Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 136 Refused To Get Back Together

"Nicholas, did you hear that? He's your son!" Fannie pointed at Lucian, trying to find some comfort from Nicholas.

"I already told you—they're all grown up now. You have to stop interfering with their lives." Instead of siding with Fannie, Nicholas stood up for Lucian.

"Yeah, Fannie. They're not kids anymore. We need to leave them alone and allow them to make their own decisions," Emma echoed. Emma sighed as she tried to comfort Fannie.

However, Fannie didn't seem to be convinced. In her mind, Emma and Nicholas were only siding with each other for Fiona's sake. Otherwise, they wouldn't be indulging Lucian like this.

"What? In the end, your daughter's going to be left alone and abandoned!" Fannie snapped, deliberately provoking Emma.

Fannie regularly had afternoon tea with Shelly in the Zhan mansion. Every now and then, Shelly would mention Emma and the hatefulness in her tone was undeniable. Fannie decided to use this against Emma—weaponizing her weakness in an attempt to drive a wedge between her and her daughter.

"I'll be sending the divorce papers over to you soon. Take care of yourself." Lucian had already learned from the doctor about Shelly's condition. The doctor said that it was nothing serious and she could be discharged after a week of rest.

Shelly's face turned pale. She couldn't believe this was happening and she refused to accept it. She cried, "Lucian, you can't do this to me! I'm never going to divorce you! Never!"

As soon as Lucian stepped out of the ward, he heaved a huge sigh of relief. With that, he called Jonny and rushed to the villa in the south of the city.

He wasn't a heartless person by any means but when it came to love, he had to prioritize himself—he wasn't going to sacrifice his entire life by not being with the woman he loved.

When he learned the truth from Edmund, whatever little guilt he felt immediately vanished. He felt absolutely no remorse for Shelly since this was all her doing anyway.

Meanwhile, Edmund was exerting all his efforts to stop Lucian from returning to the Zhan Group.

The front yard of the villa was filled with flowers. With nothing else to do, Amelia spent her time watering them and showering them with good words.

Since Courtney and Kent were back together, they talked a lot on the phone and they were very intimate. Not wanting to be a bother, Amelia decided to head downstairs.

As soon as she finished watering the flowers, she heard a car whistling at the gate. Out of instinct, she looked towards the gate and her eyes were immediately glued to the handsome person that was just getting out of the fancy car.

Lucian was exceptionally captivating—his shirt was snug at all the right places and even in his slightest movement, he was elegant and noble.

Every time Amelia saw Lucian, her heart would start pounding in her chest and this instance was no exception. Frozen in place, she lowered her head and averted her gaze.

"Are you watering the flowers?" Lucian asked in surprise when he saw Amelia holding a watering pot.

While she was happy to see him at first, this didn't last very long as her mind immediately went to the fact that Lucian was forcing her to stay here. Her face darkening, she snapped, "Well, since I have nothing to do, I have to entertain myself with whatever I can think of. Wouldn't you do the same?"
