..." Lucian suddenly called out to her.

Amelia turned her head and asked, "Why? What's wrong?"
