Chapter 204 Why Do You Sell Them To Me

Amelia felt depressed after she heard what Yolanda had to say.

She heard from Lucian that the Mo family's house was sold to help pay off debts because of the incident with Vernon. She forgot to ask where they moved after the house was sold.

Fortunately, Yolanda left her phone number. Amelia planned to meet with Sophia because she was doubtful with the circumstances around Iris' death.

The CEO's office was located at the top floor of the Zhan Group building.

There were two knocks on the door and then Eric walked in through the door. "Sir, the CEO of the An Group, Mr. Jonny is here," Eric announced to Lucian who sat behind his desk, poring over some papers.

Lucian had planned to set aside some time to invite Jonny over. He never expected that Jonny would actually beat him to a meeting between them.

"Invite him in," Lucian replied in a soft voice.

The door opened and Jonny walked in. He wore a well-pressed beige suit that was tailored to his size.

The simple interior design and spacious office made employees feel relaxed while working in the offices of the Zhan Group. "I think I need to renovate my office," Jonny said with a broad smile on his face as he entered Lucian's office.

Lucian looked up from the pile of papers on his desk. He smiled and then asked, "Did you really come to visit just to see the interior of my office?"

Jonny laughed lightly and sat down. He playfully tapped at the sofa with his slender fingers and said in a congratulatory tone, "The businesses of the Zhan Group have made big progress recently. You must be in a very good mood!"

Lucian closed the documents in his hands. "Thank you for letting us get the

flirt with her. She always had a cold expression and avoided my friend. I thought that she worked there at that time, so I didn't pay much attention to her. Then I heard from my friends that her mother had just passed away and that she was doing it to survive. Then I decided to get in touch with her."

"Why does it sound to me like it was a romantic encounter for you?" Lucian asked. He immediately thought that it was a fateful encounter for Claire to meet Jonny. He was convinced that they made a good match. "I think you have feelings for Claire. Why not make the first step? Maybe I'd even forget that you sent her to stay with me."

"Since when have you become so heartless? In order to eliminate a rival in love, you'd sell these women to me?" Jonny complained like a child who lost to a game.

"Come on. The way you talked about Claire, how you met her and then her tragedy, it was different from the way you normally speak. Don't tell me that you haven't noticed that in yourself at all?" Lucian explained carefully. He sounded like he saw into Jonny's soul what Jonny himself failed to see.

Jonny thought about Lucian's words and had to admit that he did feel something different about Claire. But he knew that this feeling was more of a feeling of intense sympathy and it was not the same feeling as the one he had for Amelia. The only person that he cared about beyond mere sympathy was Amelia.

He gave it some thought and then turned to Lucian after some time. He found Lucian looking intently at him with a faint smile on his face. He couldn't help but smile back. "If you think this is for the best. After all, we have known each other for a long time."
