Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 10 She Is The Bridesmaid

"If you don't want to stay here anymore, we can leave," Lucian suggested calmly as he walked ahead of Amelia.

She didn't mean to refuse to help but she just couldn't stand Yolanda's arrogance anymore.

"Amelia?" Jasper walked in from the outside. Ignoring everyone's staring, he grabbed Amelia's hand and said, "May I have a word with you?"

All of a sudden, Jasper had grabbed her and before she could even break free, he was already pulling her away.

"Mr. Jasper, don't you think we should be more careful about what we do and say in public?" Lucian said coolly as he maintained his grip on Amelia's other hand.

Jasper looked a little embarrassed. He released Amelia's hand and bowed his head to apologize. "Sorry, Lucian. I forgot my manners. I was in a hurry."

"If you're here to ask my wife to be your fiancée's bridesmaid, you'd better save your energy. I just don't want my wife to be aggrieved anymore." Lucian was acting as if it was his responsibility to protect Amelia. But the irony was not lost on Amelia.

How could their real feelings be so deep?

As Jasper turned his attention back to Amelia, he begged, "Amelia, I know you hate me but the wedding's happening right now, could you just please set aside your personal feelings and come help out your sister?"

This was the first time that Jasper had ever begged her. It was ridiculous that he's begging her for the sake of another woman.

Amelia was obviously hurt by this but after giving it some thought, she finally decided to agree.

When Amelia nodded her head, Jasper was visibly thrilled. He grabbed Amelia's hands and said in a grateful tone, "Amelia, I knew you would say yes. You've always been so considerate."

It was difficult to find him sincere in his words.

Amelia looked toward Lucian who seemed indifferent and unbothered.

"Amelia, you don't have to look out for me. Plus, didn't I say I'd help you?" Lucian suddenly whispered in Amelia's ear.

She pressed her lips together before going to change into her purple bridesmaid dress. After which, she went to the wedding with Lucian by her side.
