Chapter 286 I Refuse To Speak To Her

Amelia suddenly heard a rattling noise from the living room and she turned around to see Lucian standing there.

She felt a sense of joy the moment she realized that Lucian was back. However, before she was even able to greet him, Sasha dashed toward him and charmingly greeted, "Lucian, you're back! Have you eaten already?"

However, the moment he arrived, Lucian's eyes were glued towards Amelia. While he was caught in a daze of her stunning beauty, he completely disregarded Sasha.

"Hurry up and go, Mrs. Amelia. You're the one he wants to see!" Amelia stood completely still as she stared blankly at him. Lily noticed this and encouraged her by nudging her from behind with a happy look on her face.

Knowing that Lily had done this out of care, Amelia turned to face Lily and smiled, shaking her head with amusement.

When Amelia turned around to look forward, Lucian was already standing in front of her. He had that familiar tenderness in his eyes when he said, "Have you had dinner?"

Amelia nodded and said, "I'm surprised you didn't drink at the dinner party."

"Did my wife just compliment me?" The enamored couple teased each other, as if they were the only people there.

When Lily saw how well Lucian and Amelia were getting along, she couldn't stop grinning from ear to ear, as she carried on washing dishes with a sense of relief in her heart.

Sasha, however, was teeming with jealousy and watching the intimacy between the couple felt like a torture she couldn't get out of.

She couldn't bear the thought of watching Lucian and Amelia showing their affection towards each other, but she couldn't bear to disappoint Lucian even more. After all, he was the one who had asked her to stay at SJ Garden.

"So, Lucian, you're going to ask me whether I've had dinner or not?" Sasha's words bled with resentment, as she walked towards him.

Lucian closed his eyes and sighed in dismay. Despite having lost his patience, he responded in a calm and restrained tone, "Well, when I heard Amelia's

nued to hand Sasha the bandages when she noticed Lucian's compromising face.

Just from a glance, she could already tell that Lucian was forced to endure Sasha's neediness and he didn't want to even be near her.

However, Sasha stared at Amelia's eyes and couldn't hide the smug look on her face as if she had won the game.

All the while, Lucian tried his best to push her away like he was trying to detach a strange creature away from him.

"Ah! It hurts!" Sasha grumbled with an upset look on her face and said, "Lucian, you're hurting me!"

However, the man was completely exasperated at this point and the anger was clear in his eyes because he barely grabbed her arm.

Out of everyone, Lily was clearly the most enraged about what she was seeing and she snapped, "Shame on you, Sasha. Shame on you! I've never seen a woman act so shameless and disgracefully as you have just showed me this morning!"

Amelia walked towards Sasha to tend to her finger without uttering a single word on what was going on. Keeping a calm and expressionless face, she opened the box and said, "Sasha, please show me the cut."

She hoped that now the woman would take her hand off of Lucian.

"Mrs. Amelia, how could you do this to yourself? Let me take care of this!" Lily quickly snatched the swab and ointment from Amelia's hand before urging her to sit next to Lucian.

Clearly frightened by the idea that Lily was going to treat her wound, Sasha kept quiet throughout the whole ordeal. She knew well that Lily wasn't fond of her and angering her would only do her more harm than good.

"Miss Sasha, please keep calm and don't act like a baby. This won't hurt at all." Lily already knew how Sasha would react while treating her wound, so she made it a point to tell her beforehand so she wouldn't have to watch her whine throughout.

Unbeknownst to her, Sasha seemed to have made a vigorous enemy. The mere sight of Lily now gave her a fright, but Sasha decided to keep her thoughts and words on the matter to herself.
