Since She Met Lucian

The car left the rich and noble villa district and drove off to Amelia's rented apartment.

Amelia didn't really plan on going back to that place at all. Staying in that apartment, she would think of Jasper, which made her feel really sad. But she had no other choice. There was nowhere else for her to go.

Upon pulling up in front of the apartment complex, Amelia acted completely snobbish towards Lucian. "Mr. Lucian, my home is just in front of you. You can drop me off here," she said.

'We're only a couple by virtue of a contract. There's no need for him to actually pretend to be my husband and escort me all the way inside, ' she thought.

Lucian looked around and saw that there were no residential buildings around. "Our agreement says that I am your husband," he said to Amelia with a thoughtful smile on his face. "Perhaps, I should walk you to the door," he continued.

Amelia shook her head. "It's true that we made an agreement, but we really don't have to keep up with this husband and wife facade in private. Mr. Lucian, could you please give me some personal space?" Amelia spoke out.

Lucian glanced at Amelia and said, "You just broke up with your boyfriend. In case things get too hard, where should I find you then?"

Even though the way Lucian said this was calm and innocent, Amelia felt the words stab her deeply.

Arguing with Lucian made Amelia temporarily forget about her wounded heart. It was inevitable for her to feel uncomfortable. She suddenly raised her head and wanted to speak out, but instead her words were unable to come out of her mouth.

"What's wrong with you?" Lucian asked. He noticed that Amelia was looking out of the window with a blank gaze. Out of curiosity, he also looked at the direction at which Amelia was looking. Lucian found that Amelia was staring at a man and a woman hugging each other passionately.

"What a small world!" Amelia almost squeezed those words out of her teeth.

All of a sudden, Lucian felt that he figured out something about Amelia. He started the car, held the steering wheel, and made a turn.

"What are you doing?" Amelia asked, feeling anxious.

"Haven't you heard the saying 'out of sight, out of mind'?" Lucian asked in a cold tone. "You are now my wife. So, the SJ Garden is your home now," he said to Amelia.

For a while, Amelia was stunned. But when she stared at Lucian more, she felt warm in her heart.

For the past five years, Amelia had no place to go except the apartment. While the Mo family accommodated her, Yolanda's mother only saw her as a sand that couldn't be squeezed out. Yolanda bullied Amelia frequently, and that made Amelia wish she could just simply disappear. Later, she met Jasper and he rented that apartment for her. Because of that, she naively thought the relationship between them would strengthen and last. However, her love ended in a tragedy.

Remembering all of these made Lucian's words felt warm to Amelia.

"Amelia, I don't care who you love, but you have to listen to me!" Lucian said indifferently. Amelia just stared at Lucian without a single word from her, making Lucian frown and sigh deeply.
