Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 58 Ended Up With Acute Gastroenteritis

Just as she was left wondering, her phone suddenly buzzed. It was a message from an unknown number. It read, "Amelia, don't worry. Lucian's with me."

'Amelia...' For some reason, it sounded like Sasha.

At that moment, Amelia felt as if she'd been punched right in the gut. Her heart twisted in pain as she felt her entire body go numb.

Her hand was trembling as she held her phone. Standing alone in the room, she was at a loss.

Suddenly, her stomach started grumbling—she was hungry already. Since Lucian wasn't around, she wasn't really in the mood to cook so she dragged herself upstairs to take a nap. She figured that was the only way to make herself feel better.

She slept through the entire night.

Initially, she thought she'd have a hard time falling asleep or she'd wake up around midnight. However, that wasn't what happened—she ended up sleeping until dawn.

Since the holidays were over, she had to go to work again. When she woke up, she washed her face and rinsed her mouth. Grabbing a bottle of milk and a piece of toast, she headed out.

Although there was still some time before work, Amelia decided she didn't want to drive the flashy car Lucian had given her. She then intended to walk to the bus stop and just take a bus going to work.

It rained the entire last night and that morning, the sky was grey and foggy. It was a cold winter morning so the roads were slippery.

It was seven in the morning and it took almost half an hour to get to the bus stop. If she walked fast enough, she could get there in 20 minutes. The bus ride going to the Zhan Group only took about 10 minutes.

With that, she figured she still had enough time.

Since she was going to work, she had no choice but to wear high heels. Even though the heels she wore weren't that high, she still found it difficult to walk as she wasn't used to wearing heels in the first place.

She lost her balance all the way. It took her totally half an hour to get to the bus station. The moment she got on the bus, her restless mind gradually calmed down.

Beads of sweat were starting to form on her forehead. When she sat on the bus, she immediately felt a sharp, shooting pain in her stomach.

"Are you okay, miss?" the girl sitting next to her asked worriedly upon seeing the pained look on Amelia's face.

Amelia shook her head and said nothing.

She tried her best to endure the pain throughout the whole ride. It wasn't until she got off at the gate of the Zhan Group that she got on her knees from the pain.

She knew this wasn't car sickness as she didn't really feel like vomiting. It was just a sharp, shooting pain in her stomach.

She still had about ten minutes left before she work so she took a deep breath and forced herself to stand up. Then she slowly walked towards the gate.
