Since She Met Lucian

After Mrs. Chen left the kitchen, Amelia took a deep breath, regained her composure and focused on cooking.

"Amelia, I have to admit that I was surprised that you could cook so well at such a young age." Mrs. Chen complimented Amelia’s cooking when she smelled the flavorful aroma of the dishes.

In that moment, Amelia got an excessive amount of praise for her cooking. However, in the back of her mind she couldn’t help thinking about Lucian.

Her heart wondered if he had eaten or not...

"Mr. Lucian, you haven’t eaten your breakfast. Smoking would have a negative effect on your health." Pushing the lunch box forward, Eric whispered in Lucian’s ear, "Miss Sasha prepared this soup for you. Would you like to have some first?"

Showing no interest, Lucian did not even raised his head to look at the lunch box. He continued dealing with the documents then words escaped his mouth, "Just express my gratitude to Miss. Sasha. I would drink some when I’m free."

Eric knew that Lucian said that without interest, but he was afraid that his words might enraged him. So he simply nodded and agreed.

"Eric, how did it go? Did Lucian taste my soup?" The moment Eric walked out of the office, Sasha had been waiting at the door. She quickly walked up to him and asked anxiously about the result.

Then he sighed and shook his head. "Mr. Lucian asked me to express his gratitude to you on his behalf." He let out a deep breath, as Lucian didn't have enough sleep or even eat properly every day due to the course of his busy work.

"So, Lucian did not bother to have a taste?" Sasha opened her eyes wide. She was shocked for some time, and afterward angrily stated, "Everything was Amelia's fault! She was really an attention seeker from the start. She humiliated Lucian!"

"Miss Sasha, this has nothing to do with Mrs. Amelia. Besides, you're fully aware about the situation of the Zhan Group." Eric was also confused about Amelia's decision, but he still tried to protect her name.

With a displeased look on her face, Sasha retorted, "Lucian would have been mine if it weren't for Amelia's appearance. Lucian and I are meant to be together!"

With a frown on his face, he was worried that Lucian might hear those insensitive words. He immediately changed the subject. "Miss Sasha, I'm going to take a file for the CEO. I'm leaving now."

After Eric left, Sasha stared at the door of the office and smiled enthusiastically, "Amelia has finally given up her seat and left. My chance for the throne has finally came."

In the evening, Amelia received a call from Courtney, which informed her that she had dinner with Lucian.

"You didn't tell him, did you?" Amelia asked nervously over the phone as she felt chills going down her spine.

"I have promised you to keep it a secret. I would not break my own words." After saying that, Courtney sighed and added, "Usually, Lucian was a very high spirited and healthy man. I felt so sorry for him when I saw him earlier."
