Since She Met Lucian

‘What an exaggeration!’ Amelia thought to herself. Amelia was so embarrassed that she just wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it. In an attempt to conceal her embarrassment, she put food into Courtney's bowl and urged her to eat quickly.

"You're right," Lucian agreed with Courtney, smiling.

This wasn't to say that Amelia refused to accept the compliments. She just couldn't handle it in front of Lucian. She always blushed which was embarrassing. On the inside though, her heart was jumping in joy.

"By the way, Lucian, I have a question for you and it's pretty straightforward." Courtney suddenly became serious, raising her red wine glass.

Amelia couldn't help but feel scared at what Courtney was going to say.

"Go ahead. I'll tell you what I know." Lucian also raised his glass.

"Good. Cheers!" Courtney drank all the wine in her glass in one gulp. Then she flashed Amelia a mysterious smile before saying, "I heard from Amelia that you two... That you two don't have a close relationship yet."

Courtney thought that she'd get some courage if she downed all her wine but it didn't work as well as she thought it would.

Amelia immediately knew what Courtney meant. Her face flushing, she hurriedly chimed in, "What are you talking about? I bet it's just the wine talking."

Courtney wasn't as hesitant now. She stared at Amelia and added, "You really are an idiot. If I don't step in to help you, you wouldn't do anything!"

Amelia was so embarrassed as she secretly shot Lucian a glance. She saw that he was smiling and seemed to be very pleased.

Since they were sitting next to each other, it was hard to make out the look on his face besides his smile.

"I made an effort to cook all these dishes and yet you aren't even eating! You're just talking!" She felt a little flustered. She put more food into Lucian's bowl in an attempt to steer away the conversation to something else.

"Lucian, I know it's none of my business and I shouldn't be interfering but Amelia was with that jerk for five years. She hasn't been intimate with anyone except for holding hands." Courtney continued to sell Amelia as if she was a product to be sold at the market!

Amelia was completely embarrassed. She put down her chopsticks and sighed.

Just last night, she and Lucian... Even just the mere thought of it turned Amelia's cheeks into a deep pink hue.

"I know." He smiled broadly.

"You know?" Courtney was surprised. She pointed at Amelia whose face was red and asked, "You've already..."
