Since She Met Lucian
Chapter 81 The Happy Candlelight Dinner
Just as Lucian handed over the framed painting to Nicholas, Nicholas's smile widened to form a pleasant grin.
No matter who had made this painting, Nicholas was moved by Lucian's intention.
Lucian had always been aloof ever since Fiona passed away. He seldom returned to the Zhan mansion for the Spring Festival. Nicholas found it both surprising and pleasant to have dinner with his son.
Fannie stayed silent and just stood in one corner, glaring at Amelia at the same time.
"Mom, this is what Amelia chose for you." Lucian took the clothes from the bag and handed them to Fannie.
Fannie's expressions changed at that. Her face turned from slightly surprised to indifferent in a few seconds. She looked coldly at Amelia and said, "I have many clothes. I don't need these."
Amelia's heart trembled when Fannie rejected her gift bluntly. After recovering from her shock, she forced a smile.
Before she could open her mouth, Lucian interrupted, "All right." Lucian's expression was cold and icy when he stuffed the clothes back in the bag.
"It's the New Year's Eve, Fannie. Why can't you at least pretend to be happy?" Nicholas couldn't stand still after seeing Fannie's behavior. Seriousness floated in his eyes when he gazed at her.
Fannie clutched her fist tightly and glared at Nicholas. She took multiple breaths to suppress her anger. "Do I have to grin all the time just to make you happy?"
Nicholas was speechless and sighed deeply.
Fannie ruined the serene atmosphere between Lucian and his father.
Lucian ignored Fannie and walked toward Amelia. He held her hand gently and whispered soothingly, "It's okay."
Amelia's lips stretched to form a faint smile. Her heart didn't have a trace of anger or distress anymore. She had expected Fannie to behave like that anyway.
After eating, both Nicholas and Lucian went to the study while Amelia waited in the living room.
Fannie was calmly staring at the cup in her hand, and she sipped it again. Fannie seemed calm on the surface. She didn't even gaze at Amelia with her displeased expressions. Amelia glanced at the woman and shifted uneasily on her seat as if she wanted to say something. She opened her mouth, but nothing came out. What if she ended up annoying Fannie again? The silence made her feel even more awkward.
"I know Lucian and his father like you already, but I won't. And don't worry, I won't accept you for the rest of my life," Fannie said coldly.
Those words made Amelia's heart feel suffocated. She averted her eyes and looked down.
Before silence between them could become even more awkward, Lucian walked downstairs and took hold of Amelia's hand. He didn't even glance at Fannie and said, "Happy New Year, mom. We should go home."
