Chapter 238 Sleep In Separate Bedrooms

However, for the sake of revenge and dragging Lucian down, Jonny’s words and behavior became extremely terrible.

"What happened to your neck?" The red mark on her neck caught Lucian’s attention, he pulled off her clothes. He narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What did he do to you? Tell me the truth!"

In that instance, Amelia was thoughtfully caressing her neck. She laid her eyes on him curiously and shook her head. "Well, he... Jonny did not do anything to me?"

As a matter of fact, Jonny wanted to get close to her, but she avoided the things to turn out his way.

Amelia’s heart trembled in fear whenever that scene crosses her mind.

However, Lucian fixed his eyes at the red mark on her neck. Staring at the mark felt like looking directly at the sun, his eyes were burning in pain.

"This is a hickey, isn’t it?" Lucian’s mind was consumed by irritation. He pulled Amelia up as those words came out of his mouth coldly.

After hearing the straightforward question, Amelia was stunned.

The truth was Jonny grabbed her hand and wanted to steal a kiss from her. With all her might she tried to avoid him, but unfortunately failed.

As she was trying to escape, her neck was rubbed by his hand, the friction caused the red mark on her neck.

The statement was too good to be true for Lucian. He did not believe any part of it, suspicion was evidently seen in his eyes.

Her face was deathly pale as if blood left her body. She explained for herself, "Lucian, it’s not what you think. These are really not hickeys..."

"Really? Then tell me about it!" Lucian snapped, his tone was intense. Obviously, Lucian ran out of patience.

Amelia’s heart skipped a beat. Then, she slumped to the ground weakly.

"

oom.

After eating breakfast, Lily came over and said, "Mrs. Amelia, Mr. Lucian just called and he said that..."

Suddenly, Lily seemed to hold back her words, her actions made Amelia more anxious.

Lily was a girl who had a sharp tongue. Yet, she could not speak fluently at this time, so she must be up to something unpleasant.

However, when the misunderstanding between her and Lucian crossed her mind, she understood what Lily was worried about.

"Just say it. Do not worry, I won't be mad." She flashed a light smile ready to accept her fate.

Lily took a deep breath, bit her lips, and replied bravely, "Mr. Lucian has restricted you from going out."

At that moment, she realized that Lucian grounded her freedom.

All of a sudden, Amelia thought Lucian's decision was ridiculous and irritating at the same time, but the curve on her lips never faded.

"It's fine with me. I haven't seen Mark for several days. I can take this opportunity to spend more time with him," she said. Amelia found an alibi to get over the pain. But the pain in her heart only disappeared temporarily. The moment it came back, it felt like a virus intoxicating her whole body.

"Mrs. Amelia, did Mr. Lucian restrict you because he was mad for what happened yesterday?" Lily frowned as she asked cautiously.

Although Amelia had a smile on her face, emptiness could be seen in her eyes and her thoughts were flying far away.

At the same moment, inside the CEO's office of the Zhan Group.

Lucian sat on the coach holding a file in his hand. As he looked at it, he frowned deeply.

"Did Jonny manage to take away our project at a high price?"

"Not only that, he also invited many senior shareholders to dinner," Eric honestly answered.
