Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 28 I Only Want You

A wry smile appeared on Sasha's face then she said sadly, "Lucian, I don't want anything else except for you."

With that, she stormed out of the room.

When Lucian arrived home, he found out that Amelia immediately went to the room where her mother's portrait was after reading the note he left her. Lily had said that she tried knocking on the door but Amelia wouldn't come out.

Lucian's heart sank and thought, 'When did this stupid woman become so obedient?'

He just wanted to remind her to not get so drunk again next time and she did exactly as he had asked.

Lucian walked straight to the door. Fortunately, he had a key with him. When he opened the door, he saw a thin figure with her back to him, staring at the portrait on the wall, murmuring.

"Mom, I'm sorry. I got so drunk last night. As my punishment, Lucian asked me to come here and atone for my sins. I think he just wanted to make fun of me but I don't mind coming here and talking to you."

He didn't mean to punish her. He just didn't want her to drink so much.

"Mom, you've probably seen Lucian before. He's handsome and kind. Sometimes, he can be sweet to me too. But what touched me the most was when he asked me to come here so you don't feel lonely..."

While she sounded casual, Lucian could tell that she was just pretending.

When he thought she was done speaking, he quickly made his way over to where she was. However, before he could even open his mouth, she continued, "I don't know what's wrong with me. I was so upset when his girlfriend came back. I know our relationship's just a fake but I was still so sad then. And it wasn't because I wasn't happy with the luxurious life he was giving me, it was just that I felt so uncomfortable..."

Amelia's voice sounded soft and youthful. Lucian couldn't help but find her adorable.

Soon, a grin slowly crept unto his face, an indescribably joy filling his heart.

"Really?" A cold voice suddenly came from behind Amelia.

It was Lucian's voice. What was he doing here?

She quickly turned around to check if it really was Lucian standing behind her. When she saw him, she slumped to the ground, a look of horror on her face. Did he just hear everything that she had said to Iris?

'Damn it! I was so caught up in my emotions that I didn't even notice that someone had opened the door and come in!'

"Lucian, do you have manners?" she cried anxiously.

He looked up at the black and white portrait hoisted up on the wall and whispered, "It's rude to yell in front of your mother, you know."

Amelia was speechless. She felt so ashamed that her face turned red, refusing to get up.

"Why? Are you embarrassed to see me here?" He bent over and pulled Amelia up.
