Since She Met Lucian

For their lunch break that day, Amelia was planning to meet with Sasha. She was already on her way to Sasha when she stumbled upon something quite surprising.

A female colleague called out Kent's name and when Amelia turned to look at the person, the guy was the Kent that she knew.

"Kent, why didn't you clear it up with your girlfriend?" the female furiously asked.

'Isn't Courtney Kent's girlfriend?' Amelia thought to herself silently. Amelia believed that their conversation had something to do with Courtney, so she decided not to make herself known and secretly listen.

"Melissa, it's not that easy to convince my girlfriend with just a few words. What's more, my girlfriend and I have been together for so long. If I suddenly told her about it, she won't be able to handle it." Kent tried to calm Melissa down by grabbing her arms and speaking to her in a self-pitying tone.

"I don't care about that. You and I both know what happened that night better than anyone else. If you don't want to lose your reputation in the Zhan Group, you know what you should do!" Finishing those words, Melissa pushed Kent away and walked away with heavy steps. The sound of her heels could be heard even after she had been gone for a few minutes.

Amelia was stunned. Although she wasn't sure if what she just heard was as she guessed, she could definitely feel that there was something wrong with Kent and Courtney's relationship.

'Should I go and ask Kent to be sure? I guess right now is not a good time,' Amelia thought to herself.

While she was still hesitating, Kent went on his way downstairs. It seemed like he finally decided to chase after Melissa.

For a while, Amelia stood at the stairs in a daze. She then remembered her plan to meet Sasha so she quickly headed for the elevator. She decided then that she would visit Courtney after work.

"It can't be that, it's got to be something else!" She silently hoped that things weren't as bad as she thought.

As Amelia went on her way to Sasha, she remembered that Courtney had told her that Kent was in the Sales Department. The same department where Sasha was working at. If Sasha was a representative of the meeting on behalf of the department, she must be a very important person around here. When she finally reached the office, a few female colleagues were gathered together, watching a movie on their phones and discussing with each other cheerfully. When they saw Amelia came in, they all returned to their seats quickly, looking at her curiously.

Amelia did not expect that her arrival in the Sales Department would have such a reaction. She smiled at everyone and politely said, "I'm sorry to disturb you. Is Miss Sasha here?"

"Mrs. Amelia, Miss Sasha's hand got injured so she asked for a leave then went home," a tall female employee answered.

"Oh okay, thank you," Amelia replied. Amelia smiled graciously and was about to leave but then she remembered how the female employee called her just now. She felt embarrassed so she reminded them, "I am also an employee of the Zhan Group, so we are colleagues. You can just call me by my name."

Although Amelia kindly introduced herself, others thought she was giving them orders and taking advantage of the title "Mrs. Amelia". Moreover, they hadn't forgotten that it was she who accidentally burned Sasha's hand in their morning meeting. This was why the staff of the Sales Department had a lousy impression of her.

However, those female employees still pretended to be gracious with her. It was only when she left that they began to talk bad about her. Not one of them actually liked Amelia.
