Chapter 336 Lucian Gets Injured

"My son, I respect your every decision. You don't have to force yourself to accept anything you don't approve of just because you think you owe it to me as your father." Nicholas had always known that Lucian wasn't fond of business and that he only took over Zhan Group to ease his burden. Lucian couldn't let Nicholas run the company given his health condition.

"You've always known that I'm not your biological son, and yet you've treated me as one all these years. It's time I repay you. Moreover, as a husband and a father, I've learned that I can no longer put my interests above everyone else's. And should Mark want to take over Zhan Group years from now, I will make it easy for him to transition into the position."

Lucian blurted out his honest thoughts.

Nicholas was delighted to hear all this. He beamed as he addressed Amelia and Lucian, "Mark is already two years old. You should have a second child as soon as possible!"

"Dad... I don't think you still need me here so I'll be taking my leave." Amelia felt embarrassed so she wanted to escape the conversation.

But Lucian held on to Amelia and placed his arm around her shoulder so she couldn't step away. He then looked at Nicholas with a big smile and said, "It's all up to Amelia."

Without even realizing it, he put all the pressure of having another child on Amelia.

"Father, do you wish to continue living here?" Amelia blushed as she tried to change the topic.

Nicholas happily replied, "Since living here, I feel as though my health has been getting better eac

tal where Lucian was confined had advanced medical equipment. In more or less two weeks, Lucian was already allowed to go home.

Before he was discharged, the doctor gave them instructions to ensure his full recovery.

Amelia took them to heart and made a mental note of preparing a nutritious meal for Lucian once they got home.

"Mark hasn't seen me in two weeks. I wonder if he'd recognize me." Lucian deliberately made the conversation about Mark to not make Amelia worried.

Amelia only frowned. She wanted Lucian to stay in the hospital a few more days. She thought that the doctors and nurses would help him make a complete recovery.

"C'mon, Amelia! I'm fine. The doctor already determined I'm fit to go home." Lucian could read Amelia's thoughts before she could even say them. He put his hands around her and spoke in an innocent tone.

"Of course. Everyone obeys Mr. Lucian's orders," Amelia complained.

Lucian said gently, "Mrs. Amelia, I know how uncomfortable you feel in hospitals. I appreciate how much you care for me and I appreciate you watching over me these past weeks, but please listen to me, okay?"

Amelia was touched by his words but kept her silence for the rest of the ride home. It was only when they arrived at SJ Garden she gave her order as mistress of the house, "Go to the bedroom now and rest. You are not to get out of bed without my permission!"

Seeing her standing there pointing a finger at him made Lucian feel like a child. Obediently, he nodded and said, "Yes. I'll go to bed now and lie down."
